    Vestaria Saga is a merciless game. It can be wonky. Unpolished. Occasionally frustrating. But I know a particular subset of players won’t care, because this is a new, old, Fire Emblem, and nobody but Shouzo Kaga makes games like this anymore. Have fun with it, then, if you suspect you fall into that group. Enjoy this beautiful mess.

    It's a Kaga game alright! The story and characters are interesting, the gameplay is more limited than contemporary Fire Emblems, and theresIt's a Kaga game alright! The story and characters are interesting, the gameplay is more limited than contemporary Fire Emblems, and theres dumb BS in places. However Kaga has gained some leniency in his years, so it's not nearly as absurd as something like Thracia 776 and there are a lot of little QOL improvements. As someone who has nightmares of trying to prepare for Thracia's final battle, the ability to easily swap unit's map positions is a godsend. You can save every 5 turns for free, which gives battles an interesting natural ebb and flow as you take riskier actions soon after the 5th turn and slowly reduce the riskiness until you get to save again. Villagers are no longer useless, and usually tell you about any obtuse solutions Kaga has cooked up. The Unit Roster tells you all units that you can talk with, including enemies which helps with recruitment. There are still some Kaga moments though, like invisible enemies that can sextuple you and ignore defense, or Sigfried/Hilda/Lianka's recruitment, but theres nothing anywhere close to the level of Tearring's Ballistae or Thracia's fog of war/sleep staves/everything. A fun little game for only 20$.… Expand
