This is such a great game. The gameplay holds up but you also get a good story and some humor to go along with it. It was just a high quality game all around.
Had nothing to do with the merger, hironobu sakaguchi was a major driving force at the company, the man knows how to create magic but not by himself by finding the best people for a project and throwing a concept and letting them imagine the most fantastical music/settings/stories, he made a crap extremely expensive movie called spirits within that flopped hard and got booted for nearly bankrupting the company, after that merger/money became more important to keep square from dying and the creative teams afloat and the rest is history
Oh fuck yeah! This game was my childhood. Legitimately the music in it is all bangers, and the story is incredible. Hidden jem of the century. Thanks for posting 😄
Given the recent string of new remakes being announced, and how Square has been re-releasing updated versions of their old games for modern platforms, I wonder if this will get at least the latter soon.
This is a great game. It had good gameplay and progression with skills unlocking. The story and characters were quirky and cute. What I remember most fondly is the amazing soundtrack that I play once in a while. The other thing I remember is the the dance or die rave. I am terrible at Simon says mini games. Lol
As part of the game you rescue these people hidden throughout the map that are encased in crystal. Some of them are part of a band. As you find more of them, their respective instruments get added to the soundtrack of the main city.
It all culminates into this beautiful orchestral ensemble that genuinely hits hard. Lol I’m thinking about replaying this again now for probably the 5th time.
