Summary: WKC2 includes a complete enhanced "remake" of the original game with new gameplay and engine improvements from the sequel. Only gamers who have a clear save of the original game can actually play the sequel part of the game. Everyone else mustsuffer play and complete the original game included before moving on to the sequel.
What. The. Fuck.
Maybe someone else can make sense of this for me, but it seems like a really, really terrible decision to make. Obviously some players will want to get through the original before playing the sequel if they did not play it before, for story reasons. But what about players who are interested in playing the sequel but don't want to play the original? Or players who completed the original but cleared out their saves and sold the game? Or players who didn't finish the original, but want to see where the story will go in the sequel? So... so... strange.
