This is going to sound like a total dick question but I swear I'm being sincere: Was there anything that was actually particularly good about Golden Sun?
I mean, I played the first one when it came out, but can't remember a single thing about it beyond the fact that it was an original RPG on the GBA and that it had nice looking sprites in battles. So was there anything exceptional about it in terms of gameplay, or story, or whatever, or do people like it for more nebulous, Dragon Quest style "it's just good" type reasons (and, I mean, if it is that's cool, again I'm not trying to be a backhanded jerk about it, but it's just not what I like these days)?
