A story that changed the perspective of JRPG games.

the immensity and beauty of the landscapes together with a musical environment as deep as spiritual, a story rich in characters and a great variety of missions make the game an innumerable piece.

Some of the best memories about this game were the immense hours of fun and entertainment that it produced in my mind, at that time I think 2012, the situation in my country was very dense, not much less to understand that I lived in that moment. the Isla de Margarita, an island that was affected by the economic crisis that Venezuela was facing at that time

Being able to escape from the situation in my country through this video game was something magical, I remember the times I entered the Eryth Sea zone, just an excuse to listen to the music and enjoy a wonderful meditation, this is one of the most powerful features of this videogame, the interaction between music and the environment

In my particular case, the story was not the main reason why I was fascinated by this game, but I would like to consider that the story is captivating and surprising, we can see nuances of other rpg games but nothing to shock

Regarding the graphics, we could consider that they were not the best of their time, obviously due to the low capacity of the Wii, but despite these technical barriers, the Monolith Software team did the impossible to show the best landscapes, delightful from any type of player, with a color palette accompanied by music and interaction make an unforgettable experience

To end this experience

Finally, we could summarize that it was a wonderful story, full of unforgettable moments with a complex but enjoyable gameplay and a vast world full of splendid landscapes, with music that moves even the toughest. undoubtedly had everything to catapult himself into a total success, a legend and 13 years later a fabulous franchise.

The big problem

2010 when the Nintendo Wii was attacked by childish games and low power. The world was looking for highly prestigious western games and great graphic power, everyone wanted a GTA on Nintendo but really the focus of the Japanese giant was another.

fears for not believing

It was a time when the Japanese rpg had lost prestige due to the lack of innovation, big companies did not sell titles like before, and Nintendo never thought of releasing this title outside of Japan for fear of economic losses.

The secret weapon

It is believing in good stories, having the best professionals on your side, as is the case with MONOLITHSOFT, they were able to make the most of the wii hardware creating what could be one of the greatest games in history.

Why we love the game.
