This is the most comfy JRPG
>Good core party
>No love triangle bullshit because the female leads don't bicker over Vyse
>Exploration elements
>Good OST
>Delphinus/Crew/Island customization
The only bad thing you can say about it is that the encounter rate is too high

I want to say they lost the source code or something?

I loved this game so much when i was younger
Why they thought Valkyria could be better than this, i have zero idea of understanding.
Brayden Wood
Did it even sell well?

did you play on Dreamcast? I hear the GameCube version lowered the encounter rate.
also, yes, this is one of the best games I've ever played
Chase Peterson
Even switch is powerful enough to emulate it.

Apparently the games had weak sales (based on a few interviews with devs/translators, wikipedia have the archived links), at least in the west. JRPGs aren't really that popular in this side of the world, especially a non-AAA project with minimal marketing budget originally sold on a console that died a few years after release.
Oliver Harris
I started this on my Dreamcast but kept putting it off, maybe I'll start it back up today.
Does this game work with VGA cables? Any tips for items/other stuff in game?

That's an extreme flaw. One that the gamecube version WOULD fix if the gamecube version didn't also have extremely awful music.
Dual Orb 2 is a likewise pretty alright game kicked right in the nuts by it's obscene random encounter rate.
Henry Cox
Random encounters are the worst element of any jrpg

Or that they hand out the moon crystals in the second half way too fast.

Why is this a thing I hear commonly about Sega? I get that storage was more expensive in the 90's, but I would have thought by the DC they would have better archiving methods.
>Panzer Dragoon 1 & 2 are being remade by a mobile dev
Why does this happen
Jace Adams
Square was also notorious for losing source code as well.
Xavier Edwards
Reminder the source code for the original Silent Hill games was all lost so they had to make those shitty HD remasters from the ground up.
Oliver Gonzalez
They said they were planning to port it after Shenmue.
Kayden Nguyen
Distribution was a nightmare. Back in the day, only a few non-sports games were sold. I only found one store that sold this, and was forced to overpay for it.
Brandon Rodriguez
The best bet right now is the Sega Ages line on Switch. Studio M2 put out that poll a while ago about which classic Sega games they should port to the system and while Skies of Arcadia itself got 10th place, Jet Set Radio got 1st, which means they're going to have to create working Dreamcast emulation/porting tools anyway.
Lincoln Williams
I was told gamecube version has shit audio quality or something. Should I play emulated dreamcast version instead?
Ethan Martin
The extra content and quality of life improvements of the Gamecube version make it better than the Dreamcast one. Can't the GC version be emulated with DC music files thrown in?
Blake Bell
I didn't play it when it was new, so playing it a few years ago I was let down after all the good stuff I've heard about it. It seems kinda basic. I still want a rerelease of it though, as I lost my save file and I saw potential of it becoming better as I went on.
