Mega Drive Longplay [485] Warsong

[@tubefu]

Warsong on Genesis has the best game soundtrack ever.

[@thomasmacdonough288]

Definitely in my top 3 for Genesis games.

[@DezorianGuy]

Too bad it (obviously) hasn't got the charm in any way of shining force - at least we got a kickass ost.

[@Brocuzgodlocdunfamdogson]

@@opaljk4835 L2’s ost is definitely good, but I personally think 1’s is better. The entire franchise has great music, tbh.

[@TincMetals]

Up there with Master of Monsters and Streets of Rage 2.

Back around 2nd grade (1997 or so), I remember reaching the Labyrinth level of Revenge of Shinobi in the morning and actually leaving my Genesis on all day (with the TV shut off) till I got home from school to finish it. The FEELS!!!!

[@danieln5738]

Man that first stage music was so amazing (all of it was though really)!! I love the way they just dropped you in the middle of the action with a crisis and overwhelming odds - and this absolute banger kicking it all off. 🤘🔥💀🔥🤘

[@Arselpang]

Need to play this absolute gem again! One of the best games of the roaring 90's.

[@benjaminhendrickson5435]

I was cleaning my grandma's attic out after she passed, and I literally bought a sega genisis and an old TV off of ebay just to play this game again when I found this cartridge in an old box of my stuff. It was so worth it.

Fucking Better be 15hrs. Fabulous game. Great game. One of the best.

[@igable82]

[@UltimaKeyMaster]

Wait a minute, so the Genesis has Intelligent Systems beat on bringing overseas both a Fire Emblem style game in Shining Force *AND* an Advance/Nintendo Wars style game in this?

[@MumblyJumbles]

And then it would happen again with Wargroove filling in the AW niche that Nintendo neglected for over a decade.

[@NotABot55]

This game has a remake as part of the Langrisser I & II set on PS4, Switch, and PC btw. (Warsong was the localized name for Langrisser I) The remake is quite different, though.

[@anthonyhydron6180]

Literally have been thinking about this game since the mid summer but couldn’t remember the name. Finally remembered Calsis and her upgrade from mage to wizard. Google finally got it. So happy.

[@MrMarkerickson]

I noticed that you got the bug later in the game that prevents your offensive magic from harming enemies. I've found that only happens if you play too many successive scenarios. If you play one scenario at a time, save and turn your machine off after finishing each one, then turn it on again for the next scenario, you can use a combo of thunders and fireballs to finish off Ganelon and Mr. Chaos.

[@deathblowringo4168]

Does this bug also persist in the japanese version (Langrisser) as well? However this also was fixed in Langrisser II.

[@MrMarkerickson]

@@deathblowringo4168 I don't know. I've never had the Japanese version.

[@incisor78]

You can just save game anytime before using magic. If the bug appears just reset and load then it will be fine

[@MarcusKMr]

Good, i loved this video game so much. I even beat all enemies in the first mission of my playthroughs Just epic and unforgettable thanky for bringing this up

[@NotABot55]

Correction to the video description: Warsong was the only Langrisser game released outside of Japan until Langrisser Re:Incarnation on the 3DS. (Its sister series, Growlanser, has had three entries in its series get an official English translation, one more than Langrisser has.)

[@VanceVelez]

This would be the game I would absolutely love to be the 40th or 41st game on the Sega Genesis Mini. A strategy game of this calibre is something all the mini consoles in the market lack. I know. I review all of them! It would help Sega blow the competition out of the water.

[@Geep1778]

There was a cheat code where you could replay any scenario to build up experience on your weaker characters to turn them into stronger ones. I loved that aspect and could’ve wait to see which character got buffed up the most in the next form. Oh and if you lost someone it was permanent so keeping them all safe was critical

[@foffhackers7499]

You're clearly looking for a Raspberry Pi. The latest version so far is *Raspberry Pi 3B+.* I've seen even Dreamcast being played with this device. It's a pocket size minicomputer with HDMI, Ethernet and WiFi capabilities and can handle up to 4 controllers. And it costs around $35-$40.

[@benjaminbarker6226]

It's not really a clone, It's a rival game that came out around the same time. This game is Langrisser just renamed for the North American audience. The series pretty much stayed in Japan until more recently. I actually prefer Langrisser to Fire Emblem. You can also get a English translation (by M.I.J.E.T.) of Langrisser 2 on the Mega Drive and it's an incredible game.

[@naejin]

Guys, you know you can play the modern mobile successor called, Langrisser Mobile, right? It's a blast that maintains the great strategic gameplay of Warsong (which is the English localized name to the originally Japanese game ned Langrisser). Note, the newer (from 2019) mobile version is licensed for development by Chinese companies. The new mobile version has Time Rifts that let you replay some old missions from the original franchise (many Langrisser were releases but no others used th Warsong title). There is also in-depth player vs player fights as well.

[@TSD4027]

Wasting XP on Thorne, Bayard, and Carleon as well as going Magic Knight on Sabra instead of Dragon Knight kills me.

[@anonnomus6070]

Just a little nit picking but why do you say Mega Drive in your title this was played on the Genesis. In America it was the Genesis not the mega Drive. If you were playing a Japanese version it would be played on the Mega Drive. I think I am correct.

[@PoisonedPocky]

It was also the Mega Drive in Europe. Basically, it was only known as the Genesis in North America. Everywhere else, it's the Mega Drive.
