It's okay. Very standard and mediocre PS2 JRPG

If this ends up EU only is there a way I can get it and okay it in my US account?
Also is this a trap like Grandia 3?

I liked the hit buttons to find new moves of the first one but everything else were not remarkable.
You can buy with a EU account and play with your US account in the same system.
I doubt it ends up EU only, but yeah, you just need to create an EU account and buy some PSN credit. there are some easy tutorials out there, just google them and you will find something.

Not particularly interested in this one, to be honest, but keep the JRPGs coming!

When I first came to GAF, there was actually a Legaia 2 thread stickied at the top of the forum. Probably some mod's idea of a joke, but there were enough positive impressions that a young, impressionable Catchpenny went out and bought it at full price.

People seem to like me because I am polite and I am rarely late. I like to eat ice cream and I really enjoy a nice pair of slacks.
In terms of "mediocre", how does it pale to Okage?

YES.
holy shit. I played this game so much.
Only problem I had with the game was there there wasn't any post game content. You could max out characters but there isn't any powerful enemies to use it on other than the weak final boss.

Sakimoto is so talented. One of my favorite vgcomposer with David Wise and Mitsuda.
The time has finally arrived!

this is mediocre? my standards must be pretty low if this is considered mediocre. I had a blast playing this.

I liked Legaia 2, especially the expanded movesets and character fighting styles, but they ditched the Seru catching for a standard magic system.

Can you elaborate on why these issues can't be fixed if the game is being emulated?
I remember loving the first game because or its unique combat system and its soundtrack. Also one of the few PS1 era rpg games where your equipment actually changed the look of your character. Might give this a shot if its priced well. I also remember the unholy amount of time it takes to grind levels.
No relation at all. Entire different settings/characters.
I think Legaia 2 took place long after the first Legaia, the story isn't related at all.
You get some cool information about one of the character in the first one on some painting

Its funny that such an obscure jrpg got 2 legendary composers working for it.
Not even the first Legend of Legaia got Sakimoto and Mitsuda as composers. Yet the sequel that nobody heard of, got these 2 brilliant guys.
Its like if Atelier Iris got Uematsu together with Shimomura working on it.

The first game had Michiru Oshima, who is a very famous anime composer. She later went on to compose the soundtrack to ICO, as well.
Same, i really like the game overall, also a lot of endgame content, optional boss, also a LOT of hidden dialogue when you came back to older place. I thought this game was really good. Also pretty challenging game overall. I think this is far from mediocre...
The music is also very good. The more it think about it i was easy on m y top 10 RPG of Ps2.

Good, keep the JRPGs flowing. now, where is Shadow Hearts?
Anyway, I loved the first game to death. One of the game that I and my pal played together. But I'Ve heard the second entry is mediocre...

First game, armor changed look on character, second game weapons changed look on character.
I liked the game, it was very JRPG trope and lost out some of the cool things the first game had though.

Damn, I absolutely loved everything about the original on PS1.
Legend of Legaia OST 01 - World Map Theme.
Sadly I never got a PS2 so I didn't get to play the second one, even if it may not be as good, so I'm looking forward to this.

Always loved the first one as a kid. I barely played the 2nd one back then, but I think wouldn't mind tryin it out again. Let me just look up all the technique inputs again, haha.
But man, wtf Sony. How come the first one ain't on PSN Store yet? Damn, didn't even realize it either. Smh.

I almost beat this, then lost my memory card that had my save on it. Might give it another go, since I remember almost nothing about it.
The first one though? Played through that at least 3 times as a kid. Glad to see other people on here liked it as much since it isn't mentioned much (as well as someone mentioning Legend of Dragoon!)
Now I just have to agree with people asking for .hack. PLEASE!

Gimme that Shadow Hearts series.
I'll buy this, I bought physical a year ago just to round out my collection. My only complaint is having a character who spends a few hours doing nothing but defending. It's definitely not as good as the first, though.

I can't quote this enough. Especially since the retail versions are way too expensive.
That would be nice too.
The original was a great little gem.
I remember not particularly being impressed with the sequel's plot but the gameplay systems were a lot more refined, so I had my fun. Think I killed the last boss with a gambling card or something...
Anyway, it's a solid title. Keep those JRPGs coming, Sony.
