The Break Down: SaGa Emerald Beyond

Steam page: rb.gy/2h5fbp Key provided by Square Enix.
SaGa is easily Square's most bizarre franchise, with a fascinating history and some inventive mechanics developed over decades of entries. 17 worlds worth of narratives and exploration and 6 campaigns and main characters mean quite a lot of content to experience. The combat is one of the most complex turn-based battle systems I've seen, and carries the game far on its own, especially when combined with the interesting party member mechanics. If you're in the mood for a budget JRPG and are ok with the shortcomings that entails, I think it's well worth jumping into this one, but be ready for an odd take on traditional RPG ideas.

The way you explained this game made me way more interested in it than I was. Curiosity brought me to the video and now I have it on my wish list. I've dabbled in SaGa games, Romancing SaGa 3 and the remaster of Minstrel Song but am guilty of not finishing either (yet).

Doesn't look like my kind of game, but I always enjoy and appreciate your thorough and detailed reviews.

Thank you very much!

The skill and stat system reminds of The Legend of Legacy on 3ds. I'm not a huge fan of those systems, I guess I like seeing the xp numbers go up lol

I had completely forgotten about that game for a while. It's a weird way to do leveling.
