The premise of Live A Live is that it allows you to experience a series of stories across multiple time periods. I want to dig into the reasons why, so strap in and join me for my reflection on my experience with this demo for a celebrated title that simply did not click with me. But if the demo is any indication of how I would feel about the game as a whole, then Live a Live is not a JRPG that speaks to me. I’m not sure if there’s something I don’t see simply because the SNES was just enough before my time that I don’t have nostalgia for this era, or perhaps because I didn’t play the entire game. So I decided I would download the demo and give it a try.Īssuming you read the title of this article, you already know what I thought about the demo. While I’m currently keeping my distance from Squeenix titles due to their heartily embracing NFTs, I couldn’t help but be curious about this supposedly incredible JRPG. This was apparently the case with Live A Live, a game I had never heard of when it was announced but for which I have seen nothing but unbridled enthusiasm. If you’re like me and not the kind of person hunting down fan-translations of these impactful games online, then there can be celebrated cult classics totally flying under your radar. This era, relatively early in the life of video games as we know them now, also featured a lot of titles that never made it to the west. Games like Chrono Trigger and Final Fantasy VI are genre defining titles, still considered some of the best games to ever be created. For a lot of JRPG fans who are a touch older than me, there is no more defining era on gaming than the Super Nintendo.
