Hey, just wanted to say thanks for this deep dive. I just finished Romancing Saga 2 revenge of the seven. And i just ordered a copy of Romancing saga 3. This series is awesome
I did not finished revenge of the seven yet but I saw Romancing saga scarlet ambitions, saga frontier and romancing saga 3 on discout so i buy them all. I also preordered the collector for the upcoming minstrel song remastered re-release .Awesome franchise indeed !
Your Let's Play of this game and explanation of its mechanics gave me the confidence to play through it myself. Now I've finished SaGa 1-3 and Romancing SaGa 1-3. Scarlet Grace is next on the list. Thank you for covering the more niche JRPGs :]
Glad to hear it! I hope you're enjoying SaGa Scarlet Grace. I played through that one only once, but it was a very thorough and very fun playthrough for me. I'll definitely be playing SaGa Emerald Beyond in April too.
@@SpaceLanceFTWThe combat is so addictive. Nothing beats galaxy-braining your enemy into initiating an interrupt or counter which you then interrupt, then focus fire on them, initiating a United Attack, leading to another United Attack, and then to victory. It might be the best combat system in a turn-based JRPG...
Excellent video covering some of the intricacies and nuances of Romancing SaGa 3! Despite it being one of the most beloved entries, I walked away from my first playthrough of RS3 ranking it as one of my least favorite entries in the series, second only to UNLIMITED, due to some of its quirks and inconsistencies making encounters needlessly frustrating. That said, I also knew that this would be a game I would eventually come back to and maybe find some greater appreciation for, and this video is definitely going to be one of my cornerstones of inspiration for when I do get back to it!
Wonderful video! As tedious as it can be to check guides (and avoid spoilers), I love all the little wrinkles added to SaGa games that you can discover on your own terms whenever you hit a roadbump! Aside from novel mechanics, the series really shines from its conviction to have its ideas mesh and be fulfilling on a basic level!
Thanks! Yeah, SaGa games like Romancing SaGa Minstrel's Song and Romancing SaGa 2 and 3 are games I always do a preplay research session into first before I even start a playthrough. I know what my party progression, magic spells, weapon setups, and formation strategies will be before I even start playing the game. And everytime I play the games again it's always different and it always feels a little biut like a different game for me. Never fails.
I absolutely love everything SaGa, so I'm happy to see such an in-depth video covering one of my favorite entries in the series. Also, I share the opinion that Minstrel Song is the series' magnum opus overall - it is still THE game that I point to first when trying to find a shining example of what a remake SHOULD be. It takes everything from the original Romancing SaGa, omits nothing, and adds so much more content while still feeling organic. Now I'm just waiting patiently for Emerald Beyond....
love this video! hope you do more of long form content exactly like this! playthrough the story with mechanics explained in between. editing is fantastic, and the writing is detailed and direct.
I love the detail that you go into in this video but your pronunciation of some of the words is murder. 😅 I’m glad someone loves this game as much as I do.
I would really like to play this game, but it seems a bit to complicated in its structure unfortunately and rather difficult too. I’m not sure this could be enjoyable for me.

Have you ever suplexed a Phantom Train in Final Fantasy VI?

I can't wait for this one to get the same treatment as RS2: Revenge of the Seven

SaGa is so great for the people it appeals to.
I hope you enjoy Scarlet Grace! It can get rough, but it's some of the best non-strategic strategy combat I can think of!
@@SDREHXC For sure. I 100% understand why SaGa games have mixed reviews. But man, if these games jive with you they can be super entertaining.

I'm so pissed it took me so long to find your channel, this is stellar! Would love to see you cover other JRPGs in this way beyond this and 7th Saga!
Hey, great video!

How do you spark the group combination techs like Guanyin?
This is a great video
It's a crime that they went with Drum and Bass for the, uh... Jungle area.
I think he made.... it even more confusing...the quests anyways
I completed it with Thomas and somehow broke the business game and locked my self out of it somehow
I would really like to play this game, but it seems a bit to complicated in its structure unfortunately and rather difficult too. I’m not sure this could be enjoyable for me.
