Love your positivity and enthusiasm. Seems like a lot of channels forgot that games are about having fun.
Yes and also no rumor mongering
@@energyflow7564 yeah really 😎
He is one of the last good ones left.
Couldn’t agree more
True dat
Glad this exists. Still waiting on console versions of Ys Seven and Felghana.
Ys Seven is honestly my favorite of what I've played in this series! I would sell my kidneys to get a ps4 release!
Well techincally felghana already has a console version ....a very long time ago lol
Gamesack we love you guys...
Ys seven and felghana is on PSP
On vita
10:53 "It's not a bad game Adol."
Lol
This was my first Ys game and made me fall in love with the series. Would be happy to play it again with enhancements. Also gotta thank you Johnny for introducing me to the series. Falcom music ROCKS!
Hell yeah!!! It's such an underrated series. I wish more people would recommend it. Especially If you grew up on 90s games. And the soundtrack is unmatched.
Keenan agreed the music really is unparalleled. This was my first Ys game too. I had it on Vita many years ago. Beat it, but am definitely going to double dip to get it on PS4. I have Lacrimosa of Dana on Switch and am loving that too. I have a few other games in the series as well.
Playing through it right now. The music for Forest if Dawn is simply awesome and even the first area!
I love how Johnny always do his best to describe the value of Ys series for newcomers. I never get tired of playing the games in this franchise, from the great soundtrack to the adventure feel of it.
YS games are good the graphics still looks like ps2 even the lastest one looks so bad
@@legendredux1291 its no problem for me, or other people too. only dumb people play game looking for graphics
@@navykaze6660 so you dont want it to improve?
@@legendredux1291 It's not as easy as whether they want to improve. Making realistic looking graphics cost a tons. There's a reason why SQEX decided to release FFVII: Remake in episodic format (hint: because they can re-use all the assets and engine).
Falcom is just a middle size company. They cannot risk investing billion of dollars on developing cutting-edge game engine. Look at what is happening to CD Projek and its Cyberpunk. Even a company with track records of publishing multiple AAA games are still struggling to polish its most anticipated title even when it had been developed for more than half a decade. If that happened with Falcom, the company should have gone bankrupt.
And I think the graphics from Ys III and IX don't look that bad (especially VIII). For me, I still prefer gameplay over graphics any day. If the graphics is not downright ugly to the point that I feel like vomiting, I'm fine the way they are.
@@NuttachaiTipprasert nobody said I want ys to have realistic graphics at least improve from vita looking graphics
The flaming of that moonwalking cat was priceless ahaha
1:57 lol I felt the start was kinda slow but that's funny. Glad vid mentions differences too. Surprised this gets the least for price drops at $15 when felghana and napishtim are like $5. 8:36 I'm embarrassed 😳
I love how you are always so happy talking about Ys. This series is my favorite as well and it's great seeing people who share the love for the series.
I'm getting into this series and I'm having A-blast with it so far
1:48 I absolutely love the Ys series but you're right. Most their games have such an underwhelming & slow beginning (Besides a select few) But Ys games are always super fun. Combat is by my my favorite system. Great story & world settings. And the music is always phenomenal.
Awesome review!!!! Love watching u do your thing! My preorder will be here tomorrow from Amazon so I'm looking forward to getting started. I do also own the Vita version and I loved playing it years ago. Im ready for round 2.
Man I can’t get enough of your vids. Love your show!
Got mine pre ordered from Amazon can’t wait just finished up playing Ys viii thank you Johnny for introducing us to this series I have become a Ys fanatic and have been telling all my friends about it. I also have the Ys viii soundtrack coming in the mail any day now can’t wait the music is fantastic.
Falcom is great, bro.
Someday, if you don't mind turn based games, give the Trails series a try. Music is superb in that one too.
Hijikata Toushirou I have the 3 trials of cold steel games but haven’t gotten to them yet I’m bad when it comes to buying too many games and not playing them too many games not enough time. And I know the 4th is coming getting localized soon too. I think I’m going to have to take a vacation just to catch up.
You got some of the best content. Love your channel and what you do. It’s like listening to a friend talk about video games.
My first Ys game was Ys VII for the PSP and I just finished it a couple days ago. Now I am playing Memories of Celceta on my vita and bought Ys VIII for the switch. Just wanted to say thank you for talking about the series so much that I finally tried it.
You are the guy that got me into Ys. Tried 8 after your review and was hooked. Played through Origins three times to see all the endings. Now I’m playing Monstrom Nox after I saw your review of that as well. Can’t wait to try Nordics next!!
Seeing your reviews before I get my copy always makes me so jealous, but it also helps sate the hype. Thank you for your work!
Ys VIII was my first. Loved it. This looks interesting.
@@webbie7503 good to know, thanks.
Year later comment, but this game is pretty much VIII lite.
I played this back in the day, had a lot of fun and your review made me want to play it again. I had no idea it was coming to PS4. Thanks!
I just started my journey into Ys like 2 weeks ago and finished Chronicles+ and Nightmare Origin(Yunica only so far), your videos have been a great motivation to continue and makes me eager to start Celceta next!
I'm very excited for the later titles and hope to finish them until before Ys X releases for us in the west.
There needs to be more Ys on the Switch.
Lacrimosa of Dana and monstrum nox
Wait... monstrum nox came out on switch??
Tchitchouan Inouane can’t seem to find monstrous nox. What is it?
sure. want to see y's origin
@@TonyTyga90 Monstrum Nox is ys 9 and it has not released state side yet, but localization is confirmed to be "underway".
On another note if ys 9 does come to switch its going to be a very laggy experience. The game struggles hard on base ps4 (I can't read Japanese, so don't ask me about the story).
Johnny, unrelated to this video but I've always been curious to see you do a full review or in depth discussion for Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom. You released a first impressions video at about 11% completion but as far as I know haven't talked about the game since then. It was my first Wonder Boy* game and I was living vicariously through your passion for the franchise at each moment they harkened back to days of old. It was one of those games that reminded me why a much younger version of myself fell in love with the hobby to begin with. Can't thank you enough for bringing these franchises to the forefront once more, as I've grown very fond of Ys and Wonderboy!
All the best,
I'm thinking of getting that game this week, while it's on sale
I just started playing Ys for the very first time after hearing years of you talking about it. Im playing books 1 and 2 on the core grafx mini :)
I bought the collectors edition back in the day. I loved the game. It was my first YS game. Looking up more information about YS in general, I found your channel. I have been subscribed ever since. I love your channel. Thanks Johnny.
This will be my first Ys game. After all these years of watching your videos it's time to give it a go!
@Johnny Thank you for this review wife and I are new to the series so we will be picking this up for our PS4 and get into another series from the amazing studio that gave us Trails of Cold Steel :).
One of my favorite aspects of Memories of Celceta was finding the memories. It helped to give a sense of mystery right from the start, as well as made the adventure more personal for Adol. I think it's a great game, and definitely worth trying.
Great review!
One note about the quest at the tavern: this might be a reference to another Falcom game, Nayuta no Kiseki. The cook in the tavern is terrible but keeps asking for hard to find ingredients.
I think my favorite quest was the one where you had to find gold for some kids. At one point a soldier gets mad at you for finding one on castle grounds. An army general tells him off and apologizes to you. Later in the story you find out that general detests people who push others around because they can. At first it seems like a throwaway moment, but once you learn about him it makes sense.
Also I think having a weapon type pyramid (each type is weak to 1 other) helps to learn the enemies and forces you to use all the characters. I find it odd that in the PS4 release they removed weakness prompts for enemies. If you hit an enemy with a weapon they are weak to the damage number is yellow. If they resist that type the number is purple. It becomes easy to see just from that.
FINALLY: The Sacred Beasts' Lair music slaps on Vita.
just chilling waiting for the PS5 event. Great video to pass the time. Adding this to my Ys games list. Thanks Johnny
That moonwalking is so funny! I laughed aloud in the subway 😆
Got this coming in later today. I'm excited!! More Ys is always a good thing.
Thanks for the great review as always dude. Fingers crossed we get a Ys IX announcement soon!
8am in UK love watching these videos anytime of day.
Great review. Love your coverage of this series. I just got my TurboGrafx 16 Mini and I'm going to starr my first Y's game. I'm excited.
Thanks for this review. I really enjoyed Ys 6 on PSP but haven't played much of the new entries. This looks like a decent re-entry point for me.
Great review pal, I was looking into getting this as just finished YS8, looks ok so I will pick it up 👍
I loved this game, first YS game I ever played and I finished it. Got me interested in 7 and 8 and currently playing those!
Love your ys reviews!
I was wondering if you were going to review this and I am happy you did.I started my Ys journey with 8 and I am finished Ys Seven and Memories of Celceta on vita and I am currently playing Ys Origins and definitely buying MoC on the PS4.
What do you think of Ys Origins so far? Personally, I found it to be the low point of the series. Ugly portraits/character designs, poorly designed gameplay, and a lackluster translation that was literally bought from fan translators by the localization team. If you've never played them, I highly recommend downloading a PC Engine emulator and giving Ys I - IV on there a try, they're really damn fun! I love both modern Ys and classic Ys, but I think I'd have to give the edge to classic Ys.
@@Jordan3DS nah, Origin is great
I recently unlocked the platinum trophy for this game, and it took forever. I couldn't find the one resource point, and I had to play through roughly 70% of the story for the last trophy. I enjoyed my time with it. It's not as good as Ys VIII, but it's definitely worth investing your time into. Great review!
Thank you for clearing up the confusion I had with Ys 4.
This will be my fifth Ys game (Books I & II, Origins and VIII)
Ready for mine to come in the mail on pre-order. Going to love every second of those 20 plus hours of gameplay. Probably going to stretch it 30 playing the normal mode first and then nightmare. Love the music
My Canadian brother, so good to hear your honest voice
Nice use of the Destiny Island music from Kingdom Hearts towards the end of the video!
Thanks for the review. I was curious about this game.
Currently on an YS binge. First started with Origins back in July and had such a blast. I got 8 last week and have been playing non-stop. Almost done and next I plan to get 9 and then will probably grab this afterwards.
This is actually my favorite Ys from the ones I've played so far. I played it first on the Vita and I think I prefer it that way because the smaller screen and the portability really work well for this game. I think this would have been better on the Switch than on the PS4. But idk, there's just something about this game that really drew me in and I fell in love with. I really love the music and the characters. I think logged about 40 hours back on the Vita, after doing everything from 100% the map, the sidequests, and crafting the ultimate weapons.
They just put Ys Viii on sale on the ps store for %50 off! I've been waiting for this moment and the time has come. Thanks for the review and I'm planning to play this game as well.
This is my favorite YS game. The combat is fantastic, its got a solid soundtrack, wonderful dungeon design, and I even really liked the plot of this game. It was all about Adol, and the ending everyone shits on, felt thematically perfect in my opinion. This is a wonderful game all the way around.
I recently played it as my first ys game since napishtim years ago and after finishing it for the 3rd time and starting lacrimosa I just wanted to play celceta. I don't think lacrimosa is bad I just think celceta was better in a variety of ways for me personally. I don't care that ys 8 has better graphics
Hey man love all the content
I beat this on the Vita years ago. Loved it! This is what got me into the Ys games.
I never owned a Vita, so I missed out on this Ys game back then. Until this review, i hadn't known it was rereleased...definitely ordering this online today!
Watching you from japan! Keep it up man
Great video John. Love the Y's series. Could you make a video about Trophies/Achievements , thoughts on them ? Were you addicted to getting them at all ever ? Proudest trophy ? Any platinums you worked hard for ? As a platinum trophy hunter myself just always wondered do you ever think " right i'm going for the platinum on this" or do you just play to the end and pretty much done ?. Thanks for all the great vids over the years.
This was my first Ys game (Well, the Vita version) and I definitely love the series now, although I've known about its music and games for years beforehand-- will very likely pick this up again, haha.
Hilarious I hope on RUclips and there's a new video up one minute ago at 1am! Never expected this at this hour, but glad to have a new video to watch
What's up? Good to see you are doing well. It's been awhile since I was able to stop by and see your content. I used to play Ys VI: The Ark of Napishtim on the PS2 which was really enjoyable and had a fantastic soundtrack. The series has been ongoing for awhile so I am thinking about playing more but I haven't been into the series for a long enough time to know it enough.
I finally played this game! It was my second Ys game after Lacrimossa of Dana, and I felt that Ys joy here again. Adventure indeed! May not be a great game, but it’s quite a good game with enjoyable gameplay. Definitely worth playing!
Ys origins was my first Ys game, then I played Ys8, then I went back and played Ys 1 and 2. I have fallen in love with this series and cant wait to play this.
Played Ys8 in a whim last year for the switch. It was my first and only Ys game & I loved it. Still listen to the music. Makes me want to give this one a go as well.
Never played a single Ys but that soundtrack example i felt like I knew it already. Totally tugged on the nostalgia strings of old animated shows and rpgs!
I'm definitely looking forward to trying out Memories of Celceta! I started out with YS8 and loved it. Hopefully we'll get YS9 this year as well.
We'll probably get ys ix next year on ps4 (in English of course) after cold steel 4 releases on switch.
Seems like you're doing much better Johnny. Stay healthy!
Hey I like this review 😊
Just finished the dragon ball manga John...and you upload this 5 minutes later..gonna be a good day
Funny thing is, this game was the one I wanted to play right after finishing Ys VIII two years ago, just because the battle system was similar. And here I am today, after two years, having played Ys 1 & 2, Oath in Felghana, and Ark of Naphistim, finally beating Celceta on PS4 four days ago. I also ended up finishing Ys Origin yesterday.
Great review 👍
This game looks fun. I enjoyed ys 1 and 2 with that bootleg touch enemies to hit em mechanic. It was cool and unique on the PSP remake. I love how this guy is so obsessed with ys like a little boy its awesome
When you grew up from the snes days, you can deal with the graphics.
Eh, I’d say *objectively* a decent amount of snes games look better than some modern games
@@rambact5769 I agree, it all depends on the art style. I really dislike it when people say "3D > 2D, better textures = better graphics" when that's not true in the slightest. A lot of modern games go for a very bland, lifeless style that has no charm or value to it, meant to be functional and nothing else. I also feel that the switch to HD brought some really ugly lightning engines that make some games look 10x worse than they could look for some reason. I'll always judge a games visuals by how appealing they are, graphical fidelity has no meaning.
Just dropping by to respectfully say you are crazy. Pixel art holds up better against the test of time than most 3D games.
Not just the snes but when you grew up with the ps1 you don't worry about graphics
I grew up with PS1. I can stand everything all the way down to SNES lol
I have this game preorder.I never played it on the vita since i passed on the portable.Good to hear this port get's the job done.I wasn't expecting much far as the graphics goes since this game was originally made for the vita.Regardless i'm looking forward to playing ys memories of celceta,once my copy get's here.
I couldn't finish the vita version because of my hand and cramping I'm so happy this came to the ps4 I'm still waiting on my ps4 copy can't wait to jump in again!.
I played Ys 8 and ys book 1 and 2.
Just finished Oath of Felghana. Can't wait to start with this one!!!!
I finished this game today. Took me about 30+ hours. Loved every minutes of it. I didn't wanted it to finish. .....
It's the first Ys game I played on the Vita and I think it is a very good action RPG. I love the characters and the music is awesome. I do not care about the old graphics, but it seems that the framerate has been improved at least. Anyway it is a great introduction to the modern style of Ys games !
I know you've made lists of your favorite jrpgs, but I'd love to hear your take on a list of jrpgs you feel are "essential" for people who have never got into the genre. Sort of a jrpg taste platter if you will.
Glad many other players will be able to enjoy this awesome game, I played on the Vita, and I don't like to play the same game 2 times (there are other games to be played). Anyway, it's a really nice games, gameplay and music is very compelling and exciting.
Definitely worth your money and time.
I'm excited to give this a shot. I haven't played Ys since the PSP games.
I have got into the Ys games and completed all the older 2d ones, and just recently started memories of Celcata, so this is the 1st 3d Ys game I've ever played.
Imo, it's great. It's such a huge step up from the previous games, not trying to say anything bad about the older games in the series.
It brought back some recent memories for me. I have been hardcore into the Trails Series and having completed the Liberl Arc and half of the Crossbell Arc started Trails of Cold Steel 1, and because I had got accustomed to the graphics of those older games, was left in something of a stupor.
I'm quite torn in regards to the graphical differences between the Cold Steel games and everything that come before it.
It honestly looks like a top down version of Ys 8. Even the dash animation is nearly identical. If it ever makes it's way to switch I'll give it a go!
Well, Ys 8 is built on the foundations made by Ys Seven and Celceta. If you like 8, those too are pretty dam close. Not as good as 8 but very fun to play.
They use the same engine and setup
Switch players: will only play ____ game when it releases on switch
Pc and sony players: where the games are released i will hunt them down and play them.
CALIBURN BLADE All Platform owners: Peasent, please...
@@caliburnblade7895 Haha nice one.
I died laughing when he played the cat walking in reverse so it is moon walking.
great review ive been enjoying the game im happy it plays very much like Ys 8 as that was the first i played then i played the ark one
I’ve got celceta, seven and 1&2 on my vita and I found myself every other time returning to play these, they awesome fun and though as you mention graphics wise it is no their forte they’re so sooooo much fun...
Ys on the PC Engine was a graphical powerhouse in its day, and the music was years ahead of what could be heard on the other systems. Ys V also looks pretty damn good for a Super Nintendo game. It wasn't until Ys VI that Falcom started to lag behind on the visuals front, probably because of the switch from gorgeous spritework to lackluster 3D models and hand drawn art.
It was awesome Johnny !!
ys series one of my favorite one for sure, celceta really kinda very good one, also they add japaneese language selection now,
This game looks great and the music sounds amazing, gona buy it on steam =)
Perfect timing mine just arrived! 😁 Let’s Go!
cant wait this friday to get my game.
Gameplay and music are superb!!!
I love this kind of games with PS2 aesthetics
Is ys like final fantasy where they’re all their individual stories and not really connected or do I need to start on ys 1?
The best version of the songs are still on Ys IV Perfect Collection
Anything extra added over the vita version apart from better frame rates?
As an older Ys fan, I'm with you on preferring the solo Adol games. Ark of Napishtim (PS2) and Ys I-II Chronicles still hold my top spots for favorite Ys games.
I think it looks good I like that style . You sold me ok origins and now I’m an y’s fan . I wanna box turbo mini for books 1 and 2
Had NO idea this was coming out on PS4. Glad it did.
FINALLY Got my copy today!!
Exactly as you said,i have only played Ys VIII,but i fell in love hard!Really curious about this one.i wanna play it, i just hoped they did a remake with Ys VIII engine
Glad it got released on the 4 so others can enjoy it! Celceta on Vita got me back into RPGing years back...I HAD to platinum this bad boy on Vita! Go Ys!! Near and dear to the heart 😭😭
Man, I wish there was an Y’s collection released on the Switch.
Why just Switch? Way not other consoles too??
The games are already available on psp 1and 2 ,3,6,7 origin on vita,ps4 and pc. What's better wait for these games to release on switch or just play them already.
@@caliburnblade7895 I'd rather have almost anything on Switch if I'm honest.
Does it still look blurry like the PSVita version? I remember playing this back in 2013 and was somewhat turned away because of the blurry resolution. This was after coming from Ys7 for the PSP which (somehow) looks better than Memories of Celceta for the Vita. Just from your footage, I see that the graphics still looks blurry somewhat, hopefully it's just my eyes deceiving me. I would definitely love to pick this game up and finally complete it.
I wish this game or any other Ys game would come to the switch. Played and beat Ys 8 last year and thought it was absolutely incredible
Played this on VITA but I think I'd prefer it on PS4, will try it out due to your review
