They are not connected. SaGa Frontier is an interesting game to remaster, it wasn't particularly well loved when compared to Square's output during the PS1 era. The inclusion of new content, including the cut protagonist is definitely interesting but I'm curious how "HD" the 2D elements of the game are and whether or not they ran the backgrounds through an AI upscaler. They haven't in the past with the Final Fantasy 7, 8, and 9 remasters.Are the Saga games connected, or are they like Final Fantasy?
1998 “classic”

I would say day one, but knowing SE they will want $30 for it, so yeah, fuck that.
Never played any game of this saga, so it's nice to have the chance.
Hope so. From what I remember it was a bunch of short stories that didn't really amount to anything. It's been a long time though. I also think I played this after FF7.Sounds like they're adding content that was cut when the game was originally released.
Music to my ears. Thanks!If you’ve never played a SaGa game, this is the most accessible and easiest one.
Maybe cause the director of FFXVI did the saga series. Would be funny if that was one of his conditions for directing the new final fantasy.I wonder why the saga series and mana series getting so much love from square these days. Are these games really more popular than chrono trigger? xenogears? Parasite eve?

This game got a lot of shit when it was released, but somehow I never played it. Always wondered if it was actually bad, or just bad compared to the rest of Square's PSX output, which is honestly an unfair and unreasonable measuring stick.
Will definitely pick this up at a good price.
All you need is the right persons for the right job, not necessarily the original creators but people with talent who understand where they were coming from and their goals, just like the SaGa classics' return is largely thanks to one huge SaGa fan in Squenix who basically did it all by himself.Most of the Xenogears team is over at Monolith now. If they were to make a new Xenogears, it would be in name only. Xenoblade is the successor to that series. Parasite Eve got its shot ten years ago. It wasn't great (Aya is still hot though).
Chrono is a tough one. Masato Kato is a hack and needs to be kept on a leash. Chrono Trigger was good because of Yuji Horii and Sakaguchi. Horii is easy enough to work with, but getting Sakaguchi back would be tough.

Chrono Trigger was good because of Akira Toriyama and Yasunori Mitsuda/Nobuo Uematsu. Toriyama was the artist for Dragon Ball which CT was heavily inspired on, and Dragon Quest which Yuji was in charge of, yet none of the DQ compare because of the music. Without Yasunori Mitsuda and Nobuo Uematsu tracks to go along with Akira Toriyama art, the game would've been shit, see Chrono Cross, great soundtrack, but the art/gameplay/story doesn't compare. Yoshinori Kitase can easily take Sakaguchi role, so that's a moot point.
baffeling

Kitase is a fucking fraud. He is one of the reasons FF sucks now.
Also, insinuating that Dragon Quests have bad music. Fucking lulz.
Theres so much wrong in this post its baffeling. It even ends with the biggest (and worst) hot take as well.
