"Royal Knights: Rebirth" has been on sale for half a month, and I haven't started writing a review yet. It’s just because I have too many memories and awesomeness about this game, I dare not write rashly, so as not to be too self-centered and mislead everyone.

Now almost everything you should play, and what you should abandon is also abandoned.

I will talk about my thoughts for my friends' reference.

1. The peak of war chess game

In 1990, " Flame Emblem ", which symbolizes the pioneer of modern Japanese war chess, was released. This type of chess and RPG, was derived from the chess and RPG, and was welcomed by SLG and RPG players with smooth storytelling and strategic battles, becoming a new type. Many Japanese factories were influenced by it and began to use this form to develop their own games.

At that time, Matsuno Yakihiko was still a young man in his twenties. He liked the Queen's band the most. Freddy Mockle's loud and loud singing always made him sink into his fantasy about war and peace.

So his chess game was named after the song of Queen Band : "Ogre Battle"! After the game was launched, Matsuno Yasuji traveled to Eastern Europe to find inspiration to meet his medieval wishes in Europe during high school. Unexpectedly, it happened to , Bosnia and Herzegovina War , and Matsuno had to be detained in Europe for several months. Witnessing the tragedy of Yugoslavia's disintegration and racial murder, the cruelty of the war greatly shocked Matsuno Yakihiko's heart.

After returning to Japan, Matsuno overturned the design that was originally used for the sequel to "Oga War", recreated a system that could better express the complexity of war, and wrote a deeper plot and richer character relationship.

"Oga War 2" released on SFC in 1995 designed a dark and sad world view, with as many as thirteen endings that do not meet the perfect definition in traditional games. No matter how hard the player works, it is difficult to achieve success.

This is war, not playing house. No one can be safe, and once he falls in, he will definitely lose something. After the launch of the game

, it received rave reviews, changing the mode and toy game software reviews at that time, allowing players to gain a more mature experience, and also faintly revealing the cruel side of the world.

games are extremely mature in terms of system, music and plot, and the cinematic mirror and dialogue are extremely smooth. I personally believe that in terms of gameplay and ideological nature, I surpassed my predecessors "Flame Emblem" and became one of the banners of that RPG golden age. The Japanese chess game still remains the mark of that time.

"Oga War 2" was translated as " Royal Knights 2" after it was introduced to China. It was also popular with a large number of players. Although it was still in Japanese at that time, the heavy atmosphere and exquisite design still captured our hearts. The game

was released on November 11, 2010 after the PSP remake, adding the "Wheel of Fate" system to the backtracking round.

November 11, 2022, after 12 years, it appeared again on Switch.

2, Change and Rebirth

27 years, the changes in "Royal Knights: Rebirth" are mainly aimed at the experience of modern game habits. The career training system of

game is the most attractive to players. Compared with the PSP version, this game cancels the professional level setting, but is unified into the character level, and the special attributes and skills of the character are more important.That is to say, after changing jobs, you don’t have to start practicing from level one, and directly inherit the previous profession level and obtain new skills. But players can't imagine browsing the level and suppressing NPCs. The overall legion level limits the upper limit of the character level.

All-member Magic Swordsman/Valkyrie routines are still applicable. Magicians have time to chant, but they are too slow and are easily caught. The way is to take drugs per person to fight hard. The freedom in this aspect of the game is commendable, and you can also try different ways of playing to pass the level. In terms of the plot,

, the plot is more immersive under the rendering of voice, and the complex plots and some heart-wrenching plots are more empathetic. There are no spoilers in this regard. The

picture is actually the 2D style of the year. Although it can be zoomed, it is the same image of a villain in every direction, which is incomparable to FFT's real 3D. I had been looking forward to SE to remake the tare with FFT before, but now it seems that the production team is still lazy. Yoshida Akihiko's character style is very fantasy, and the CG cutscene and portrait are more epic after the remake of the CG, and some characters like the Black Knight are more impressive.

Tarot card system is another feature. When you initially choose to be born, you can choose character attributes and guardian tarot cards, which actually doesn't have much effect. However, the role of tarot cards on the battlefield is very important. You can get card buffs by destroying trees, props, etc. There are four types of card BUFFs: attack enhancement, critical hit probability increase, skill trigger rate increase, blue return enhancement, and red DEBUFF clearing all skills. Each person can pick up up to 4 cards, which is very useful in the more difficult battles. After all, some bosses bring 4 cards when they appear, and they can't play at all.

battle round action is still the order determined by speed, and the lowest order can be seen. The "Wheel of Fate" is still preserved. You can go back to any round. It will take more time for those who pursue perfection. The TP value has been cancelled, and the skills and magic are activated with MP. Try to bring more medicine.

is different from remake and replica. This time the word "rebirth" is used very well. It seems to have changed, but it seems to have not changed. The game basically maintains its original appearance in terms of graphics and plot, and does not use SE's HD-2D engine, which is a replica of this aspect. But remakes of portraits, dubbing and new system elements are added to suit the habits of modern players, which is considered a remake of . So "rebirth" means a delicate stage between the two. Judging from the feedback, the player is basically satisfied. I don’t know if SE will “rebirth” more old games in the future.

3, Classics and Sentiments

The reason for playing games is the secretion of dopamine. Replaying old games seems to make us recall the happy moments of the past. But many times, I often feel disappointed when I replay. Because the pictures, plots, and systems that stimulate you were already familiar with, and the expectations were reduced, the brain would not open up more reward mechanisms, especially RPGs and plot games.

In my humble opinion, strategy games are more suitable for repeated play. Because you can use your wisdom to try different ways of playing in each battle, which is equivalent to playing a new scene. Coupled with different new elements and challenging designs, you can experience a new sense of accomplishment and satisfaction, which is also an aspect that Battle Chess is suitable for nostalgia. Like me, I have a poor memory and play it like a new game every time.

This time, SE optimizes the mouse very well. It is almost as convenient to operate on a PC and the host. You can choose a platform that suits you to experience.

From a modern perspective, the game screen is just a skit level, and it seems that it can be made with "S.RPG MAKER". But ignoring the picture, let us look at it from the perspective of a masterpiece, and we find that the core and system are comparable to the first-line masterpiece. Even the "Flame Emblem" that evolved to full 3D is probably far from the depth of the plot and the actual sense.This is the charm of the classic, and it has been shining for nearly thirty years. Even if Yasuki Matsuno, who is called "genius", can only make one of these works in his life.

article is a natural success, and I got it by myself.
