Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Summoner 2 keeps all that was good in its predecessor and far surpasses it. On a purely technical level, the load times between scenes are faster, camera angles are consistently more flexible in the 3-D environment, and the battle reactions are cleaner and more responsive. But it's the story that's really blossomed. The swashbuckling goddess-queen Maia is more likable than dour Joseph from the first Summoner. (Her various outfits and weapons sure are cooler, at least.) There's more humor in the story, and it manages to strike its serious notes without sounding ridiculously overdramatic. The voice actors sound like they're really enjoying their roles too, and it was fun (for a change) to listen to the spoken sections. The storyline moves you along smoothly, and the bosses, while tricky, never seem insurmountable. Rather than just some big fight at the end, the goal of Summoner 2 seems to be to help Maia seek her destiny while being the most adored and accomplished--plus best outfitted--queen-goddess-swordsperson she can be. --Garland Withers

Pros:

Vast gameplay with plenty of fun optional quests
Well-organized quest and lore indexes for easy reference
Lots of fighting styles and combination moves
Flexible saving system allows you to back up your game easily

Cons:

Occasional camera angle problems (but fewer than the first Summoner!)
Easy to miss out on one-time chances at optional quests while following storyline
Many long stretches that must be traversed again and again

On a storm-swept ship, the sequel begins...

You are the Queen of Halassar. Thousands have fought and died for you. Millions adore you as the goddess Laharah reborn. Your fate is written in the Book of the Prophets. You are the savior of all creation. But your enemies are strong. The King of Galdyr wants you dead. Sinister factions plot your downfall. The armies of Urath march on your borders. You are forced to talk only in short sentences. Below Munari City, the mysterious Unseen weave a dark conspiracy. Thus begins the tale...

You will battle your enemies in real time, with an all-new, party-driven combat system, and explore over 30 exotic and imaginative 3-D locales, from the tropical isle of Teomura to the bizarre and dreamlike City of Masks. Fulfill Maia's prophecy through an immersive, character-driven story, rule the Kingdom of Halassar, and interact with hundreds of nonplaying characters.

- Satisfying RPG with Good Battle System
I love RPGs but I can't stand the turn-based battle systems. Summoner 2 combines all the great aspects of RPGs (leveling up, collecting treasure, upgrading armor and weapons) with real-time battles making it a very fun and satisfying role-playing game.

Although the story itself was a little too complex, the characters themselves are great to play. There are at least six playable characters, not counting all the beasts you can summon. They fit nicely into standard RPG roles such as ... Read More

- Couldn't get into the game
I got this game used for $6 bucks plus tax at Electronics Boutique. My expectations weren't high, and I bought it partially based on other reviews I'd seen online.

I like RPGS and I like fighting games, so I thought for sure this would be a hit with my tastes. Instead this game manages to take the worst of both genres and combine them into annoyance and frustration. I dislike RPGS that make use of a ridiculous number of buttons and menus, and I hate the cheap-out combos in fighting ... Read More

- Sooo many sidequests. . .
One of the things that makes Summoner 2 so interesting, so ultimately re-playable, and yet, at least the first time around, so frustrating is the truly bewildering number of sidequests (or "Optional Quests", as they're called here) you are assigned in this game. I'm a fairly straightforward gal. If someone has an assignment for me, I'm going to focus on it; or, if I can't, I'm going to wander around anxious and frustrated until I at least know exactly what I'm supposed to do and how to do it. Also, ... Read More

- The Difference in Gamers, and a good Game.
First if all, this is my first game review so please give me a bit of slack. After seeing a few of the reviews for this game, I was quite simply appalled. True, the camera is a bit odd at times, and a few minor clipping issues do get a bit annoying, but this is a very good game. As for awkward combos' and pausing, I often do not get hit for many battles straight with the character I'm controlling, and I think it's more of a matter of skill than a simple hack n' slash. I myself have yet to complete ... Read More

- Destined To Be Lost In The Shuffle
Would be a pretty fine game, if not for the fact that in the last year I beat Lord Of The Rings: The Third Age and Champions Of Norrath. S2 is okay, but I would start elsewhere for your RPG needs.

The set-up is your basic hack-and-slash game. Run around, pound pound pound on enemies and find items that help advance your quests. Gameplay allows you to equip characters without too much hassle and switch among characters (a necessity!) with ease.

My big hangup with gameplay were ... Read More
