It's very nice. Great soundtrack especially

Oh god yes, I think I'll acquire the OST myself. Such a great way to remix a game.

I just went ahead and finished the 3rd game myself.

Ys: The Oath in Felghana (PSP)

It was nice to finally have an attack button again (but no doubt I do love the ramming system mainly for its creative boss fights). Overall I would say it was great. A few things lost from its predecessors, but a few things gained. Game's always had great boss fights and this one's no exception, providing a real challenge at times. The music has suffered though. Or rather, the first two in their remake are just really a tough act to follow. I'm also mired by alot of grinding here. It's most especially glaring by the final boss where I literally had to spend hours getting that HP increasing potion in order to tank the final boss. I don't mind the repetitive gameplay loop of having to whack monsters silly; that's always been an Ys staple I guess, but I wouldn't have minded a few puzzles instead of the completely combat-focused accessories you acquired.

Probably my biggest praise is on the stellar voice-acting. Words flowed well and spoken properly, giving me a front row seat to the tale. As cliche as the story is by today's standards, I wouldn't have minded it if only to listen to these people express themselves taking the whole thing seriously.

It's not so cliche anymore when it's happening to you.
