Ys2 My observations:
The gameplay is the same, if not harder.
The graphics are upped a notch, think lunar Sega cd / PSX.
There are some very choice moments (remade).
When you meet Lilia, it's a very nice shot of her, and her voice
(Hisakawa Aya)(spelling?)
is very nice.
The gameplay suffers from the fact that it is, well, on Saturn...
Poor frame rates and compression make some truely great new
animations seem choppy and heavily pixelated. I haven't seen such poor
compression since
pretty fighter X ... (horrid game)
The soundtrack:
Some of the ORIGINAL music, like the ascension to YS(adol)
is better than the re-make.. Some things CANNOT be improved..Don't try.
Some tracks, like the death loop (continue?) are very nice. You'll
sit there for a minute to just listen.. like the zelda death music (nes
continue?)..
The game features a music jukebox, which I enjoyed a lot. There seem to
be
EASTER eggs hidden in the game.....
Let you know when I find out what they do...(graphics omake?)
