Dude, Steam is barely15 y/o. I'd be very surprise if Valve survives 30 or 50 years. Very few companies last that much, specially companies that do not diversify and put all their in one hing (selling games).

Remember that at one point Atari was the absolute dominant force of the whole video game industry and they al but die in couple of years.

Of course not. That'd require effort or getting old staff members back to finish their work.

One of my favourite games of all time, the voice acting and art looks shitty compared to the beautiful sprites of the original but I could have forgiven all that if they just did the obvious thing and gave it online co-op, but they failed.

Or instead just remade Secret of Mana 2 considering it never got an official english release.

>>388349282
No because this is a rushed, low quality 3D remake. Just get classic Secret of Mana for less then 1/4 the price or the ROM for free.

Anon, do you know how much SNES games cost nowadays? Especially beloved ones like Secret of Mana? Or are you seriously suggesting he get the iOS version?
The only version of Secret of Mana available for purchase in North America that doesn't cost an arm and a leg and has a sensible control is the Original Wii Virtual Console version and if one doesn't have a Wii it's not gonna be less expensive than the PS4/Vita/Steam version.
You should have just suggested getting the rom

Not really. If you read up on how their model worked, you would know why.

replayed the snes version not long ago, that game had huge game design flaws. And it's not only the battle mechanics, the maps and difficulty curves is are bad. The story makes little sense, most character arcs being 2 or maybe 3 encounter in the whole game. The end is a rush job, plain and simple. orbs that used to rare become handled down like candies, item you loot suddenly double your stats and break the game, but who cares because what's left to do in the game is short as all shit.
if it werent for a completionist run and 2-3 hours of magi/leveling that serves no purpose because the last boss requires a the sword and one spell, this game would be extremely short.

yea theres a mod out for it.
