Yeah, I don't know, cvv. ELEX II does a number of things worse than ELEX, as HoboForEternity illustrates in his post. And there's even more. They couldn't even stick to the formula well. The factions sucked and felt shallow, the game is ugly as sin, especially compared to some of the beautiful scenery in the first game, exploration feels much less rewarding as a whole, character and equipment progression is much more flat and ineffectual, and even the writing isn't as good. ELEX II is pretty much objectively worse than ELEX in most ways, and PB doesn't seem to care in the least. I have no hope for ELEX III. Someone else has to take up the mantle if we're going to see any more good games of this type in the future.
And yes, Chronicles of Myrtana is much better than ELEX, not to mention ELEX II. Blows my mind people like Roxor can hate on it despite it clearly being superior in almost every way. It's more of a PB game than PB has made in like 15 years.
