@TheFinalfantasy10fan Super Mario Rpg drumline has similarities now that i think about it a lot of instruments used are similar oh yea "Yoko" She was a composer for the soundtrack and tons of other games
I think domina town theme and nostalgic song are great examples of traditional RPG theme, and moonlight city are great since it's so different than the traditional (and even modern times RPG), diddle's organ is great because it's on accordion ^^ and maker's gallop is something that would stuck in your head for years. I hope you're adding lots to your list, because this Mana has the best VGM!
lol I was a little 9-12 year old playing this game and I was trying to get through all the endings but It took too long lol and I did the dumbest thing ever by giving away this game....I want it so bad now lol
I'm glad I got my copy, in mint condition too.. I got it for like 5$ because at GameStop we didn't take PS1 games anymore 4 years ago and the guy didn't want that nor Castlevania Symphony of the Night and FF 7.. so he said name a price and didn't know the value.. we said.. 5$ each? He said sold. Wow.
This bring back memories when I was 20 (Year 2000) and going through problems with my then girlfriend. Square games like this always made me feel better.
I really wanted to love this game... the art style and music are so beautiful, but I just seem to remember playing for quite a while and never really finishing... the music still brings back good memories, though :)
It's hard to find any great games like this anymore....I don't think graphics make a game. The music and the story does...but this game still had some beautiful art.
I only played the game once (rented it) but I clipped all the art I could find out of magazines. I LOVED the style. Shinichi Kameoka has since become one of my favorite illustrators and influenced my own art career quite a bit. You're right, supawaffle, a games art direction is SO much more important than a powerful graphics engine.
I remember when my friend showed me this game a long time ago. I was fascinated by the battles and the soundtrack, but I didn't expect to remember the song! I really did!
I remember playing this game when I was 9 and I got stuck in that tower for a really long time ( I was 9 and stupid. xD ) with this song, and it's been my favorite track ever since. All the music in LoM is so beautiful.
I think almost this entire soundtrack could make the list. It's not that there are particular songs that are timeless, just that the game was aurical very beautiful.
This is one of the most under-rated games ever. Brilliant story , an almost insane level of customization and the replay value.
Hell , it took me 3 complete playthroughs to get an 800 damage dior sword (damn ash was tough to get). Now I'm replaying it for the ultimate equipment ....again (diorwood sword, adamantite armor and helm)
I apologize for my ignorance, but is Legend of Mana a good game? I've played Secret of Mana, Secret of Evermore and Seiken Densetsu 3 which all are great games (yeah I know Evermore isn't related to any of the other ones), but not Legend of Mana.
yea it's a great game, and it's very long..i haven't finished it either, but it's cool cause you can have co op on there too. the battle system is a bit different and unique, but it's worth a try if you get your hands on the game.
@darkmidna you'll either love it or hate it - the battles are really annoying, it's almost not even 2D, as you really have to shuffle to move up or down the screen, the experience spills out of enemies and you actually have to go pick it up, and the inventory and weapons system is fucked
listening to this after bout 10 years of not playing this game but playing both kingdom hearts games ive noticed alot of KH music got most of its flavor from this game...def a game worth owning
Actually, I think the person that made the music for this game also did KH if I'm not mistaken. I used to know his name but I can't quite remember now.
Sorry for replying so late, but that would actually be the song "Wanderer's Path". It's a completely different song. It also appears up for the Gato Cliffs.
Heh heh I guess I should start playing again. It's been a while but I never really used the 'chucks so I feel like making a new one. I'd always built so many swords and axes. Maybe my second time through I did lots of bow.
That gives me a fun idea for a video, but my 'lil homie doesn't have school, I'll have the PS2 and I can't do a 'bro like that.
Yea and this beat was in final fantasy tactics

Also, as if the music wasn't enough, the visuals for LOM were just splendid.
