The value story
It has been discounted 20 times in the 6 years tracked here. The median cut across all of them is 35 percent, about 8 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 4 weeks ago.
Its score puts it in the top 1 percent of the games it competes with. It is pricier than 82 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 96 percent. Among the games that feel like it, Symphony of War: The Nephilim Saga ($19.99, scores 91) beats it on value, while it beats FINAL FANTASY IV ($17.99, scores 81).
$27.22 is where it would stop being a BANGER.

Me costó mucho terminarlo, no porque fuera malo o necesariamente obtuso, es un producto de su época, de la era dorada del JRPG de SquareSoft, y su historia me marcó de una u otra forma, definitivamente es una de esas experiencias que hay que vivir al menos una vez.
Pixel Demaster Very classic game, and not a great remaster imo. The sprite work looks worse to me than the SNES era, which is probably the most damning thing you could say for a remaster. The font is a disaster -- I can't believe there are two options (traditional and modernized), and traditional looks like an anorexic half-dead version of "modernized." Yes there are font mods, but shouldn't a text heavy RPG spend...
