    Finally got around playing this gem this summer after a really busy semester where i didn't had any free time play games at all. You weren't lying at all when you said Nayuta was one of the pinnacles of the PSP.
    Limited combat (by current action Falcom standards) aside, Its genuinely impressed me, one of the most fun games i played in a while, loved the comfy energy it gave me while playing it.
    The level design was very good for something that was made within the limitations of the PSP in mind.
    You'd think the season change mechanic is just to pad things out for content but they added a lot of new sections for each.
    The game also visually holds up surprisingly well by today standards, wish Falcom experimented more with with cel shading.
    Old handhelds games really were built different with how high quality they could cram in such limited hardware.

    • @Kraftium
      @Kraftium  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yeah, i genuinely feel like especially today the only thing you cant do on a handheld is a consoles level of scope, scale and presentation
      Basically it cant do fancy set peices as well (but i can still do them within its limits) and since a basically dont care about that stuff it means i can just love the hell out of handheld games

    Great to have you back Kraft! I owned a PSP, but not a Vita. I know that it was definitely a platform of choice for NF though, and so many of the Vita's games got ported to the PS3, like Lost Dimension and Trails of Cold Steel (I have it, but still haven't played it). This was a nice look back at a game I had no experience with, and I'm definitely interested now. It looks charming.
    I still recommend a look at an ancient game called Legacy Of The Wizard. It was the fourth game in Nihon Falcom's Dragon Slayer series, which would eventually spin off another series you might have heard of called The Legend Of Heroes (massive sarcasm there). It even has an impressive soundtrack by a composer you might be familiar with named Yuzo Koshiro (even more sarcasm, for effect). I played a ton of it when it came here in the US in 1989, but I think you might love the primitive style and sounds that would go on to inspire some of your favorite games. You're a bright lad, and I'm sure you can find some way to emulate an NES game. Give it a look, and see how much, and yet how little, has changed over the decades.
    Keep up the good work!!!

      glad to be back (made a big fancy return a month ago and then got swamped with outside factors and work again) granted thats partly cos I've got a big project in the works (no spoilers on it tho)
      I definately have my eye on the gagharv trilogy for falcom at somepoint, and the likes of popful mail and wot not, eventually I'll work my way back to falcom's older stuff

    This was a very informative and interesting video. I have a lot more appreciation for this game now, I played Nayuta earlier this year, and I enjoyed it, although I will say that towards the end of the game, it was starting to overstay its welcome a bit for me. I was like, holy shit when is this game gonna end lol.

    • @Kraftium
      @Kraftium  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I can very easily see that the ending can feel a little drawn out especially with the after story if you're not on boarded with it 100%
      I had the thrill of it being this super secret PSP game when I first played it which probably kept me going

  • @serastera
    @serastera 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    Nayuta was so peak. Till this day, It is still the last falcom game that have fun boss battle. Games after this have so underwhelmingly weak moveset and gimmicks in their boss battle.

    • @Kraftium
      @Kraftium  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      It definately is a everything but the kitchen sink approch to falcoms combat
      I think the other ys games still hold up thanks to stuff like boss patterns and general higher speed but stuff like most of ys7 feels alot weaker these days

    I must admit I’m guilty of underestimating this game, discounting it as some sort of spin-off leveraging its loose connection to the main series to sell copies and little else. Well, regardless of the strength of that connection I must say I’m impressed by all that’s on offer here and I regret being so brash in my initial assessment of it. Congratulations on an awesome video! Your entire channel is hugely underrated. I wish you much success!

      I mean considering how badly it sold in japan I don't think you're the only one but I will continue to shout the gospel of nayuta from the rooftops lol
      also thanks for the praise my dood, I apprciate it. I love making videos but the slow growth can be a tad draining at times, tho I guess thats my fault for liking niche jrpgs lol

      I can take or leave nayuta being part of the main canon tbh, i feel like people act like it needs to, to be considered worth playing and that opinion is lame but at the same time I the more bullshit thats added to mr kondo's wild ride the better
      cold steel as a whole was definately a fumble but I felt like reverie is them getting back on track and I think kuro looks super cool
