Square Enix is back with another round of details for Romancing SaGa 2: Revenge of the Seven covering additional characters, the glimmer system, Mr. S Finder, and more. As usual, we also have a new batch of screenshots.<\/p>\n
Here’s the full rundown:<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Players can check which character classes can learn what techniques through the glimmer chart. Different character classes have different affinities for learning techniques. Any techniques that have not yet been learned appear as a string of question marks, while any techniques that cannot be learned due to the character class being unable to wield it are marked with an icon struck through with a diagonal line.<\/p>\n
Romancing SaGa 2: Revenge of the Seven introduces brand new spells and formations that were not present in the original game. Some examples include:<\/p>\n
Spells that have been learned via the glimmer system will be registered in the Incantations Lab, where they can then be
\ntaught to other characters with a high enough level in the appropriate spell school (element).<\/p>\n
Players can also develop powerful \u201csynthesized\u201d spells\u2014spells that combine two different elements\u2014by finding Old Books hidden in dungeons and the overworld.<\/p>\n
The Imperial University allows players to take imperial exams, testing their knowledge in a variety of different subjects.
\nPassing these exams can reward crafting materials and crowns (in-universe currency).<\/p>\n
Players can also visit the Imperial University\u2019s Odeum to listen to both the original and updated arrangements of the game\u2019s soundtrack.<\/p>\n
Once developed, the Avalon Gardens will encourage more tourism of the capital, increasing imperial revenue (signified
\nby the amount of crowns obtained from winning encounters). The gardens will grow more lush as more battles are won, increasing the amount of revenue as they do.<\/p>\n
This feature allows players to check the Empire\u2019s overall weapon and spell school levels. Overall standing will
\nincrease as long as weapons and spells are used in battle and their levels are raised. As the Empire\u2019s overall
\nstanding increases, the base level and strength of new retinue members recruitable from taverns also increases.
\nThe Imperial Standing screen also displays enemy strength, current imperial revenue, and overall battle records.<\/p>\n
The Imperial Chronicles allow players to see a record of all that they have done in the story thus far, as well
\nas next possible objectives (i.e. current and completed quests). Selecting a quest that is currently in progress
\nwill mark it on the world map and in the field, guiding the player where to go next.<\/p>\n
Mr. S is a familiar face to any SaGa fan, and he has a habit of turning up in all kinds of odd places all over the
\nworld, from towns to dungeons.<\/p>\n
Each time Mr. S is is found, he rewards the player with a sticker. Collecting stickers unlocks all sorts of benefits, such as increasing the amount of revenue gained after each victorious encounter, decreasing the amount of time it takes to build new facilities, or revealing the location of undiscovered treasure chests.<\/p>\n
One day, the small port town of Toba in South Longit is struck by a fierce storm that shows no sign of letting up. The storm has left the locals unable to fish. A diver from the town informs the Emperor that a pirate by the name of Garon was shipwrecked somewhere in the middle of the South Longit Sea after being attacked by Narwhal, Ruler of the Seas. Garon still haunts the region, and his ghost is suspected to be the cause of the storm.<\/p>\n
