this game is one you will never forget if you play it. this game is one that you play through and you feel sad when it ends. that feeling, is the feeling of completing a masterpiece.
@freedomzwarrior I almost never reply to or initiate comments on youtube because it's almost certainly a waste of time, but I just wanted to let say that I have beaten these games more times than I'll ever know and you just nailed it. I am always upset when it's over, these are perfect games and the genre is all but disappearing.
I've never really thought about this song being a battle song since it's just played on the map, but it does have a very nice battle ring to it. Still, Shining Force 2 may be my favorite game of all time, still play it to this day.
Yeah, the two brothers who made Golden Sun also made Shining Force. The funny thing is, my favorite game of all time is Shining Force and my friends favorite game is Golden Sun and we each recommended our favorite game to each other. I also never knew that the same people made both games up until this previous summer.
I think you're wrong, pal. I knew that Camelot made Shining force III, not Shining force 2.
SF2 was made by 'Sonic Software Planning', the same who made Shining Force and Shining Force CD. SF3 was made by Camelot, who also made Golden Sun (heard rumors that it prototype name was Shining Sun...).
Well I read it in Nintendo Power in the Power Profiles section about the two brothers and their involvement in the Shining Forces series and the Golden Sun Series.
huh.... sonic software planning became camelot software planning after leaving sega sub branch... so they made SF2 and SF3 but not under the same company name
Unfortunately these games were made by Camelot, who split from Sega. Sega took the Shining Force rights from Camelot in the split, though.. which is why there are no more good Shining Force games after SF3. Sega have pretty much butchered the Shining Franchise.
epic game. the first was better though.

I would probably agree. Gotta throw final fantasy VI in there as well!
Shining Force 2 soundtrack is marvelous. I love it's modality, especially interesting considering such jazziness isn't often found in an rpg.
