Story:Valkyrie Profile 2: Silmeria is the second installment of the Valkyrie Profile series.
Taking place hundreds of years before the original game, the story revolves around two characters living the same body, named Silmeria and Alicia. Together, the two characters work to stop a catastrophe that could cause war between the people and the gods. The game received generally positive reviews, citing its similarity to the original Valkyrie Profile game and its beautiful graphics, but had a convoluted interface and a high degree of difficulty. The game went on to be re-released as a Square Enix "Ultimate Release".Show more

Valkyrie Profile 2: Silmeria has:
The best looking game ever
The greatest soundtrack of all time
The most unique battle system ever
And a game filled to the brim with lore
This game is timeless and there are so many small details that often get overlooked. This is a game for people who want to indulge in character management with combat that rivals even the most technical of action games with so many layers to it that it's hard to describe.
There really isn't another game like it, this game blends in both action and strategy perfectly with countless different playstyles available to keep it fresh.
The game isn't even long either but has plenty of replay value as there are a ton of characters to find and you can't get all of them on a single playthrough.
There's also a bonus dungeon which has a lot of content in it too.
All the characters have a ton of voice lines in battle and that's before we even talk about the story.
This game is both an artistic and mechanical masterpiece and absolutely must be preserved for future generations.
I only just started playing this game last month, but I really like the lighting and graphics in this game especially when you consider how old this game is. I also like the way the Skill system works although it can be tedious to have to constantly switch out equipment every-so-often. The combat is challenging especially against bosses because they can oftentimes KO your entire party in a single round so you could try to separate team members and have the boss attack multiple people from different locations. I regret getting into the Valkyrie Profile franchise so late even though I knew about the franchise for years. I want this game on GOG because although it's an old game I feel it is still worth a playthrough and would like to get more people into the franchise.
Not having a version of this game for the current generation was one of the biggest mistakes in gaming history!! Square Enix made a mistake by not bringing the same proposal from the PS2, they should have listened more to their old customers! This game made a lot of my friends like RPGs, mainly because of its battle system, it had all the charm and challenge of what could happen...
Back then Square Enix actually made good RPGs. Extremely underrated, very fun and unique type of combat and a serious story. This beautiful game, forgotten in history thanks to PS hoarding greed deserves a PC port.
I still have my PS2 CD of this. I never beat it but I used to play the hell out of this many years ago after buying it from a local GameStop which has since shut down. I would love to see it brought to GOG. I would buy it in a heartbeat and finally get the chance to play all the way through this time. :)

Kingdom Hearts IIKingdom Hearts II is an action role-playing game, and the primary entry to the series since the 2002 Disney Interactive and Square collaboration. The game's setting is a collection of various levels (referred to in-game as "worlds") that the player progresses through. As in the first game, it II allows the player to travel to locales from various Disney works, along with original worlds specifically created for the series.Action Fantasy
Kingdom HeartsThe premise of Kingdom Hearts is designed around traveling to a collection of levels that are both original designs, and based on various Disney stories, referred to in-game as "Worlds". The Worlds are populated by NPC's, based on relevant characters from the corresponding Disney story, for example, the World based on Disney's Alice in Wonderland features appearances by Alice, the White Rabbit, and the Queen of Hearts. Interacting with these characters forms part of gameplay, while combating the games enemies, the "Heartless" forms the other.
Successful completion of a World is accomplished by defeating a key foe, which is either the primary villain from the Disney story, a unique Heartless of particular strength, or a combination thereof. Each world has a key foe which must be defeated, although there are many mini-bosses, side quests and treasures to be found that contribute to character progression within the game, and give bonuses for their completion in the form of weapons, items, and bonus scenes.
The game uses an experience based progression system, with experience gained by defeating foes. Experience gained rises in relation to the strength of the foe, and is consistent for each enemy over the course of the game. Levels are gained with experience, and provide increases to stat attributes in strength, defence, magic, hit points, magic points and ability points, with a new, predetermined ability unlocked approximately every four levels. Enemies also drop a combination of four types of reward upon death, green orbs that replenish HP, blue, translucent bubbles that replenish MP, yellow diamonds that contribute funds to the in-game currency "Munny", and tiny chests that when picked up, add a item to the players inventory based on the foe defeated. Such items include those used to restore HP and MP, items to aid party members or synthesis materials which can be used to create weapons and armor.Action Fantasy Comedy
Lost OdysseyLost Odyssey is set in a world in which a "Magic-Industrial Revolution" is taking place. While magic energy existed in all living creatures beforehand, it suddenly became far more powerful thirty years before the beginning of the game. Because of this, it has affected society greatly, with devices called "Magic Engines" harnessing this power for lighting, automobiles, communication, and robots, among other uses. While previously only a select few could wield magic, many magicians gained the ability. However, such progress has also caused two nations to develop new and more powerful weapons of mass destruction. The kingdom of Gohtza and the Republic of Uhra (which recently converted from a monarchy). Uhra is building Grand Staff, a gigantic magic engine, while the heavily industrialized Gohtza actively pursues magic research of their own. A third nation, the Free Ocean State of Numara, remains isolated and neutral, though it is falling into disarray due to a general attempting to stage a coup d'etat. Uhra, at war with Khent, a nation of beastmen, sends its forces to the Highlands of Wohl for a decisive battle at the start of the game.Trending Open world
