@@thatdiversegamer9772'd like to see them release a remake of the first two games with some new gameplay elements such as random quicktime events for melee attacks and maybe touch-screen input for psynergy outside of battle; tri-elemental summons; more aggressive AI with enemies focussing on teamwork to cause as much damage as possible before being downed; bosses with large arsenals of attacks; the ability to fast-travel; characters and players being able to skip a turn in order to make 2 actions in the next turn; a more nuanced form of Djinn Storm which only puts half your djinn into recovery Also, in all future installments, the silent protagonist tradition should go. It doesn;t add anything to the story, and a speaking protagonist would greatly aid in character development, as would a flashback or two into the childhood friendships between Isaac, Felix, Jenna and Garet.

I remember my Link Battles against my cousin. Tisiphone Edge and Atropos Rod were my main weapons. I used to be so lucky with their procs; insta-kills and 9 arrow volleys were so addicting to the point that my cousin started doing them to me. They are still my fav weapons to this day. I’m hoping for a port/HD remaster of GS 1+2 to the Switch someday.

It's funny. I'm replaying the series on my Wii U. And I just today, saw this video. It is my favorite JRPG/RPG/favorite All time game series. The story is phenomenal and the battle sequences are amazing. I tell all my friends about it, and they look at me like, "what are you talking about." I remember waiting for Golden Sun: The Lost Age to come out. I played the ever loving hell out of it, when it did. When Dark Dawn was announced, I flipped my shit, and was so happy that to build my self-hype, i replayed 1&2, AND preordered Dark Dawn. Yeah, I'm making this comment only three minutes in, but I'm glad that there are others that love it as much as I do.

For finding the Djinn in the wild there is a "secret" clue: if a yellow road on the worldmap doesn't bring you to a town or a cave but it brings you to normal trees there you can find a Djinn ;D I loved this game as a child, I wish it returns for the switch somehow. Nice video!/

The game not telling you where you had to go and what you had to do all the time is actually a subjective thing. To me it's a positive characteristic, as it makes it challenging and forces you to go out and explore. A lot of games these days treat players like idiots and spoon feed them everything.

Sometimes I take breaks from games for a bit, and then I forget what to do, I like Golden Sun: Dark Dawn for a lot of things, and a big thing to that is it reminds you what to do with a somewhat cryptic hint, I wish they would have done that in Golden Sun 1 and 2, I wish it would remind me sometimes with cryptic hints, or a riddle.

yuuuup so much this, I at least wish modern games gave you the option to turn off the handholding, the big golden quest markers, little ledges glowing because god forbid you have to search for it. Maps with little dots guiding you every step of the way like a good little doggy. Some people don't mind it and that's fine but options people options! leme turn it off :( (witcher 3 allowed you to turn some of this off at least so credit where its due, playing that game without a map made it so much better for me. Thank god for the souls series. I felt like I was swimming for days underwater and when demons souls released I could come up for a breath lol.

Difficulty is a problem for all rpgs. The problem is the developers need to account for how much optional stuff the player is going to do along the way. A difficulty setting would be nice, but besides that, I think the problem with Golden Sun is there's not enough endgame stuff to do. I'm a big fan of when games add in super bosses which are only possible if you truly master the combat system. Nothing really gets to that point in Golden Sun imo.

Now imagine if TLA started the same way as Golden Sun 1. First we have a young Felix waking up in his home before the events in the intro of the first game, you get to explore around, maybe fight a mob or two (reintroducing game mechanics) . Then it turns out to only be a dream and he finds himself on a floating island with the gang + Alex, thats when the game officially begins.

With the 20th anniversary later this year, I finally replayed both GBA Games since 2008, and it was a blast replaying the First Golden Sun. I cannot begin to explain how many hours I put into it on multiple save files. Like its the perfect length for an RPG and the Djinn Class system is just deep enough to mess around that it adds a lot of replayability. I hope we get to see something Golden Sun related for the 20th birthday, even if its just a Remake (or even a port, im this desperate for acknowledgement Camelot) its definitely a series I think most people should take a look at.

Ah yes.. The golden age of video games...where game devs put pride and passion over profits. A time when game devs would have rather created these perfect worlds for us just to cement their legacy creation. Today game devs dont give a shit about imprinting their passion/legacy into these games but only work on rushed deadlines and only keep " will this be profitable " in mind. I demand justice for the RPG industry! Remake gs1/2 as a 3d title with old school graphics...oh and remake legend of dragoon ffs!

Supposed Golden Ages are always people 's childhood or teenage hood for some reason. Wake up. Deadlines and profit concerns always existed and collective game industry didn't lost its "soul" suddenly. There was bad games always and good games are still being made. "BUT THEY HAVE TUTORIALS" is not a criticism.

I started play this when I was 8 or 9 I finally beat the game yesterday.... I am 17. This game has always been a favorite of mine since finding out about it. I would recommend anyone to play it if you love a story rich game. And the second game, The Lost Age, is amazing as well, but the 3rd one, The Dark Dawn, is not the same as the first two and watching some of the game play really confused me. All of that said, the first two games of the series are phenomenal!

My 1st time going through the Lamakan Desert i didn't know there were hidden oasis. So what I did was I let the meter fill andwas healing like no tomorrow to get through it. It was one of the most intense parts of the game to me and getting past it made me as the player feel like I did something that only that group could do compared to the rest of the characters in the game.

God I love this game! I wonder what could possibly give that away... Anyway I REALLY hope this game gets put on the 3DS VC. I would buy it in a heartbeat. I need it in my life again. I still have the second game to this day... just no system to play it on. And the first one is so hard to find and is freaking expensive online. I just want to play it again. Legitimately. No roms. No emulators. No. I want this game to live again. Hell this game sparked my interest in writing! *sigh* More than anything, really, I want this game to be rebooted. I'd take it if it were just ported, but i want this game to be the main Nintendo flagship RPG that it was meant to be.

Hey fellow Sakuraba fan! Also, thanks for doing a video on Golden Sun. This game is incredible. If you're interested, I covered all the songs in the first 2 Golden Sun games on my channel. I tried to stay as authentic to Sakuraba's style and instrumentation as possible. I hope you're interested.

Much love for mentioning Ogre Battle. Though like Golden Sun it's future is very tenuous as well. Considering it's in Squares hands and they won't touch anything that isn't final Fantasy or kingdom Hearts. I raise my banner for both franchise. Golden Sun and the Ogre series were gems and I'm sad we haven't seen anything new from either
