A good remaster of a PS1 classic that brings many QOL improvements and fixes a couple of the original's shortcomings by reintroducing some much-needed cut content, but falls short in elevating this game above the status of a kusoge guilty pleasure. Saga Frontier always was (and remains with this new iteration) a beautiful broken mess, one that will probably only appeal to nostalgic gamers or amateurs of obscure and cryptic video-games that want to experience the best and worse of a highly experimental era. I personally love it and maybe you'll do as well but consider this a fair warning: very much like the SaGa series as a whole, this game isn't for everyone.

This is an improvement on the original game. It has less grind(over kill in the original) and did a very good job on the PC port. If you enjoyed the original you should enjoy this. Simple game with simple stories but you might get bored with it after doing a single story line. Humans are the best. I recommend starting with a human character which catches your eye and filling your party with humans. If you finish that story(and slightly try out the other races) you might want to try it again with more challenge.

This was always an amazing game. Watch out for quick load on start up screen!! It will happily erase your auto save progress in the blink of an eye!

If I try to describe what is this game about, people would think I'm schizophrenic.

I have beat the game now with all of the characters and can say I would recommend this game. Do understand what you are getting. You are getting seven different characters, each with different stories and then an extra character who will go and recap the character's stories when you beat the game with a character. The quality of the different characters' stores varies greatly. Some characters have a branching and interesting story while a couple of characters literally can face their final boss after talking to two characters. I recommend using Emilia to start with, as she has a developed storyline, because if you use a character like Lute or Blue you may be disappointed by the lack of story or the lack of an ending and think that all characters are like this. Even for the more developed characters you are not getting lots of dialog, the stories are in many cases left vague and character motivations can be hard to determine. This game is a remaster of a game from the late 90's. I appreciate what they have added. You can run from enemies now and there is cut content that has been added, as well as Fuse as a playable character, but he serves mainly to recap a character's story when you have completed the game. This is nice as it adds and explains things that were left vague in the characters' stories when you first play them. In the 90's I beat the game with Blue and then quit, as I was not satisfied with the ending. Here Fuse gives Blue a proper ending. The remaster also adds a new game plus, and lets you pick what carries over, which is a great feature. Saga Frontier is a difficult game. There are many hidden or poorly explained systems, which is not a bad thing, but there are bosses that require you to use these systems to beat them. They are not optional bosses either, so you may need a guide for this game. I try not to use guides, but for Riki I had to, to beat a boss that required a combo system that I had not used (or needed to) the entire game. The game does feel like it experiments and tries many things and sometimes it succeeds and sometimes it fails. The game does not have levels, but instead you gain attributes for humans and mystics, based on what actions they take during battle. Robots gain strength based on equipment they use and monsters eat other monster's meat to transform. It is much like the saga games on the Gameboy (released as Final Fantasy Legends over in the West) Graphics look nice, but the option to use the original character sprites would be nice. The music is also great, I have Time Lord's Domain on my tunes that I listen to in my car. If you can handle the difficulty and sometimes experimental nature of this game and the game's vagueness, then I highly recommend it.
