Xenosaga Episode II. It is an okay game, but it isn't 1/4 as good as I. I am extremely glad I didn't spend my money buying it.

Some people say that you should count sequals as their own game. No way. We all expect great things from sequals. Even if you believe that all sequals suck, you expect something because you want it to be true. I personally have faith that sequals will be good, but Episode II has shaken that. I'll state my problems with the game:

1. Voices - Ugh... Why in the hell would you change 90% of the voices? Plus, Canaan's voice was horrible.

2. Music - Not 1% as good as the music in 1.

3. Main Character Change - No doubt Shion should still be the main character. However, she was replaced mainly by Jr. That's good, but Jr.'s importance is smaller. Shion's destiny is what will lead to the heart of the plot. Exploring Jr.'s path won't get us very far in the story.


That's it. It seems small, but the change in all that really spoiled what could've been a great game. The only really good thing I can think of is the better-looking battles. Of course, that is no substitute for the numerous faults in the game.
