    Honestly, this series has the best remasters from SQUEX so far, specially frontier.

    But al the Romancing ones are pretty good too except for a few of the bosses havin this "cheap" flash animation to them, otherwise they're solid AF.

        honestly you can just do the originals, I'm sure they're fine, from what I know the remake has more dungeons + a new investment for your city.
        I wouldn't mind the artstyle of the remake if the backgrounds weren't so compressed, you can tell it's a mobile game right away and they were trying to reduce the download size

    The remasters not only keep everything intact, they add shit, fix bugs and restore cut content which is the most important part, you can't go wrong with them, they're the definitive versions of all of the games

    The remasters by far superior to even the original games in literally every way. They went above and beyond. The games even somehow look great in HD without straying away from the original pixel art, even better than the FF Pixel Remasters. It's a shame they didn't remaster the first game though because Square wants you to play that PS2 abomination of a remake that is Minstrel Song.

      Stop being contrarian, everyone prefers MS to the SNES original, it's what the original should have been all along instead of being an unfinished mess with several moronic and botched mechanics

    I started with the Minstrel Song remaster, currently on Frontier remaster and I plan on getting the rest of the games this summer sale along with the Mana games and other things.
    They all add content and you have the option of playing with or without it, also theyre just really good games all around, play them asap

    Do any of the games after SaGa 3 retain elements of the first three games?
    I started 1 and thought it wss really neat, but Romamcing doesn't sound like it has any similarities.

      The general spirit of full customizability and player freedom is still there, amplified even since from Romancing onwards the games become full fledged RPGs rather than simple linear dungeon crawls.
      If you want the signature elements of the classic GB trilogy, such as the sci-fi+fantasy world hopping, different races and such, then there's the first SaGa Frontier which is largely a spiritual successor of the GB trilogy mixed in with some Romancing elements.
      The only thing the series completely abandoned from SaGa 2 onwards are parties made of generic characters, everything else is just greatly elaborated upon, of course there's also the DS remakes of SaGa 2 and SaGa 3, which are kind of a Minstrel Song style remake and are considered their own entries.

        The remakes seemed interesting. I read that 3 went with a generic leveling system, but the remake cut it. I don't know if I'll bother playing GB 3 because of that.
        I'll definitely have to look into Frontier.

          Yeah, the remake of SaGa 3 turns it into a real SaGa game, but the nice part is that outside of fixing the leveling system and adding more stuff like combos, four techs per weapon and time travel, the rest of the game is left untouched, you still have all of the races, all of content is still there but with more stuff added and generally all around more depth to everything, and new music too.
          Same with the SaGa 2 remake, everything from the original version is still there but there's just a lot more to it.

    Minstrel Song is the best JRPG of all times but it's a remaster of a remake so I'd play RS 2, then RS 3, then SaGa Frontier, then Minstrel Song.
    It's literally impossible to get a reasonably priced SaGa Frontier 2 disc nowadays and I'd hold off for a remake.
    The GB games are very bare one and somewhat generic despite the eccentricities.
