Im excited! Also it sounds like Kenji Ito is back with music, always loved his style of battle music since the first SaGA games for the Gameboy

I've never played them, and I'm not quite sure I understood the game's selling points from this trailer.

The series is kinda weird, most strange one was Unlimited SaGa. But its mostly a turn based jrpg but you can play most of them through different characters and get to make choices.

And battles usually have some twists. Something that has been staple is learning new skills by using different weapons and skills.

I love SaGa, it's actually popular here in Japan, but I don't know anyone in America who has played any of them.

Its cool they are making a new game, i thought it was just another port at first. Will definitely be keeping my eye on it.

I am far more excited for Unicorn Overlord though. A spiritual successor to Ogre Battle by Vanillaware? Now that is a day 1 buy

I only played the original Gameboy games. I don't like the newer games with the LP systems. I did love the old ones though. I also played the remake of SaGa 2 on the DS which is one of the best RPGs square ever made imo

I remember that Romancing SaGa Re;Universe stated that the profit on that game will be directed for an effort to promote the franchise worldwide. Is this part of the project?

Multiple main characters each with their own scenario
Non linear scenario and open world
Free character build (tho they usually has some proficiency on certain weapons/ elements)
Challenging battles. Create 5-unit combos with abilities to deal more damage.

I mean

Only Saga fans like Saga. They are so weirdly obtuse, jank, and written so stupidly that it almost feels intentional. They are not easy games to get into.

SaGa games are very questionable except for the original two or three and even the remakes on the ds were odd.

Plus living down Unlimited Saga is a hard road.

MS while fun the enemies scale, the direction of the story is miniscule. The skills are just kinda random. There is no percentage bar telling when you are getting the next one. Other wise I like it. I have RS2 and 3. The PS1 SF and the ds games. Unlimited too but I heard its real bad

I really wanted to like unlimited but the fucking slot machine shit was so irritating.

It depends on game for specifics, but it's mostly about how much cocaine a developer can take while still being able to push out a finished product.

The series is on sale right now on the Switch, so you might look into that if you are interested.

No.
Multiple worlds probably like Saga Frontier's setting.

If you want crossover there's the gacha Romancing SaGa Re Universe.

Most likely.
No indication that this is a crossover game.

Im super EXCITED!

and Im shocked to see a topic about SaGa even get to 30 post.

Unfortunately, the way that RPGs go now, SaGa is a product of the Super Famicon days.

I mean, compare the lifetime of SaGa Frontier and the lifetime Final Fantasy 7

I have played SaGa Frontier way more than 7, but the narrative style of SaGa is at odds with the more theatric presentation of modern JRPGS (IMO)
