RAIDOU Remastered: The Mystery of the Soulless Army Review

1 week ago | dualshockers.com | Murillo Zerbinatto

Whenever I play a spinoff, I approach it with the mindset of not expecting a game as ambitious as the one it originated from while hoping to see references or similarities to it.

One of the things I inadvertently enjoy in JRPGs is when they let me visit areas or face bosses who are absurdly stronger than my party at that point in the main campaign.

How many of us, JRPG fans, have put a game aside, gone to take care of life, came back months later, and just started thinking, "What the hell was I doing here again?" Both in terms of gameplay and story. It's a communal feeling, I know. I stopped at Disc 2 of Lost Odyssey last year and still haven't dared to go back because I know I won't remember a thing and will end up restarting, throwing 20 hours of gameplay down the drain.

When Yuji Horii created Dragon Quest, he said he wanted to streamline some elements seen in RPGs like Wizardry and Ultima. Fast-forward a few years, and those simplified RPGs got the nickname of JRPGs. But the industry evolved, just like game creation and design.

What truly sets Western narratives apart from Eastern ones is that the former is plot-driven, while the latter is character-driven. To support storytelling focused on characters, we need an engaging cast that connects with the player. That is why so many JRPGs present phenomenal party members who are incredibly relatable, even if they are teenagers with the power to destroy gods while studying for the chemistry exam on Thursday.

After the PS1's smashing success, developers worldwide were dying to bring their games, or their sequels, to the PS2.
