Hearing that incredible score, seeing all these different characters, and reading the comments from people who have emulated the game, have me positively HYPED.

[@Alilatias]

Quintet Trilogy would be amazing, especially since Terranigma never made it to the US and has essentially achieved mythical status just like Live-A-Live did. They're also action RPGs, so seeing how games in that genre would work in this art style would be super interesting to see. I imagine those games are next on the list to be remade in this style.

I wasn't too big on the battle system, though, myself. Hopefully I'll like it more here. I do agree on the music though.

[@galford90]

I never played this game, nor did I heard of it. Seems really nice. Can someone tell me if the story is like "octopath traveler"? I had a problem with that game, the characters never interact with each other, you just have a party and complete each story on its own. Watching this trailer, it gives me some good vibes, but I'm afraid it's something like Octopath Traveler all over again

[@Alilatias]

@@galford90 The game has a very different structure from Octopath. All of the scenarios are completely self-contained chapters until the very end (and seriously, don't spoil yourself on how). There's even multiple endings for some of the scenarios, and many of the scenarios undergo some major genre shifts. Like the distant future scenario is sort of survival horror and involves almost no combat at all, the modern day scenario actually doesn't have an overworld to travel in and is more of a homage to Street Fighter, and Japan scenario is sort of stealth with endings based on how many people you end up killing (probably one of the major things that inspired Undertale, it's well documented now that Toby Fox was a huge fan of this game).

[@galford90]

@@Alilatias I see, thank you for letting me know. But just to know, do The characters meet each other and have interections or opinions about other scenarios or something like that? I'm sorry if I'm being repetitive, but one of my most loved games is final fantasy 6, and I always end up comparing other jrpgs like that

@@mathieuswales575 its similar to romancing / saga frontier. The difference is, in the SaGa games you choose from characters that follow a fairly non-linear gameplay loop and occupy the same world. In Live A Live each character has their own world and their stories are quite linear. The characters in Live A Live do come together at the end to fight the last boss though, after you beat all their individual stories.

[@xxJing]

Megalomania sounds awesome!!

[@Hamburgaga]

Genuinely thinking of picking this up

[@OmegaMetroid93]

Holy crap, the new version of Megalomania is sick! From what little was in this trailer at least. Can't wait for the full version.

[@Cheezepin]

i'm just thinking about the fact we get to hear Go! Go! Buriki Daioh orchestrated, probably with lyrics, and that just has me so excited

[@BayleyBengal]

Love seeing more classic JRPGs brought to the west!

[@Wheeljack84]

0:48 Clint Eastwood is my favorite character from Square.

I’m just just excited to see how they’re gonna remake the Watanabe gag. It’s gonna be so hilarious yet also sad

[@lukiapotato8526]

HERE IT IS!!! It's just mere seconds, a tease, a heart throb. But we've caught a glimpse at what MEGALOMANIA will sound like and it. Is. FIRE! Beautiful. Wished my friend could see this too. 2022 is the year, brother, so sorry it took so long but dreams come true!

[@gamevoice102]

That megalomania remix is awesome, i'm so ready for this game!

[@hagetasensei3049]

1:27 待ってました! この曲を現代編で聴くために買います!

[@TonyKanameKuran]

Kudos to Square Enix and Nintendo of America. FINALLY!!!! Live A Live has come to America!!!!

[@howiethao277]

The robot Kirby with glasses has an amazing character design. Instant love

[@EminenceAlpaca]

Oh my god I’ve been hoping this would be remastered forever now. Akira’s VA is so good. I can’t wait.

[@VonFirflirch]

You know, I didn't have the best of times playing the original, but as I experienced it at the end of my days as a student... it stuck to me, and I still have strange nostalgia for it. I'm relly excited for the remixed music, especially the Middle Ages era's.

[@charcharmunr]

It's more of an open secret at this point, but now it's gonna be awkward talking about and then people ask "Oh where's the knight guy".

[@WhoWouldIBe]

To be fair, the way they are presenting Oersted IS different from everyone else. There is always small details on each aspect of his presentation that stand out, but you probably wouldn't notice if you didn't think about it. There is also the fact that we FINALLY have a lot more official art of the character, something be barely even had outside of the content from the crossover with that one mobile game.

[@RockEsper]

At least they’re still keeping a major twist a secret ;)

[@YourMomsAltAccount]

I hope nobody stumbles apon this, original comment should be edited with a spoiler warning.

[@VonFirflirch]

@@YourMomsAltAccount Yeah, I figured. I've removed the first part now.

[@ClessTheAngel]

OMG THE SUNDOWN KID SOUNDS AWESOME!!! CAN'T WAIT!!!! The other english cast is great too!! ^^ Lookin forward to it!!

[@KswiftRob]

I would love to see a legend of Zelda game in this style

[@TonyKanameKuran]

Only if they ask Square Enix to use that technology as well as Unreal Engine 4.

[@GreyWolfLeaderTW]

Wow, we're finally getting one of the most infamous Japan-Only SNES games.

[@Mark0o0Polo]

I'm so happy this got chosen to be revived.

[@kieronireikets7884]

This has been on my want-to-play list ever since there was that Region Locked episode. I would never have expected it to be remade, and translated! So excited~

[@MisterHeroman]

Emulation.

[@kqlin34]

I need to listen to the remix of "Go! Go! Buriki Daioh!" NOW
