For PS2, I really want to try both but I am not sure which is better as a whole. Which do you prefer. I am leaning more towards Dark Cloud 2 because it seems like it has more Depth but I am not sure.
It depends what one is looking for since both are excellent games and totally different.
The main difference aside from the one being a platformer and the other being a game is the content.
Dark cloud 2 has so much content you can easily put 100+ hours in that game while in klonoa 2 I can't imagine even close to half of that.
Furthermore dark cloud 2 has many more things aside from fighting fishing exploring pictures inventions etc etc.
If you want a short experience I should go for klonoa 2, If you want to invest some more time than dark cloud 2 is the better option.
dark cloud 2 is a true time pit one can easily spend 100 + hours in that game to 100% it even the main story only takes a long time.
