Love Sega's multiplatform support <3 !
Everyone should taste games, whatever platform you're on.

i never of this series. This game story sounds like it belongs in the tales series though.

Meteor7 · Feb 21, 2018

The battles remind me a bit of the Tales series, so it's immediately got my attention there. I'll have to wait and see how the framerate performs on the Switch before I make a decision on which system to get the game, but first impressions on it definitely have me interested.

Is this game multiplayer ? why dont they realeased multiplayer games like this so you can play with a friend or couple in the same switch in the same house ?????????????

leon315 · Feb 21, 2018

Well, this game will probably support 1080p 60fps for ps4/x1/pc, and as usual
It will ran only 30fps on switch,ofc this just rumours, Sega still haven't released any info about it.

this game is single only adventure action rpg game, despite lacking of a multiplayer mode, this game features many kawaii grills, full of hot highheels, short skirts and great fan- bOObs - service :rolleyes:

Possibly, though there are a lot of ways to optimize the battles when they run in their own isolated space. I think it'd be more than possible for the battles to run at 60fps, with everything in the overworld running at 30. Previous games have made use of this technique, so if the team has the forethought and opportunity to implement it, the Switch version may very well see 60fps battles.

EDIT: Nevermind, looks like I misunderstood things. The battles take place in the overworld itself, though when you encounter enemies, several objects are unloaded and your battle space is restricted. With that being the case, I think the 60/30fps battle/overworld split is much less likely, which is unfortunate.

The important question is: is this game good? Since I am fan of the "Tales of" saga, I am pretty interested on it as I was when I heard about it in the PS3 release back then

From the gameplay video I'm watching, I'm seeing active dodges, blocks, major attack cut-ins, combos; all things that remind me of Tales. I find it a bit doubtful that the game could live up to the pedigree and polish that the Tales franchise has accrued over the decades, but from what I can tell, the game looks fairly promising in its own right. At the very least, the fact that it's getting a remaster must mean that it was a relatively well received game at the time it was released.

I dunno if i can care enough about this anymore. Not since is not what I'm used to, turn based tactical rpg like the genesis games once was, with the original developers now making mario sports titles for nintendo. Why we can't get another shining force game? Just Cooperate with nintendo, sega!

TheRealNGB · Feb 21, 2018

Just wanted to point out to those new to new to the "Shining" is that it predates "Tales", and has gone through several rpg style iterations over the years, dungeon crawler, tactical turn based, action rpg, and even arcade style online mmo, but is best known for defining tactic style rpgs in the 90's on sega, sega cd, and saturn, with the Shining Force series, which are still highly recommend as some of the best games available on those platforms.

I can't really comment on there later action rpg style games, as the combat systems, and story arcs change significantly through each title, but what little I played of the ps2 titles showed some promise, and Sega's has a ton of experience with this particular genre and franchise.

Was gonna look into it on PC.. Then I see the Switch logo...

Interesting, I think its cool that the series is stil... continuing in some fashion. I have only ever played Shining Force Legacy of Great Intention and just a little bit of Shining Force 2.

H1B1Esquire · Feb 21, 2018

This is not my Shining.

Shining Force I-III HD remaster Jr. DX, please.

Yeah I think most would agree that the series was at its best in the form of a tactics style rpg, and would prefer to see the title return to those roots, the franchise has definitely gone through a identity crisis over the years which hasn't done the name justice.

Now it seems to muddled and has no real identity other than retaining the word "shining" in its name. Even the GBA remake of Legacy seemed to suffer a lot from identity crisis too. Were there a few Shining games on the PS2 or am I losing my mind?
