Compelling narrative and story
Limited professional critic coverage
- Story Our tale starts with two protagonists: Gustave, heir to an esteemed royal line, and Wil, a young man who makes his way in the world performing excavation work. Though born in the same era, their circumstances could not be more different, and as Gustave is faced with strife and conflict between nations, Wil finds himself confronting a world-threatening calamity that lurks in the shadows. Their stories gradually coalesce to form a single history. ------------------------------ The game's "History Choice" system gives players the freedom to choose which events to play, and in doing so has them assume the roles of various characters and experience the world's history in fragments. In addition to the glimmer and combo mechanics that the SaGa series is known for, this title also features one-on-one duels. Players will find themselves confronted with battles both strategic and highly compelling. ------------------------------New FeaturesFor this remaster, the game's impressionist watercolor graphics have been upgraded to a higher resolution, giving them a greater sense of warmth and delicacy.
Runs well on modern hardware.
