Everything is great, except for some of the text...

I'm a new fan of Vandals Hearts I. Which is boring to watch, but extremely fun to play. The same can be said of Vandals Hearts II, but thats not the problem with this game. First let me go through the pluses of this game.

Good Things: 1. The characters don't have as bad animation as in the VH 1. 2. The characters have better pictures. 3. The names of the characters don't mean as much as in VH 1. 4. Regardless of what others say the names are easy to remember for anyone that has ever played a RPG. 5. The spells are excellent. 6. The outside of a level doesn't look as bad as in VH 1. Not great mind you, but better...somewhat... 7. And the best part of the game is it's new battle system. Which I love due to the fact that you actually have to think to make it work.

Bad Things: In this game, thank god, the bad things don't out weigh the good things. Although most of the following are VERY annyoning at least to me.

1. The game testers missed about 40% of the errors in text. 2. The loading screen makes you think something is wrong with your PlayStation. 3. No GIF's. (They weren't videos other reviewers, they were animations. Take a look at GIFS for a computer.) 4. Why is there no giant blood spurt anymore? That was fun.

This game can be sssooo boring sometimes!!!

This game has a good story line but the exposition in between the battles can be just a little too wordy. Too much exposition to put in a game can make the game a little boring. The cool thing about this game is that when you strike a bad guy or a creature, blood comes out!^-^

I was really dissapointed with this game. The game play went ok, but there were wayyyy too many characters in the game. It reminded me of Final Fantasy too much. I think that the game designers were Final Fantasy programmers on a severe amount of Heroin.

As Good As The First

Well,I wish the the gameplay and attack system were the same as the VH1 but it's still way cool. the magic graphics are better but,your men are the same graphic-wise.

Don't waste your money!

I bought this game because I really like RPG's, BIG mistake! This isn't a true RPG this is a story game, This game is boring, the game is one big video and the only part you have in it is the battles that are annoying and don't have that something that games like Final Fantasy has, you also get to make the OCCASIONAL decision for the hero. The weapons are basic and boring with the only variation being in the stats and spells. The graphics are terrible, I've seen better graphics on a SNES!

The music is resonible but a bit repeditive with not much variation from song to song. The story is boring with the biggest twist being a traitor and a war. The story also jumps without much explanation, and as usual everyone is in love with the main character or his friends.

My suggestion is don't buy this game, wasting money on lollies will give you longer enjoyment! It looks like Konami have made another terrible RPG. If you like RPG's stick to SquareSoft and the Final Fantasy series.

VERY good storyline, very good game

Decline downwards somewhat....

I loved the first Vandal Hearts and really wanted to see if they would follow that game's story. The characters in this game though seem a little uninspired, and thus the game feels a little tedious.

I guess it is called 2 to capitalize off the original. The only common thing is the battle system. A great thing they did is make your armor and swords attached to your body. When you wear copper armor you will see your character wear it. Battles though get tough. Real tough. DO u like being outnumbered 5 to 5092509258902? I don't.

The difficulty makes it tough. I returned it after a month or two. The story is pretty good though. You get to meet up with some friends from the past. The main character is absolutely awesome. He looks so cool. I would give this game 5 stars, but the tough battles and uninspired characters(a great number) detracted a couple points. Buy it though if you see it now. It should be cheap.

fun but trickey

This game is great, except for a few spots. For instance, you learn special attacks when you use a weapon enough, and are able to equip that attack on other weapons as well. That is good in theory. But say that you learned that attack with an axe. You can only equip that attack on other axes, so basically you are stuck using an axe the entire game if you want that special attcak. I think that is ridiculous. Other than that, the game is great.

Vandel Hearts 2 Another Dumb sequil

I've allways said the only series where the sequil wasn't worse then the orginial was the FF series, and VH/VH2 is no exception. I enjoyed the orignial VH so figured I would try the second one. I was very confused by the battle system, even though a plus is that it became very difficult for you to win battles now because of the constantly moving char's. The job system was very hard to get the hang of and had nothing I found immensly rewarding to intregue me enough to work with my jobs. Plus the fact that the magic was very low scale (even less then VH 1) and that the job class made no sence just made me dislike this game. If you want to play a RPG/strategy game. Try VH1 or Final Fantasy Tatics. This isn't worth it.

Take my word for it, this RPG isn't one you would buy.

I'm sorry to say, but this game is just awful. The characters are bland and do not develop through the game. The plot lacks any intersting twists, and the graphics are just bad. Also, there is no variety in mission objectives, I's just "Kill all enemies". Take my word for it, this game is just not interesting.
