Both had their peaks and valleys.
For the most part, both of their stories were entertaining and enjoyable.
The combat...umm...how do I put this? Easy to get into, mildy enjoyable...alright overall.
The graphics were good, since this region doesn't really affect me very much, but I must say that the cinematics for K2 were better than K1, IMO.
The characters were for the most part deep and interactive, except for the villains..only this region has really lacked enough for me, IMO.
But K2 did have all the extra goodies to compensate.
I liked them both.
Key words: Mostly, and IMO.
