WKC is back with good improvements and some negatives, Sep 20 2011
By J. C. Yoon "puffereze" - Published on Amazon.com
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: White Knight Chronicles 2 (Video Game)
Positives-Story continues exactly where WKC left off and it's a trilogy, 3rd one is on the way.
-Improvements on Graphic and voice acting
-More skills for all weapons
-A LOT more weapons and armors since max level is now 80.
-No more X button harass when searching for Ores/bugs/flowers etc. It gives you all the materials at once
-More GR quests and new Monster Bounty quests(these can be harder than final boss)
-Customize Knight for your avatar
-Data import from the 1st one is impressive. Includes all the mats,weapons, armors and georama layout
-Online mode! now up to 6 people in a party with Knight transformation
-Better AI for your companions
-Better AC,MP balance for your skills and combos
-Plenty of challenges towards the end of the game and after you've beaten the story mode. New game+ and you unlock a castle to test your strategy/skills.
Negatives
-Story mode environment. You get 1 more new town and 2 new initial & final dungeon but everything else is the same. You basically play through the towns & dungeons that you've already beaten on 1st one all over again. This was a huge let down.
-Errands(resident quests These suck, the reward is very good. Mostly, you just go around the world map and talk to different NPCs over and over again, nothing else. Just spend time running for 1hour to complete a few of them. Boring and annoying.
-No online mode for Bounty hunt and Otherworld(to get your avatar knight's equipment) I got excited to pull off something like capcom's Monster hunter online, but found out that it's offline only.
-Same towns and dungeons mean same monsters and same soundtrack...seriously.
I managed to beat the story mode without getting too boring because of new weapons, skills with more level ups and some cool cut scenes. But overall, it felt more like online grinding than an epic story mode.
I clocked in 270hours for the 1st one. Currently grinding and playing I'm at about 60+ hours on this one. There are plenty to do and plenty challenges. Nevertheless WKC saga is still among my favorite PS3 RPG with Demon souls. I give this one 4/5 for more improvements than negatives. Could have been 5/5 if they weren't so lazy to create more maps and dungeons and new monsters. Because it lacks those, Story mode feels like WKC1 with a good patch to fix bugs and better interface. But I know that online is a kick ass time with a friend or two... especially for being free.(no monthly fee)

Amazing - simply amazing, Sep 24 2011
By Cai - Published on Amazon.com
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: White Knight Chronicles 2 (Video Game)
I was a big fan of the original game when it came to the US last year and had been looking forwards to White Knight Chronicles II for a long time now.Then, about two weeks before it came out, my PS3 died and I lost ALL of my game save files.
So, I was disheartened, and went to purchase a copy of the original again. Until the fellow selling it to me told me that White Knight Chronicles II actually came with a complete copy of the first game, remastered to the new graphics levels.
I was astounded to say the least.
So I brought it home and tore it open and started a new game of White Knight Chronicles I - and let me tell you, the graphical difference is amazing. The texturing and shadows are far deeper and more detailed. The characters are more detailed and animated.
I have yet to get through even the first few missions of the first game, but had to post a review so that people know just how much effort the publishers put into this.
The game is amazing, pure and simple. I love the combat system, the graphics - it is one of the VERY few old school RPG games to have come to the high definition systems. If you're a RPG fan who is on the fence on this one - trust me, get it. It is well worth it and you can invest hundreds of hours, or just enough time to get through the plot.
It has something for everyone.

Rent for the story, buy for the online play., Sep 13 2011
By Brandon Shea "\m/ Brandon \m/" - Published on Amazon.com
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: White Knight Chronicles 2 (Video Game)
The story reminds me of Final Fantasy XII with a little The Legend of Dragoon thrown in. Very nice of the company to put the remastered version of the first game with this one because the voice syncing in the international version was horrible. They synced up the mouths of the characters during the cut scenes to match the voice acting and added the remastered battle system they created for the second game. Worth playing through the story mode alone and the on line play has a great replay value.
