Riff Machine 2,105 Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 So this dropped yesterday. I plan on picking it up today, but did anyone else grab it? I've read some good reviews on it that it sticks true to the original. Probably one of my fav RPGs from back in the day.

GazzaGarratt 10,887 Posted November 18, 2023 Share Posted November 18, 2023 A mate of mine at work is getting it. I want it, purely for the turn based action. Oh how I've missed that. Looking at the trailer I do wonder how large it is. For it to have minigames and rematch bosses, it does feel like its more just trying out the experience with their characters more than any type of story.

If you're looking for a good, turn-based style retro RPG, get Sea of Stars. Or this I suppose. Lol. I picked it up yesterday and have gotten a bit into it. It plays out pretty much the same as the original. You can even change the music to the classic style rather than the remake soundtrack. It looks and plays exactly as I remember it. I've heard that it's not very long, but I'll update myself when I've finished.

Riff Machine 2,105 Posted December 21, 2023 Author Share Posted December 21, 2023 I finished this the other week. Hot damn, that was fun to play through again. Even the secret boss from the original is in there, and exactly the same. Once you've finished the game, you can access, and challenge more powerful bosses that you've fought previously, and they are tough. It all culminates with another fight against Culex, but an updated, polygon, 3d version that is tougher than the previous versions. It's a damn good fight. If you haven't checked it out, please do. This is a perfect remake of an SNES classic. phil bottle and GazzaGarratt 1 1 *The opinions of Riff Machine do not reflect those of Forever Gaming ;)* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
