To be played into the wee hours of the morning. March 5, 2004

The games of the past truly are marvelous accomplishments. They know nothing of the modernized games we have today, and their quality is more focused and mature. With the harness of gaming graphics pretty non-existent in Lunar, the game has more power and depth, and certainly more room to grow than recent titles do. With each passing moment, Lunar does not become old and boring, it just becomes more charming and impressive. Lunar is a game that only gets better in time.
Since Lunar is a relatively old game, it was free to run with a complicated story, rather than just display some appealing eye candy as you drag a character through another repetitive task. The fact that Lunar is so different than other games is what really drew me to it. Here you are, in a massive world, with a hole mess of party members, when you realize that you've just embarked on an unforgettable and hilarious adventure that you would be foolish to hope to find in any other game. Lunar's story is touching and it doesn't insult you with the old cliche's and stereotypes. Just when you think it's all over, you always seem to find another important task at hand. When you finally DO finish this game, your left with an indescribable feeling of accomplishment and you finally understand just why everyone loves this 'old-school' game so much.
Lunar's charm washes over you completely from the moment you insert that first disc. It's filled with characters that you just love to interact with. When your away from the battlefield you don't always find yourself worrying about what boss is next, sometimes you just want to talk to the townspeople and see what hilarious thing Ronfar or Ruby or ANY of your party members will say. It's great that there's an rpg out there that's not all 'business', Lunar is just plain FUN!!!
Lunar is a light-hearted, but DEAD serious game, and you can always appreciate what's going on. In one scene you'll be laughing your guts out, then the next second your back to business when something HUGE happens!!! The game is soo exciting, and it's just awesome to play it.
If there is a thing that Lunar lacks, it absolutely makes up with it tenfold with it's laughable dialog, interesting story, and massive amount of extra goodies. Lunar is a game that you'll love forever, and you'll never EVER regret playing it. So, if you haven't already experienced what a true rpg can be, don't waste another precious moment, PLAY LUNAR!!
Great no matter what! January 31, 2004
Whether your a long time resident, or a new-commer into the magical world of lunar, you have to admit that it was A LOT more than you expected! LUNAR may bea quite an old game, but that doesn't mean it's charm is in any way outdated. If you ask me this game just gets better with time.
I actually played this game before I played the first one--which is also an awesome game. You can play these games as a set, or idividualy, it makes no difference, you'll love em just the same!!^-^
I won't go into explaining the story, everyone else has already done that for me. You look at all the reviews this game gets and they're all either positive or they're negetive and nobody votes for them!! It's pretty obvious that this game is very crowd pleasing. And with all it's little quirks, it's just a pleasure to own it.
Anyways, I played this game like two years ago now, but i'm still not tired of it, and I don't think I will be any time soon!! Oh and by the way if anyone has information on the infamous "lunar 3" PLEASE PLEASE e-mail me, I'll really apprecieate it!!!~have fun!!! ^o^
 Old school charm with a few problems. January 7, 2004
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Yes, this is your typical old-school RPG with graphics reminscent of the 16 bit era and awesome anime cutscenes. This game doesn't have any fancy limit breaks and what-not, and despite a few problems, the game still manages to make you want to keep playing.GRAPHICS 7/10: Despite the dated graphics, the game's environments are still pretty detailed. The sprites of a few key characters don't really stand out as much as they should, and that sometimes leads you wandering around towns aimlessly looking for them to continue the story. The sprite animations however move very fluidly and have a unique charm to them. SOUND 6/10: The music is really nothing to get excited about. It matches the environments and the mood of the situations, but you'll never find yourself humming along. Another thing, the dialogue in this game is done by voice actors. However, this may or may not be a good thing. It sometimes sounds like the voice actors only recorded their lines once before moving on to their next lines. The dialogue can also get cheezy at times which leads to scenes that can be embarrasing just to watch. GAMEPLAY 8.5/10: This is where the game stands out most. Despite it being your typical turn-based RPG, the battles are very strategically oriented and they alway manages to keep you involved. Each of the characters in the battlefield are very distinct and have their own use in battle. Battles in this game are not random. Think along the lines of Earthbound or Chrono Cross. You see the enemy on the screen and they chase after you once they see you. If they touch your character, then you're off to battle. The only real problem is that the game is EXTREMELY linear compared to your typical RPG. On the first disc, there are absoloutely no side quests and you're just following along single paths in order to advance. DIFFICULTY 8/10: Like most RPG's, the enemies get tougher as you advance, and that will always keep you on your toes. Dungeons tend to drag on sometimes, and you'll constantly be making sure you carefully manage your resources for the boss at the end. However, the bosses usually aren't too difficult where you'll have to spend hours levelling up in order to stand a chance. A good strategy will usually prevail. STORY 8/10: The protaginist and his gang of rag-tag adventurers are off to save the world from a dark force bent on destroying it. The hero falls in love with the main female in the story and as you progress, you learn more about all the characters past and the tribulations they went through. Sound familiar? Other than that, the game has hundreds of interesting characters and a world with a rich history. Despite the cliche plot, it still manages to keep you interested and wondering what's going on. OVERALL 7.5/10: Anyone who yearns for the day of 16 bit RPG's will love this game. Anyone who's in for an involving game with a fascinating world and hundreds of characters will love this game. Anyone who's looking for something fresh might want to stay clear.
