Was magic important in battle?
I don't believe that magic was all that in this game (Excluding Cure). What is your opinion?

Sometimes it is important but most of the time a good old whack with the keyblade does the trick.

I certainly used magic much more frequently in Kingdom Hearts II. I think it may have had something to do with how much easier it was to restore MP, and how much fun it was to actually use Magic.

How lamezilla... I'm actually posting in a KHII topic...
Anyhow, yea, I thought magic was fairly decent in KHII. The only reason I say that is because you could hit a group of people and kill them off faster if they were lower levels. Regular attacking was all about long chains of powerful hits... but sometimes that just takes too long when you're up against a lot of enemies. Alternatively, if it's a hard enemy you can stay way back and just shoot up your enemy.

Absolutely, i didn't really use Magic that much in KH1 but it really gained a purpose in KH2, particularly Thundaga.
A Magnega + Thundaga combo destroyed all enemies in the Underdrome.
Reflega was a mighty powerful spell as well, and it destroyed enemies.

I used magic a lot in the second game, of course it's not worthless. It's there for you to use, isn't it? Apart from the Keyblade to swing around, there's also magic.

The magic in KH I really put me off using magic at all in II, but later learned that against the likes of those... fat pirate things, Blizzaga was a pretty decent spell to have. After that, I made a lot more use out of Fire and it's upgrades for its damaging area.
And naturally, those curative spells were an essential. Generally though, I didn't use offensive magic TOO much, but definitely more than in I... it was just so poor in the first game.

I found the magic in KH2 more effective than the Keyblade to deal with the more tougher enemies. Particularly Thundaga with it's blast radius, it would easily take out some annoying enemies like those Purple thingies in Tron's world.

Well... at least SOME people agreed with me. (Even though, I used a lot of magic to be honest so that sort of makes me a hypocrite. But I didn't think the magic was strong but it covered some area. So I guess I'm not a hypocrite.)
