Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:42+

I would like to ask, which title would be the easiest to get into for the Switch?

1: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:43Yeahx21

An easy-to-approach saga…?

2: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:44Yeahx1

Saga is easy to approach, but it’ll strangle you later.
My recommendation is Romancing SaGa 2.
If it’s a series, then it’s directly the “Makai Toshi Saga.”

3: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:44Yeahx8

It’s not particularly difficult.

4: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:44

There are only three Romancing SaGa games on the Switch.

5: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:44

None

6: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:45

It’s fine to be satisfied after going into the sewer.

7: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:45Yeahx32

“Revenge of Seven is good.”

8: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:46Yeahx5

If it’s your first time, you might as well start with Minstrel Song.

12: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:47Yeahx13

>>8This devil!

9: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:46

Experience the saga in the trial version.

10: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:47

Two years ago, I could have bought the images.

11: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:47

The first installment had strange troubles that occurred frequently, leaving us unsure if they were bugs or features.

13: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:47Yeahx6

Right now, Libesaga is probably the easiest to get into.

14: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:47

I feel like Saga 2 on DS was fairly easy.
Yeah, I felt like the last part was quite tough.

15: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:48Yeahx6

I’m thinking it might be a choice between a remake of Romancing SaGa 2 or SaGa Frontier.
What I like is the thread image.

52: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:57

>>15I would also be in that two-choice situation.
Minsaga has a rather peculiar system, after all.

16: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:48

3
Once you overcome not knowing where to go at the beginning, it tends to go smoothly.

17: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:48Yeahx4

Even though it’s said to be difficult, it mostly just means you can’t beat the final boss; other than that, it’s quite a typical RPG.
If I just do things randomly, I seriously can’t beat the final boss.

18: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:49

In Romancing SaGa, there are only Minstrel Song, 2, 3, and Revenge.
If it’s Saga, it will increase a bit more.

19: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:50

At that time, I gave up on Romancing SaGa 2 midway.
I heard that I need to cultivate some skills or something, so I probably wouldn’t have been able to clear it even if I continued.

20: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:50Yeahx1

When it comes to being approachable, the overwhelming choice would be the remake of Romancing SaGa 2, commonly known as Ribesaga.

21: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:51Yeahx5

It’s difficult to buy Romancing SaGa 1 now.
And there is absolutely no reason to do it in numerical order.

35: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:54

>>21By the way, isn’t there a download version of Romancing SaGa 1, not Minstrel Song…?

22: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:51Yeahx4

If you’re going to do it now, then it’s fine to do it with Ribesaga.
Remake of Romancing SaGa 2

23: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:51

In Romancing SaGa, you can’t carelessly fight weak enemies until your equipment is ready.
From there on, it will go smoothly until the second half.

24: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:52Yeahx1

If I could take only one thing to a deserted island, it would definitely be Min Saga.

25: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:52

Getting wiped out in a low-level battle was too much of a bad game.

26: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:52

It’s hard to point to any title and say, “This is Saga!” It’s not becoming a work that serves as a proper introduction.
Regardless of the difficulty

27: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:53

If you play the non-Rive version of 2 on the Switch, there’s no soft reset, and this is… a terrible game!

31: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:54Yeahx1

>>27There was an original work!
The remastered version has quite a few areas where the response is worse than the original.

28: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:53

Revenge of Seven is big because it has a lot of popular voice actors lately.

170: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:25

>>28Big breasts!?

29: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:53Yeahx1

The difficulty of Ribesaga depends, but it’s tough from the early stages.
In the end, the point that it’s hard to know where to go is the strong characteristic, so Rebisaga is easy to get into.

30: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:54

The only one that’s completed is Romancing SaGa 2.

32: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:54Yeahx4

I really want to recommend the remake of Romancing SaGa 2 because it allows you to choose the difficulty level, making it suitable for beginners.

33: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:54Yeahx1

I think the ones creating queues are a bad example of a symbol encounter.

34: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:54Yeahx1

The easiest Saga to approach is probably Libera Saga.
In the end, I don’t think there are common points, so it’s not really about the entry or anything like that.

36: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:54Yeahx1

I think the effects from Romancing SaGa 2 are influencing Libre SaGa.
It seemed quite difficult for those who played Rebisaga with complete ignorance, as they were very confused.

37: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:55

Romancing SaGa is fun whether it’s a remaster or a remake, and Saga Frontier’s remaster is also fun.

38: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:55

What are the differences between Saga and Romasa?

44: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:56

>>38There aren’t any specific reasons, but there are many people who won’t accept it unless it has the title “Romancing SaGa.”

49: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:57Yeahx8

>>38Sa Ga → Game Boy
Romancing SaGa → Super Famicom
SaGa Frontier → PlayStation 1
Ansaga → PlayStation 2

39: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:55

KAYAKIS
This demon!

40: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:55Yeahx8

First of all, Libesaga is sexy.

41: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:55Yeahx1

Why not just play Minstrel Song?

42: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:55

The growth system is unique and it’s hard to tell if it has become stronger, but it’s just an ordinary RPG.

43: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:56

Many works have a peak balance that is challenging for kids to play with, even by the standards of the time.
I don’t think it’s that extremely difficult if you’re looking at strategy guides and such now.

45: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:56Yeahx1

Ribe Saga was a perfect remake that every other remake should aspire to.

46: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:56Yeahx3

There is no deep meaning in Romancing just because the title changed when switching models.
However, Romancing SaGa tends to focus on fantasy and is weak in science fiction.

51: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:57Yeahx1

>>46I wonder, isn’t there quite a lot of cosmic-themed content?

65: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:59

>>51I think they are being careful enough not to include robots, even though there are SF elements.
As for the rest, they tend to bring out a somewhat medieval fantasy-like feel that’s reminiscent of historical works.

75: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:01Yeahx5

>>65Hyper Gold Luxury Full Automatic True Final Virtual Romantic Exciting Dragon Machine!

47: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:56

I think it’s a bit of a quirk that the instant-death attack used by allies is super strong.
Compared to 2 or 3, it really gets a lot of critical hits, doesn’t it?

48: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:57

There’s no robots in Romancing SaGa.

50: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:57

When I first played Romancing SaGa 1 on the SFC, I didn’t have enough levels and saved while surrounded by enemies in a cave, so I was stuck…

53: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:57

If you’re not too resistant, it might be good to start with something like a Saga-style friga.

54: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:57

In the interview with the god, the boss can’t be defeated, so it wouldn’t be a game, but since you can progress even if you can’t defeat the weaker enemies along the way, they said it’s fine to make them as strong as you want, which made me think, “That’s amazing!”

55: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:58

The safest bet is probably Rise Saga.
I think SaGa Frontier is easy to play with a lower difficulty level.
Aside from that, maybe Minstrel Song…

56: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:58

I like the BGM from the Shelah battle, but there was no trace of it in the SFC version.
And the WS version has poor audio quality.

62: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:59Yeahx2

>>56I quite like the BGM of the Felahha battle in the WS version.

57: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:58

Clearing the first round of Rebirth Saga is fun, but there are rough parts if you want to play for a long time.

58: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:58

Saga → A guy who travels through a surreal dungeon world.
Romancing Saga → A relatively ordinary fantasy world.
A selfish image like that.

59: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:58

Kawazu was told by the company and Mr. Sakaguchi to create a Saga, and although he had no particular attachment to it, he continued by simply adding “Saga” to the title.

60: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:58

Saga has the image of casually traveling between different worlds.
Romancing SaGa has a relatively orthodox setting.

61: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:59Yeahx1

Manga like Vinland Saga and the anime Zombie Land Saga are particularly unrelated.

69: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:01

>>61I understand that!

63: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:59

Saga Frontier 1 and 2 were completely different games.

64: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)19:59

I think it might be a good idea to have a SaGa Frontier 2 remaster now that many of the frustrating elements have been eliminated.
Well, it’s an unusual work, but…

66: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:00

How about Saga Frontier Remastered or Remake Saga?

67: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:00

Is the tactical tank safe?

68: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:00Yeahx4

To put it extremely, in the Saga series, the items you can acquire differ in each game, and if you’re looking for an easy entry point, I think “Romancing SaGa 7” is a good choice.

70: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:01Yeahx1

If it’s on Switch, there’s a demo available, so it’s a given.
It’s Sagaeme.

76: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:01Yeahx6

>>70Don’t try to drag me into the swamp.

71: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:01

If you’re also interested in the music aspect, I think the arranged version of MinSaga and Re:Saga is a good choice.

72: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:01

Kawazu God is the kind of person who catches nearby office workers and tests whether they can clear things properly.

73: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:01

Thanks to inheritance, if you get lost on your first try, before you know it, you’ll become strong enough to defeat even the eggs casually…

74: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:01Yeahx2

Saga Scarlet and Emesa Saga are too focused on combat.
Even if I’m the type who thinks it doesn’t really matter which Saga you start with, when asked for recommendations, I can only say that it’s good to research the system first and then try it if you think it suits you.

77: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:02

It’s not the meaning of “saga,” and the “saga” aspect is added later.
It seems that “Saga” was something intended to be an onomatopoeia or something similar.

82: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:03Yeahx2

>>77Isn’t it about the saga of living things!?

78: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:02Yeahx9

It’s a good time now because I can recommend Ribesaga for the time being.

79: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:02

I completely forgot about the professor…

80: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:02

If Shibuya can be defeated, the gods say it’s better to make them stronger…

81: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:02Yeahx1

(What is a ground battleship?)

83: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:03

>>81It’s a free route game, so there’s a part of it that’s unavoidable, but it feels very sudden and comes across as if it’s completely natural.

85: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:03

>>81The remake has made the steps too rough, making it absolutely difficult to move.

84: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:03

The interesting thing about ground battleships is that they resemble human-powered galleys.

93: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:05

>>84Hadarage!

86: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:04Yeahx4

I wish the DS remake of SaGa would come out on Steam.

91: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:05

>>86That is an extremely good port, so I want to play it again on something like a Steam Deck after a long time.

87: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:04

Play FF2.

88: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:04

The BGM is cool, but if you’re looking for something particularly unique, I recommend the remaster of SaGa Frontier 2, which features quite special BGM production.
In addition, there might be a remaster of SaGa Frontier that has an overwhelming amount of BGM that could make your nosebleed on the Switch.

99: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:06Yeahx4

>>88I really love the sound of SaGa Frontier 2, but don’t throw it at those seeking the cool BGM of Romancing SaGa!

90: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:05

One disappointing aspect is that the effect of being knocked away when colliding with ground battleships running in the same area as oneself is gone.

92: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:05Yeahx5

If it’s about guessing the song, there’s no wrong choice for me, no matter which one I pick.

94: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:05

How about Alliance Alive?

95: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:06

The sewer is filled with symbols of monsters!

106: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:07

>>95When I see new streamers calmly handling handshake events without despair, I think they’re professionals.

96: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:06

If I were to recommend something normally, it would be “Ribe Saga.”
It has been a topic here as well, and with many fans, the remake of Romancing SaGa 2 has good character designs.

100: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:06

>>96Pai, pai.

102: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:07

>>100Be more serious!

97: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:06

Is the DS Saga a remake and not a port?
I’m sorry.

98: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:06

In Romancing SaGa 3, if you keep attacking with the power of the clone technique, things will somehow work out.
Since things like money and equipment behave relatively normally for an RPG, I can recommend it to some extent.

101: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:06

Ribesaga is surprisingly kind to its fans.

103: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:07Yeahx1

If we’re talking about remakes or remasters, I don’t think there are any difficult SaGa games right now.

104: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:07Yeahx1

Considering nostalgia, Romancing SaGa 3 is my favorite.
So I want you to play Romancing SaGa 3.

105: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:07

I can understand the feeling of wanting to build a ground battleship from a Boque-on’s perspective.
The north has the wall of Cumberland, which is too obstructive, and the south has the savanna.
The port town of Miles, which is in a unique sphere of influence, faces only the economically unbeneficial Oreon Sea.
The canal fortress that was trying to invade a piece of land that seemed like it could establish some capital-like functions has been captured.

107: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:08

The cute barrel works that are often seen here are not recommended for beginners…

110: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:08Yeahx2

>>107Rather, it is highly recommended because the trial version is the only one that exists.

113: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:09Yeahx2

>>110There’s also Ribesaga!

111: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:08Yeahx1

>>107I think it doesn’t matter whether you’re a beginner or an expert.
It’s about whether it fits or not.

108: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:08

>“ズガガガ”、“ドバババ”みたいな音のように、勢いのあるものにしようSaga
It seems that the god from Kumamoto also had a deep connection to Saga Prefecture.

109: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:08Yeahx5

Going ahead without prior information and failing is also part of SaGa.

112: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:08

You should try the demos of Rebirth Saga and Saga Emerald.

114: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:09

On the Switch, it’s Amemiya, huh?
It was easy to recommend the rules of conduct.

115: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:10

It’s really good taste that Kawazu is already mixing Saga with sex in the first installment.

116: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:10

If I play the demo of Saga Eme and feel something is off, then I’ll play the demo of Rube Saga, and if that feels off too, I’ll buy Saga Frontier 2.

118: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:11

>>116Daringly now
Buy Saga Scarlet.

117: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:10Yeahx1

The enemies are strong, but difficult maneuvers are not really required, so if you’re prepared, winning is definitely not impossible in battle.
I struggle with villagers who engage in rather trivial conversations and events that can start anywhere.

119: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:11Yeahx1

Before I knew it, the town was filled with monsters.
Before you know it, you’re going to end up defeating Saruin…

120: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:12

The Saga Scar Sale is great because you can play for a long time at a low price.

121: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:12

Sagaeme never gets stuck in the story!
Trade, please endure.

122: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:12Yeahx1

The BGM for the Shiraha battle is nice…
The power of the technique is incredible…

129: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:14

>>122Is it the WSC version of Shiraha?
The dark web is painfully serious, isn’t it?

123: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:12Yeahx1

If you’re new to the series, I would recommend starting with Romancing SaGa 3.
I feel like that is kind.

130: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:15

>>123That’s just it; there are too few pathways, and it leaves you wondering where to go.
That’s fun in its own way, too.

124: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:12

I enjoyed Romancing SaGa just with the vibe of battles and conversations.

125: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:13

Ribe Saga is actually increasing the failure routes compared to the original.
I appreciate that I can openly promote the game and continue playing without just abandoning it.

126: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:14

Why can’t I play Romancing SaGa 1 when there are games like Saga Collection, Romancing SaGa, SaGa Frontier, SaGa Frontier 2, Minstrel Song, Romancing SaGa 2, Romancing SaGa 3, Emel Saga, and Skasaga?

131: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:15Yeahx6

>>126Isn’t Minstrel Song treated as Romancing SaGa 1?
As a fan, it’s completely different.

134: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:16

>>126Kawazu is saying that he wants to do something about it somehow.
I think there’s a possibility of a port being more likely than Anser Galmaster.

150: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:20Yeahx2

>>134Ansaga is really enthusiastic about the remaster!
Don’t say rude things.

127: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:14

I really like the story of the ever-changing connected world with Sagaimemo every time I make a round.

132: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:15Yeahx1

>>127The text is the most intense, allowing for easy replay without any effort, and on top of that, the combat is fun. It’s not an exaggeration to say it’s the best installment in the series for me.

128: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:14

If you love 2D games, then Saga Frontier 2 Remaster.
The scenario progresses smoothly!

133: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:15

So far, there are reports from various places that monsters are becoming active and causing damage.
After realizing my mission in the mid-game, I understood that Saruin is the mastermind, and that I need to gather the Destiny Stones to defeat Saruin.
Even if I’m told that much…

154: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:21

>>133(No need to collect it, especially.)
(Except for aquamarine and amethyst, there are no effects.)
(If anything, not all of them might gather.)

135: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:16

Romancing SaGa 1’s complete version is the i-mode version.

136: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:16

I love the boss battles in Romancing SaGa 1.
I also like the Minstrel Saga’s golden week.

137: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:17Yeahx1

It’s Romancing SaGa 1! I’m going to play Romancing SaGa 1!
Experience the feeling of being thrown into a state of not understanding anything.

138: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:18

I really love Romancing SaGa 1, but it’s honestly hard to recommend to newcomers.
Well, if you can accept that you probably won’t be able to go to Old Castle, then everything else can be managed…

139: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:18

I want a 3D remake of Magic Knight Rayearth too.

140: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:18

I love the introduction when you start by choosing the protagonist in Romancing SaGa 1.
This guy is like this! It’s like “Come on, go!”

142: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:19Yeahx3

>>140I am Captain Captain Hawk.

>>140Captain Captain Hawk!

141: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:18

If you do Ribesa,

143: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:19Yeahx1

Even if we say it was difficult, everyone was a kid when they cleared it back then, right?

153: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:21Yeahx3

>>143It took about the same amount of time as a third grader in elementary school becoming a first grader in middle school after giving up once.

174: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:27

>>153When I first played in elementary school, I kept running away, and the enemies became too strong to handle…

157: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:22

>>143In the kitchen, I somehow managed from RS3 to RS2 for the first time.
I tried Googling RS1 and looking at places like Tiger’s Den, but I didn’t understand anything…

145: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:19

If you’re interested in the coolness of the BGM, I think you’ll like the Metal Alkaiser battle from Saga Frontier.

147: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:20Yeahx2

I want them to release theガラケー versions of Romancing SaGa 1 and Makai Toshi with G-mode.

148: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:20

Captain… I was just about to respond too.

149: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:20

Isn’t it good to not know anything about Saruin?
Galaral Sword, Great Sword, Galaral Flail, Verney’s Bow, and Halberd.
I defeated it.

151: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:20

Those who start with Gray like Katarina, play with the lute, and circle with Leo.

152: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:21

If we’re talking about the coolness of BGM, it’s definitely Minstrel Song.

155: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:22

If it’s your first time, I feel like Furo 1 or Libesaga would be recommended.
What I like is Emerald Beyond.

156: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:22Yeahx3

If you want to enjoy a free scenario, 1 is the most free.

160: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:22Yeahx1

>>156It’s interesting that while everyone reaches the same conclusion, the paths they took are all different.

158: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:22

Not only does the series feel different depending on the numbering, but I think it’s fine to start with what you’re interested in.
If you’re looking for accessibility, then Libesaga.

159: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:22Yeahx3

If we’re talking about the most approachable one, it would be Saga Frontier Remastered.
If we’re talking about Romancing SaGa, then it’s definitely Romancing SaGa.
Minsaga is a masterpiece, but I definitely can’t recommend it to beginners.

161: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:23

The battle preparation themes for Saga Scarlet and Saga Emerald are enjoyable enough to listen to continuously.
In fact, during the game, it might actually become the most heard thing.

162: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:23

Excluding the difficulty in obtaining it, my recommendation is Saga 3: The Emperor of Time, Shadow or Light, which has a lot of Saga elements and a cool soundtrack.

163: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:23

The Saga Scan Sale is super cheap, right?

164: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:23

I wish they would do something about Miriam’s voice in Minstrel Song being poorly done and hard to listen to.

165: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:24Yeahx2

Minsaga has map abilities and is a bit complicated…
In the sense that just by fighting, things can somehow work out, the original version is easier.

166: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:25Yeahx1

>>165No matter how you look at it, there’s just too many…!
Also, converting money is a hassle.

167: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:25Yeahx2

Romancing SaGa 1 is forgiving because you can clear it without having to do events.

173: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:26Yeahx2

>>167Even if you repeatedly engage in useless mob battles and solidify your character with shop-bought Vernegaral equipment to charge at the final boss, you can somehow still win, right?

177: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:28

>>173On my first playthrough, I couldn’t win against Saruin even after getting the divine trial weapon and was stuck for a long time.
Do you understand that you can’t win if you attack with all your strength from the first turn?

181: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:30Yeahx1

>>177You can win from the start without knowing the system, just by going all out.
The way I won when I was a kid.
The turn took too long and the background turned completely white.

197: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:32

>>181I attacked with all my力 but couldn’t recover in time at all, and it was impossible to win.
I wonder what the difference was…

217: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:39

>>197After going to the final Shiren, if everyone has been equipped with Garal Verney and has completed their growth, they can overpower with performance.

220: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:40

>>217I don’t think they had gathered Galar Velvet like that, so maybe that’s it.
I didn’t really understand how to save money or jewels back then, so I wasted quite a bit.

168: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:25

The first game I was able to clear on my first play was 3.
Both 1 and 2 were difficult to clear on the first try during my childhood.
I watched my friend clear 1, and I learned about the existence of quick time through V Jump and cleared 2.

169: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:25

If we’re only talking about difficulty in getting stuck, it would be Romancing SaGa 3 or SaGa Emerald, but I don’t particularly feel like recommending them…

171: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:26

I thought the voice acting in Min Saga was quite a bit more bubbly compared to the more mellow feel of Unsaga at the time.
I have already mastered it.

172: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:26

If you want to play Saga, I don’t recommend starting with Saga Scarlet Grace.
If I had to choose, it would be Saga Frontier.

175: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:27

If it’s a voice actor, Saga Scarlet is quite catchy too, right?

176: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:27

Libesaga is fun even in the English version!
The English voice of the ninja girl and the tick is so cute that my brain is melting.

178: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:28

If you realize that the Phantom Sword techniques are strong in Romancing SaGa 3, it might be the easiest in the series.

179: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:29

It seems like the intention is not that they can’t win if they attack with full force, but rather to make them struggle regardless of their strength.

180: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:29

Saga Frontier is often recommended, but if you choose Koon at the start, I can’t help but think you might end up quitting.

189: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:31

>>180There’s a possibility of getting stuck normally, and the ways to advance the scenario vary.
I’m wondering if it’s really that recommended.

202: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:33

>>189Isn’t it true that there aren’t any elements that would cause a dead end in Saga Frontier?

208: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:34

>>202If you have separate saves, you can restart, but if it’s your first time and you haven’t played the series much, I feel like there are places where you can get stuck.

210: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:35

>>208I think there are more situations where you can get stuck in Romancing SaGa 3 due to saves.

193: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:32

>>180This protagonist isn’t getting stronger, but since there’s a human in the initial team, we can still manage.
She’s an elite woman with initial skills that make her resistant to barrier-type counterattacks and even has a healing technique.

182: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:30

The problem with Romancing SaGa 3 is the guidance…

183: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:30

In 3, if you save right before the well, there is a chance you might get stuck.
Even if 2 is completely annihilated, it basically leads to imperial succession, which also serves to prevent stalemates.

196: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:32

>>183That’s true, but could you please let me go in the end?

184: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:30Yeahx4


I bought 2 and 3, which were on sale.
I’ll start from 2 when I get home. Thank you.

185: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:30

Romancing SaGa 3 is said to have a strong clone sword.
If you can fight enough to get the doppelganger sword on your first try, I think you already have the combat power to clear it.

188: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:31Yeahx6

>>185In the first place, understanding the specifications of the clone sword properly means you’re no longer a beginner.

186: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:30

Saga Emu and Saga Suka have a notably high number of playthroughs before understanding the true story, which is something to keep in mind.

192: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:31Yeahx1

>>186Regardless of Saga Sca, Saga Emma is the truth of what happened in that round.

187: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:31Yeahx2

Are you going?
…Don’t die.

190: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:31

Well done!

191: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:31

What I personally found tough in Romancing SaGa 1 was that my save data often disappeared and sometimes there were bugs that made it impossible to progress.

194: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:32

If you’re the type of person who wants to read a story, it’s hard to recommend Romancing SaGa 3.

204: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:33

>>194I was really disappointed by the incredibly trivial exchange that ended up being the additional part of the remaster, becoming the Five Demon Nobles.
The story about the additional dungeon was good.

195: Japan Otaku Reviews25/05/20(火)20:32

In SaGa Frontier, I remember being stuck after saving right before the final boss with the lute.
In Romancing SaGa 2 and 3, why is it that you can’t go back right before the final boss…?
