@@TheBeasty412 100% play this. Its insane the legend just passed, even the artwork in this video is him. This is actually considered one of the best RPGS/JRPGS ever made, its not stupidly long, its not grindy, its not baby easy but also not stupidly hard, and it has probably the best pacing in its genre. A lot of games in this genre can hit well over 50+ hours(80-100 honestly) but this wraps it up in about 20-30 and thats with doing lots of content. The pacing is fucking insanely good. Its entire party cast is so good that your biggest flaw with the game is that you cant use them all at the same time. This game wastes no time, but provides massive content. For a game that literally translates into a Time Cause(event,exist,situation etc..) it sure doesnt waste it. I recommend the steam version, or PS1 emulated version. This was also the first game in history to have New game Plus as an actual defined feature. Its actually astounding how well paced and designed this game is.

Example of what I hear when I listen to this song: Cry of the Ambushed Date In pain and ice the flow of a conduit is valid to pause, By starlight and reflecting off the deserts that miss the reigns, Like a salt flat that strides the skies in gait of a realm withstanding, Threshing the occult from the tapestry loomed in the weaving of promise.. Poetry is more than a science sometimes. It's a life to be performed for the world to witness. The Crutch of Power Dry melancholy floats the suspension of faith's reprieve to languish in folly, As apprehensive merits inherit blood like wine to drink from one's own bladder, In keeping defense to the strategy of appreciating the acceptance of passivity, For one is immune to ceasing to exist when the forests can scream your sighs.

I had the privilege of playing this when it first came out on the Super Nintendo me and my brothers we split our money paid over a hundred bucks. Just a masterpiece role playing game during the Golden age of video games always seem like there was one good RPG after another during that time but this one definitely sticks out. Almost 30 years later for myself for some reason the character of Shala sticks out to me , she epitomized true woman virtue, it's almost as Lavos just came for her, and this song just brings out those beautiful, tragic tears of lament. Truly sublime.

And if I did (on instagram probably) it's because I was right about my opinion - and this isn't the exception. 1- Lavos is just a parasite with no consciousness. 2- For a theme that sounds melancholic a lamenting, the word "sublime" surely sounds pretentious as fuck and stupid as well. Specially with that "truly" sprinkled along with it. 3- He mispelt her name. Fatal mistake. And I bet he doesn't even know her original Japanese name, 'Sarah.'
