But while combat is fun the story is so....boring, really.

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
Despite the character development and plot twist, I feel like I've been pretty much spending most of the time freaking time leaping with very little progression on main story (I mean the entire Calvard arc itself) Falcom kinda trolled but its understandable because they set a specific year which is 1209 for a catastrophe to happen and yet doesn't want to revealed it in this sequel but on the next sequel Kuro no Kiseki 3 which is the final sequel for Calvard arc from what I heard.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
The OST has some good tracks but also some mediocre ones so in that sense it's perhaps not quite what we've seen in the past from LoH game but it's still of sufficient quality overall.
