I’ve barely dipped my toes into Origins, but I’ve liked what I’ve seen so far.
A map would be nice though, since, so far, every room looks pretty darn similar and I get turned around easily
Hey, if I were to play the Ys series in order, it'd be:
Origin
I
II
Oath in Felghana
Memories of Celceta
V (fan translation)
VI
VII
VIII
...right? I always forget which remake overwrites which game.
Not quite, IV and VIII take place out of sequence:
Origin
I
II
IV (Memories of Celceta)
III (Oath in Felghana)
V
VIII
VI
VII
IX
I absolutely hated that bit in the PC Engine version. Surprised they haven't alleviated that over the years - it really is a terrible design decision.And that's Ys I cleared on PSP. That game is fantastic, other than the pointless backtracking all the way back dowm half of Darm Tower to get the item to unlock the last door. Bleh.
Onto Ys II.

Actually, Toal can understand the Roos, but he has to be in demon form when you do it. There are a few interesting tidbits relot/characterization there, iirc?
