ActRaiser I vs. ActRaiser 2

Did you think it was a good idea for the overworld to be cut out in ActRaiser 2? If they make a sequel, would you prefer them to include it again?

re: ActRaiser I vs. ActRaiser 2

The overworld was the best part of the game in my opinion. Overseeing the towns and it's people was fun, making lightning strike down forests and such was fun.

I wish they made another sequel for the new consoles. Ohh, what a great game it could be!

re: ActRaiser I vs. ActRaiser 2

Actraiser 2 was horrible.. the first one was amazingly fun. Why they got rid of the town creating was beyond me, that made the game so fresh and original. Number two had nice graphics and sound, but it just wasn't half as fun as the first one.

re: ActRaiser I vs. ActRaiser 2

I agree with Wu Dynasty, I loved the first game, but I just didn't much care for the second one. I was really looking forward to the second game until I realized that they took out all parts that made the original so much fun.

I would also love to see an up-dated version of the original game. Be even better if they expanded on the town creation a bit more. That was the best part of the game.

I thought ActRaiser 2 was alright, but I agree, it wasn't as fun as ActRaiser 1. So I think 1 was better.

re: ActRaiser I vs. ActRaiser 2

I'm half and half

unlike some here, I found Actraiser 2 to be fun

LIKE others here, even tho Actraiser 2 was fun for me, the loss of simulation mode did make me prefer the 1st over the second one.

re: ActRaiser I vs. ActRaiser 2

Well I was thinking, if they made an updated version of this game it would be a little bit like Black and White Two, with a mixture of a third or first person shooter, like oblivion ... and I do agree that Act 1 was better then 2 because they left out the town creation in the 2.

I was so disapointed when I went out, saw that game, grabbed it, got it home, popped it in and realised that one of my favorite games had become a generic side scrolling platform... nice graphics though...

peace,

re: ActRaiser I vs. ActRaiser 2

The seamless blend of Action and RPG/Godsim was the best thing about the game, and the overworld sections were unique and extremely enjoyable. They also gave the action sequences more purpose. Take that out and the game is forgettable, just as ActRaiser 2 is. But I won't go forgetting ActRaiser 1 in a hurry, that's for sure.

re: ActRaiser I vs. ActRaiser 2

yeah, I prefer the first, but the 2nd one still had the powerful god, good/evil thing. Graphics were somewhat better IMO, altho sometimes it was just odd.

Must point out that I never knew that storywise.... Actraiser 2 came before Actraiser 1. Would explain some stuff.

They oughtta do the same for Actraiser what they did with the Rygar series. MAKE A MODERN SEQUEL. Dare I say, I'd seriously consider a PS3 or 360 just to be able to play that

re: ActRaiser I vs. ActRaiser 2

It'd probably suck though. Most classic 2D games don't transition to 3D too well.
