This is because instead of reaching traditional levels like you would in any other RPG, characters instead increase their raw stats after each fight and are usually tuned to their combat actions (strength for melee attacks, speed for guns, willpower for magic, and so on). The premise is that if the player participates in combat regularly, the system will build an invisible combat rank that should ‘accurately’ reflect the player’s combat potential. I won’t go into detail on the mechanics of SaGa’s combat ranking, if only because I still don’t quite wrap my head around it, in all fairness. Some of the more vulnerable spellcasters like Blue and, to a lesser extent, Asellus need a little more finesse and planning to find ideal growth without hitting a barrier. The two most recommended characters to start with are Red and Emilia, people with a good amount of combat potential to survive the challenge without too much trouble. Although if you have to play them all to get a complete story, everyone feels satisfying enough to play through to the end on their own (minus Lute, his story is still pretty awful). Each character has their own motivations and reason for going out into the world. SaGa Frontier Remastered puts an end to a linear style of storytelling and instead gives players the choice to choose one of seven distinctly different characters spanning the gamut of humans, mystics, monsters and mechs. In a few days, longtime fans will have the chance to experience SaGa Frontier Remastered for themselves. It’s safe to say that a project like this couldn’t have happened without the support of SaGa fans around the world who backed the series with the recent releases of Romancing SaGa on PlayStation 4 and Vita, as well as the mobile gacha title Romancing SaGa Re univerSe, a title I’ve sunk for a few dozen hours since its worldwide release last year. You can imagine my surprise when Square-Enix suddenly announced that not only was a remaster of the original title in the works, but that they would also add content once left on the cutting room floor, including an entire screenplay. Since then, I’ve given the title several tries and even completed a number of screenplays over time. Despite offering seven unique viewpoints, I only continued playing as the masked superhero Red / Alkaiser and even then I never managed to get all the way to the end. Despite the change in protagonist, Rouge’s initial ending is the same as the one for Blue.One of my first experiences with Akitoshi Kawazu’s unique RPG design was that of SaGa Frontier on the original PlayStation. If using New Game Plus, Blue will retain these lost combat skills if recruited by Fuse or when his scenario is replayed. His stats will be identical to Blue, but he will lose all weapon points and arts for swords, guns, and martial arts. Instead, players will take control of Rouge as the main character. However, losing the duel is not a game over. The Time magic spell Overdrive will give the caster multiple turns, allowing them to decimate the other. The fight with Rouge can be either easy or devastatingly hard. The objective is to defeat Rouge seven times before he can deplete Blue of all of his life points (starts at seven, but can be drained down to just two via shopping at Gozarus’ shop in Facinaturu). Blue’s collected magic will be exactly opposed to Rouge’s in three pairs: Light and Shadow, Arcane and Rune, Time and Space.
