Caught in a bland romance
WTMG's Leo Faria writes: "I’m not going to say that there isn’t fun to be had in Romancing SaGa 2. It isn’t a terrible JRPG, it’s not a generic one either. The problem with this game is that it clearly shows some ugly signs of aging, as it’s riddled with various issues that plagued other games from its era. If you’re a die-hard fan of everything Square has released back in the day, then you’ll most likely enjoy this title. Just don’t expect anything as good as Chrono Trigger or Final Fantasy VI, or else you’ll be in for a massively disappointing experience. By the way, if you do get a copy, consider getting it for a portable device like the Vita or the Switch."
A physical version of Romancing SaGa 2 for Switch has been revealed, complete with English support, and pre-orders are now live.
VGChartz's Adam Cartwright: "What I aim to examine in this article is the output of each of the major localization companies, in terms of what they released, what they chose not to release (including when they localized titles for other platforms but skipped the Vita version), as well as some brief commentary on the quality of their translations, before providing an overall rating on their support (outstanding -> amazing – > good -> solid -> poor).
A large part of the reason I love Vita so much is thanks to its brilliant selection of Japanese games and that’s really what I want to celebrate here, but also lament some of the missed opportunities we had along the way."
It is a great time for fans of Square Enix’s SaGa series! Romancing SaGa 2 was ported to multiple platforms and released worldwide. SaGa: Scarlet Grace was the first new entry in the series in over 11 years when it was released on the PlayStation Vita in Japan in 2016. Basically, it feels like it is experiencing a renaissance. Which means it is a good time to review what makes it so special.
Another fantastic series to add in is the Mana series especially titles like Seiken Densetsu known here as Final Fantasy Adventure, Secret of Mana a legendary Action Rpg, Seiken Densetsu 3 and that's the best known of the mana series
