The gameplay in Unicorn Overlord has a staggering amount of depth and synergy within all of its systems. I haven't played a game like this since Ogre Battle 64 over 20 years ago and in many ways, this is even better. I explain why I feel that is in this video.

#ps1 #cozygames #cozygamingThe Most Replayable PS1 RPG | Star Ocean 2Gaming Broductions2024-02-06 | Hey everyone, this is a re-upload from a video we released at the end of 2023. Unfortunately the original got copyright claimed due to one of the songs, which is pretty annoying considering we got from it a supposed copyright free music channel and also because it checked out fine initially... but it is what it is lol. We have since replaced the song and on the bright side it allowed us to fix a couple errors that were present in the original. If you watched the original and are choosing to watch this again out of support, we thank you very much and greatly appreciate it! And for those of you watching for the first time, we of course hope you enjoy it as well.
Out of all the amazing RPGs on the PS1, Star Ocean: The Second Story is one that stands near the top. In this video we'll be taking a deep retrospective look back at the original PS1 classic and go into detail on what makes this title so special and popular with fans.

Thank you for sponsoring this video Wandering Sword!
As the years go by my free time tends to get smaller and smaller while JRPGs on average continue to get longer and longer. Back in the day everyone loved super long games but it seems like the sentiment has slowly shifted over the years. This video examines length in JRPGs and why more isn't always better.
