When I have the chance to pick up and play these days it’s usually Diablo IV. Just prior to that I was replaying through the original Marvel Ultimate Alliance with the absolutely insane roster mod (increases the roster to something like 50 heroes and unlocks them, and the custom team building / team perks system all from the start). Decided to run an all girl team lead by Jean Grey and Rogue.
That’s funny, I actually think TotK is great in this regard.
The DPad Up quick inventory menu is awesome and the sorting options are exactly what I’d want (most used, attack power, type, and zonai).
Having quick swappable equipment sets would be nice but so many games lack that feature that I don’t even think about it. In TotK it also seems unnecessary unless you’re into min-max. Like, I just need one piece of fire immune clothing to go into Death Mountain, I don’t need to wear an entire set and if I was really lazy I could pop an elixir from the quick select menu instead.
Cooking is annoying though. It’s such a fun animation and satisfying outcome but the laborious hold and drop mechanics get tedious when you’re cooking in bulk.
I wonder how long this will take to catch up to the current game though in terms of content. There’s, what… 10 expansions for the original plus a dozen content packs and music packs? It’s almost as extreme as The Sims.
Might be hard to dive deep into C:S2 if your used to playing C:S1 with a large amount of the expansions from the last 8 years
