OK, let's do this!

Star Ocean the Second Story was a game I loved as a teenager, and played to death. Sadly, as we had not much money, I played it on a used PSX using a very badly made bootleg (I think the print on one of the CDs was even slightly green, but it's been literally decades since then so I don't remember the details.) that I got for cheap in a video rental store.

The discs had been treated badly too, and where scratched enough the game tended to crash a lot. In the bonus dungeon near the end it got so bad I gave up.

But, time to finally finish this game for good! After a failed attempt at using my original (not the "original", those discs are long since dead) CDs for a German LP, I've decided to restart with the English-language European version and this time I'm determined to get through it!

Anyway, Star Ocean 2's beginning is rather slow, so this first video is roughly 1/2 half of the intro.

And I hosed up the audio balancing when recording, I try to do better next time.

SO2 hit me at the right time for me to love all the tedious insane grinding of a JRPG. A few years earlier I wouldn't have been organized enough mentally to play it like a robot, a few years later I had too many other things I wanted to do with my time to tolerate mashing hundreds of menu items thousands of times.

I don't think that is essential to SO2 but boy howdy it sure is how I played it.
