[quote name='Blaster man']I know 13-2 is supposed to be better than 13 but exactly how is it better? If I thought 13 was a bad game, is 13-2 worth playing? For reference, 6 is my favorite game in the series.[/QUOTE]
13-2 was much more fun for me than 13. The monster raising is deep and rewarding, and the new characters are far more interesting than anyone was in 13. Nothing important is missable, so you don't have to worry about that, either.
I did wish it were a little harder. You have this really strong monster raising component to the game, but the only challenge you'll find worthy of it is the DLC battles, which is a little unfortunate.
