If you only have money for one, buy the second, as it is better, but then if you like it enough to want the first one you are not gonna enjoy it as much, as all the powers you have from the start in the second chapter, you have to earn them on the first.
Another thing, the game is beautiful, and plays really well, but is not very challenging... is more of a relaxing platformer, were you can explore the world and enjoy the scenery, the characters and try to reach places, more than avoiding danjer and fighting enemies. #lostwindswinterofthemelodias

The only part that i din't like was one that was my fault, skipping the drill tutorial accidentally and then suffering trying to pull it of! #lostwindswinterofthemelodias

It's why i bought Sacred 2, and I know i'm definitely not the only one who purchases (mainly rpg) games based also on singleplayer length.

Just saying, "I'm buying this because it's long" and not knowing if you actually would enjoy it that much is pretty dumb though. #lostwindswinterofthemelodias

The fact that the game is only $10 for 4 hours is fair considering people buy AAA games for $60 that have less than 20 hours of playtime. #lostwindswinterofthemelodias

He/she did say it. It's just that's not a cons to him/her.
That's why I always says "respect the reviewer's respective, but treat the review with your own one". You don't blindly follow the reviewer, but that doesn't mean you refuse to understand their point of view. #lostwindswinterofthemelodias

The graphics and art style, music, controls and gameplay are very well done. However, the gameplay length and lack of replay value in my opinion, are the game's only real issues.
There's honestly just not much to go back to once you beat the game for the first time.
I'll definitely be picking up Lost Winds 2.

2-3 hours is ridiculous considering I dropped around 10 bucks on it.
Mabey a DLC dungeon or two to tide us over would be cool.

That's the same ratio as a 12 to 18-hour game for $60. I got more value out of LostWinds than Prince of Persia.

Either way, the sequel seems to have a few good ideas up its sleeve.

It was a little gem with a lot of potential, but ended up abruptly.

Yes.Yes.Yes.Yes.
I could go on but you get the picture.
For story's sake you should get it if you plan to get the sequel.
It is sort of like Kirby Canvas Curse...

It's up to you if that's worth the price, but for me, reading this announcement made me do a stupid little happy dance around the apartment.
