I really disliked the first game due to the insane grind, so I was hesitant on this one. However after David's praising, I knew I had to check it out.
Glad I did, it's a fantastic game. Each character's story was interesting and there were also cross path stories involving four sets of two. This addressed another another weak spot from the first game by making the characters actually interact.
Exploration was a lot of fun as the game opens up to you almost immediately. Exploring each area was always a treat with the breathtaking HD2D visuals and music to match. I always enjoyed searching areas to the fullest to find secret chests, shrines, and jobs along the way.
The battle system is almost perfection with a number of systems feeding into each other. Jobs allow you to unlock new powers and really beef up characters, tailoring them to your likings. The game tends to spike boss difficulty compared to the rest of the battles, so I did have to grind a little at times. But nothing close to the first games level of grind.
Couldn't recommend this game enough!

A well done remake that looked and played great. I enjoy the puzzles and Mario's toolkit of moves are actually more than you'd expect.
Most of the base game isn't too challenging, a few more difficult ones thrown in the mix, but apparently gets more challenging post game (I didn't do any of that). I enjoyed playing this in the morning with a cup of coffee.
