Same bullshit as the first. The teeming hordes of skeletons and ogres and wizards of the evil barbarian empire have exactly one trick, bum rush you from behind and then try to surround you, fanatically to the point where they'll even cast themselves off a cliff if your back is facing one. What's different about this one? I dunno, the graphics and music are a little better I guess.

Oh yeah, I'd be remiss not to mention that the final boss has a clear screen magic attack move just like you, one you can't avoid. I can't tell you how long I've been playing games and clearing the screen with magic attacks where I've secretly thought to myself "you know, I wish the enemies could do that to me too."
