Growing up, a friend was a lot more into the second game than I was, and I think I borrowed it from him a few times and beat it once?
I don't know. I tried replaying again recently, but I always lose interest right after the first town.
Hot take, but I liked the first game more despite the second game being objectively "better" and more fleshed out. Something about the game just clicks better for me.
