So... if I get it right, it's basically the PSP version which was based on the PSX version ?
It's been a loooooong time since I've played SO2, so I'm not positive, but was this the game where I spent hours pickpocketing some dude in a town trying to get a really powerful weapon relatively early in the game?

The battle system is one of the best parts, are you insane!?
?
I think you misread my post.
I said they (would) need to change everything BUT the battle system.
Heavily updated. For one thing the PSP remake received all new character portraits, also the voiced dialog was tremendously improved over the awkward voiced work in battles from the PSX original. Also most of the bugs and issues that plagued that PSX version were done away with in the PSP re-release.
While the original artwork from the PSX version might be preferable to some (I like the older artwork better for example), despite this, from a mechanics and gameplay standpoint, the PSP re-release of Star Ocean 2 is the definitive version of the game, until the PS4 and Vita version comes along at least.
What I meant is that they kept the same graphics/base game, right ?
Yeah, i messed up. My apologies on that. That's what i get for reading posts too fast

Yeah, I prefer the character portraits of the original release. The PSP update had cheap-looking artwork, on top of making Rena look like a 12-year old loli doll. Ugh. Fucking otakus.
Wow, I just finished replaying the first one..
HOW DID THEY KNOW?
I can't wait to hear this game's mystical soundtrack again
Also, do you prefer to play as Claude or Rena? I usually go with Claude for the more interesting story in part 1, but Rena getsas a playable party member and has a more interesting story onDias.Nede

I don't even know what playing as Rena changes tbh =X
I should try doing a playthrough as her. Every time I played SO2 I only used Claude.
It's mostlythe beginning the forest and when she is kidnapped. Whenever they are seperated... and Dias being a recruitable character
Huh... I didn't miss much then =X
I'll try to play her if I get around to buying this version of the game.
If they're not going to port the first PSP remake too can they at least make it available on the NA PSN store so I can play on Vita?
Unless I play through all four entries I can't play 5. This is just how I am with the majority of series.
Yeah it comes down mostly to if you preferas they are each unique to the side you choose. Otherwise it's general storytelling differencesDias or Leon
Yeah... I always likedbetter =PLeon
Either way, it should be enough for a replay of the game to be interesting. There are some scenes I can see changing.
Do PAs change as well?
I believe some of them do. I can't remember though as it's been about5 years or so since I last played it.
Check out this version of Stab the Sword of Justice from the SO2 Arrange Album

Sorry for my ignorance, but SO is like FF? I mean each part different story and new characters?

This is pretty good. The SO4 arrangement though is the GOAT.
Will this look horrible playing on a big tv?

Yea, the chest that could contain literally any item in the game.

Also, physical attacks are up to a 3 hit combo instead of the 1 hit from the original.

I...am conflicted. I think the second game is the best in the series but I never played the PSP version so I'm unclear if it's better or worse than the PSX one...
