Right now, I've made it to the World of the Dead and am right outside the Arena. Yeah, I like it a fair bit better. I mean, there is the nagging worry that I've seen Voidwalker things in a few places, but haven't gotten the ability yet, so I can envision a whole dungeon where I do nothing but that, like in the first game, but overall, I like the dungeons a lot more. Both Lost Temple and Foundry were just great and Drenchfort was really good, too. I also like how the dungeons have a larger focus, with the world itself basically being a hub, more or less. Think I've already done about as many dungeons as there were in the first game and I don't even think I'm halfway through.
About the only negative experience I had was my brief trip to The Scar. I noticed enemies were dealing WAY more damage than previously. Then I had this hellish climb upward while instant-death lava chased me that nearly broke me. And then I realized my L11 Death was fighting L17 foes and decided to put off the rest of the dungeon for a bit.
I do love the Possessed Weapon addition. Allows all the vendor trash enemies drop to have a purpose and it's cool as hell to upgrade weapons so you can regen health or whatnot from hitting, critical-ing or killing enemies, while getting defense and strength boosts from doing so.
I'm not afraid to die because I am invincible
Viva la muerte, that's my goddamn principle
