    If you love SRPGs as much as I do then you'll have an excellent time with Langrisser I & II. It's impressive how well both games have held up over the years and the fact that it has an option to make them accessible for genre newcomers is a great addition.

    While it gets a new look and offers a comfortable experience, Langrisser I & II also carries the burden of the original games. Some elements are poorly thought out, or taken from another era, and it also lacks surprises as well as difficulty. The soundtrack and the modern design would probably have deserved a little more effort. It's nevertheless saved by its gameplay that is quickly handled and manages to stand out from the competition. It's also a good opportunity to discover the Langrisser saga, one that many had missed.

    Langrisser I & II is a good compilation, a remastered designed with attention and respect for the historic franchise. If you like tactical JRPG genre, although strictly old school, you can't miss it.

    After decades, Langrisser I & IIare still a milestone of their genre and it is wonderful to be able to finally relive these games in HR, on modern gaming machines and without the need for emulation. Unfortunately, the restyle work of thetitles has been done lazily to say the least and this sinks the valueof the bundle, which for the loyalty of its audience (and its price)would have deserved much more love.

    Even if the new artwork lacks even a single iota of the originals’ charm, Langrisser I & II is still a very solid package for SRPG fans.

    Langrisser I & II lacks of personality, starting with its mobile-ish visuals. Once arduous, both are now really easy to finish since no enemy can compete with your squads. The oversimplification of the games make them close to those mobile titles, with short battles and where the brain is no longer requested.

    A remake handled in the best way! With options to switch between remastered and classic versions of the music and visuals at any time, beingA remake handled in the best way! With options to switch between remastered and classic versions of the music and visuals at any time, being able to enjoy the new music and artwork while having the function to have a peak at what the game was more similar to back in the 90s is very much appreciated.

    It's easy to recommend this game to anyone who likes strategy games, particularly Japanese ones with Anime art styles like Fire Emblem. The defining characteristic of the game is the many alternate story routes. The branching paths in the plot provide tons of replay value and give opportunities for characters to be developed in a variety of ways.

    Absolutely loved every second of both games. Adored the classic 90s Anime artwork, catchy & emotional music, over the top dramatic plot lines and memorable characters. If Langrisser III-V get the remake treatment as well, they will be a must-buy for me.    … Full Review »
