What I love about Legend of Legaia is that was from the era where I bought games blindly just from browsing the games on the shelf and looking at box art.

That game came out in March of 99 and I got home from the military in May of 99. Three things I remember about that year when I first got home was picking up Legend of Legaia blindly and also Lunar Silver Star Story Complete blindly and later in the year getting Suikoden II. What a year!

I was (and still am) heavily into RPGs and loved stuff like this back then in an era where there just seemed to be gem after gem. This is the era when SquareSoft was releasing hit after hit after hit and other companies were stepping up and there was sooooooooo much good stuff in the PS1 era.

I watched the commercial and asked my mom to buy it for my birthday. I didn't even know it was an rpg. If I recall I think this is the first time I got into turn based RPGs. I had tried some out before but didn't like them.
