Game Informer - Grandia was the first RPG that kept me awake at night. The skillful way in which the player is rewarded for getting through dungeons and other various enemy-infested areas is something I have rarely seen done well. Game Arts made sure that any time you were fighting battle after battle and trekking through a seemingly endless area, you learned more about Justin and friends’ story. This made even the task of literally going to “the end of the world” not only doable but also enjoyable. Admittedly, it also made it harder to put the controller down on school nights.
The Nerd Stash: “The letter scene in Grandia is a magnificent, layered early example of the game's wonderful NPC interactions, and a real tear-jerker.”
Teardown out today, November 15, all other titles available from November 21.
Been thinking of getting Teardown on Steam for Steam Deck play. Heard a lot of great reviews for it.
Nothing of interest for me. My sub is up in 2 weeks & I'll go with Essentials only for cloud saves & online. Having Extra or Premium is a waste for me seeing most games that land on the service are old that I've played already or old games I never had any interest in playing.
With one of the best combat systems ever, I would love to see this series resurrected.
And I wish the Shadow Hearts Series would return. It had one of the funniest combat systems ever in a j-rpg
i wish the damn collection would be on ps5 already.
i think the grandia series died with 3. just wasnt good. xtreme wasnt good either.
1 and 2 are the best.
Shadow hearts needs to come but also grandia collection with 1 and 2 never came to PS4. Still waiting lol till then I play the ones on the PS3 they have them all on there for 8$ each
I wish Wild Arms would return, I wish Namco would do an HD remaster or remake of the Xenosaga trilogy. I wish the Ar Tonelico trilogy was ported to PS5, I also wish Ar Nosurge and Ciel Nosurge were on PS5. I would jump for a new Grandia game. I wish SquareEnix would bring Xenogears to a modern console.
