To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzes reviews to verify trustworthiness.
I am quite happy with this remake. It makes it much more accessible, no need for disc swapping. New game plus is improved. The menu translation is much better and no longer require you to look up guides on what those skills mean
Game of the year if not the past decade. Beautiful immersive music, excellent story and character development. So many improvements on the original. Do not hesitate to buy this and don’t judge it based on other star ocean games you have played. This one is on a whole other level of greatness.
I never played the original but this was fun. You can pick up different characters with each new game so you get different dialogue and endings depending who you grab. It has a new game plus feature to help get the extra endings.
the only star ocean game I’ve liked enough to beat
