In this video series DreamcastGuy talks about a wide variety of games in a review style format while showing gameplay. New, old, retro, and current gaming are all covered.
Great to see this game getting good reviews. Between this and Tokyo Mirage Sessions, it's good to see a revival of good JRPGs. Great review dude!
It is almost bizarre that JRPGs are making a small come back suddenly haha.
ff7 nuff said
nah it's a deep genre, you shouldn't limit yourself to one game just because it's a great game.
Fav oldschool rpg? Super Mario RPG, Final Fantasy 10, Tales of Vesperia and Legend of Dragoon.
Kleizar
Hold up bro...
FF10 and tales of vesperia are most definitely not old school RPGs.
Great RPGs... not old school.
Breath of fire 3, final fantasy tactics, and xnogears
I really love this game. Reminds me of the gold era of the JRPGs and gaming.
I had no idea I Am Setsuna would be out so soon. I've gotta scoop this one up, seems like quite a rare treat to have such a focused JRPG come out in this day and age.
Favourite RPG:
Definitely Dragon Quest VII. Hell of a game, can't wait for the remake!
I just bought this game and I'm actually pretty excited to start playing it :)
I love the art style and music and it actually has a bit more depth than I expected. Will def pick it up soon.
I'll definitely have to try this. Thanks for the review!
I do not understand why reviewers gave this a low score.
Downloading now. Thanks for the awesome review, as always. :)
My pleasure! :D
For some reason, playing this game reminded me of the PSP game, Jeanne D'Arc. Haha, I can't pinpoint what it is that did so, though...
This game looks excellent, but the only MASSIVE downside that Ive heard people say is that it is extremely short (around only 20 hours).
Kleizar that is a killer for a jrpg :( they usually are well past 50 or even 100 hours! but at least ik I will beat it fully haha
I would get this today if there was a physical release. I'll wait for this to go on sale before buying it digitally.
Same here
there is
its on sale now for 19.99
i always hated rpgs before (because i never played them lol) but one time i tried persona 3 (i know it's not old schook and i am new to this genre :p) and oh my god what was i missing. now my favorite genre is rpg and i have many many games to play old and new :D
Firass, have you tried the xenoblade games? I STRONGLY recommend them.
I have a couple of fav classic jrpgs. xenogears, ff7, breath of fire 4, suikoden 2
+VnDsky thank u brother man
Xenogears always needs more love. Always happy to see another fan of it. :D
+DreamcastGuy I cant believe people don't talk about it as much. it's great overall, cool gameplay, really good story that touches on a lot of subjects and a twist, and the characters are great. They should remaster the shit outta this game
If they remake Xenogears I would be okay with that as long as they do something about the g'damn chair sequence.
+Trynackle word lmfao, soo much dialogue
Nice review, thanks! $40 for digital only in the US. There has been a disturbing trend recently of new games on PS4 not getting a physical release. I Am Setsuna, Dariusburst CS, Firewatch, Layers of Fear, Unravel, The Witness, just to name a few. These are not tiny little insignificant Indie games, they are fairly large, popular, and critically-acclaimed games. We all know where this is headed.
It's going the way of the PC.
Good review, I am going to check it out! Secret of Mana!
On sale for the Switch.
Really enjoy this game. Best square Enix game I have played in a long time. My only con is stat I hate battle voices have to be in Japanese. It's so jarring and takes me out of the beautiful and vivid art style and amazing music. I would really like to hear battle comments in English for a 40$ price tag. FF 6 is my favorite and during the opening I was so excited that it was similar to the long walk to narshe opening. I really hope this division continues to make games.
FFVII and VIII were my favorite JRPG's growing up.. tbh the FF series is really the one JRPG I played.
My backlog is so clogged up, I'm afraid I'll have to wait until it's on sale... or if it gets a physical release.
This game or octopath?
I AM GUNDAM
I think it's good that they are finally getting back to creating RPGs in classic JRPG style. But at the same time I'm also a bit disappointed and sad they only put enough budget into it to basically make it at a mobile game level of standard. One of my biggest disappointments recently was to see that even the FFVII remake was turned into an action RPG. It obviously should have embraced the classic battle system, been a long awaited return of a major FF game going back to classics.
From the rhetoric back at E3 when the company was founded, it sounded to me like this game is a litmus test to see whether this sort of "direction" has enough of a demand to justify a heavy investment. So they may choose to weigh in a lot more for future instalments depending on the outcome. The flip side also exists.... ... .. .
sooo the plot is basically tales of symphonia? :D definitely not hating, but it's just eerily similar, right? oO
the bad of why do i have to beat up so many penguins is not really a bad thing its just a gripe.
how long is this game, i hope its more than 20 hours..... it has to be right?
It is almost exactly 20 hours long. There are also very few side quests. I didnt find the short length to be a bad thing though. It is paced well so you are happy when the ending comes.
I did notice you fighting a ton of penguins!
wait every 10 years? Why does this sound so familiar oh I know it's just like in final fantasy X
I am curious how many hours the game takes to finish due to the high Aussie price of $60
This looks a hell of a lot better than Omega Quintent that I've been playing. Ohh well at least it was only like 3 bucks lol
got it today and loving it
It's a love letter like Child of Light
Secret of Mana and/or Illusion of Gaia
Good games!
Where did you're top 10 go it was up like 10 minutes ago
subbed good stuff
Final Fantasy moving into more of an action RPG genre isn't a bad thing to me, although FF 6,7 and 10 are all some of my favorite games of all time, I like seeing the direction FF15 is going :P
And let's not forget that Square still has Kingdom Hearts which hasn't had a bad game since Re:Chain of Memories (the story was glorious tho)
Some people would argue that dream drop distance is bad I am not one of those people
+Duel Verse Yes, and I mean it's definitely not as good as 2, but I very much enjoyed DDD (everything except young sora and Riku's stupid hair) and will enjoy it again this december except this time with trophies :P
I heard that the game is really short, is it true?
Its on Steam too, man. :P
great show
why this game is not on ps vita
Parasite Eve was my favorite, back in the day.
I replayed that recently and I forgot how AMAZING it is. Seriously, it was way ahead of its time!
yes, now THAT is a game that needs a remaster!
Mother 3 is my favorite
Anyone knows if there is a English version of this game? Trying to buy the game but only see a Japan version. I don't mind the Japan version if can be change to English.
Thank you
For the ps4
The Japanese version on Switch has English translation
U r pronouncing setsuna wrong... dont emphasize the u...
Reminds of yunas journey in FFX
Phantasy Star IV on the Genesis
Good pick, great game. One of my favs
buying on vita
i thought the game wasn't available for the ps vita, or is it?
adeeey j I already bought and loving it
Either you're a troll or you're playing the Japanese version.
Earthbound for sure
This review made me set my mind, BUY THE GAME.
Then, during the checkout... Digital only. Instant turn-off.
Yep, that is a huge letdown. I still think it's important to buy games like this though because it shows companies that we really do want to support more turn based RPGs.
+DreamcastGuy Truth is I'll always try getting an import before purchasing Digital. I just had Heavy Rain x Beyond Two Souls bundle delivered from Europe last week because of my hate for downloads.
I understamd some types of games just aren't that popular in certain regions, but at least they could do like Song Of The Deep which released limited discs for those of us who truly care about games as an artform, deserving to be kept and held... At least that's how I see it.
Anyway, love your videos man! Been watching for a while now, don't think I've subbed though, will right this second! keep it up :D
Have you ever tried talking like a normal human being instead of just using that awful voice for a single sentence then cutting to record another one?
Have you ever tried not being an asshole?
Just for fun, in the comments tell me what YOUR favorite old school RPG is? You all know mine is Final Fantasy VII. :P
FF VII for me too. It's just so epic! 😱
this game on pc aswell?
also, ffvii is my fave aswell along with pkmn silver (if that counts)
+KANKAX XP Yup
final fantasy 5. Dragon Quest is rather lovely too. I actually really want to get this game, but I have too many different games to play in my backlog. Makes spending 30$ to add yet another game to the list kind of difficult, no matter how much I want to support this game idea.
Thanks for the review! Been waiting for this one. :)
