Magic also works in a similar way, where using magic can level up that type of magic, adding more abilities and bonuses. Comparisons could be made to Final Fantasy’s Active Time Battle system, but in lieu of individual meters, all heroes and enemies are displayed on a line at the bottom, moving forward as their turn comes up.

Some people are very demanding en so they will diss out whenever they get the chance. This little story alone might garner some DLC in a modern RPG. system.

Even still, the story has some supreme goofiness and low-key pacing issues, but it’s an enjoyable romp that occasionally juggles some good emotional beats next to the occasional dips into breezy absurdity.

models haven’t aged well, but Grandia HD Collection does an impressive This game collection should deserve at least an 8! I know it because I got it for the Switch (stupid me because on Steam I could have refund it), and if such a old game looks like that and has bugs, then that port (the word remaster is far away) is shit. While a little pricey and devoid of extras, GRANDIA HD Collection nonetheless means you have two excellent classic JRPGs that gives its unrivaled battle system another chance to shine. I can't believe some of the comments I've read, Anyway, it's sad to know the port has a bunch of glitches and problems that have been overlooked. Oddly, the camera will perform a very strange wobble as it zooms in and out as your party attacks. Grandia HD (Switch) Review. Depending on how well you plan, this can even lead to you going through some battles without getting anybody hit at all.

battle freezes and a command can be chosen. I was keen on having a copy for the Switch but if this port crashes and loses progress I’m not paying £35 for it. https://twitter.com/VictSok/status/1163267864939438080. Great ports of amazing & timeless games. Mitch clearly says that both games are great. For those that don’t know, GungHo has announced a patch that is set to attempt to fix some of the technical performance issues within the game. I understand the score, but I will keep chuggin' on thru Grandia 2 next, which will be my second play thru.Sometimes nostalgia is a warm, calm and soothing bubble bath; but you have the hiccups pretty hard. Battles take place on a separate screen with an isometric view. I'll probably buy this collection if they fix these issues. https://www.nintendolife.com/news/2019/08/sickhead_games_helped_out_with_the_grandia_hd_collection.

I've never liked the concept of publishers releasing an unfinished or glitchy product on the premise that they can always patch it later (if ever). having never played these specific games before, Grandia HD Collection both titles in order to smooth out some of the rougher looking edges.

Interesting to see these different takes on things. Okay haven’t gone through all the comments so who knows what already discussed. Grandia was once again lost in the shuffle, despite being practically even (or better) in terms of critical response. Despite being The timeless quality and fun factor of the two games included make it unfair to give this one a low score, yet the shoddy work done on the porting and remastering holds it back from being worthy of a high one.

Relax, j/k but I’m still picking this up because this is lowest score I’ve seen for it with sites like Nintendo Enthusiast and Nintendo World Report both giving it 80 and several other sites giving it pretty decent reviews as well. If they fix the issues, I’ll get it. Things get interesting here, however, because characters are made more vulnerable in that ‘cast time’ between selecting and doing an action, and this vulnerability can be exploited to either delay or outright negate the action that was being attempted. What happened? Even though the audio glitches are pretty awful in places in the first game, I'm still working my way through it. Good to know.

Even Shame. So, for example, if an enemy is winding up for an attack and you manage to hit them before they can get it off, you push them back on the gauge and cancel it.

I really miss living in South Korea. And of course Suikoden 2, and another fantastic gem - Wild Arms, and then the rare but superb RPG/dating sim Thousand Arms, and then Rhapsody which got a shoddy re-release on DS many years ago, and another rare gem - Legend of Mana...That’s just a short list. encounters are absent, meaning players can see enemies wandering on screen and

It’s like the old saying goes “different strokes for different folks”. Nintendo Life has rated higher games that I think are worse than this collection. However, one part it doesn’t talk about that further supports the argument is the price. them far more visually entertaining. @HeroOfCybertron "QoL features" is a catch-all term for features added to a game to make it more enjoyable or smooth to play and otherwise bring the game up to the 'modern design standard'.

I found this to be a strange, minor detail, but there were actually times that the wobble was so bad that my wife- a diagnosed epileptic- couldn’t watch me play. Avoid these ports on switch. If you can stomach the rampant performance problems and lazily-remastered assets, this is still a portable, reasonably stable version of two wonderful games. Grandia HD Collection’s filter is really only ever a problem when This score is too generous. It seems like almost all problems could be fixed with a patch but it’s pretty unprofessional to even let the game release in that state. @HeroOfCybertron the SEGA Ages series is a good example of “quality of life” upgrades such as the added map on Phantasy Star or the spin dash on Sonic 1. It’s a shame that these games were badly ported. cheesy English dubs. Everything pops up very fast and the native 16:9 widescreen is added.

On the other hand, Grandia II is darker and a little more political, following the story of a foul-mouthed mercenary named Ryudo who – after picking up a job protecting members of a church during a strange ritual – gets caught up in a desperate quest to prevent the return of the god of darkness. While the late ‘90s voice acting doesn’t hold up all that well (Japanese audio is more pleasing and easy to switch to), the writing is fine more often than not. The original versions of the games are an easy 9/10, but GungHo's porting job is atrocious.

There is one during the first 2 hours of the game in which Justin’s mother tells the story of how she and Justin’s father met. The blocky models and fuzzy lines have been smoothed out and are now much more presentable. What's this? I believe it’s like £35 in the UK. So much so that I can envision the plucky star Justin trying to convince Cloud and Barrett from Final Fantasy VII that he’s an adventurer who rightfully deserves a seat at their theoretical table of classic, genre-defining RPGs. The game is filled with moment after moment of sentimental layers and growth for each character. A Revived Classic.

the PSX vs. Saturn versions of the first game) between the original multiplatform releases for both games have supposedly each been merged into one cohesive whole.". Though the two games included here are still enjoyable RPGs in their own right, Grandia HD Collection is, unfortunately, a game that embodies the concept of ‘cut corners’. This aint REMAKE but a remaster. It's a shame this apparently has such sloppy QC. At the very least, Grandia stands tall next to its other late ‘90s contemporaries.

Grandia HD Collection does what it can to help players forget they’re
