[PS2] Kingdom Hearts 2

how much harder is proud than standard?

Double Post:
Oh, and IGN is full of shit.

EVERY single person who has given impressions of this game either by living in Japan or importing says the fighting system is BETTER and deeper than the first. And KH2 can't be "literally degraded to button mashing" when the first WAS "press attack over and over".

The camera, gummi ship, story = all better.

And when I say every single impression of the game says the battle system is better, I'm not exaggerating.

IGN loses.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I'll keep believing that, for I'm fairly sure you'll be playing as Sora.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Huh? No it doesn't. It makes sense to me. They just wanted to be able to go around as if they were part of the Organization.

The story got amazing at the endgame. The actual CG? Yeah, a bit abrupt, but the first game didn't really have some uberexciting CG either. The CG did its purpose in KH2. The real meat of the ending just wasn't in CG.

But yeah, the whole endgame is amazing. The multiple bosses, the dramatic elements with the two. So good.

And yeah, read the journal people. =P

Anyway, game of the year so far.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

The final dungeon and battles were mostly cool -- the ones that didn't rely on gimmicks anyway, like the card battle and the DODGE-1000-LASER-BLASTS-AT-THE-LAST-SECOND-OR-DIE-AND-START-ALL-OVER finale.

Eh, I think you're way off. The plot at the end was awesome. Everything with Riku/Ansem, Ansem the Wise, Roxas, and Namine.. It all tied together perfectly and made pretty much 100% sense to me.

What? That's not how it works really. While yeah, Mickey would blend in badly (whatever though, who cares), how would Riku not easily blend in? He was just going around in the darkness and you couldn't see his face.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I don't know what you're talking about. I saw most of the characters at the end in other places besides the start of the game. You must have been playing a different game.

And none of the explanations were half-assed.

Also, what are you talking about with Maleficent? She doesn't figure into the whole mess. She was a minor character with her own agenda who couldn't reach her goal, so she "helped" Sora to help herself.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Yes. Yes, he is.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?
