I feel like this game is perfect in every way except for the game part. It is needlessly obtuse.
But the rest is just top-tier.

Idiot Hair - TV Tropes
Ahogenote Not to be confused with Eroge, or Ahegao, a similarly risqué concept. (literally idiot hair) refers to the noticeable slim forelock of hair that sticks straight up from a character's head. Originally a hairdresser term for …

Ramza from FFT and Marche from FFTA also have it

But from reading that tweet thread someone posted earlier, his hair looks normal in his "flashback".
Such a great game that does has some flaws but man... that story, the graphics and art style, the music. Just incredible. If the game had some QoL stuff such as faster saving and quick weapon switching it would be nigh perfect for me. I love Matsuno and the team that usually follows him into his various games so much.
I played a chunk of this a while back and definitely wanna give it another shot.
It's one of those rare PS1-era games where the real-time art direction and cut scenes still look good. I didn't realize they intentionally made it look like an American comic book, which when you think about it is perfect for the hardware at that time.

Oh man, I love, love love VS. Had to make something for the occasion
Fantastic. Sydney Losstarot is probably my favorite game villain. His waif like build doesn't stop him being menacing and I seem to recall there being a lot of fan art/fiction inspired by him online back in the day.
Still blows my mind that Square released vagrant story, ffix, chrono cross, legend of mana, and parasite eve 2 all within one year. That was truly square at their absolute zenith.
If Square made the game today under the same specs (pushing its current hardware to its limits) the internet would explode. Two super hot dudes? Both barely clothed? One a grieving widow? From Square? Promare fan fiction would pale in comparison
Both of their outfits would be censored in a patch after the manchildren complain—the same ones who decry censorship when minors' designs are desexualized, for added irony. See:
Never played it but always wanted to. This game is near the top of my "needs a remake/remaster" list. I need it. I hope it comes some day.
It holds up! Just remember, level up all weapon types from the beginning!
Will keep this in mind if I ever play the game sometime in the near future. Thanks : )
I used to enter save rooms just to listen to this on repeat. The way it starts as a whimsical happy tune, turns into some creepy atmospheric music then loops back, it's incredible.
Either Matsuno or Yoshida has an assless chaps kink
Honestly? The hair bothers me much much more. Like dude, give it a trim.
The antennae is the problem. Weirdly it seems like he doesn't always have it? So what drove him to let it grow like that? How did he grow it like that? I have so many questions.

I tried playing through VS on my Vita and got stuck almost immediately after the intro. The labyrinth-like setup of the game confused the hell out of me. Am I missing something in terms of how to play the game or is it just a walk through the rooms until you reach where you're supposed to go, cause I could never find where I was supposed to go.
I was 18. It's funny because I would have guessed this game came out several years earlier.
I wish such a filthy pirate with my mod-chipped PS1. Outside of the theft aspect, it kept me from giving proper attention to most games because I had a spindle of burned games to bounce around between.
If you've played any kind of Metroidvania, exploration is just like that. Open the map and just find rooms you haven't explored yet.
THERE'S A MAP?!???
Well...time to give this another shot.
why the playarts, but not the game remastered on pc? mah
this game deserves so much praise.
It is amazing almost in every aspect

O ja zeker!
It is not as extensive as you're used to in recent years. No overview of where certain items are located etc. But that only has advantages in my eyes, you may have to think a bit more. Each room / area has its own unique name and contributes to the lore.
Lmao, this
A Vagrant Story remake would need a Moogle randomly popping up in the screen to give the player tutorials and tips like in some of the FFs
