Two stars means that I played it but you shouldn't and Final Fantasy II is a game that I would not say to my friend that it was great and you should play it.
PSP version has nice graphics but FF II is still FF II.
I would only advise to play it if you want to complete all Final Fantasy games. Plot is nice with some twist and turns. I love main antagonist just for his pure greed of power and no mercy for anyone. It feels like many people that receive some power if real life act just the same, so I like authentic factor of this story.
What is worst about this FF? Mazes and trap rooms, no balance when it comes to level of monsters progression that makes you grind and I do not mind grind I just do not mind when you come to new area where you should go and you get 1hkoed without saving for some time for no real good reason.
Ahh mazes.. locations in game like dungeons mines and ships looks like some people just randomly placed walls in maze shape for no reason. I understand if it is Labyrinth but not in efficient mines and ships. Gosh.
Trap rooms... On your journeys multiple times you will encounter sets of 8-6 rooms or just random rooms that exist for no reason and if you go to such rooms you will get teleported into middle of the room with encounter rate for battles 1-2 steps and you will have to go to the exist to check another door because one of doors leads to moving plot forward.
As locations have no rhyme or reason every room in the game is possibly trap room, so you will never know where to go and just waste your life.
I would give this game half star because of just how horrible design of most of the things are here, but plot is nice, characters are likeable there are cool locations and I am all about the world in games (not all locations are stupid mazes), so I am giving it 2 stars, which is warning for everyone. Do not play it if you don't have to.
If you want to punish someone for something and you are able to give this game as punishment to finish it would be best thing in the world xD

It is bad, but has some positive values - not redeeming thought.
