I feel bad for the Saga and Mana series, they can't seem to catch a break. There's so much magic in these games, and a little clunkiness, but they have so much going for them. Thanks for this.
Awesome review man. You have fully convinced me to get this game, especially with how your decisions end up effecting the game and stuff, which sounds amazing. Thanks for the review!
It's funny I was not really expecting this game until I tried the demo and I got hooked immediatelly. This might be the most fun I've had with a JRPG in a decade and the fact that's it's a remake blows my mind. Great review, it's cool to see content from outside the demo for once ( SE has been very careful with what they showed and showed so little as a result). I slightly wished they would have added a few more spells and one or two new weapon types but just having the original remade is already so amazing.
I've been a fan of this game for 30 years from Japan. The franchise enjoyed cult popularity in Japan in the 90s, due to its high degree of freedom for a JRPG, high difficulty, and deep addictive aspects. In recent years, Square Enix has been viewed critically in Japan, but this game has been praised in Japan. While retaining the appeal of the original, it has completed some of the unfinished parts, increased the difficulty options, and made the game more accessible to many people.
You guys are definition of professional review the detail and understanding of game mechanics how you explain them is simply chefs kiss thank you a million for being around
Romancing SaGa 2 got me into this series (I did NOT understand SaGa Frontier as a kid lol...fumbled my way through beating at least one of the stories tho!). The generation mechanic is one of my favorites in JRPGs and the final boss is the most insane and cool final boss maybe ever. Incredibly hyped for this release. I know a lot of games just came out but i promise this will scratch an itch you didn't know you had. RS2 began my SaGa craze and I can't get enough of this series.
Some of the bosses feel like they were throwing darts at a board to see what crazy bosses they can add lol. The final boss is still very difficult, lol
As someone who owns multiple SaGa games, this was good to hear. It's always a great thing to see an RPG series get modernized without sacrificing the series identity. Just like Visions of Mana.
@@date5960 as a fellow gamer dont sleep on romancing saga play the demo and check out the preview its very different then other games in a good way - at 1st i was like meh ill past but after playing and seeing a preview im hooked
the amount of work goes into this game was unimaginable, all scenery and unique places was handcrafted. romancing saga 2 was already a gargantuan game with more than hundreds of places to visit , but this remake further expand it together with the combat mechanics. i dare to say this is the JRPG of the year for me , even more so than metaphor re-fantazio.
@@Particle_Ghost I wouldn't say massive downgrade, Ys X is still pretty dang good. Plays really well and the gameplay is unique and Alot of fun, Carja is a great female character to I like almost as much as Dana 9 was great also and I admit better then 10, 8 is a masterpiece and the Magnum opus of the series so far however. 10 isn't as good as it could of been but it's still a really good ARPG and game, it's prob my #4 fav Ys game
Haha I have a couple more skills to unlock. I suck at guides. I did test using strats from a guide of the original on a boss here and it actually worked lol - Azario
I tried the demo. For anyone who never play the original should try this. I might buy it maybe next few month, this month already bought too many game 😂
The Final Emperor is the character you’ve named at the beginning of the game. The Final Emperor comes in when you have defeated five of the seven heroes, which are the game’s plot device, akin to the eight Benevodons from Trials of Mana. The generation system operates on the 8-to-15 principle. The number of event points (EP) determines if a generation jump occurs. In the original and ArtePiazza’s remaster: • If the current generation’s EP is 15 or above, a generation jump occurs. • If the current generation’s EP is in the range of 8 to 14, whether or not a generation is triggered is determined by the current generation’s battle count. If the battle count is above 240, a generation jump occurs. If the battle count is 240 or below, the game takes the battle count and divides it by 16 and takes the remainder to determine whether or not a generation jump occurs. If the remainder is above the pre-black screen EP, the game continues as normal. If the remainder is below or equal to the pre-black screen EP, a generation jump occurs. • If the current generation’s EP is below 8, the game continues as normal. The number of years passed as a result of a generation jump depends on the battle count.

I've always loved SaGa. They're just so fun and challenging. Really hope it doesn't die. Loving the remake and looking forward to a Saga Frontier 2 remaster and hopefully a RS3 Remake some day.
Would you believe that the JRPG that has 20+ recruitable characters, a town building mechanic, multiple choices that affect the story, and non linear story progression came out before Final Fantasy 6? Most of the mechanics here were there in 1993.
Saga Frontier 2 was my favorite game for a long time in my life. Now the Dragon Quest franchise took it's place,.II've played this demo, i was worried about the linearity of it,, but with your review i'm relieved, because the game seens to have a lot of exploration. I love it the battle system, i cannot wait to put my hands on the full version. Thanks for the review.
I never heard if this game in my life. I'm gotta check out the demo for sure. This game seems incredibly unique for such an old title and incredibly clunky even as a remaster. I tried Mana demo but it didn' clicked with me, this one may do it though! I never played in any JRPGs to be honest. Apart from Final Fantasy XIII Metaphor is my second actual jRPG that I enjoyed/played in not counting western homages like BattleChasers(loved it) ofc.
Man I love jrpgs that let me dive balls deep into them. Still working on Metaphor Refantazio and then there's the DQ3 remake next month. Jrpg fans are eating GOOD this season.
Lets just say the same team that did Trials of Mana did this. So you know it SHOULD be very good. They know how to modernize the old jrpgs very dang well. They way I knew EXACTLY where to go in Trials of mana cause of the memory from the Snes days. They didn't do no weird changes to the map they did it just right. There's so many good quality of life and easy menus and ui/ux
This is gonna be my first Saga game! I generally dont like modern looking RPG's... but this one looks to hit a sweet spot stylistically and I was always a turn based guy. Super excited for this!
I orderdd the game from Amazon. Waiting for it to come. I did not know you have to keep changing characters. IDK how I feel about that. Currently playing Metaphor Refantazio and loving it.
I am a huge nerd for SaGa and this remake is amazing. Also, it runs great on the Steam Deck too... I set it to exclusive fullscreen, 1080p, Dynamic Resolution on and it's nearly always 60fps while still looking probably better than the Switch port. Unfortunately the minor drawback is a dearth of grafix options so to turn of the noxious motion blur you'll have to edit an INI fill but these Unreal settings are well documented at least. On more powerful hardware you can also use this to switch the shitty TAA to MSAA or something, and increase the LOD. Console friends RIP.
already ordered, demo got me hooked and it seems it´s not even close to all the mechanics to play around with in the full release, really like the graphics and designs. now I just gotta finish the last month of refantazio before release. I need to split in three to have time to finish all the games I want to play..
I say this as someone who wasn't so wild about the OG version, I quite enjoy this now. While the system is more complex than most turn based RPGs I've played, it's no longer crypitc and downright frustrating to play. Even on classic.
@@NoisyPixelNewsyeah, you summed up my thoughts on this game quite well. Everything you said was spot on. And I agree, it does deserve an 8/10. It ain't perfect, but IMO it's the best and most functional Saga game. I can't believe I almost skipped the remake entirely.
I played the 2017 "remaster" of Romancing Saga 2. It was a decent game but ngl all the mechanics just seemed needlessly complicated. mainly the level up mechanics
There is Legend of Legacy which is another SaGa-lite! Recent SaGa remasters (and especially this remake) have done a lot of work to streamline their systems so if you want something like Alliance Alive, the Romancing Saga Minstrel Song remaster is excellent. It is way harder and more direction-less than TAA though but very rewarding. There is also The Last Remnant that has a more straightforward storytelling structure though the battle system is more about commanding squads instead of single party members. This RS2 remake seems like the perfect modern attempt at the series.
I've never played Romancing Saga games, is this like Agarest Generations War where sthe story goes generational? is there romance in the game to continue your lineage etc?
No it isn’t like Agarest and you kinda just die and choose a successor. There is a couple romantic scenarios, but your characters die so fast that those core stories are mostly found in the seven flashback scenes
Sad that this might just be overshadowed by Metaphor. Despite being based on an over 30 years old game, it feels in many ways more ambitious and daring than that game. And then there is of course the marketing that will completely drown out anything.
I think JRPG fans like a variety. I have no interest in playing Metaphor, even though I think it looks cool. This is more of my jam when it comes to JRPGs. I like that we have options lol - Azario
Finally someone used original voices in a review. The moment I hear a crappy dub I’m immediately quitting the video. I’ll try the demo. Looks interesting but in the other hand, I love JRPGs mostly because of characterization and character bonding. This is missing here since you have many generations to play. I have a mixed feeling about it to be honest.
Thank you for yet another excellent review. I'm gonna buy a physical PS 5 version, and thankfully, unlike Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake, this hasn't been censored or changed to pander to the "modern audience". It was an easy choice to not buy the Dragon Quest game after learning of that. But this is something I can't wait to add to my collection.
I dont really understand how the generations work. Is there a limit to how many generations you have to beat the game? Is there just a set number of heirs to choose between? I apologize. Ive never played the original.
No. If your full party dies in battle you also start a new generation. The idea is kinda rouge like where you share abilities and skills across generations
Is their an option for English? Or is it only Japanese with subtitles? Not that I mind subtitles if their done well, just having the option for English language would be nice
My feedback is there but I think only the devs will really see it. The game lacks some quality of life and performance and optimization are a thing. Feedback is great to improve games.
@@NoisyPixelNewsof course there are other videos, usually stories are a major aspect for a jrpg, and given that like in the desc that the generational story telling seems to be of importance i just expected a review to mention it. Im just sharing feedback, since the review lacks that component in a jrpg.
They removed male and female from the game, they covered the female more, they took the crosses off the religious people and instead put a trident, just some of the things they changed, and the DQ creators even complained about it.
I feel bad for the Saga and Mana series, they can't seem to catch a break. There's so much magic in these games, and a little clunkiness, but they have so much going for them.
Thanks for this.
I think the problem is there are just rpgs releasing all the time. I'm busy with metaphor and Ys 10. So these games get pushed to the side.
Honestly this review sold me. I don't think I've ever heard you more excited while discussing a game. Great review!
Ah I’m glad! My wallet is screaming too
@@NoisyPixelNews wallet is screaming and my free time is screaming- still have maybe about half of Metaphor to complete. 😭
Same!
Lol very same feeling but it will have to wait till next month they sold me on Re fantasio already this month :)
Does this game have English voice acting?

Never played a SaGa game before but this looks very appealing.
Probably my next game after Ys X.
Ys X Nordics is a massive downgrade from the previous games. Ys 8 is the pinnacle, 9 is ok but the world in tiny in comparison to 8.

Rs2 was a better game but I think if they remade 3 on this style it would elevate it
@omensoffate ooo they would REALLY need to nail that awesome intro. The original RS3 opening was awesome
is the story good? and what about te main characters from generation to next? do they have good characterization?
They aren’t really present. The “story” is mostly about the seven like I said, and yes, it’s good.

Just realized yesterday that this game released. Wonder why it's being ignored by so many major gaming publications.

I am curious about this game. Is it required to have played RSG1, before playing the 2nd game?
I've never played romancing saga, should I play the first one before this one? Are they connected?
Is this a good entry point for someone who has never played a Saga game before? I really wanna play this but I'm completely unfamiliar with the series
I want this game to do well but feel like this won't hit square targets and will be sent out to die with the flood of games this week

Could you kindly enlighten me, how DQ3 is censored? Curious to know how censored is censored
@@mogberry2139 it might be insignificant. but DQ3 remake is censored female warrior outfit , both art work and in game character sprite.
They removed male and female from the game, they covered the female more, they took the crosses off the religious people and instead put a trident, just some of the things they changed, and the DQ creators even complained about it.
lol same funny how that works despite people gaslighting us and denying reality
i'll wait for Dragon Quest 3 2d remake
first
Love you
