* ItsEasySoItSucks: A common complaint about the game is how often the game throws EXP at you, rewarding you with EXP for completing sidequests, throwing multiple enemies in a single battle that can be taken down easily for a lot of EXP and even building the kingdom itself can give some EXP. All this means it's ''very'' easy to become over-leveled even if you don't do any grinding, which in turn makes the main story a breeze.

On June 22, 2018, this was remedied with the release of the patch to version 1.03, which gives the options of playing on either Hard or [[HarderThanHard Expert]] difficulty levels.

* ThatOneAchievement: A few of these qualify.
** "No Stone Unturned" requires you to activate every Higgledy Stone. Along with needing to scour the entire world for them, some of them require hard-to-find items (Vorpal the Volcanic in particular, who requires an item that's only obtainable from a max-level Evermore or the ultimate BonusDungeon) or have powerful Tainted Monsters blocking them if you beat the first 50 Tainted Monsters first.
** "God of War" requires you to complete 50 unique skirmishes. This one's not hard, just incredibly tedious, as if you've been diligent during the main story you'll have completed maybe 20 by the end of the game. Skirmishes also aren't very fun (see ScrappyMechanic) and it's hard to grind for the higher-level ones.

* SlowPacedBeginning: Two of the main draws of the game, kingdom-building and citizen recruitment, aren't introduced until Chapter 4 (of 9). Due to this, there are no optional sidequests at all until this point, leaving the game with a downplayed case of NoSidepathsNoExplorationNoFreedom until then. (The only real optional content being Tainted Monsters and the odd forest) Even the main story suffers from this trope; besides the Ding Dong Dell coup, nothing particularly major happens until Chapter 3, and it's not until then that we're introduced to the BigBad and the central goal of solving the nation rulers' problems.

* ThatOneBoss: Many find Bastion to be this. On top of being very large for the relatively small arena you fight him in, he has quite a fair bit of AOE attacks that makes attacking him in the first place rather difficult. There's also the second phase, where a sudden UnexpectedGameplayChange where Evan must platform his way onto his head causes numerous players grief, if not for [[ScrappyMechanic game's jumping physics not being suited for platforming]], then because Bastion is constantly spamming lightning bolts that are guaranteed to knock Evan off and back to square one if he's hit by them.

* BestBossEver: One criticism of this game is that the bosses don't fit this trope as much as the previous game, with most being simple Tank-And-Spank or EliteMooks. However, there are some exceptions:
** The Kingmakers - Due to having a unique gimmick for each fight (That [[FinalExamBoss comes back]]), being ''very'' frantic, and for [[ForMassiveDamage rewarding the players who manage to smack their weak spots]].
** The Imp Queen in the Ding Dong Dell arc. Like most bosses, she is a [[EliteMook trash mob on steroids]]. But ''un''like most of the minibosses, she [[FlunkyBoss summons adds that can heal her]], and floods the stage with all sorts of powerful attacks to keep players on their toes, forcing them to play defensively and avoid them. It's a change from the previous bosses, who could be beaten by playing aggressively and flanking.
** Mausinger from the same chapter. While nowhere near as insane as the Imp Queen, he still tests the players dodging abilities.

* DisappointingLastLevel: The game's middle stages (Hydropolis, Broadleaf) are self-contained arcs that can be finished within the span of only two hours each since every dungeon is pretty short, with Broadleaf only being ''one'' dungeon. The minibosses were seen as rather forgettable as well. However, Ding Dong Dell manages to [[NostalgiaLevel make people remember the first game's early dungeon]], and [[BestBossEver gives quite a frantic boss fight in the form of Mausinger]], followed by another Kingmaker with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=asbHNIGMQ1A arguably one of the best themes ever]].

She's only level 79 but her HP and damage surpass that of the final boss and her main attack is practically broken. It consists of her launching a light orb at you. It's not particularly fast but it's damage will be enough to either kill you outright even at level 90, doing anywhere from 2,500 to 6,000! HP worth of damage. And your characters HP tops off around the 3,000 HP mark for the most part. Did I mention that the projectile will double back if it misses the first time? And it has an explosive area of effect that has a larger radius than your dodge roll carries you even with proper timing. Not the only trick up her sleeves, she'll summon anywhere from one to three extra fairies of varying elemental types...that have similar HP totals and attacks do around 600-1000 damage.
