I could focus almost entirely on the things that appeal to me about the game without compromising its structure at all with these modifiers available, so it's a complete success as far as meaningfully adding to the original without altering its character. But because Frontier is fundamentally an anthology jam zine of a video game, the prospect of carrying over select aspects (and it's all customizable so you can gauge the degree of the carryover) from one story to the next does nothing but enrichen the play experience that otherwise would be marked by longer-than-desired power-up periods in repeat circumstances. In most other cases, the premise of playing a game all over again with some variables holds no appeal for me, and if and when I return to said game, I don't want to interact with it in the context of circumventing its standard design curve with powered-up characters and the like. I'm especially impressed with the New Game+ function as it feels like a feature that always should've been there, and marks the first time I've enjoyed the concept in a video game. It was a superb remaster of one of the best games ever made I truly didn't think I was going to commit to it on release since my playthrough was rather recent in late 2018, but the inherently compelling aspects just shine ever on the second time around. Should one triumph there, there's an even more powerful superboss waiting in the remaster developers' room, an unassuming but ludicrous lone ninja.
There's a big, increasingly challenging boss gauntlet of all the respective final bosses one can embark on from the finale of any of his chapters at the IRPO waiting room where the protagonists gather, but seeing as Fuse's story already involves fighting those bosses for a reprise.
obviously.lots of people feel differently.įinished this is in all the ways that I care to: all character stories cleared alongside Fuse's ongoing supplementary misadventures. rough edges and maybe that little bit of frustration (or at least the feeling that i had to invest myself in some way) are what make things memorable and captivating to me, not annoying and off-putting. (ironically, i think unlimited might be one of the most "solvable" games for relatively casual playthroughs.you can savescum a few very powerful things and it feels very easy to manipulate many other rng elements, in part because there aren't that many outcomes in total and some of them are outrageously rare.) i've even had this experience with things i thought i'd personally learned or figured out, that they turned out to be much harder to replicate or make happen than i expected!Ĭertainly, to me, i'm not inclined to view the game as mess, though in general i think the most interesting games (and a lot of art in general) certainly have that feeling that they're at least on the verge of being a disaster. Of course, on top of that, saga generally has an element of not being overtly deterministic-you can't necessarily "copy" what someone else did and expect to get the same result. i definitely think it's a bit of a bummer that people in the latter category have often written off games as incomprehensible or unknowable when that kind of approach doesn't prove very easy to finish a game by, but i can't really change their minds.
SAGA FRONTIER REMASTERED LUTE HOW TO
obviously this isn't to say that it's good that a subset of ffxiv or wow players get mad at people who don't do research and practice for how to maximize their play, just that it's interesting the degree to which the entire concept is reversed.īut i also think it's a kind of personal preference-some people will look up anything and everything, given, y'know, gamefaqs, and other people stubbornly want to find their own path to the end. Click to expand.i was also thinking the other day about the way that other games, especially multiplayer ones (whether co-op or not) certainly lack this stigma, and often have the opposite expectation.
