I really like the new art, some of the card art is very memorable.
Upgrade UI is a bit of a mess, and kinda breaks on 4k resolution.
Tutorial is a very welcome addition. And either I remembered stuff from previous playthrough (doubtful), or the crafting is a bit less convoluted this time around.
I'm not a CCG player, but I like it quite a lot. Seems easy enough to get into and start playing.
