Jenni Lada: "Star Ocean The Second Story is among its best games in the series, and I believe the R release cements its role as the strongest one."
A new Square Enix March 2024 Switch eShop sale is up and running with the lowest prices ever for Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince, Paranormasight, Star Ocean: The Second Story R, and more.
CCG writes - "On a technical level, Star Ocean 2 R takes all that was good about the original game and polishes it to a mirror sheen. Coupled with an immense amount of quality of life and rebalancing decisions to make this classic game accessible to both old-time and modern gamers, I cannot recommend it highly enough."
Square Enix, Tri-Ace and Gemdrops' role-playing game, Star Ocean The Second Story R has achieved over 2,000 "Overwhelmingly Positive" reviews on Steam.
Beat it. Great game. I have to replay it though so I can fight Gabriel without the limiter. I missed the damn cutscene the first time. I'm also in love with the OST at the bottom of the Maze of Tribulations.
I hope they can remake 3 as well. And perhaps they can be reminded of what made the SO games good back in the day. I'm still surprised Square still tries with this series.
Ah, very Japanese of them to throw in a random alphabet in the name lol. Japanese titles always amuse me.
Playing it right now. It’s great. Big fan of Star Ocean , some are better than others but overall I enjoyed even the games that most don’t like This game is the best out of all of them before the remake.
I really like the backgrounds with the pixel PC/NPC
2nd story is by far the best game in the series.
