The story in the game is generally well-received, with many players appreciating its simplicity and engaging plot that builds on the previous installment. While the main storyline lasts around 5-6 hours, players noted that the post-story quests can be confusing and require careful navigation, as they often involve backtracking and completing tasks in a specific order. Overall, the narrative is considered an improvement over the first game, with enjoyable music and dialogue that resonate with fans of the franchise.
“A very nice game with lots of cool story, and it gets very interesting.”
“The music and dialogue are wonderful; I was laughing plenty of times during the story.”
“The game is still fun and I love how they got the entire G5 Mane Six right and that of Queen Haven, making the story lore appropriate for its universe.”
“The side quests after the main game are a bit confusing if you don't have a good approach, which is why I have written a Steam guide on the subject.”
“Speaking about reusing, the plot of the game is recycled from one of the series episodes.”
“There are random flashbacks to Maretime Bay that add nothing to the story and even confuse me later on.”
