Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
So if you, like me are a die-hard Majesty fan from the original, and found yourself wondering how in the ♥♥♥♥ you were supposed to pass some of these missions, its because your souped up graphics card was turning your difficulty to nightmare without you knowing it.

Interface
Players who bring up Interface mostly praise it.
First: AI: The AI in Majesty 2 is quite simply put, abysmal compared to majesty 1, your heroes seem to not have any personalities like Majesty 1. (ironic considering the subtitle: Fantasy Kingdom Sims) in majesty 2 heroes seem to have no motivation to do anything outside of Greed by placing reward flags for doing things.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
I really enjoyed the sound design in particular, with some rousing music and a hilariously not-Sean-Connery narrator.
