I also really like the combo and move variations in GE2RB though I hear customization was better in GER (never played this version). The pledge/burst system is also pretty unique and very powerful. The feel of the combat in this is far more fast paced but is somewhat let down by an insane amount of easy and boring missions until later chapters where you need to focus a bit. This bullet crafting is pretty deep and can literally break the game. The weapon has a shield, melee and gun in each variation and you can craft bullets for your guns. God Eater allows focuses on customising only your God Arc really almost everything else is cosmetics.

The sequel adds the spirit hand/grappling hook feature as well as somewhat open world. The purification and spirit collection system was interesting. It had its own take on weapons and monster part destruction. Monster Hunter releases with new weapons, new monsters, skills, status, elements etc. I much prefer the slow struggle and experimenting with what works until I finally reach the top with occasional dips outside or online to get help with certain road blocks or to more efficiently get an item I need. To me, this is the reward at the end of the path and not something I typically enjoy for long periods when I get there. I know most people will tend to mad rush to late game 'fun' parts and use meta tactics and weapons to make the most out of their runs.

I mean, I understand getting burned out but I think each game (ignoring Ultimate/update releases) is pretty standout. I disagree completely but I know I play the game a little differently so I might be in the minority.
