that game (Vagrant Story) was excellant, I only wish they would follow up on it and do
a sequel ... it was one of the best video game stories ever told although it
had no voice over, only text. Combat was very good also and innovative
the game was definitely ahead of its time. I'd buy it or any follow up in a heart beat especially if "Square Enix" let the same guy (Yasumi Matsuno) who directed it head up the project, not to mention Akihiko Yoshida (character design). I could on and on with the talent that worked on that game. To say the least... it is one of my most treasured RPGs even to this day.
