However, the more time I spent with it, all 60 hours of it, the more it began to grow on me. The characters were flat but not cringe-inducing. The combat was repetitive but showed nuance as I dug more into Blood Arts. The graphics were passable, if not wholly unpleasant. God Eater 2: Rage Burst is comfort food with a controller, bland but filling. It may not be the best Thanksgiving, but I can see why some kids call it their favorite holiday.For the first fifteen hours you spend time getting to know your team in the Blood Unit while going on special companion missions with them. Each member brings with them their own unique personality and quirks, but I found that the Blood Unit just doesn’t have that same connection to each other that I saw in Resurrection.

As the story progresses you encounter God Eaters from Resurrection such as Alisa and Kota who can join you on missions but without that special Blood ability your Blood Unit brings with them to battle.

Rage Burst assumes you have played Resurrection at least that’s what it seems like.
