YMMV / Summon Night: Swordcraft Story 2

Go To

  • Even Better Sequel: Compared to the first Swordcraft Story, the game has more colorful art style, larger amount of characters, most with their own Character Development, more diverse environments akin to the Ys games, a refined combat controls, and proper 16-bit music instead of chiptune.
  • Game-Breaker:
    • Swordcraft Story 2 gave a crazy amount of buff on drill: It hit multiple time with down attack command and its rather Difficult, but Awesome Charged attack, sturdy yet economic in term of weapon durability, deals massive damage, can hit above for combating airborne enemies, and Drill special, which cost really cheap deals higher damage than the supposed to be strongest special that sacrifice your weapon if it connects(and its easy to aim).
    • Astral Guard. With how the defense system works, it essentially gives you super armor. Needless to say, it cuts difficulty of many a boss in half.
  • Les Yay: Every night you spend with Dinah as Aera slowly breaks through that Tsundere exterior bit by bit, and she blushes a lot whenever Aera complements or praises her. By the end of the game when Aera says she will be by her side from then on as partners:
    Dinah: I don't have a choice, do I? But if I had one, I would probably stay with you anyway.'''
  • Values Resonance: Like the first, Swordcraft Story 2 is surprisingly progressive for the time that it was released, where same-sex relationship and even nonbinary characters aren't treated as anything out of the ordinarynote .
  • Viewer Gender Confusion: Seriously, is Arno a boy, girl, or neither? Not even they seem to know!
