Yeah ignoring the context (12 years for a sequel, overhyping from the lead dev, etc) this game is a huge disappointment. Even then I'm still having a ton of fun with it and the only reason I haven't played more is because I was actually busy with work today. But once I fully pimp out my pawn with fully upgraded gear and beat the game, I'm taking a break until the DLC. And if DD3 is announced a few years down the road I'm pretty much gonna have zero hype for it until I see it deliver with my own eyes.

Feels like gaming devs in general have gotten lazier. The biggest offender by far is Pokemon with it being the highest grossing media franchise period, and the all GameFreak does is go through the paces to shit out something mediocre every few years. Makes me appreciate something like Elden Ring a lot more because it was a great application of the Souls formula where they clearly tried to improve on it even if it did fall flat in a few aspects. This game could have been DLC for the first game and you would probably not be able to tell the difference. Gamers wanted more of the first one, and they took that 100% literal by doing nothing new. All of the tech advances we've had in the last decade and it seems like most games are still stuck in 2010 mode rent muh pawn
