The first named Shining Force game for consoles after Camelot departed for Nintendo - don't know why it bears the Force subtitle tbh, it's a Diablo-like instead of a strategy RPG. I haven't played Diablo but I like the core kill->loot->sell->upgrade->kill loop here, and the fun dynamic between Max and Meryl helped get me over the gargantuan 50-hour runtime. Could be a LOT better - I'm told EXA is, but I also don't know if I want to jump right into another one of these just yet.

Nothing but respect for Baron the wolfling

Shining Force definitivamente mudou. A franquia que outrora era um jogo tático rivalizando aí com Final Fantasy Tactics e Tactics Ogre mudou para um RPG de ação.

Neo é na real um hack'n'slash bem rápido e mais próximo da série Ys do que da origem tática. É um jogo bem divertido e com ideias bacanas que mistura conceitos que soam familiares pra jogadores que curtem o gênero diablolike.

Yeah I watched a friend play this and it was just amazing. the gameplay had so many deep mechanics and the characters are just written in a very unique way. Sure the voice acting is bad but honestly what doesn't have bad voice acting.

I'm shining on the inside and outside now. I feel like am improved, stronger me. A Neo me, you could say. In fact, at this point I may as well be a Shining Neo Force of sorts

This game saved my marriage.

Perfect soundtrack, perfect story, perfect audio design, perfect level design, perfect everything.

When I showed this to my wife who was about to divorce me at the time, I showed her only the intro, and she once again was reminded as to why she fell in love with me.
