I I got it yesterday and honestly after you get used to different menuing (I have played mostly pmd1 and pmd2) it's a lot better.

The changes to a lot of moves and the displacement mechanics have really cool strategic implications.
On the fly leader changing is available sooner and a lot smoother and vibes well with the changes to displacement.
You assemble your team as you enter the dungeon so now it doesn't feel like a waste of time to bring more Pokemon with you. Also on your way into the dungeon you can do inventory management at the bank and kanhashkam which is SO NICE.
The friend area changes are a bit sad but also it tightens up the gameplay surrounding that bit a lot.
THEY GIVE YOU A SHORTCUT TO THE POST OFFICE FROM YOUR HOUSE
And I really enjoy the remastered ost:)

I recommend it for pmd fans tbh I think it's definitely better than the original

also your primal dialga avatar from pmd2 is great i love that series, its cool to see a new installment. i played the demo on my switch and the fact that you use a move every attack now is kinda scary to me i wonder how stuff like purity forest or buried relic will work...

the 99 floor dungeons definitely present a really unique style of challenge and i think a lot of side effects of the inventory management system really lent themselves well to the rougelike genre while still allowing the game to appeal to a casual audience

i definitely wouldn't have "nethack esports player" (which i arguably am go OotC!) in my twitter bio if it weren't for the fact that i sank hundreds of hours into blue rescue team :)
I think the change to moves means that 99 floor dungeons will now present a new type of challenge

You always can see where every item/enemy is now which kind of is a change but i don't really mind
