About Vagrant Story
Adventure into a world of unparalleled depth and danger with SquareSoft's Vagrant Story. In this sweeping dungeon-crawling epic you play as Ashley Riot, a young assassin and spy for the organization known as Riskbreakers. Your goal is to unravel a deep and twisted plot and come to terms with the recent death of your wife and child. If this sounds a bit too cerebral never fear. Your path to recapturing your sense of humanity hinges on the destruction of countless vicious monsters and the exploration of dark and dangerous dungeons. Vagrant Story is awash in gorgeous scenery and features designs from Yasumi Matsuno and Akihiko Yoshida, the acclaimed artists and creators behind Final Fantasy Tactics.

Replying to wrodarte
¿Y aun así lo recuerdas tan bien?

Nunca lo terminé, la verdad, se me quedó a medias entre trabajo y otras cosas... pero esas cuarenta horas que le metí valieron cada una.

It rewards patience in a way few games from that generation did, especially with how the combat ties into positioning and timing rather than just stats. The story stays cryptic on purpose and I think that's part of why it still gets discussed.

Yo igual, cripticidad total.

Prefiero mil veces perderme en Red Dead que en esos menús de forja interminables.

On ne compare même plus vraiment, on revote juste par réflexe à chaque duel je crois.

The atmosphere in that fortress is unlike anything else from that era, dense and quiet in a way that stuck with me for years. That said the menus for weapon forging nearly made me put the controller down more than once.

Exagerado.

Moi aussi la forge m'a presque fait lâcher l'affaire, mais l'ambiance de la forteresse m'a retenu pareil.

The combat system gets praised constantly but the actual friction comes from the weapon crafting grind, which stalls the pacing for anyone not obsessive about menus. Once you strip away the reputation it's a much smaller game than people claim.

Lo mismo pienso yo, este puesto no refleja nada real.

I borrowed this from a friend's older brother and had no idea what I was doing with the affinity system for the first few hours. Ended up staying at their place way past when I was supposed to leave just to see the next area.

Yo lo jugué solo, sin nadie más cerca (ni internet para guías en ese entonces).
