Oh, I had no idea, adding it to the backlog!
On some other, more worthy timeline than ours, Matsuno is one of the most successful auteurs in the gaming industry instead of burning out.Yasumi Matsuno has never made a bad game. I like everything he directed. And Vagrant Story is, especially given that it was made for the PS1, a fucking masterpiece.
In my utopia, we would've gotten another mainline Final Fantasy set in Ivalice. It's genuinely my favorite setting Square have ever put out. Just... this time without teenagers like Vaan and Penelo in the main cast.On some other, more worthy timeline than ours, Matsuno is one of the most successful auteurs in the gaming industry instead of burning out.

Amazing!PSX era Square was incredible.

Great game, I still got it setting up on my shelf alongside Parasite Eve.![]()
Thanks for reminding me.On some other, more worthy timeline than ours, Matsuno is one of the most successful auteurs in the gaming industry instead of burning out.
Back then, Squaresoft was on FIRE.That was an holy trinity of games, holy shit, when square was still good, it was super fucking good.
Saga Frontier 1 and 2.Back then, Squaresoft was on FIRE.
Bushido Blade, Ehrgheiz, Einhander, Threads of Fate, Parasite Eve, Final Fantasy Tactics.....shit man you were in for a fucking good time.
I bought it again on PS3 - but I dont know if it plays on PS5?I would love if they ever did a remaster or remake. I've tried this when I was a wee lad, and confused AF.
I love the art style and world so I hope they do something with it. Even a shitty port to play it on PSN.
You speak the truth.He is GOATed.
FFXII is my fave JRPG ever.
Vagrant Story my fave dungeon crawler ever.
FFT and TO both share best SRPG ever
You can't , only sony first party games are on the ps5 and only a handful of them. They don't give to shits about backwards compatibility Jim Ryan said so himself. They used to, but that was when Ken Kutaragi, Kaz hurai and Jack Trentton were in charge of playstation. Back when they made games.I bought it again on PS3 - but I dont know if it plays on PS5?
DuckStation, when set up properly (sometimes a specific game needs tailoring to) is one of the best ways to enjoy these old games. I might sound like I keep repeating myself, here, but it really does breath new life into these games. Any form of retro gaming that enhances the originals without compromising the artistic vision is good in my book.I used Duckstation for this replay, which lets it run in HD and without most of the warping. Still holds up graphically thanks to the great art direction.
Also, give me Vagrant Story, Xenogears and Front Mission 3
FFVII, FF Tactics, Xenogears and Vagrant Story are all in my top 50 of all-time
No Vagrant Story, Alundra, Vandal Hearts, Front Mission 3 or a bunch of other classics I'd happily buy and replay again
Day 1, shoutout to Matsuno, give me Vagrant Story too.
1998 - MGS, Zelda:OoT, FF Tactics
1999 - Silent Hill, CTR, Soul Caliber (DC)
2000 - Vagrant Story
2001 - MGS2
2002 - Metroid Prime, Windwaker
To be clear, I want these PS1 classics with trophy support:
Vagrant Story
Xenogears
Vandal Hearts
the darkly magical Vagrant Story
Bring back Vagrant Story, Xenogears and Parasite Eve
As a huge Final Fantasy fan there are numerous Square games from that PS1 golden age I'd take before IX to get the remaster/remake treatment be it Vagrant Story, Xenogears, FF Tactics, FFVIII or Parasite Eve
The PS1 represents the Golden Age of Square, was hoping to see characters from FF VII-IX, Tactics, Parasite Eve, Vagrant story etc
where the fuck are my Vagrant Story, Parasite Eve, FF Tactics and Xenogears remasters Square?
No one has chronicled himself more, at least.Has anyone on GAF shouted out this game more than I have? Probably not lol. Stone cold classic, give it to me Square, overdue.

True, otherwise folks would rage, what with the dude protagonist's name being Ashley and his asscheeks hanging out instead of Callo's. Also cos of the various men in skirts, corsets, catsuits and more unorthodox clothing choices alongside their apparent devotion to/obsession with other menThat into would be censored to fuck for modern audiences.
