Played the game 2 and a half years ago and only played Hugo's story and didn't realize you needed to play all 3 character's stories to get the true ending.
2 and a half years later I'm a massive Falcom fanboy due to falling in love with the Trails series, so fast forward to November 23rd of 2020 and I figured I should start playing more Ys, decided to replay this one knowing I only got a piece of the story last time I played it and I have to say it was very worth it.
Ys isn't really known for being the most story focused and is more about the gameplay (Which I found very enjoyable in Origin) and exploration, but what story there was in this game was quite engaging and emotional at times and the main characters were pretty interesting and had good development too. It's a very classic J-RPG story, (knights on a mission to save their goddesses from demons who want to use their power and rule over the land), but it's a good one all the same and I'd highly recommend it.
Also the game has another masterful OST by Falcom Sound Team JDK featuring some of their absolute best tracks yet like Silent Desert and Genesis Beyond the Beginning.
