- In this video, I talk about 10 of my favorite less-represented old RPGs that need to come back in the form of a remake or remaster.
My criteria for choosing the games was as follows:
1. Actually completed the game
2. Didn’t seem talked about as much as other gems like Chrono Trigger, Legend of Dragoon, etc.
3. Games I just really wanted to revisit and talk about
Huge Shoutouts to the following channels for gameplay footage:

You’ll have to forgive my hasty self for saying Chopin died at 19! It was definitely 39.
Thanks for watching! What are some games you’d like to see come back?
Skies or arcadia is worth the price. Just, play it. I promise its a good time
19, 39, who's keeping score? (I want every layer of this pun fully appreciated, thank you.)
@@jeffreyvillines5662 puns like this are music to my ears. Thank YOU.
@@Fairy-Uvinq It's on the list!
shadow hearts 1 & 2, a dark fantasy rpg where it also has a ring system like lost odyssey, except it follow's a traditional clock motion (thou in some cases it can go in reverse via debuff's) it was actually those 2 games that made me try lost odyssey back in the day
Legend of Dragoon, Skies Of Arcadia, Chrono Trigger, and Legend Of Legaia are games I want remakes of
This solid list should include Xenogears. A new finished remake.
Dragoon and Legaia would make excellent remakes. Legaia 2 was a really great sequel with a wonderful soundtrack.
I dont want SquareEnix messing with my favorite game of all time Chrono Trigger. I already hate what they did with FF7 remake and the FF Pixel remasters were lazy remasters to me. They should have made FF6 look like FF7 remake considering a lot consider 6 to be their greatest FF ever made.
Yeah, 100% probability they'd screw up Chrono Trigger.@@thepsychomagus
I've been raving about how good Legend of Legaia is for years. One of my favorite games of all time. The battle system should have exploded into the market.
I want a remaster of Radiata Stories so bad. With quality of life upgrades.
And some additional character to recruit
And better combat
If a Radiata Stories remaster gets the same amount of love as Star Ocean Second Story R, we'll be eating good.
Really would love a third ending. Some quality of life updates to combat and maybe some more characters. Its such a lovely game
I would love them to remaster it. I still have my copy. No additional recruitable characters, please. It was a nightmare the first time. Updated graphics and maybe a combat upgrade similar to SO3. A third ending would be kinda interesting, though not sure how that would work. I understood the split, but it would be interesting to sway characters to join different sides depending on time in party.
The fact that Suikoden V is the only main line game to not even got a digital re-release in the Suikoden series is a CRIME. It was a return to form for the series, and one of my favorite on the PS2 console. I would love to see even a basic remaster of this game to put it it more people's libraries today.
Yo I been saying that. suikoden V was the best for me
If a good remake of Legend of Dragoon came out and launched with no advertisements, the fan base would make sure everyone knew about it within seconds. There'd be articles, CZcams reviews, etc. within moments.
yes this!
Definitely this. . .
100% this
Haha I came to the comments to see if anyone else would mention Dragoon~ I would love a remake of the game because I have yet to see another game implement the QTE like this game did. And now that I'm older I think I can actually time the attacks better xD
Amen Sony could use a W and this could be a golden goose. Gust of wind-d dance!
Radiata Stories is a hidden gem. I religiously played that game when it first came out in the West and still adore it to this day. Thank you for highlighting it!
I love it because it's goofy and doesn't take itself very seriously. For example, when that dragon guy comes to town, he tells you he'll give you an insane amount of money to do a job for him, once you complete this job, he gives you the money. When you look at the money and its actually fake money with his face on it LOL
Interestingly enough it's pretty close to what the original idea for Chrono Cross was. The head behind Chrono Cross said that he originally wanted you to be able to recruit almost every character in the game.
Let’s not forget that Lost Odyssey took a now age-old traditional concept of rpg design, Over worlds and tried to innovate it for the next generation with much greater physicality and 3d graphic design. Too bad the PS3 would usher in a new age of photo realism to the video game industry and these old traditional rpg elements like Overworlds would fall out of obscurity. But you have to appreciate that at the time of this transition to new hardware and a technological leap in gaming, Sakaguchi tried to evolve the overworld. We would not see something on this same level until 9 years later with FF XV.
Parasite Eve desperately needs a remake/remaster
Vagrant story as well.
Parasite Eve's story is unbelievably awful, so I don't really see it happening.
We need a return to the “Breath of Fire” series. Loved that rpg
Yes!
yes 2
yes 3
Yes 4
I would love to continue that chain but Breath of Fire 5 is the only game in the series that doesn't look like a Breath of Fire game.
Some of the stories in Lost Odyssey made me feel things I didn't know a video game could make me feel at the time.
I wish Dark Cloud wasn't in copyright limbo, but I don't see why they couldn't remake Rogue Galaxy the spiritual successor to the series.
It is? Dark Cloud I & II are among my favorite RPGs ever, and I was shocked they weren’t on this list.
I came to the comments to mention Rogue Galaxy.
I'm currently playing Rogue Galaxy for the ??? time
Golden Sun & The Lost Age need to be remade and remastered into one complete package the way it was meant to be.
I would absolutely love this!
2nd this.
i just hope they dont botched the gameplay as every element of it are essential
the battle, psy, djinn, overworld, sailing
although if they can make the towns or villages be more lively that would be great too
It's not a remake, but both of the originals are now available through the NSO+ expansion.
I would definitely add both Shadow Hearts & Skies of Arcadia, both great games, in the case of Shadow Hearts it's trilogy.
And those are on the list to play! It’s becoming a long list from this comment section… 😂
@@retrobrandon Shadow Hearts triology is so good and so expensive to pick up physical copies now a days. Theyre stuck in developer/publisher hell as the one who owns the rights to them is into Pachinko machines now last I heard and they had no interest in the selling the rights
Isn't Shadow Hearts a sequel to Koudelka?
@@wargamesmaster I never played Koudelka but I heard it's connected.
@@shadowsquid1351 I feel it's an actual prequel since the main character of the PS1 game is in Shadow Hearts and is an important part of the plot.
OH MY GOD I still talk about Eternal Sonata to this DAY! I for real thought I was the only person left alive that remembers and loves it. I just replayed it last month. If they did do a sequel I'd love to see a figure from another art form. Edgar Allan Poe, Van Gogh, etc.
Radiata stories and infinite undiscovery might be my favorite tri ace games ever.
So true...
I wish I could play radiata stories again I missed that game
Infinite undiscovery was my first 360 game and still one of my favorites from that system
@@josephmessenger4552 I gave up on IU early on. Star Ocean 2 and 3 are my favorites from Tri-Ace.
Radiata stories is a gorgeous game! I remember getting that game for my birthday and loved how small but dense it felt. The combo creator was pretty cool too. Btw I completely forgot about infinite undiscovery. Personally, I’d love to see a remaster/remake of golden sun in the style of links awakening and Mario rpg. Keep it faithful and keep the cutesy graphics and charm!
Shadow hearts is rarely mentioned on any retro reviews or am I the only one find this game amazing
Nah mate I love this game series too.
Me too
Same still got mine
Blue Dragon, Infinite Undiscovery, and Lost Odyssey can also be bought digitally on the Microsoft Store. Still avaible.
I can't agree with this list more, I fell in love with Radiata Stories so hard when I played it! The sheer number of playable characters you can have in your party was amazing
I was seriously waiting for you to mention Lost Odyssey. One of the absolute best RPGs I’ve ever played. Final Fantasy VI and Chrono Trigger are awesome, but in terms of story this absolutely killed it!
I just picked this up digitally for my Series X and will likely play it again very soon.
Imma need them to do Vagrant story and Vandal Hearts! I know theyre not traditional rpg but god i loved those games.
Blue dragon and Radiata stories are actually my favourite JRPG in xbox 360 and ps2. Radiata stories will always have a place in my heart
Dark Cloud series remake would be amazing
Agreed. As long as they get rid of the spira mini game. Worse mini-game ever in my opinion.
@@mirandagoldstine8548 was that the golf game from the second one?
Yep@@MattGx_. The bane of my existence.
I loved. Radiata Stories. I watched my dad playing it growing up and then I eventually bought it for myself and spent huuuundreds of hours playing it.
Do someone wanna feel old as F ? This comment right there could be you just yesterday, but today ...you are a dad or could be a dad ...😅😂😂
I feel this keenly. What my nieces call "retro" boggles my mind. 😂
I would not mind seeing a full triple A remake of The 7th Saga, Treasures of Rudra, Secret of Evermore, Final Fantasy Legends 2, Final Fantasy: Mystic Quest, Parasite Eve, Chrono Trigger, Terranigma, Valkyrie Profile, Forever Kingdom, Evergrace, Jade Cacoon, SaGa Frontier.
You’re hired!
Yeah, they need to remake all those.
I'd love to see a remaster of Shadow Hearts but considering the situation with the IP, I don't think we'll ever see an official remaster, remake, or continuation. My only solace is Penny Blood coming up (hopefully) in 2025 😭
Cool list, some titles I wasn’t even aware existed. My top ones are: Xenogears, Chrono Trigger, Skies of Arcadia, Shining Force 3 (all 3 episodes), Phantasy Star (any of them or a new game in the series), and Parasite Eve.
Xenogears especially. One of the best stories I can remember. Characters are great. Exploration, combat, and progression is so much fun.
Shining Force 3 was one of the most painful things since it was released in 3 episodes and only the first released in the US.
Radiata Stories and Eternal Sonata are two of my all time favorites. I just told my coworkers about them this week.
Lost Odyssey was Sakaguchi’s love letter to Square fans. It was such a large game, with so much to do. I still play it once a year. This video was my introduction to your channel, and I’m not disappointed in the least.
True.. I say it was exclusive FF on Xbox 360 with other name, which is almost true :)
Just found this channel and holy cow you go in depth on so many games. Radiata Stories is one of my favorite games ever! Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon, and Infinite Undiscovery... 360 RPG love is awesome to see.
Welcome and thanks for watching!
Radiata Stories was freaking awesome. I miss the soundtrack, too. I really would love a remake right now. Getting lost in that world would Def bring me some positivity in my life.
Loved the video. Discovered a few I haven't heard of, so I'll definitely check them out! I like that you didn't do the "usual suspects" like ff9 or chrono trigger but allowed me to discover new RPGs
Dude I bought Radiata Stories for the FFXII demo but it stole my heart with hundreds of characters to recruit
Radiata stories is marvellous. Check out suikoden 1 and 2 remake when it comes out next year
Dragon Quest VIII was awesome because not only did I get that game but it came with the FFXII demo.
@princessmagical that ff12 demo sold me enough to pre-order the steel book edition. Still not entirely sold on DQ8 but having finished DQ11 to a near complete capacity I might be willing to give it a shot again.
I bought DQ8 just for the FFXII demo. Still glad I did to this day. That was a fantastic game.
For me, Legend of Dragoon and Xenogears come to mind.
ETERNAL SONATA was awesome and the classical music references were inspiring to me since i had NEVER listened to them !!! also Lost Odyssey would be an insta buy from me even though on xbox 360 the game glitched and i lost my save when i was close to finishing the game !
Ahhhh, that’s the worst! A few years ago, I decided to wade into the trails of cold steel series and lost my save. What terrible games to lose saves for!
Radiata stories was dangerously funny, if I lt I could experience it for the first time again. Legend of Dragoon is still firmly cemented in my top 5 RPGs of all time and I think if it could've existed in a gaming vacuum without ff7 being a thing, it could've been a bigger game, but those who knew of it and played, have a cult like adoration for it. One I'd actually be really curious to see a remake/sequel for is Romancing SaGa : The Minstrel Song. the sandboxy nonlinear story and DEEP combat and crafting systems felt so refreshing at the time, but even seasoned rpg lovers had either not heard of or hadn't played it, so every time I talk about it I end up having to "educate" people
Legend of dragoon. That’s all I need and all I want. I will take more xenogears but they already had a spiritual successor in xenosaga so I guess that was enough. Rogue galaxy from level 5 as well was great
I want Legend of Dragoon remastered/remade as well. I'd even accept a prequel game that follows the adventure of Rose and her companions during The Dragon Campaign
Legend of dragoon got a remaster on ps
@shinmegamanzx I thought they just ported it to current gen consoles? That's not really a remaster.
Man i loved legend of dragoon growing up but having played it recently i found it pretty boring
@bartongannon1822 that's why it needs a remaster/remake. Bring it more current. I think a remake is a bit more needed because of how long it's been since it came out
As another collector, seeing videos like this makes my heart soar, thank you
As a creator, seeing comments like this makes MY heart soar! Thanks for watching!
Glad to see someone giving Lost Odyssey the respect it deserves. Not only is it one of the most underrated RPGs ever made, it's the best RPG to ever be released for Xbox 360 in my opinion. I loved the story, the game play and the soundtrack and Jansen is one of my favorite characters from any RPG.
The fact that I saw Radiata stories in your thumb nail made me jump into the video I remember playing this after he so suikoden series and I absolutely fell in love with this game and always wonder why a second or third wasn’t created.
Infinite undiscovery was one hell of a ride as you also had to remember to remove deadlier than normal; berserk is a constant in this one making the game super difficult
Id love to see Legend od Legaia remastered both 1 & 2 in one package❤️💪🏽🔥
I just found your channel and I love your presentation style. A lot of these games were already in my to-play pile, but it's really nice to hear your commentary on them and get more of a feel for how I'll like them. I actually recently dusted off my dad's Xbox 360 so I could play Lost Odyssey and Eternal Sonata for the first time, and I might just have to check out Infinite Undiscovery too.
You just added some games to my back log man, and I thank you for that! Subscribed!
Great list. It's funny how I actually setup my PS3 to play eternal sonata and Tales of grace F the other day and I was thinking where are the remaster for there. Absolutely love Radiata stories but really true I seemed like the only person that knew about that game in my whole school. People made fun of RS and called it the Rowdy asshole Stories. I hung out with alot of Juvenile delinquents. Lol
Star Ocean 3 is my favorite RPG of all-time (if we don't include Brave Fencer Musashi, since the RPG elements are so light in that), and Tales of Graces f is only second to Tales of Phantasia to me. Great list. I've personally played most of these, with a heavy focus on Tri-Ace and Tales
I'm all for it. Many games slipped through the cracks, got ignored, or were a bit ahead of their time and could use a remaster.
This is really only one I truly truly care about though. You know what it is. Starts with an X and it's probably the one JRPG that everyone is absolutely sure will never be touched.
I only just realized this channel only has 1k subs. I expected a big channel with the production quality. Nice work.
I miss Rogue Galaxy.
In my opinion, The Last Story would be the best game brought by operation rainfall in terms of functionality. Xenoblade is iconic, but I was appalled by how gorgeous and charming TLS was. I wondered how my Wii could handle such beautiful graphics and not explode in the process. Just imagine how good it could be handled by a remaster.
Pandora's Tower the other of the Project Rainfall games also would benefit from a remaster.
Lost Odyssey will always be No1 on my request for remaster. I played it and Blue Dragon again not long ago. Also great to see you mention Infinite Undiscovery and Eternal Sonata is just so good. Good list.
I recently bought a 360 again, JUST for Lost Odyssey... I played it when it came out and a friend of mine played it as well and we both adored it and raved about it.
I played it again and it still holds up... I'd love to see a remaster because this game is criminally under rated. It's, in my opinion, the best RPG of the 360/PS3 generation.
Radiata is soo good, so many good feelings from when i played it
I absolutely loved the setting and music in Eternal Sonata. As a musician myself, I loved appreciation to music as a creative medium. The battle system was really unique, and the game got really challenging towards the end. I would love to see a remake or remaster because it's truly a hidden gem of a game
Eternal Sonata composer was Motoi Sakuraba, same who composed music to great Star Ocean games and Tales of games.. if you didnt play them, I highly reccomend almost all of them... bu I must agree that Eternal Sonata had great OST
I have 2 lists and I'll include my top picks of each
RPGs that need a fresh coat of paint because they're already amazing: Chrono Trigger (Gimme a beautiful remaster!), Pokemon Gold/Silver/Crystal
RPGs that deserve a full remake to expand their glory and make them as grand as they should be: Skies of Arcadia (Imagine this game but twice the size and content. It deserves to feel so much fuller!), Quest 64 (Drop the 64 and give it a full name, give it a proper tutorial, and I feel like people would LOVE this game. Some mechanics of it were WAY ahead of their time, like spells that had you had to manually aim by positioning your character and knowing how far their reach was!)
hats off to you, your recalling of lost odyssey was on point, I also miss this game deeply, played this when I was younger and loved every second of it.
I just played (most of) Arc the Lad and I think it would really benefit from a glow up. It has a great artistic vision for its world and characters, great dialogue, and an interesting battle system with a strategic element. The balance is totally busted though, requiring a LOT of grinding to adequately make use of all the tools at your disposal. Or you can just power through the entire game with one character, wasting all those design elements. The story is there if you treat the collection as a single game. I think it's a great candidate
I would buy PS5 at this moment if sony announce they gonna bring this series back to life, specially if they gonna remake ATL 1 -3 >
I only ever played twilight of spirits and got a majority of the way through it on ps2. Game is really fun I hope they just revive the franchise in general
i played radiata stories back in my PS2 days and loved it i would love it for it to be remade or remastered
I remember buying Advent Children as a PSP 'game' not realizing it was a movie. Was mad it was a movie for about 20 seconds then I got sucked back into how awesome FF is.
I love this video so much. Thank you so much for making it. There a few PS2 games that I could think of that could use a remaster or remake. Digital Devil Saga and Digital Devil Saga 2. Both games are amazing. I got to thank my friend for renting them and letting me play them.
Gosh, I've been wanting a Valkyrie Profile 2: Silmeria for YEARS! It's one of my favorite games, and the combat system is so iconic - juggling enemies with triple impact combo strikes watching the crystals rain down breaking the frame rate lol!
It also has one of the best soundtracks of any RPG with tracks like Disturb the Doubtful Sleep, Dancing Without Malice or Mercy, Start Up from Prolonged Darkness, A Thoughtful Strategy, Sank Memories, No Knowledge of Wisdom, In Order to Acquire the Light in That Hand, Unrestrained Struggle, Movement of Distorted Causality, Multiplexed Contradiction and Climax Coming From the Abyss.
@@cmudd9788 Yeah, the soundtrack is pretty good, but man, it's very different from the first game - I can imagine that bothering some people. VP2 kind of takes after the more somber moments of Star Ocean 3 than it does VP1.
I loved Lost Odssey, Blue Dragon and Infinite Undiscovery, to this day i still wish they have been remastered
100% Agree. Lost Odyssey is a real story about love lost with all the side stories if you read them, let me in tears sometimes. I want it remade so bad.
Loved this list. I own a copy of every single one of these that I’ve had since they came out. 2 or 3 of them are still sealed as I never got around to playing them. Ironic, that so many of these were not received well on opening.
I was lucky enough to experience radiata stories. Would love to play it again
Radiata Stories is one I'd love to play again, loved the challange of character recruiting, I still own Eternal sonata..though no longer a PS3, Absolutely LOVE suikoden V, rented it long ago, never got to buy it..fav of the series for the nostalgia, Path of Radiance was where I fell in love with FE.. I really would love to play those XBox ones too, one system I didn't have at the time
This is a really well made video, excellent stuff!
Thank you!
I'm going to argue against Dirge of Cerberus being on this list. Not because it doesn't need an update, but because I see it more as a third person shooter with RPG elements.
What’s funny is that in an earlier cut of this video, I called that out. And I thought, “naw, the mechanics and leveling make it an rpg, should be good.” But you caught me! Haha thanks for watching :)
The only games I totally missed on that list, are every game of the Shadow Hearts Series!
It’s now on the list! I missed these back in the day :)
The original Tri-Ace doesn't exist anymore, that's why games like star ocean 6 have been rubbish. Gone are the days of Valkyrie profile, star ocean 2, Tales of destiny, tales of phantasia wolf team the guys behind star ocean aka wolf team turned into Tri-Ace and once upon a time they were the best JRPG developer in the world. Now they are a shell of their former self, probably due to artists and developers quitting in Tri-Ace and the name carried over with noobs in itworking for mobile games and the occasional big title like star ocean 6 which again I must stress sucked 90%.
Nice videos man..keep it up
I would love to see all 3 of the Shadow Hearts games get a remake/remaster. Or heck, a collection of all 3 for the ps5 or switch. The story is both dark and silly, the judgement ring system made combat fun, some of my favorite rpgs
If you played Xenogears, that probably would have been top of you list. Since it is not on this list I only assume you haven't played it. XD
I agree with a lot of these though!
Haha you have guessed correctly! It’s on my list of games to check out!
@@retrobrandon I hope you enjoy it! I think it has the best story of pretty much any JRPG EVER created.
There is a shareholder requesting Square to remake Xenogears so there’s hope?
Man I've said it many times before, but I wish Eternal Sonata would have become a series. It could have focused on a bunch of different composers and teach you about each composers history.
It was a missed opportunity
I feel you. I'd be all over that!
Remaster or Remake, there's often a thin line between these 2 ideas so...
For the list, you MUST add FFT (you already know it), Shining Force III, Secret of Mana (in the same way Trials of Mana had, and NO, the 2018 remaster DOESN'T exist, period), Summon Night Swordcraft Story and EVERY BREATH OF FIRE GAMES !!!
And maybe the two first Fallout games need a HD-2D remake or something like that, it could be nice. 😇
3) Tale of Graces
2) Dragon Quest VIII
1) Shin Megami Tensei: Digital Devil Saga
Dirge of Cerberus is not a RPG, it´s a shooter.
It's a hybrid rpg shooter.
Yall are both wrong. It's a master piece
@@BillyBob-hn7bt I like saying random things too
@ragingreject Look dude. It's just my opinion. If you disagree it's just because you're wrong
@BillyBob-hn7bt I wouldn't call it a complete masterpiece, but it's still a load of fun and one of the coolest games I played on my ps2 this year
So glad to see love for infinite Undiscovery. This is one of my favorite games
A remaster of Shadow Hearts: Covenant is needed. Everything else can wait.
The interest in Valkyrie Elysium was quite high, and if the game wouldn't be so empty and shallow there'd be a lot of good things to come.
I really hope they get their stuff together and decide to fund a real Valkyrie Profile game, without all this button-mashing action stuff.
I will never forgive them if Eternal Sonata doesn't get remade in my lifetime.
This video was really clean, I’m surprised you don’t have more subs.
It’s the first to take off, so I’m blown away by how many I have 😂 but thank you! I’m excited to talk more about game I love :)
Great picks good to see some Freire Emblem, and Last Story on here. Hoping to play through both on their original hardware this year.
Ahh, the great era of RPGs. I played and own all of these except Dirge of Cerberus and Fire Emblem. I still go back and play games like Blue Dragon or Lost Odyssey again because I enjoyed it so much.
Valkyrie Profile 2 was so good, I probably played that game for over 500 hours back in the day lol. Also would love to see Golden Sun, and Lunar 1 & 2 (these ones with the same HD-2D treatment as Star Ocean 2!)
My favorite part of Blue Dragon is the boss music. If you didn't know it was coming, there's something hilarious about playing and out of nowhere there's a song being sung by Ian Gillan from Deep Purple.
ALSO! I would LOVE to see Atlus return to their PS1 Tactical RPG greatness and make a TRUE successor to Brigandine, Kartia, and Thousand Arms.
Ugh you definitely made me wanna try Lost Odyssey! Gonna have to find a copy.
I personally would love a remake of Dark Cloud 2 from the PS2. Definitely one of my favorites
A remaster of Radiata Stories would be so magical!
First thing I saw in your hand in the first couple of seconds on the video, is Radiata Stories. I absolutely loved this game when I was young! I'm sure I'm older than you too!
Tri Ace and Level 5 will always be the greatest underrated RPG making studios.
shadowhearts is a cult classic that not many people played due to finalfantasy taking the lead
Vagrant Story is a game that needs a remake. If you haven't played it, give a try or watch a play through. It's a good game. I would also love to see Azure Dreams and E.V.O-Search for Eden get a remake or remaster.
Cool content 😎
Just getting a glimpse too many of epilepsy with the average of about 1 edit per sentence, to be frank. Still loved both the games you mentioned and your comments on them 🎉
Wow, never watched any of your stuff before - but man, you and I have like… the exact same taste in games, at least so far as RPGs are concerned.
Like, every game on this list is either one I’ve played and loved, or always wanted to play, but haven’t yet got the chance too. Like seriously, in the last year, I’ve coincidentally done exactly what you recommended here - picked up Blue Dragon, Lost Odyssey, and Infinite Undiscovery to play on the series X and also managed to get my hands on a copy of the Last Story to play on my WiiU. I grabbed a copy of Suikoden V a few years ago, because like you it was my intro to the series back in the day, but for me, we had rented it at the time and it took me a long time to finally track down a copy - now I’m just waiting for the time to play it.
Radiata stories and Star Ocean 3, are some of my favorite games of all time, and as far as my top “Tales” game, Tales of Graces is tied for first Tales of the Abyss.
Nice to find someone you’ve got so much in common with - I’m right there with ya holding out hope for a lot of these. The Switch has already pulled off so many miracles, here’s hoping for a few more!!
Love to hear it!
Oh i'd instantly buy a remaster of Eternal Sonata. INSTANTLY!
you popped up in my timeline and I like your takes and style, your vid feels geniuine and not just for clicks. I shall be your 200th sub and im rooting for your channel to blow up. Good stuff dude.
Thank you so much! I'm excited to keep it going!
I need, badly, a remake or remaster of Vagrant Story. I hope someday square realizes how much of a gem that game was
Great list!!!
Really great video mate
Played Dirge of Cerberus, Valkyrie Profile 2 Silmeria and Fire emblem Path of Radiance, I would happily pay $100 each for a full remaster of any/all of these games. I would add Rogue Galaxy to that list as well, so much potential.
