More characters than KH, more moves, more interaction, now it might have caught my favour for this game
I have been fooled, too. It seemed like a bad game at the beginning, but when I gradually levelled up and progress further into the Realm of Heartless, that's when I know this is a good game. It really opened my eyes.
My view towards RPGs have changed ever since.
Although the stories of the original Disney cartoons diverted a bit off-plot, but it actually ties all the mysterious events all over the worlds together, giving players a fairly interesting storyline.
The gameplay's not too hard. You get a lot of moves and combos at the beginning of the game. And the Reaction Moves, Limit Abilities and Drive Forms are great addition to the gameplay and adds further excitement and fun into it.
And this time in KH II, more worlds are added, and players now get to obtain Gummi Upgrade Blueprints and play gummi missions to unlock more worlds. A better fact is, there are now new episodes constantly available at different worlds as you defeat bosses and unlock items and worlds.
More abilities and item slots mean more customizing your main avatar, Sora, and his counterparts, Goofy and Donald. One of the last episodes feature amazing battle system, and brings out the best of RPG gaming.
Good game, I must say now!
