I rather like Hullbreaker HM, and I like it much more than I do the original. I like that they tried to do a few different things with the boss fights, and Ymir actually requires paying attention, but not to such a degree that it's insurmountable.

The bits of flavor dialogue from the pirate captains and other Maelstrom members are great, too.

My only complaint is that we didn't get to go toe-to-toe with Merlwyb at the end.
