![Top 10 reasons I love Shadowrun [Genesis]](/img/1.gif)
Man... 90s SEGA art is always top notch. From anything Phantasy Star to Panzer Dragoon to smaller games like this.
Wow, I definitely did not expect such a low resolution system to capture someone's art style so vividly. Royal Stone looks like the definition of a hidden gem.
It's official: You have a true niche, The RPGG Queen! :D
"The extra G is for extra gaming"
This whole game gear rpg series is so endearing and I love every second. As I watch, I play the games ❤❤❤ cheers
I've always been thinking about snagging Crystal Warriors on 3DS eShop, and I now I definitely want to.
As for Royal Stone... WOW it's hard to believe that's running on 8-bit hardware! It really does seem to be a must-play for the system
Did you snag? I really think it's a simple but quite fun strategy game.
@oldmanwaugh I did snag it, a few months before the 3DS eShop went down, in fact xD
Wow I didn't know that GG have so many Sega SRPGs. Definitely trying this one. Thank you very much!
You're welcome. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did. (:
this 8 bit rpg looks a lot better than many 16 bit games! i just wish the GG had a better sound chip though
Hey, a new video! It seems like Game Gear doesn't get much attention from classic gamers, so it's awesome that you're helping to shed some light on worthwhile titles for the system.
Oh I love how cute these sprites and characters look, and the choice of colors is great! It looks like a tactics game I could get into for sure!
Awesome video, as usual! Would be cool to see some more GG fan translations. Looks like they've been springing up like crazy recently, even if there aren't that many big, text-heavy games for the system.
Royal Stone almost looks like a genesis game
Yeah, it's true as you say that the graphics don't make the game but Royal Stone really does look great.
I'd be lying if I said the graphics weren't a large reason why I do want to try it. It sounds like it's fun in many regards but it... it just looks like a lot of care went into this one!
Very enlightening thank you! I played a bit of Crystal Warriors just recently but after watching this I am going to skip it and go for Royal Stone looks much more refined. Thanks again!
I now know what game to play next.
Royal Stone is sooo good.
I think your reviews on classic JRPGs is great! Thanks for the videos.
Thank you!
Looks like I have a couple more SRPGs to add to the wishlist. Really need to get my Game Gear fixed someday. Until then, I will have to check it out on the PSP instead.
Wow, Royal Stone looks great! I've played shining force on gamegear to death so I'll have to give this a go soon.
This game looks so good. I've never played it before.
except for the graphics (where Royal Stone wipes the floor with Crystal Warriors), I actually enjoyed CW more than RS. I preferred how direct and easy to play CW was as opposed to the inifinte storyline depicted in RS.
Thanks for great review. Will try Royal Stone on PSP with emulator, which will be let's say similiar to playing on GG. Crystal Warriors looks less impresive but still bought it on 3DS and also will try it. I am sucker for obscure rpgs so keep em coming
I never delved into the Game Gear library much when I was younger, even though I had one. Nice to know it had a decent selection of SRPG's. Royal Stone looks cool.
This looks too good for a game gear release. Graphics look fabulous and the gameplay looks like a lot of fun! Of course anything somewhat like Shining Force is an auto-must play for me. Love the video, Daria! These lesser known RPGs are great to learn about.
Thank you. Also you should release more gaming videos and less porn.
Great video :)
Still have Crystal warriors seating in my 3DS not beaten yet because I got bored but Royal Stone is a game I always wanted to play : D
At least Crystal Warriors is short. I seem to remember beating it in a single session when I first played it.
Royal stone is the only Game Gear game I own and I still haven't played it yet. As a diehard SRPG fan i should get around to it soon.
On a side note have you played Mystaria Realms of Lore/Blazing Heroes/Riglord Saga? (I know 3 different names for one game is nuts). It's a great early made Sega Saturn SRPG. The visuals have not aged well but the story and gameplay stills holds up.
As always execellent video!
Yeah I own a Mystaria copy, figured if I was going to get it I'd rather have the first print. Haven't gotten around to playing it yet though.
Thank you for the great reviews on both games. Royal Stone sounds so interesting!
Speaking as a game dev, go ahead and pirate old games. Any of the original devs wont be getting any money for your purchases, it'll just go straight to the company.
Poor Game Gear. It was a true tragedy with Battery life. If anything needs a classic edition.
Drew Ciccotelli it would be nice to see some kind of collection for major consoles at the very least
Is this a fan translation?
It's too bad Sega never made a peripheral like the Super Boy that let you play Game Gear games on your Genesis/Mega Drive. The Game Gear had a lot going for it--I see it as a sort of extension of the Sega Master System's lifespan (identical hardware inside).
I liked crystal warriors. The graphics were simple and game strategic. Never tried the other.
Great video! I stumbled across Crystal Warriors a few years ago when i found a working game gear and I loved it despite it's many flaws. I've always wanted to try the sequel for awhile but now I know I must.
Awesome video. I loved Crystal Warriors growing up, didn't know there was a sequel.
Good review. I wish they had brought this one over back then. It seems like it would have been thebest game on the Game Gear easily. Much better looking than Sword of Hajya.
Hmm. never knew either of these existed. Love the way you talk about stuff if I haven't said it before
There is something about this game that has always reminded me of Dark Wizard on Sega CD. I can't find any connection between the two, so probalby nothing there, but curious what you think about that.
Is this game dual language compatible with the western Game Gear models? I know some games are translated from Japanese to English, such as GG Aleste 2, where even the title is changed to Power-Strike 2 if put into a western model.
Damn Royal Sword looks fun and those graphics are nice, it looks more like a Tg16 or Genesis game.
Yeah it's pretty amazing what the Game Gear was capable of.
I've noticed that there are way more tactics RPG on handhelds than consoles. Just look at the sheer amount of them on PSP and DS.
Awesome video! You've got a new sub!
Nice video as always, but I've found the game's music to be way too loud in this one, making it a bit hard to understand you.
Somehow the audio level on the second half of the video didn't match the first half. Not sure how that happened. But unfortunately once its uploaded there's nothing I can do about it. If you ever have trouble hearing me though, I do upload captions to all my videos.
@@DariaPlaysRPGs I missed out on the captions, but I did finish the video regardless. I'll probably rewatch it later with them on to see if I missed on anything, though.
This game looks so good I thought it was a mega drive title 👍🏼
Have you played the first shin megami tensei game, or any of the other main shin megami tensei games, not including persona
I've tried a bit of Megami Tensei, but I'm not really big on dungeon crawlers. Especially when they're soul-crushingly hard.
This sounds fun but not as fun as it could have been. I hate permadeath in SRPGs and IMO its something the subgenre should have banished from its realm long before this game out. Crystal Warriors is large part of the reason why I hate the concept so much. I remember playing it during drives with a childhood friend who owned a Game Gear (Our families often drove to the nearest mall, over an hour from our homes, together and the kids rode in the same car giving me a chance to play his Game Gear or his Lynx) Eventually after multiple trips of playing Crystal Warriors I had to restart because I didn't realize defeated allied units were gone for good until it was far too late to recover.
Daria what happened to Far East of Eden?
Never heard of these games. Thanks for bringing them to my attention!
Fantastic review I had never heard of this one👍
Looks like something i need to play.. 😊
They’re pretty!
Wow!!! Never knew about this game!! Looks awesome!! I need it injected into my veins, post haste!!!! Great video A+
THERE"S A SEQUEL!?!?!
Is named AX BATTLER. Has a sword.
Never heard of this one, nice
I came here from Twitter, hello!
Hello!
It's not on 3ds virtual console. I checked. Unless it's a Japan exclusive
Crystal Warriors was, it could be gone now. :/
@@DariaPlaysRPGs crystal warriors is still available. I checked
Oh ok yeah Royal Stone wouldn't be, the translation wasn't official.
i just remembered this game existed to see what people thought of it after playing it first when it was first fan translated to see if anyone else is aware of how overpowered eva is and indeed nobody isff
Pin me please RPG Waifu Queen
pretty? wtf
do you think you'll ever get back to reviewing the Final Fantasy series? You said as I recall that you were going to review all of them and so far as I recall, you've reviewed the first couple and Mystic Quest.
I reviewed Mystic Quest (as a collaboration), but the rest of that doesn't sound like me.
