Romancing SaGa 2: Revenge of the Seven is a lovely remake of one of Square's legacy titles and may be the best entry into the series for newcomers to dip their toes.

Despite my issues with some of the characters, Almata, and the underlying Xipha system, I still enjoyed my time at Calvard, seeing old friends and meeting new ones, and I am eager to return to one of my favorite long-form fictional works.

This brand new remake of the 1996 classic recaptures a lot of what made the original game great while infusing it with modern updates that will be great for new players but may turn off fans of the original.
