They need to make a shining force for like the 3ds or somethin. If they just made a new game with the exact same graphics as the first 2 games, it'd kick more ass than any rpg out there.
I would say that this is a bad game if it was to be called shining force 4,but because it is not an official sequel to our beloved series,I say it's good game,I have fun playing both neo and exa,even do I would rather like classic S. Force,this spin offs are O.K. in my opinion.
This looks gross, I understand trying something different and all... but... this just looks like a big mess. I agree, I wouldn't call this Shining force either.
I'm a pretty big fan of the old shining force games. I wish they would make a game similar to the old ones, but with a lot more items and features, better graphics, but fundamentally the same type of gameplay.
You've definitely gotta try SF Final Conflict and SF Cd if you haven't yet. SF Final Conflict links 1 and 2 and reveals a lot about SF2. I haven't played SF3 yet either though.
there is one thing that i liked in both shining force 1 and 2 that others dont have.. the werewolf warriors.. number 1 zylo and number 2 gerhault .. no werewolf then not worth my attention..
It is just a butchering of the original premise. The SF series was taken away from the team who made the original games (up to SF3) and now they're pretty much just random RPGs with the Shining brand name stuck on, nothing to do with the original series whatsoever. Even if they make a strategy RPG, it's unlikely to be anything like the old games.
Shining was once my favourite series, so I have yet to forgive Sega for it. :/
To me, Shining force exa is better than all the other ones of this series, cause it doesn't have that crappy graphic in shining force 2. And I'm sooo jealous cause I wanted the characters to speak in japanese since I could understand them, but it just HAD to be english, only Cyrille's voice sounds good.
I like this games mainly because it has the best animated CG out of any Anime drawing base game. The costume change / Armor was the best I ever seen on any RPG games. I wished other RPG would fellow the costume change.
The best shining force is still the 2, i like the skill grinding in EXA but the story sucks and its always big mobs group spawning everywhere that get killed in 2 sec cuz you have good gear, no strategy at all. I really dont recommend it, go buy Champions or Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance 1&2 if you like this kind of game...
I'm still in love with Shining Force III for the Saturn. All the Shining Force games after that seem to completely ditch the original game play and feel from the first 3 games. I wonder why they even keep the name in that case.
I had to download the Sega CD one in rom format because I couldn't find a Sega CD to buy anywhere. Hope the PS2 one is decent, i'll try it soon. 1 and 2 are classics, i replay them both many times.
weren't the old shining force turn based games, i remeber them being really fun, why change it? the concept could still work, i recall the battles being quite entertaining and tatical, this just looks like another game with the same old shit. if its good why change i say, i thought that was shinging force sort of thing? oh well fuck it looks kinda shit now
Anonymous you are 100% correct as a huge shining force fan this game REALLY pisses me off, if you wanna make a shitty game don't ruin the shinig force franchise by using the name
Hey guys I been looking for new action rpg . Should I get this?
Yes I have played Tales of Symphonia , but i cant get it because of too much cursing . I ve already played Kingdom Hearts . so is this any good ?. Im just looking for a fun action rpg .
This game really wasn't worth $60. I mean sure it was a good game. But when you compare it to games like Tales of the Abyss (which was $32 I might add) it fails.
I suppose on it's own it was a pretty good game >.>
i have this game, but its the US release, i wish they included an option in the game where you can listen to the original Japanese voice-acting like in other games like Odin Sphere which is another good game by the way. I love this game, its challenging yet not too hard, redundant but fun, etc...
Yeah, more Shining! Keep'em'commin! Sadly thought it's another voices massacre in the US, release T_T.
I'm not asking for perfect voice acting, but could americans publishers at least try to get voices that fit with the original? When I played Shining Tears I was shocked at what happened to the girls' soft voices T_T
then why did u watch this in the first place?! i mean wtf? why would u watch a video about something you dont even like? if u dont like it then dont watch it!
I'd like to see a new game with Max, Khris, Mae, Hans, Luke, Diane, and the whole Shining Force gang....guess that's not gonna happen.

shining force tips:
recommended party: using your party as offense is a bad idea. your party is mainly use as support and defence. here are the best character to have:
faulklein: healer,but weak def.
avalon: turns enemies to stone (hero & worm)and has high hp and def.
garyu/adam: has big hp and big bodies, good as blocker and defence.
