I loved the Lufia series. And the DS is getting a remake of Lufia II: Rise of the Sinistrals. If anybody has the chance to play the series, then do it. But I'd recommend Lufia II over anything else. Anyway, I want to talk about this new remake for the DS.
I hate the fact that it's a completely different gameplay experience. It changed from RPG to action-RPG, and the story has been seriously changed. The characters have received really odd changes as well like for example Maxim, who now looks like a pimp more than a warrior. You only control a character to fight monsters as you progress through a dungeon, which really takes away the RPG sense it had before.
Even so, I'll give this game a chance...but darn, it won't feel just the same like the original. (It seems they removed Dr. Shaia for a playable spot while everyone else got permanent playable spots. Shame.)
Discuss, please.
Never even heard of Lufia...
Oh wow, Lufia. There is a name I haven't heard in quite a while.
