Game description:
In the future, humans have finally reached the surfaces of the other planets in the solar system. Eventually, a group called the Commune, based on a gigantic space station named Ondina, began to dominate the expansion of human colonies. A rebel group from Mars called the Inverse is trying to overthrow the Commune, using for that purpose the Cruise Chasers, space fighters that can transform into giant robots called with the help of a system known as Blassty.
Cruise Chaser Blassty is a sci-fi role-playing game. The player controls an unnamed mercenary from Earth who eventually can choose to join either the Commune or the Inverse. The player navigates the protagonist in a mecha through pseudo-3D dungeon-like areas, fighting other robots in turn-based combat and gaining credits and experience. Missions can be received in populated areas, and the player-controlled robot can be customized.

I'm only here cause I saw this was the first game Nobuo Uematsu composed music for. Man I love his music.
Same here! I looked him up on Wikipedia and I'm going through all of his works.
Huh. I didn't know that the boss in FFXIV was a callback. I guess I should look at more of Square's older games in case I missed any more.
Square and sunrise. Nobuo uematsu kicking ass with his music. Interesting and innovative design.
Dude can you imagine this getting a remake???
Square and Sunrise...holy shit!
Yup, but hey... nice combo.
@@Highretrogamelord This explains Front Mission's prototype
@Joshua Frias The designs look similar to the Wanzers in FM
@Joshua Frias But seeing as Sunrise has had a history of doing Super Robot anime before Gundam, I can see the influence of both.
@Joshua Frias In a word, it'd be dynamic.
Square? As in the developers of Final Fantasy?
Yes, *that* Square. :)
Not only that but many of the same developers including the director, Hironobu Sakaguchi.
This game looks revolutionary. Dang, I wish I grew up in Japan.
Me, too. Well, kinda. Japan has the problem that you have to be super good in school to get a decent job later and then you might even have to work an insane amount of hours.
Old habbits die hard for square, huh?
