![The Legend of Legacy HD Remastered Review [PS5] - Overleveled Games](/img/1.gif)
Buy Legend of Legacy here! amzn.to/3x3c3FQ
This game looks like fun. I know, not a lot of story, and yea pretty straightforward what your goal is, but this kind of game is just what I need sometimes, something you can just pick up, play for a bit, discover some land and then put it down. No major story points to remember, just a fun turn based beat’em up, I’m looking forward to getting this
I used to own this game on the 3DS, but never played it since I sold my 3DS collection. But hey, I'll get the chance once again now! Great review, David~
Just get Alliance Alive. That game is a big improvement over the story and the mechanics over Legend of Legacy.
I got It on 3DS and I got the HD remaster On switch Alliance Alive
Yes, I'm surprised how much attention is having this re-release while the far superior alliance alive is forgotten, being in the switch for many years.
This game has the battle system, infuriating random and unbalanced in gaining stats and abilities, and the exploration. That's all. Not story (the intro and ending, nothing else). Not character development (intro and ending, that's all). Not anything.
The alliance alive has the same battle system improved and balance (you are not learning a final ability five minutes in the game, or not gaining anything at all for hours, like could be the case in legend of legacy). You have a good story, a full World to explore. Several characters with character developement...
I actually prefer this one quite a bit over Alliance Alive. I felt like Alliance Alive cut a BIT too much fat from the mechanical complexity of this one and the game we got was slightly too simple for a proper SaGa-like.
@@DairunCatesThe Alliance Alive is like SaGa Frontier 2 it was made to target a more casual audience.
Insanity is doing the same thing repeatedly an expecting different results there's 10 mainline SaGa games with an 11th on the way,there's the spiritual successors The Alliance Alive and The Legend of Legacy, the spiritual predecessor Final Fantasy II,Akitoshi Kawazu was heavily involved with Legend of Mana and The Last Remnant was supposed to be UNLIMITED Saga 2... shouldn't most people know by now that these games aren't made for everyone? It's been 30 years y'all should know by now what you like in a JRPG and whether if this franchise is for you or not.
AA is kinda trapped on my 2ds.. I’d probably get the remaster if my backlog wasn’t as big.. I’m not familiar with LoL but it does look adorable.. I’ll just wait for a sale tho
I love 3DS remasters, the Etrian Odyssey 1-3 remasters are great. Legend of Legacy has a bit of the looks of the first Bravely Default, just way more colorful. I like hardcore classic turnbased mechanics, so based on your review i will definately give this a try.
What i'll always keep hoping for is a remaster or even remake of "Ever Oasis" village sim / ARPG from the late New 3DS era. That game was gorgeous and really emersive in my opinion, you cared for your little village you helped building around an oasis and the outside world was designed almost like a Zelda game, with quite a few puzzles and lots of tricky combat plus a few dungeons. And the bosses were fun, too.
This is one I missed on the 3ds so have been wanting to pick up on the switch. I think I'll wait for a sale now though. I still want to give it a try sometime. Thank you for the review!
It’s nice to have games like this just as a cool down in a sense. I’m just now finishing up trails into reverie being heavily story driven and a lot to get done. This seems like it’ll be a welcome relaxing game.
Ah nice. How was reverie? I'm doing the Trails megamarathon right now and just got to the Cold Steel games.
Also, fair warning? I do think this game is a good cool down game, but it's also mechanically obtuse and kinda hard kf you don't figure that out. I can see a lot of people getting frustrated by the fact that they can't get their healing magic to work because they don't understand the magic field system.
...but if you're like me and LIKE to wind down with mechanically crunchy games, then yeah, it's a GREAT cooldown RPG. It's nice and short too with a focus on multiple playthroughs like SaGa Frontier or Minstrel Song. So, you can dip in for a quick playthrough as a quick cooldown or go all-in.
@@DairunCates I’ve been a trails fan since Sky on the PSP. The culmination of the 9 games is amazing. Getting the opportunity to play all the characters and then some in the same game is awesome. If you’re playing all the games you’ll truly appreciate what the game is even though it’s significantly shorter than the other games.
@@kableguy0294 I mean, 3rd has probably been one of my favorites so far. So, yeah. I suspect I will. I know this team can do a lot with a shorter game with a tighter focus.
I also now too know the pain of knowing I will not see Kevin for several games. More Kevin and Wazy when, Falcom?
Thanks for the reply, btw.
No problem. Well no Kevin but You definitely get to see wazy a lot in this one. Also, another surprise character joins him, but I won’t spoil it. lol
@@kableguy0294 Yeah. I know. No Kevin after Azure. Apparently there's hints Kevin might be in Farewell Zemuria. So, I ONLY have to wait 7 games. :P
Good to hear we get more Wazy though.
I can say that after hearing the general response of the original release of this game I was surprised to hear that they were bringing it back to re release it. I have played Alliance Alive and while I only got about 20% into the game I can say the art style and concept it used was beautiful and interesting. I feel similarly about this even if the story is basically very simple overall but that pop up book style of this one is so fun to look at especially in this review. I preordered the PS5 limited edition from NIS when they first opened up preorders and I am ready for it to get here. Thanks again David!
The cuteness it’s an instant fomo for me 🤭 oddly enough I’ve never played this and will be getting it on the switch.
Do you know if there were any QoL changes from the original 3ds version? I never finshed the original, but i do still have it.
I loved Alliance Alive, but this one I didn't ever connect with, but I May try it again after a sale
Your videos always put me in a good mood and make me enjoy new games of my favorite genre, thanks a lot for the great work that you do!
Glad you enjoy it!
I missed a bunch of 3DS RPGs, saw that Legend of Legacy remaster is on sale right now on Woot for $34.99 and had to come by and see if you had a review. Sure enough you did! And now I’m going to have to hunt down Alliance Alive too it sounds like based on the comments. Thanks for the review! Will be ordering shortly :)
I called it the rng rpg. I dont remember much but i remember trying to get a certain item from the boat system and dont think i ever got it. Also i unlocked an awesome skill in a boss battle but either got a game over or had to restart for some reason. Since it randomly gives you skills for what weapons you are using i did not unlock that skill again for 2-3 hours of gameplay. Or trying to level my shield or guard/block level, so have my tank block as much for 20 battles and nothing, next time i picked it up he was learning skills every fight. Its just random or very odd system at play behind the scenes. Its like playing crisis core without being able to see the slot machine wheel. Just at random you will get levels and upgrades and skills. I didnt like the pop up book effect at first but can appreciate the uniqueness of it now. I remember finding a little method to make the game easier in alot of areas, every map has an elemental stone that you can change, if your characters all have water? Stones equipped (the healing one) then change the map/area stone to water you can heal all the time and for double the amount i think with a reduced cost. But if the enemies are water based enemys or magic users it can back fire a bit because it buffs them to.
Whats the diffrence between ds version and switch?
Thanks for
Your dedication. Love from Belgium 🇧🇪 ❤
Ugh..March 22nd is way too stacked, this, Princess Peach, Dragons Dogma 2.
But I’m looking forward to playing this since I never played the 3DS version.
I loved Alliance Alive, and I completely missed this one on 3DS. It seems like the perfect game for quick grinding sessions on the Switch when I'm just in the mood to whack some baddies
For me, sometines it's nice after a long day of work to play a game that's almost just pure gameplay, so I'll definitely check this out.
always love a Davidvinc RPG video to wake up to :)
I´m actualy enjoying Legend Of Legacy HD. It reminds me of SaGa: Scarlet Grace, that game also had the most interesting combat mechanics for short bursts of gaming. You play a bit go on with everyday life and give it another swing. Try to make some progres at 3 a.m. when you randomly wake up and get sleep deprived in the process.
I have physical retail copies of both The Legend of Legacy and The Alliance Alive on the 3Ds and on the PS4. I have a physical retail copy of The Alliance Alive HD Remaster on the Switch and a digital copy on Steam. I'm also planning to get a physical version of The Legend of Legacy HD Remaster for Switch and still need to get it on Steam as well.
Hamauzu did the OST for the game. Love it.
Probably worth a wishlist slot for me, but yeah glad to get the David take on it
Saw this after I saw Derek's review. It's good to know the expectations. I think I'll still pick it up since NISA is doing the collector's edition. Happy for the review to make sure of proper expectations.
I didn't manage to get it on 3DS, and as I have a ton of unplayed RPGs on Switch, maybe I willbpick it up on sale sometime in the future
Hmmmmm…. Not sure if this an RPG for me. Maybe I’ll pick it up when it goes on sale?
Thanks for reviewing David! 👍
never played this one on the 3DS, with so many great titles coming out this year i don't know if i'll have time to get to this one lol, thanks David
Any slow down or issues with framerate? I'm not sure to get it on ps5 or switch.
It's a 3DS game and Furyu tends to actually optimize their ports (instead of passing them off to another studio). So, it's pretty safe to say it should run fine. It's also a turn-based RPG. A frame skip or two is not actually gonna tend to hamper your gameplay experience.
But yeah. Even a super low-budget game like Crystar ran smoothly. So, no reason to think this one will do poorly. Most bad switch ports are done by AAA studios or super rushed 1-man indie teams with no track record beyond one game.
I know this game was hated on 3ds because of the level up system being random.. it's a very saga style game and personally I enjoyed it. But it's no wonder why they changed a lot for the sequel that came out.
Yeah... But I specifically LOVE the randomized levelups keeping me on my toes. My favorite SaGa-likes are the ones where EVERYTHING levels instead of hp, mp, and weapon level. So, I prefer this one over Alliance Alive. Things are weird like that.
Since I love the Etrian Odyssey series, I’m guessing I’ll like this one too.
As someone that's really gotten into SaGa-likes, I am excited for this one. I played the original and loved it for a lot of the reasons other people hate it. The mechanical complexity makes combat interesting and keeps things somewhat dynamic (when you get it), and the simplistic story allowed the ambient storytelling and world lore to shine a bit.
Also, I like the SaGa-like games where ALL of your stats grow instead of just HP and weapon levels, because it allows you to tinker more with your characters. That's something Alliance Alive really lacked.
is this with open world map and travel things like ships, etc?
Nope, just a point and click map
Alliance alive was such an awesome game so im still waiting for them to top that one.
I've never played it before, I think it looks alright! I don't like a lot of story to my games, and I like a good battle system. The weapon and armour stats sound a bit annoying, they should've updated that, but being an old school rpger I'm used to going in and out of the menu. I will probably pick this up.
This game came before Alliance Alive, which is why some people probably found it boring in comparison. I played this first on the 3DS and loved it. Difficult, but the battle system of learning new moves was fun yet exciting since its random. Also the music is amazing. I love it and totally recommend giving the soundtrack a listen. Especially the battle themes!
There is honestly a lot more to this game if you give it the time and patience. It isn't for everyone, but similar to SAGA series games if you like those!
Totally picking this up again once it comes out! Hopefully I can fully complete the game this time!!
I enjoyed Legend of Legacy back on the 3DS, but I agree that the lack of Quality of Life features was frustrating.
The way that I like to think of it is as a Dungeon Crawler RPG in the vein of Wizardry or Etrian Odyssey, but as an overworld SaGa game.
Trying to experience it as a standard JRPG like a Final Fantasy or Dragon Quest will definitely put players off, but knowing what to expect makes it far more enjoyable.
That’s a good way of looking at it!
Played a few hours on the 3DS, don't think I'll double-dip. You'll be exploring around, then suddenly get ambushed by some insanely powerful enemy. He'll either one-shot you, or you'll be fighting him for twenty minutes with no end in sight because you can't see his health bar.
I’m excited about this, but exactly because it doesn’t have much of a story and is kind of bland. I’ve been looking for a good “second screen” jrpg lately, and this seems like it will fit the bill. I loved playing grindy games like this as a kid while watching TV with my folks, and I’m still that way as an adult, but instead of TV I like to play while listening to podcasts or an audiobook. No story and pretty simple gameplay are perfect for that.
Thought first you had a typo and meant Legend of Legaia. But no, apparently that is also a game I missed.
Thanks for your review! I was on the fence about picking this up and it helped me decide that, unfortunately, this game is just not for me, even though I love other games published by NIS.
Good morning, Daddy!!! I have missed you ❤❤❤
You said some weapons are better to use and didn’t mention what/which weapons are better? 🤔
Was wondering if there was any voice acting at all or if It's all text sorry if you mentioned that in your video. I missed that part somehow Thank you for the video review. Appreciate it. Hope you have a great day!
The narrator has voice acting however that’s it
Thank you very much
This remaster will launch on Windows too ;)
i like the art style
I had my eye on this game, but not sure. While I like SaGa-like games, I often tend to drop them before reaching that far in the game. I think the aesthetics really sold me though.. Maybe I'll wait for a sale.
Oh and one correction to the review! The game is also released on PC.
not the focus but i love your tank
Tx David
I'm lost for words now david
Great review, thanks! I'll buy any turn based rpg as long as it isn't complete crap
I love this jrpg and i know it not for everbody but i enjoy it but everone have their own opinion 😊
hi Daidvinc RPGs
does it have voice acting? great vid as usual 🎉
It does for the narrator, but not for the characters
Looks lovely, but the carbon copy characters are a turn-off. I wouldn't mind if it were the only rpg I had...but my to-do list is quite long.
It looks cool but I don't know if it's for me...some of the challenge seems like ehhh, I can skip LOL
Hmm i think i might pass on this one. I prefer story heavy rpgs. Must be why I initially skipped it on the 3ds
Sounds like a “wait for a sale” game for me. Could be fun, but not a guaranteed thing and I got other things in the meantime.
Hi David! Filmia is so darn adorable. Definitely would be my pick. Never had the chance to play this one, so on the wishlist it goes. Right now, I'm playing Unicorn Overlord and enjoying it immensely. Thanks again for another awesome video, David, and have a blessed day! (Also, Alliance Alive is such a good old school style rpg. Highly recommend it to rpg lovers.)
I LOVE Alliance Alive!
@@davidvinc It's so good!
Legend of legacy is one of those 3DS games I wish I skipped. Well, after playing an hour or so...I kinda did. Oof. 😅
Hi David
This is the only SaGa/SaGa-like game (The Last Remnant, The Alliance Alive) that I've never finished. ...I guess now's the time.
I bought this game expecting it to be anything like Bravely Default and was hugely dissapointed. Thankfully, Bravely Second came out shortly after.
This just makes me want to play The Alliance Alive instead.
Let's be real, they sent this game out to die, especially in this day and age. It's very telling when Alliance Alive got a remaster way before this game did. And when much better RPGs are in abundance this year? Yeah, no.
I liked having the Saga Systems. I hated the dungeon crawling elements. I fill there are just better dungeon crawlers, as far as exploration is concerned.
Alliance Alive, however!!!
Um you forgot to mention it is also on PC
i enjoyed the game, but it was a grind fest. was hoping for some more QOL additions. i could not beat that final boss in the 3ds
For how annoying the rng and grind is, this was a perfect game to play while watching something else. Very light story and just dungeon after dungeon.
Can also pack a punch but with how characters are carbon copies of each other, it makes "fixing" your party easy just by swaping items or grinding a new skill or two.
SaGa-like is enough for me to give this a try!
Thanks for your review as always. Sounds like a miss for me.
I have the special edition of the 3DS game and you can tell nobody cares about it because even the special edition is only worth $30. I could't get into this one at all on my 3DS.
Looks like a fun little game but not sure it's worth the $50 with so many games coming out
I pass David, I wait for Saga Emerald , a true Saga game.
In all fairness, I'm gonna get both, because it's not like we're gonna be drowning in SaGa-likes.
This is a pass for me unless i see it for 15-20 dollars....
😜
i'll stick to alliance alive hd thanks
2 times did not bet first dungeon
Saga Style games are such a mixed bag for me. Guess i will pass.
I was interested in this but the lack of a meaningful story and the pop-up effects make it a pass for me. I see what they're going for but I find the effect more annoying than charming.
Why is this almost double the cost of the original? Nothing wrong with a simpler ‘unga bunga’ game every now and then, but not when it’s $50 AND a remaster. I’ll wait for when it drops down to around $20.
What a redundant name
Second
Don't bother, the game has no story, get Alliance Alive 👍🏾
First
\good gameplay bad story, kinda like fe engage? pass
Big NO! It's 100% mute. No voices AT ALL. 😴
Guessing you never played any PS1 era jrpgs lol
Not the point anymore, even 16bit indie style games are being voiced now. This is just them being cheap.@@andrewg9107
Lol when I played Octopath Traveler and Dragon Quest 11, I purposefully turned the Voice Volume off so it would play more like a classic
@@andrewg9107 like they were all muted on PS1 ? Valkyrie Profile for example... 😂
It's 2024 now btw. 😏
i got alliance alive so i will pick up legend of legacy since i never played it before...
One of my sleeper favorites on the 3DS. Relatively short, does not overstay its welcome, and offers a decent challenge. Great to play between bigger JRPGs. Also: A singing frog prince.
Glad you enjoyed it!
