    • “I'm looking forward to all the funny characters and quests - that's what makes this game fun.”
    • “The new enemy types were nice, and shifting buffs to work on a 24hr cooldown rather than expiring at midnight was nice, though an auto-buff system would be appreciated.”
    • “I don't mind recycling in terms of the UI and overall gameplay elements, but not only is this the third time with many of the same quest objectives, plot beats, and locations, it's also the worst iteration of each.”
