[img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/44790790/87fa14d233d9e88d7557887036b93ae6746dc7c5.jpg[/img] [b]FORGE YOUR OWN TALE[/b] The latest standalone entry in the SaGa franchise, SaGa Emerald Beyond brings together the very best elements of the beloved series to offer each player their own unique gameplay experience. Choose from five sets of lead characters and weave your own tale through 17 different worlds. The full game is finally available today! To celebrate the launch of the game, the SaGa Emerald Beyond developers came together to answer some of the communities hottest question in an interview style Q&A. [b]Is there any connection between the characters and setting of SaGa Emerald Beyond and past SaGa games?[/b] Series mainstays such as Glimmers and United Attacks are still present in SaGa Emerald Beyond, but there’s no connection in terms of the story and setting. Having said that, there might be some places that hit a little harder if you’ve played a title from the SaGa series before. [b]Can you still enjoy SaGa Emerald Beyond without having played any other SaGa games?[/b] Yes - since there’s no connection to other titles in the series, you don’t need to have played any other SaGa games to enjoy Emerald Beyond. There’s a demo available as well, so in case you’re unsure about this type of game, you could to start by playing the demo first. [b]Which protagonist would you recommend for newcomers to the SaGa franchise, and which would you recommend for experts?[/b] Tsunanori Mido is fairly easy to get to grips with if you are new to all the different systems of SaGa. Whereas Bonnie and Formina might be more fun to play if you are already well versed in the series or after you’ve explored lots of different worlds with the other characters of SaGa Emerald Beyond, but if you like a challenge, of course there’s no problem with picking them first! [b]Do you have any tips for the battles?[/b] The trick to having a successful battle is to connect the combo range of each individual tech. In the beginning, just focus on trying to connect the green lines above all else. On top of that, it’s also important to try and disrupt enemy United Attacks. [b]What kind of play time should I expect?[/b] Starting with either of the 5 sets of protagonists, it takes a good few hours - around 10 - to reach your very first ending. Each of the lead characters has a vastly different story and we developed the game in a way that you will never experience exactly the same thing twice. The story and ending will be different for each player, each playthrough - so play time can basically be infinite! [b]Are you planning any DLC?[/b] We don’t have any plans for DLC - but rest assured, there’s already plenty of content in SaGa Emerald Beyond. With this we hope that you will be excited to dive into the divers worlds of SaGa Emerald Beyond. May your adventure be guided by the Emerald Wave!
