I have to agree with Sethrigal on this. The game is no where near as good as the first one. However, i would not grade it that harshly, it is till not that bad of a game and is pretty good if you try to forget about the first. I would not recommend this to someone who played the first, but i would recommend it to someone who likes rpgs and is looking for a good game on the wii. If i never played the first-7.5 out of 10, otherwise I give it maybe a 5 or 6.
