One of my all time favourite megadrive games. It's such a shame it gets passed off as a zelda clone. I always come back and play this game about once a year since the late nineties. I find the music, art style, dark story and atmosphere are just fantastic. The only drawback i can think of is I wish it were longer.

At the time, I saw it as a sega hidden gem that made me wish I owned a genesis system.

This game was developed by Nextech, and it was also released as Shin Souseiki Ragnacenty in Japan, and has a spiritual sequel called Linkle Liver Story, for the Sega Saturn, but released only in Japan. This game was published by Atlus (in the USA) but Sega published it in Europe and Japan. Edit: This game is actually a part of the Sega Mega Roleplay project which also includes the Legend of Heroes Dragon Slayer ports and the Last Armageddon Sega-CD sequel After Armageddon Gaiden.

Honestly, if you had just shown me screenshots of this game and told me it was a Super Nintendo/Super Famicom title, I'd have believed you. It's really rare to come across a MegaDrive game that is this good looking. As far as the price goes, these days, the retro games market has turned into a real speculation driven market. Some games are just unlucky to get high price tags for really arbitrary reasons.

@psychonaraproductions11446 жыл бұрын
@Sam Keyworth, most of the games you listed are very recognizable as MegaDrive/Genesis titles from just a quick glance due to lesser sprite art quality and the more limited color palette. The only games that are of the same caliber as Crusader of Centy's level of sprite art are Beyond Oasis and Flink, which utilize certain tricks to look as good as they do. I don't know why you brought up the old 3D games, those kinds of games haven't aged very well. Perhaps I needed to clarify that by "good looking" I was referring exclusively to sprite art and to things that are generally regarded as making certain sprite arts better looking like color and pixel density, things the Mega Drive usually traded for greater processing power.
@scissorman446 жыл бұрын

@BADC0FFEE6 жыл бұрын
Soleil has a great use of color and the character is extremely fluid, especially compared to A Link to the Past, that alone makes it look and play like nothing else from that era, even Story of Thor is very stiff by comparison
@scissorman446 жыл бұрын
I don't disagree with that(even though this game may have just a bit of the Shaq Fu problem. If you're fair with Shaq Fu, the animation is SMOOTH and detailed, objectively better than Street Fighter 2 when it comes to animation alone. Yes, I said that. However, because it uses the 12 principles of animation including principles you HAVE to subvert in order to make the game to play correctly, namely a heavy use of anticipation, the game plays slower. Hence the common complaint of bad controls. Which is the thing. A Link to the Past and Story of Thor are both snappier and in some ways faster paced because they emphasize faster if choppier animations. And while Crusader of Centy is NOWHERE near as bad as Shaq Fu in this front, it DOES play slower in certain aspects). And about color, I meant that colors in Genesis games are often used poorly and look like NES games with the heavy blacks and poor contrasts. The console's color palette is not as wide as SNES' but by no means it's bad(like this game shows, in the hands of the right people a Genesis game can look sweet). But just like the sound chip it was often extremely poor in the hands of incapable developers.

As a PAL collector, I'm surprised by the Genesis version's price tag. But I looked up for it on ebay, and there is a grand total of TWO copies on it, a loose one and one with the box but no instructions. The other ones on sale are just repro carts. Therefore, nope, there aren't "twenty copies" at any given moment and the high price is definetely due to rarity. I'd suggest to have your console modified or buy a PAL console. Even with a power adapter and a copy of Soleil, it would cost you significantly less.

It was pretty darn fun from a gameplay perspective. Sadly I really can't agree on the story. I found it to be a confusing, muddled mess especially the second half where I just had absolutely no idea what was going on. Somebody had to explain it to me after I finished. I don't know if it was a "lost in translation" thing or what. And related to that, it's a good thing I had a walkthrough handy because I had zero clue what my goals were or where I was supposed to go after the door gets mad at you for whatever reason.
