I find the dialogue in Boktai The Sun is in your hand very good

My childhood self still has PTSD over the star magician

Great video ! I LOVE the GBA (i bought a GBA-SP in 2004\5). In 2007 i dicovered that the console can run decent 3D games (that year i bought Driv3r for the GBA). Driv3r was my first 3D game, and my fourth game at the time after Super Mario Bros 4, Alien Hominid and Mario Kart Super Circuit. Since 2007 i started to collect all the 3D games that i can find. Some of my favorite ones are : - 2006 FIFA World Cup - ATV Quad Power Racing - Big Mmutha Truckers - Cars Mater National Championship - Colin McRae 2.0 - Corvette Anniversary - Crazy Taxy Catch a Ride - Driv3r - Ford Racing 3 - GT Racers - Hot Wheels Stunt Track Challenge - Ice Nine - 007 Nightfire - Karnaaj Rally - Kill Switch - Killer 3D Pool - Lego Drome Racers - MX 2002 Featuring Ricky Carmichael - Monster Truck Madness - Monster Trucks - Need for Speed Underground - Need for Speed Underground 2 - Need for Speed Most Wanted - Need for Speed Carbon - Ozzy & Drix - Payback - Quad Desert Fury - Robot Wars Extreme Destruction - Street Racing Syndicate - SSX 3 - SSX Tricky - Serious Sam Advance - Smashing Drive - Smuggler's Run - Sonic Battle - Spider Man 2 - Star X - Starsky & Hutch - Stuntman - Taxi 3 - Tokyo Xtreme Racer Advance - Tony Hawk's Downhill Jam - Top Gear Rally - Trick Star - V Rally 3 - Wing Commander Prophecy

somehow it feels like dusk dawn was meant to be played before you play the original. bc you get hyped up so much for the old squad and also the game is easier...

I really really liked tales of phantasia. The only real thing i wish was different was controlling cless in combat. Whenever you swing it takes away control of the character.

I want to get 007 night fire. I can't believe it can do fps

15:26 Uh... Pink? Pretty sure that cartridge is BROWN.

Thanks Chibi very cool

Hello! Thanks for your video!! I got this game the other day and I loved it! But I always knew about its bad reception, so I wanted to understand what was so bad about it. So, again, thank you! I'm not into turn-based RPG games honestly, so I wouldn't understand on my own. You were very fair in criticizing the quality of the music and the appearance in general, I always found it charming and retro so I didn't mind, but yeah, the drawings were... interesting. And with all due respect, I have to disagree with you on the touch-screen system, if anything, it makes the battles more engaging, just a few of those POW moves were really difficult (mostly Tails and Cream's) and for that, you can get the Chao that you already mentioned, I never saw that as something negative, you just face a difficult and you can get a unique upgrade/equipment to deal with it. And again, I really liked the touch-screen system, if anything, they could try this again with a rhythm-system or something (like how you have to press the buttons in the Miku games)

camelot could make a prequel about how alchemy got sealed ...

I never use Djinn for combat for the Djinn stealing boss wasn’t too bad.

-The Beginning Of GS1 When The Boulder Crashes Ontop Of Felix Always Had Me Shook... 😢

If Camelot won't do it, let the Octopath Traveler guys remake 1&2, or do 4. Please. Let us rediscover this masterpiece.

The GBA version was my introduction into the tales series. I had a lot of fun playing it, but I can see what you mean about us being robbed after seeing some of these clips.

(No new GS announced at this past Direct) Like with DK, they're saving a new Golden Sun game for Switch 2

why is this video in J's Reviews' playlist lol

I got this in my feed randomly and I gotta say, seeing you miss so many of the POW commands hurts my soul as someone who's beaten this game multiple times over. The action commands weren't even all that new if you consider how Elite Beat Agents came out 2 years prior and that's the entire game. Aside from that, I agree with a lot of what you said. A very unpolished RPG with a lot of good ideas and very solid writing held back by its own budget. I just can't help but love it as the one Sonic game I actively replay.

I know this is old, but i would have appreciated clear markers in the video separating your talk on games, its hisory, the console itself, etc. Like you already organized the video that way so putting a vusual cue and chapters would have been nice. I dunno, it was a good vid.

The color saturation on the GBA version is 100% because of the fact that the original GBA didn't have a backlight, a lot of early GBA games had really high color contrast to compensate.

I wish we’d get a Tales of Phantasia, Destiny, Eternia, Destiny 2 and Rebirth remasters akin to Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster using the PSP versions (Destiny 1 didn’t have a PSP port but rather use its PS2 remake) as basis’s while we wait for the next entry. Probably won’t be until 2026 or later but I’m patient. That would be awesome. I felt that Symphonia’s remaster was somewhat disappointing because it omitted Dawn of a New World which is why I didn’t bother picking it up but I’m patient for a new entry. I want a remaster of Legendia or Abyss.

I’ve always thought the DS launched too soon (should’ve waited a year) and thought it was the cause of the GBA’s early death. I wish that system was supported up until 2009. Why didn’t the 6th Gen last longer?😭 Don’t get me wrong, I really did enjoy the DS and its games. The PS5 and Series X/S should’ve done the same thing.

God... I still havent finished Lost Age, (or Chrono Trigger...), I really should just watch a playthrough. It sits in front of me my desk, but I have my gaming PC... I beat the original back in the day, and a few years later I started on Lost Age, got the boat, didnt know where to go, and havent touched it in like, over 15 years. I started Dark Dawn and didnt get far in that either but i've heard before how it was a let down. A shame really.

I love this game. One of my fave SNES/SFC games.

The battle backgrounds look like layers. Overall the game has a effect that looks like a oil painting

Its funny to hear how much you like the Dungeons in Dark Dawn for exactly what I dislike about them :D To me they are a bit to short and I would have enjoyed them just a bit longer. I personally dont feel like I got to lost in the previouses entrys dungeons since I felt like they folded very neatly. You very often head like two or three spots you cant walk through and when you advanced in the dungeon you were able to push a pillar aside or sth to unlock a fast way to the previous section which for me gave the dungeon a feeling a well folded space instead of a tube.

I just want t say golden sun 3 is a rancid pile of dog shit that completely discards all the old character development and story lines and I hate it and hope it burns in hell

I am going to remake golden sun 3 in a completely different way as it should have been. I just need a team of people willing to copyright infringe

Problem with Dark Dawn is it wasn't an upgrade from previous game as Lost Age was from the first. Lost Age granted so much depht to the world, the mechanics, the story, the equipement, on the same console, it was astonishing at the time. When few years later Dark Dawn came up, there was basically nothing new. The best equipement is exactly the same as the previous game, same names and stats, same amount of djinns, same summons except just one new. It was disappointing for someone who had beaten the two previous because you knew by a certain point that the game held no surprises for you, every character being an archetype of early heroes.

"Wrong time" Exactly, it's why the Golden Sun franchise is cold as the grave right now

Dude that boss theme is probably one of my favorite tracks in the entire game. Why do so many people dislike it?

You gave Issac Felix’s sol blade? Crazy.

For those interested in getting rare forge items: Running in and out of the sanctum in yallam is also just as effective and is quicker. If you’re playing on the switch like I did. Fastest way to soft reset: Hold down ZL and ZR go back to game selection immediately reload software. It’s annoying and cheesy, buts it’s the fastest way to get something like Excalibur without farming orihalcon. Because THAT is annoying. Also: Some enemies drop even rarer items notably ones that ivan, sheba, mia, and jenna can hold. And they can all be easily/accessibly RNG manipulated if you’re willing to do a little leg work reading the golden sun wiki.

Man after the recent years of AAA releases, I’ve fallen back into old reliables, been reliving my childhood with the delta emulator on iOS

Felix or Issac would be pretty cool in a smash game :)

3:56 Came from Js vids Heard Kingdom hearts ost Subbed

I find myself always returning to complete this game, ive done it like 30 times already haha

Honestly the only thing that made me dislike the game was the slow talking and exposition and animations with no way to speed up the process, that and that theres a ponr like why why does that exist

I swear if Camelot ever makes Golden Sun 4, it will make everything in dark dawn story wise make sense

I hope you return someday, but ultimately what made your channel so special is right in the description: you did it for fun. And if it isn't fun anymore, I would rather have this be the way you go out than have you spiral into paid promotions, burnout, etc. I'll always respect your videos and passion. And I'll always anticipate hearing you on UC. Have a nice day Ryan

The points of no return were the worst. I can forgive pretty much everything else to an extent. I don't care for the new unleash system, the plot relied far too heavily on the assumption there would be another game, the combat was probably the easiest in a series known for easy fights, but the points of no return are the worst part. Go left or go right? Choose wrong and you'll never be able to go the other way again without starting a new save file! The other two games would only temporarily cut things off until you set up the game for data transfer! You forgot the ankhs were a new weapon type alongside bows and knuckles.

love it too bad the Game boy advance version is CRAP and its the only one that actually LEFT Japan.

Dark Dawn was certainly an attempt to start the next story after the original Duology. The set up was good, but then the story was more "Nice job breaking it, Hero" after the "But thou must" story beats of the enemy party. Also, the final two additions to the party felt rather shoehorned(the last one especially) without any real meaningfulness. I was excited after finishing the 1st two games into see what happened to the world and the original party members. While I enjoyed DD, I never bothered to finish it...

Narrative wise this game does a poor job of endearing the player as to why the next generation should play a role in handling the doomsday trigger I didn't play the game very far, but I did pick up on this aspect of it interpreting Isaac's dialogue. I got the sense that he was coaxing his son into adopting responsibility. Being an extension of Matthew's conscience, you as the player get a firsthand account of this rhetoric Unfortunately, if you do have some conception of tragedy behind the series, this merits a bit of gaslighting on Isaac's part. In his narrative, the main catlyst of his thrust towards vigilance comes from the series antagonist Saturos. And we learn way early on that he had a gang of other zealots championing the same cause. This is later reinforced as you interact with Karst and Agatio. They all bear the hallmarks of zionism Point being that Isaac and Garret bear a heavy burden because of outside pressures that place them into the heart of the plot. Older Isaac seems to embellish chaos or at the very least, take a passive stance toward his part in the tribulation. So by extension, Matthew is carrying on aimlessly. We don't get to really see what lessons about psynergy that have been imparted toward him While I recognize that this is a game and the character of Matthew is just an avator for the player to pilot and navigate, that doesn't make it that Isaac and Garret should have selective amnesia in how to approach a crisis Imagine if superman had a kid and was like I'll be over here making tea for Lois while you take on Darksied's legion of special forces. Go get em champ! Unless he is incapacitated (which would make a decent character arc for his son/daughter by the way) superman should definitely appreciate the gravity of the situation. And while he and other supers might be able to defend themselves just fine, it's his role as Earth's protector which should warrant cause for concern. We confide in a hero because he has proven to be able to act and control the situation And again I know that I compared Isaac with Superman. Nevertheless, Isaac is a hero. At the very least he should be in league with Kraden as well as other provincial leaders about how to read a play and commit to damage control. Both he and Felix know what they wrought by lighting the lighthouses If anything, our heroes should be in the position they _were_ in that they aren't behaving as a militia but purposing themselves as jr adepts to field research how alchemy has been affecting the world I think too often major production studios give in to the pull of hero worship when designing their brand. So much that they forget that say Batman or Spiderman started off as people. In making a game, you can emphasize epic elements, but you have to warrant what draw compels peope to explore the characters and their functioning roles through exploration If you're going to start people off at square one, it has to be the case that we learn how to engage as much as the characters do. So design a project around how to immerse the player into fictitious elements and conditions. The old games started us off with the move command and djinn. A new game should purpose the player to interact with the environment in ways that transcend 2D or even 3D space That's the whole point of sequels. Pushing the bounds of convention as a way to convey properties and values. Without that, we would stay in pong territory and not Mario Odyssey

Golden Sun The Lost Age is an unbelievable good experience. I'm playing it again after a while and I can't stop thinking of how freaking sick was the mind of the people who designed these puzzles for God sake. It is. Absolutely. Insane. There's no a single moment of easiness in this game. Every single dungeon is a challenge and you don't have time to take a break. In the first GS game I never found myself in the need of running away from a dungeon to start all over again like in this one, just because I was completely lost and confused, but solving these way more complex puzzles was a really satisfying feeling. I don't feel however that bosses fights are that hard as you described. Poseidon, for instance, was incredible fast and easy to beat. There are also a couple of things I don't agree with about your vision of the story and characters. I don't like the idea of putting both parties to fight. They were close friends from childhood, they just didn't have the opportunity to talk and explain each other their motives. Plus, there is Kraden, which wouldn't let them do that just like that and would act as an intermediary to try to calm things down. So I find more sense in what actually happens in the game. I also hate the way Sheba is written. In the first game, we are told by other characters how fragile she was. Always crying and suffering in silence. She always looked like a victim who needed protection. So I don't buy this Sheba acting as a though girl who doesn't give a fuck about anything, goes around teasing others and sometimes even disrespect older people just like that. I would love to see her being a shy, quiet girl who lacks self confidence and needs to be reminded by others how strong she can actually be. I don't buy Kraden either. In the first game he couldn't go for the elemental stars himself at Sol Sanctum because the ground was slippery and he could have fallen, but who cares, now the man climbs mountains and rides tornadoes. Alex is disappointing, big time (I think we agree on that one). I always expected more of him, like he would be the final boss or something like that. And about the two villains of this game, I feel like they're kinda forgettable, unlike Saturos and Menardy who always felt like an actual threat. And seriously, their village is about to disappear but they prefer to blackmail a bunch of kids that they underestimate to do the big, important task while they chase another boy they don't even know how to find just to revenge the girl's sister? That's immature as fuck. PS: I really liked the video though.

9:50 honestly, i miss that era, the battle pause let spells take their time, it was slow? yes sure, but nowadays we have the no pause spell tales of, and its a clusterfuck when you don't understand a thing what is going on. maybe im old, but i like my battles to give some time to breathe.

speaking of Zelda II, i like to joke it was the first incarnation of the Linear Motion Battle System. and the overworld enemy spawns look a lot like the dark shadow creatures later used in Tales of Symphonia. Link even has skills he learns with masters around the world.

I have a backlit screen in mine

The ridiculously long (and stupid) dialogues and the hand-holding killed it for me back in the day. I couldn't even finish it. That's how much it bored me.

I remember playing this game waiting for the snes translation patch to complete. We'll worth it really great game

Concerning fast travel: They didn't need to make it a "warp". It could be implied that they simply walked/used whatever form of transportation (like the boat) to automatically go wherever it is you are fast traveling to. Thus, if the location you want to go to is blocked off for some reason, the option to fast travel to that specific location would be greyed out in the fast travel menu. One example of some games using this kind of method for fast travel is the Trails of Cold Steel series, and it works just fine there. Anyways, I played this game again last year (it was my second playthrough, in fact - the first playthrough being when it originally released). Although I'm still disappointed with what we got, I have to admit that it was better than I remember it being. The cliffhanger ending sucks though. >_>
