A real upgrade from storm 1. Simpler map, everything is at few jogs away (even if it is a few slow jogs away) - battles, shops, points of interest, much better than the crowded and clunky hidden leaf from storm 1. Much more and much better tutorials, scenematics good as always and better even! Its just a shame that collecting items gets boring, it could be automatic or not have to pause your walk to do it. Otherwise, its great to be able to skip cutscenes (this should be for dialogs too!) specially if your already familiar with the story. The game lets you focus on what you want, be it story progress, secondary missions or just battling. Looking forward to complete this one and onto storm 3!!!
