SaGa frontier remastered debuts in ten days on the switch and other systems. the original is imo one of the crown jewels of the SaGa games and an unsung masterpiece of the psx, they could have just released it as-is and i probably would have bought it day one. the only problem with the game is that it had a super troubled production and ran out of money (supposedly because ff8 was starting to soak up all of square's pocket cash) so they had to cut a bunch of cool ideas and systems and an entire scenario went down the tubes. now, in the year of our lord 2021, incredible cool-type psycho akitoshi kawazu was able to use the remaster to not only add all the unfinished stuff but also dramatically expand the scope of the game beyond his wildest dreams

CHOOSE FROM SEVEN SCENARIOS, EACH WITH THEIR OWN PROTAGONIST AND PLOT


EXPERIENCE CUT CONTENT AND SEE THE FINISHED GAME AT LONG LAST

THEN, UNLOCK THE MYSTERIOUS CRAZY FUSE AND USE HIM TO EXPLORE WHAT-IF SCENARIOS AND ALTERNATE ENDINGS


UTILIZE NEW FUNCTIONS LIKE "TURBO MODE" AND "ESCAPE FROM BATTLES" TO TURN THE TIDE

that no battle counter increment on run is really strong, it means you'll never make a wrong move in the Yorkland swamp during the Arcana quest or when you're inside the Tanzer for the rune

I'm just wondering if they did bug fixes, specifically the gold exchange and the junk shop stuff that lets you get easy credits.

less the easy credits and more duping the game into giving out the far more valuable items, so you can tote around HyperionBazookas as soon as you arrive at a realm hub

They released a voiced trailer a few days ago and "BlackX" is supposedly pronounced "Black Cross" so I've been reading it wrong for 20 years.

Is there any indication of new recruitables or abilities? I hope there’s new spell types...

If this is successful maybe they’ll remaster sf2 :pray:

99% sure I saw Ren in Fuse's party in the trailer, to round out the IRPO team. Might also see more characters recruitable in more scenarios, thought I read something to that effect.
