Although, not the best in the series this is a great game. I believe the developers were trying to relive the vibe from the first game. The graphics are good, the battle system is amazing, the story leaves a lot to be desired however. I imported this game from the US as I live in the UK. The first two games have been remastered, so I hope Grandia 3 gets the same treatment so more players can experience this great game.
It might not up to snuff with the first two games, but it is still a really good game. The presentation is excellent, the music by series mainstay Noriyuki Iwadare continues to impress, and the combat reaches a good balance in difficulty while still adding new elements that I think really do enhance the experience.
The aching point is the story and characters. While not terrible by any means, you can definitely tell the devs had to wrap things up with what time and budget they had left. So by about a quarter through the game, the story switches to an entirely different plotline that doesn't really add to the overall theme. But even if the characters are drier and less interesting than the first two games, they're still fun and memorable.
Grandia 3 is one of the last great JRPGs of the 6th Generation (the BEST generation of games). Yet aside from a quiet port to PSN on the PS3, this game has never been re-released. A remaster collection between it and Grandia Xtreme would be ideal. It deserves more love. <3

FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival.
Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed.
The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo.
As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity.
Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.Our Pick Top Trending Science fiction Sandbox
