Radiata Stories is one of those games you don't expect a lot from - especially not in the early hours. 170+ recruitable characters! Stylized visuals! Cool, but brother, what's the substance? Turns out, the real Radiata stories are found in the play - something you won't find out until partway through the run. The absolute sucker punch of a plot also warrants a deep-dive, so here's a brief look at Radiata Stories PS2.

Radiata Stories is so stuffed with material, I ended up shelving segments about the 2 hours of cutscenes that were reworked/cut before launch, a bit about the manga, and other tertiary considerations, because the in-game material, the core experience itself, is the highlight of this video.
