Big heros, bigger dragons.
This RPG is just like the original, the storyline even holds a hefty parity with the first Lunar. Regardless, I believe they are both great games and nearly equal in their value. Lunar is a traditional turn-based battle RPG, and should probably be considered a relic for its story-line and overall game structure; dragons, hero's, swords, girls, and princesses. I mostly enjoyed this rpg for nostalgic reasons, it reminded me of so many older ones I played. Trying not to be to short, I gave this game a Hard difficulty rating because after you beat the initial game the journey continues, but whether your one level 99 or not, your level is reduced to around the 50's, and all the dungeons and adventures that ensue require at least a mid to high 60's
