Rich story and lore, not the greatest but decent voice acting for it's time.
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
75 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
This is a game which puts its best feature behind a grind wall, a game which actively makes itself a lot easier with each successive play through.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
50 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
But once you zoom in to take a more detailed look at the characters, enemies, weapons, armors, & spells, it is still quite amazing.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
43 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The stylized visuals still look good, especially with fan-made mods and widescreen patches.
Characters
Players who bring up Characters mostly praise it.
24 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Not very in-depth, but it allows much better/more refined character customization compared to the first game which had none of it
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
23 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
The voice acting is of the quality that Final Fantasy X would've baulked at four years earlier.
