Rogue Galaxy is such an amazing game!

I remember this game being touted as "Play what you see with no load times!" I was impressed at the time of it..

Loved this game on PS2, did almost everything. Been playing on my PS4 since I got it on sale, the game still holds up to me.

I still long for Dark Cloud 3.

This game is part of my teenage years. This, Shadow Hearts and Kingdom Hearts are the only games that made me really sympathise with the characters. By the end of this, I was soooo rooting for each character to be fulfilled and I was sooo into it. I wish I would find similar games but more modern to give me the same feeling.

Man, you must have missed the Dark Cloud 2. The same developer made the game, with very great story. Try it. Its not yet late to fill in the half of your Teenage PS2 life. 😊

I remember reading the 5/5 review in Gamepro magazine and the graphics for the time absolutely blew my mind and I had to get it. I always thought of the story as a Saturday morning anime, so with that in mind it kept me intrigued until the end. To this day I consider it in my top 10 Jrpgs of all time

Nice review! This one has been stuck in my backlog for a long time and I look forward to the day I finally sit down with it.

I like the way you do your reviews, you tell what most gamers want to hear, plus you sold me on this game and the dark cloud games that's why I'm hitting the subscribe button, keep up the good work.

Yet again an awesome video. I loved the game back in the day. But honestly, you deserve so much more attention. I pretty much looked trough your whole Channel since i discovered it a few weeks ago. Such great taste in games and a great presentation - your videos are incredible enjoyable. Plus, you helped me to find some missing pieces for my own rpg collection, so thank you for that! Greetings from Germany :)

Easy 9/10 from me. Adore this developer. I might need a PS2 now for Radiata Stories and Valkyrie Profile 2.

The timing of this video is PERFECT with the re-release on PS4

Worked out being great timing for a Rogue Galaxy review with the PS4 release. Great game and another great review!

Good timing with this review since Rogue Galaxy is coming out on PS4 very soon. Nice finding your channel so I just subscribed.

amazing channel man. love the review

One of the BEST games hands down, such an achievement!!

Hey Derek, it's been a long time since I've commented on ANY of your videos! Been super busy with a lot of stuff in life, but when I saw that you uploaded a review on Rogue Galaxy, I HAD to check it out! I was never able to get far in Rogue Galaxy, but I would love to get a copy of Rogue Galaxy one of these days and do a playthrough eventually ^.^

My favorite rpg of the ps2. Even 15 years later when I’m still playing games like ff14, this is by far one of my favorite game ever

Bought this for my PS4, what I liked is the added achievements (don't know if the ps4 does this for all the ps2 games they put on there) adds a little more desire to do a lot of the side stuff, though I recommand a guide to do some of the side stuff, that factory...ugh But yeah I loved this game, I wish we could get a sequel or something in this universe, I could see a lot of potential, hell even an anime would have been awesome, hell it felt like an anime

also by the way on 8/8/2020 I got every PS4 achievement in the game. yes that includes the ghost ship, the leveling up the special star swords, the insect arena, and of course filling up everyone's slots Defientally was a fun trip LOL

I have this game, and have been meaning to actually play through it FOR YEARS but never got around to it. Loved your review for it, and maybe one of these days i'll actually play through it. It's a shame to hear that it's got pacing problems.

Your review is pretty spot on. Alot of my issues I had with this game were the story, pacing, and the fact a lot of enemies can k.o. your team right away if you're not careful. Still, I enjoyed it Rogue Galaxy! It was pretty fun to play. I consider it better then Dark Cloud 2. And even if Rogue Galaxy's story is bad or incoherent, I prefer it over Dark Cloud 2's really cheesy story!

Im surprised I never heard of this game as a teenager back then, playing it right now and liking it.

Hey Derek, have you played/heard of The Legend of Heroes jrpg series? The series as a whole is giant but it is branched off into different names and sub series. More particularly the Trails in the Sky games? The second game just got ported over by Xseed little over a month ago and could use more fans/love from the jrpg community. Anyways great review on Rogue Galaxy, a game I played when it was first released but it never grabbed and pulled me in so I never completed it sadly.

Love the cartoons and graph!

This is my favorite RPG ever, I love this game so much

I'm so tired of the pro new gen games. This is a welcomed joy. I am having fun!! Something newer games FORGET. I love the music too. Bought it for $7.49 for my ps4. Thank you for the review - very good. You have a beautiful voice to do these videos.

I have yet to play Rogue Galaxy, I know, shame on me. I loved playing the Dark Cloud games, so I'm certain that I would love giving this game a go as well. :) I loved the little sketches in this review, showing the relationship, or lack thereof, between characters. "Oh no! There's a sword through your chest!... Sucks to be you." :P Haha.

You're probably right, I never did throw much time into FFXII. :)

I think the emotion response it was trying to elicit was the same as in dark cloud 2, where in the death of a major character happened in Chapters 3, 5, and 7. The difference being in that Dark cloud 2 built up these characters the best they could before offing them. No matter how many times I play DC2, Master Crest's death will always manage to bring a tear to my eyes because you get to see the impact it has on the surrounding characters Lyn is crushed, and it shows. It also effects you, because you spent hours doing everything you can; Fighting bosses, time traveling, Fighting Gaspard and those goddamned Evil Flames. Hell, you have to sit through Monica's unskippable Spheda lecture. And then, as soon as you're ready to save the day and bring the legendary sage to glory, it's all ripped away from you in his final act of heroism. The way you describe it, Rogue Galaxy does the exact same thing, but crams it down within a couple of minutes.

oops, was a bit caught up with things and forgot to check KZread for your review. I loved those drawings, and was glad you gave Tomohito Nishiura a nod for his excellent compositions. I'm interested to see what you think of Morrowind, as the game seems to have something of a Marmite-like quality to it (you either love it or you hate it sort of thing).

Despite unseeing it's heavy star wars use in my 1st playthrough gunna give it another chance... PS2 is my favorite and every loves it, gunna try and stick through it till the end and get back to u bud

Dark Chronicle is a top game for me, so I should reeally check this one out some time. Thanks for sharing this. Looks amazing

It had quite a selection of voice cast All many who would later get awesome images

Ah, I love this game~ Also, in the time since this review, it has been rereleased digitally for PS4, with Trophy support to boot

I loved this game a lot

I remember buying this game for ps2, but playing it only once with me and my father. I somehow lost the game, and could not find it till this day. I have the poster though.

companies now have lost all respect for me but back then the games were much better. i feel like if ppl could get passed the old graphics and just try these out they would enjoy these games and see why gaming then was better. great content man you own a sub

you should review the shadow hearts series. those are some of my favorites for the ps2

God, I wish more games like Level 5s PS2 stuff were made or even still being made. They were all so damn good.

one of my favorites!

I’ve had this game for years. Maybe I should finally play it.

There might be others like Kingdom Hearts, DBZ games, YGOPRO, FNAF, Skyrim, and many others but Rouge Galaxy had a Special Place in me that I can't explain.
