Valkyrie Profile (1&2)

[gossamer]

What is it like? Does it have any similarities to Final Fantasy? Whats the battle system, story, etc like?
If anyone can tell me, that would be great.

I know there's some discussions about this: http://www.finalfantasyforums.net/the-world-is-square/valkyrie-profile-13075.html

I've played 1 and it was alright. I still have yet to play 2 though.
