I love Kingdom Hearts 2. The gameplay, the story, the artsyle, everything about it is practically perfect. Pretty much any complaint I had about the first game was remedied in its sequel. The platforming is streamlined and made far less tedious, plus the Gummi Ship minigames are actually fun and engaging!
The combat is my standard for games of its kind. I'm serious. I love how you can use different abilities to find a combat style that's more comfortable for you. And as you level up, you get some really overpowered ones that makes you feel like you've truly grown since the start. Reaction commands are also amazing! It made me sad that it took until KH3 to bring them back. I don't usually like quicktime events, but reaction commands are their own thing. They also always look super cool, so that's a plus.
A complaint I can understand is how long the opening segment with Roxas is. For when you're going through the game for the first time, it's great, since it builds up suspense and gets you invested. When you're replaying it, I can see how it can be a bit tedious. But honestly, a lot of the minigames in the segment are really fun, anyway.
For people who actually understand the story, this entry is great. For those who don't...it still looks cool. Just watch all the people with the cool cloaks go around. It's worth it.
(Atlantica does still suck pretty bad, though. I can't really argue with that.)
