    First, for what I loved. The art direction and cell-shaded graphics are incredibly beautiful, with a nice variation in locales (Goldpaw in particular is a stand-out). The varied gameplay systems including kingdom-building, skirmishes, real-time battles, and exploration meshed together surprisingly well; I found the kingdom-building to be enjoyably addictive in particular. While generally quite easy, I also actually had just a lot of fun with the battle system; seldom did it feel stale.

    Now, for my gripes. My main problem with this game is with the story: while I know that it is intended to be more like a fairy tale for all ages, this has to be one of the most simplistic, one-dimensional stories I have seen in a long time. The game makes a few rushed attempts at “character development” in later chapters, but it never feels natural. For the most part, characters have next to no backstory, few internal conflicts, and seem to always make the perfect, most morally-just decisions. Even in a fairy tale, is there not room for a bit more complexity and fleshing out of characters? My other gripes include no difficulty options, bland side quests, mostly boring and uninspired dungeons, chibi design for the overworld and kingdom building (this is more of a personal taste), and the dearth of voice-acting. Only about ~10% of the dialogue is voiced; it really hurt major scenes to just have silence and text bubbles.    … Expand

    The first Ni No Kuni was one of my favorite games on PS3, also one of the best RPGs. It put you into a beautiful & believable world. The only ‘not-good-enough’ thing with that game is combat system.

    While in Ni No Kuni II, the combat was greatly improved and overall well-received. It's a Action-RPG like, fast pace, hack n slash style gameplay. But the most important thing in a RPG, the story, and the way they tell a story, is lost.

    I can only guess that is because they changed the game director, and Studio Ghibli was out of Ni No Kuni II's production. Apparently they leaned too many resources to combat system and neglected the story and other details that make you believe it's a vivid world instead of just a make-believe open world.

    This reminds me of Dragon Age Inquisition, I was so excited for that one, because I am a big fan of DA:O. And turns out its combat was satisfying enough, and story sucks, just like Ni No Kuni II.

    So, overall, I recommend this game to those who doesn't really care about the story and all. If you are happy with good combat and beautiful cartoonic visuals, definitely try this game. But if you are a serious RPG fan, who value the story a lot, i suggest you avoid Ni No Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom. Instead, try the first one.    … Expand

    I loved the prequel, but hated the combat system. NNK2 fixed that particular issue I had.
    Otherwise however, I have to say that the sequel doesn't live up to the greatness that was the first Ni No Kuni with the exception of the art style, which is a damn shame.

    NI no kuni 2 is a really good game that I love almost the whole way through. What makes the main story so good is the characters they are really good and memorable. There were a few moments that I felt were not needed. They tried to build tension, but they gave away the twist which ruined it. There was a twist in the end that I thought was pretty good and took me by siprise.

    The combat in ni no kuni is super good and I enjoyed it a lot and never got tired of it. The tainted monster were tough but were a joy to fight each one of them was tough unless I overl eved it by a lot. The dungeons were well made and really fun to fight through. The dream were fun and a good distraction from the main game.

    I loved the side quests in this game they were fun. Insted of them being something you can do on the side they are mandatory. They were enjoyable and did not become repetitive.

    This was what I thought this part was the weaker part of the game. The kingdom building is fun and enjoyable and satisfying to watch your kingdom grow and get stronger. The skirmishes in my opinion were fun but gets really boring after a while.

    Over ni no kuni 2 is an amazing game that I would recommend for any one love a good JRPG.    … Expand

    Action JRPG muy entretenido y visualmete muy bonito. La música del maestro Joe Hisaishi es estupenda como no podría ser de otro modo. Lo peor es que durante mucho tiempo el juego tiene una dificultad muy baja y echo en falta un selector de dificultad. El sistema de combate me ha gustado mucho.

    This game is too easy. Even on hard difficulty you can easily defeat monsters that are higher level than you by randomly pushing buttons.
    Most of the story is being told in subtitles, as there is very little voice acting in the game. Either way, the story and characters are cringy.
    The cel-shaded graphics look great, but the overworld has a different art style and looks pretty bad.

I love the real time battles, the character development, the rich environments and the amount of depth you can go into when developing your kingdom. A lot of people on here seem to have a problem with the difficulty being too easy, but to be honest I liked that I could fly through the earlier sections as it gave me a better sense of achievement and felt like I was really motoring through.

    The thing is, as the game came to it's third act I found the difficulty spiked up and I had to run around doing a bunch of fetch quests and random monster kills just to get my level up when all I wanted to do was to finish the story. I get that games like this need a bit of grinding here and there but it felt like that's all I did for the second half of the game, and even then I was faced with an end boss that I almost didn't beat, and not in a valiant struggle way, but more of a 'FFS what is this?' way.

    The characters are a mixed bunch and overall were put together and voiced very well. The thing is, when you're wandering around in general, as well as in the middle of battle, you can choose to control anybody in your party. For 95% of it I chose Roland and the 5% I didn't was because either I'd got Roland killed in battle or I pressed the switch character button by accident. That's not to say the other characters were bad, it was just that Roland was the standout cool guy that I couldn't not be, you know?

    My main bugbear with the game though is the military battle sections. They were fine the first few times but to have to keep grinding through these all the way through to the end was a pain in the ass and it really ruined the flow of the game for me. It's a testament to the rest of the game that I wanted to power through these and not turn my console off. It's nice that they tried to explore something new, but I think it fell a little flat for this.

    But look, if you loved the first one (and most people did) then I think you will enjoy this as well. Just be patient and be prepared to soak in the gorgeous and colourful backdrops and characters.    … Expand

    The story behind this game is incredible. My only complaint is that I wish there were more narrated scenes instead of subtitled dialogue with sound effects. I want to find more games like this which feature first/third(/I'll even take second) person battles but also managing a kingdom.

    I'm amazed how tragic audio layer has made this game unbearable. The music is irritating to say the least, and when you disable it it appears that there's not much left - besides the dialogs the game seems muted. This is the first time in ma gaming carrer that I've felt that the game is destroyed because of sound only.

    Beside that the plot is dull

    Beyond the pretty graphics and legitimately good music lies a shell of a game with uninspiring cliche story, shallow characters and boring gameplay (yes even for jrpg). This would be a perfect game for a 6 year old kids, but pass on it if you like original stories with deep and complex character development - it simply does not exist here.

    I guess this is only for jrpg lovers, just as with nearly all jRPGs.. Looks beautiful as ads with all those anime cutscenes videos, but everything changes once you reveal the actual gameplay - which is very boring and repetitive, with cheap mechanics. Mostly remind some kind of low budget online rpg from 15-18 years ago.

    In comparison it is hard to live up to the first game, the original is the better game, but Revenant Kingdom is not a bad game, in fact it’s a very sold JRPG.

    So before I praise the great stuff in this game, I’ll get the comparison out the way first.
    Ni No Kuni WotWW had a much better story and characters. It’s hard not to miss Mr Drippy while playing RK, the game feels like it’s lost some of the magic that made the original so great.
    The original story was much more intriguing and kept me wanting to play to discover more. It was also complemented by the beautiful Studio Ghibli anime cut scenes. The animation style is what really set the game apart from other JRPGs at the time and made it a truly spectacular game. It’s a shame they are missing from RK.
    Combat was better in the original game, mixing classic turn based combat with a more modern action style of combat worked beautifully and added a deeper layer of tactics.
    The lack of Familiars has also really affected the game. With over 400 different creatures to collect and level up in the first game it feels like a big part of the game is missing in RK,

    The above complaints were what made me completely dismiss the second game and leave it to go dusty until 2020.

    Around a month before writing, I decided to give RK a second chance. I went into playing it with an open mind, assuring myself I would not compare it to the original and I’m having a lot of fun.
    The story may not be as good, but it’s still interesting enough to keep you playing. The characters aren’t as good, but they grow on you. The combat isn’t as great but once you get into it, it’s surprisingly deep and varied. The tactic tweaker adds extra layers to the combat system making it much deeper than it first appears. The cutscenes are dull in comparison, and there’s way to much text, voice acting would have been preferred, but the animation does try to feel like studio Ghibli.
    The Familiars have been replaced with Higgledies. Which are admittedly cute, and can help in battle and are fun to collect.
    The world is well designed and the sound score is fantastic (mainly because it’s a rehash of the first games).
    The game has a fair bit of variety with the Kingdom management system, which is a welcome change and Skirmish battles which are large scale battles that take place in a isometric view and require a different form of tactics than the main combat system.

    There’s a lot to love when not compared to the original. Ni No Kuni 2 is a fun action RPG with hours of entertainment to offer, if you can forgive the changes and just give it a chance!    … Expand

    Ni No Kuni is overall a very good JRPG. If you liked the first iteration, you'll probably enjoy this one as well. The graphics aren't quite as great, since Studio Ghibli wasn't involved in this one, but they're in the same vein as the first game for the most part.

At first, I found the 3D world map models really weird, but after a while you get used to it and kind of enjoy it. The soundtrack isn't quite as delightful and memorable as the first, but it has its moments.

    Trading out hundreds of collectible familiars, ala Pokemon, with familiars that act as support only works really well for the way this game was developed. One of the things that got really nerve-racking about the first iteration was just how many different familiars there were, and how you ultimately had to collect two of every base familiar if you wanted to pop the proper trophy and do a full completion. The battle mechanics overall are very nice, easy to grasp, and it's nice that in dungeons it's full action-RPG without having to always go into separate battle segments.

    I dig the simplicity of the story. JRPGs in the 90s have long had a horrible track record of getting more and more convoluted, and this series has done pretty well to stay away from that - though it has its moments of adding in bits that don't heighten the story all that much. No major twists, but when they happen they usually sort themselves out pretty quickly. But it's the story of a boy who fell victim to a coup de'tat, and now he has to build a new kingdom up from the ground and seek out new alliances. It doesn't get overlaid with major "ultimate evil" stuff until the end game, and it's otherwise very subtle throughout. It's a breath of fresh air in this genre.

    The kingdom building reminds me slightly of games like Dark Cloud 2, and the wide cast of recruitable citizens, as well as the army skirmishes, were both reminiscent of Suikoden - both of these things made the experience of Ni No Kuni 2 that much more awesome, it was a real throwback and now I want to go back and replay both of those titles.

    So all of that said, here's the bad:

    There's way too much for completionists to do. There are SO MANY fetch quests. If you're wanting to just focus on the main story, and do a few extra fun things, this game is probably about 20-30 hours of playtime. But if you're going full completionists, you're talking 80+ hours, and that's before you consider jumping into DLC. The kingdom building has almost way too much going on and it takes way too long to expand, build-up funds, etc, and a lot of the citizens were hard to find. There were a lot of quests, familiars, and other things that required ultra-rare items that you can only get on the last 10 floors of the last Dreamer Maze, and take way too long to get. The wild goose chases get so tedious sometimes.

    Speaking of which, there's a quest in this game where you have to find "smelly shoes". This was one of the first/few things I sourced the internet to figure out where the hell, because I hadn't found any smelly shoes, and it required hours of grinding to eventually get them. I shouldn't have to spend hours just to complete one quest because the devs didn't think to make an easier workaround and just list them for sale in a single item shop in a single town. There are way too many iterations of things like this in this game.

    There's not a lot of grinding to be had in this game, and honestly, I was always ahead of the curve when I'd enter new dungeons - until you get to the end game. The last Dreamer Maze had me facing enemies at level 90 and higher, and the additional endgame tainted monsters were ridiculously hard. The difficulty really ramps up on those 10 battles, and the only way you're going to beat them is if you finally spend way too much time grinding away for days. The level 150 cap is also not necessary, it's way too high.

    One of the non-completionist gripes I have is the lack of voice acting. They really skimped on this here. A game like this, on a system like PS4 and PC that can hold tons of data, should have almost all voice acting when it plays to the main story. So many situations where important dialogue would be going on via text, and then suddenly it switched to voice acting. Also, there's a certain charm to the writing of the first game that's just not captured in this one. Try as they might, Lofty was no replacement for Drippy, but you might find him in just the same loving company if they had more voice acting.

    Also, the rich, beautiful Studio Ghibli cutscenes being gone is just such a shame. But it is what it is.

    I definitely recommend JRPG fans, especially fans of the first game, to give this a go if they haven't already. But if you're a completionist, godspeed.    … Expand

    Part an RPG, part a strategy game, part a city builder, as a whole a fairy tale that makes Studio Ghibli and Dragon Quest spring to mind. [06/2018, p.56]

    Ni No Kuni II is truly a tale, deliberately naïve and full of colorful characters. The combination of different genres, JRPG, management and RTS, works well, as each style is interwoven with the others.
