Could be the lens, could be the field of view. Have there been other 35mm lenses on crop / 50mm on FF or film that you have liked? If so, it may be the lens. If not, maybe you just naturally like a wider prime.

I have the 35 mm/2 and frankly am not in love with it. I keep it on my X-Pro1 where it's good AF is very welcome. This combination suits the f/2's dryer, more objective rendering. Bluntly, I use it to play photojournalist when I am in the mood. The 35mm I love on Fuji is the f/1.4.
