4 of 53 sampled reviews raised it
The world is filled with content (which is an huge improvement over the rather empty world of U4-5) and I love that every area's difficulty is completely independent of your character's level, which means that you can enter an cave or dungeon that it's enemies outlevel you and can 1-hit kill you.
