Dragon warrior monster 2 isn't a bad game per say but it's completely inferior to the previous game in almost every way.
Dragon Quest Monster 2 is for some reason easier than the first One where you had to make a very competent team of monsters each One of them have some roles like healer/support,melee attacker and spell user,and the the last One is a Jack of all trades,you had to combine them Over and Over again to get good stats otherwise you would lose in the arena or against some of the other worlds bosses.
The second game holds your hand a lot like if you played the first game the same strategies/moves work here thus making the game feel more like a DLC than a proper sequel since there are almost no new moves or move sets to old monsters .
The soundtrack is another disappointing aspect since there are not that many new songs and many of them sound bad(i used the gbc emulator with headphones and had to take them off due to the bad songs).
The story and even the characters are Also inferior to the first game where you had to save your sister that was kidnapped by a Monster from another world,here the story is Goofy and doesn't take itself seriously which sucks.
The game introduced a new type of monsters(Water ones)and added sea navigation but this isn't enough to justify a sequel.
Overall just play the first game and ignore this One than go to joker 2.
