It was one of my gripes about the first game that it felt to slow and hand-holdy, so I'd probably end up liking it? It's such a hard balance to get a system like that to feel good, though, so I'm glad they added all the tuning options they did.

It definitely has some mastery needed for it as well. Or else you get a scene like this: youtu.be/UpI8g79MdA4?...
