Live A Live - Part 10/10 - Nintendo Switch - ライブ・ア・ライブ ~ Oersted's Dominion

Live A Live (pronounced as you would "alive" both times) was originally a Super Famicom (SNES) game that was never released outside of Japan. This HD version updates the visuals, but otherwise doesn't change much from the original game.
When you start the game, you can select any of the seven chapters available. They all take place in different time eras, with different characters. Each chapter was designed by a different person. So every chapter is its own little story, with no relation to the others. As a result, they vary wildly in length, but they are usually 2-3 hours each. However, the battle system never changes, so ultimately the uniqueness of each chapter feels diminished, as you are reminded that they are indeed all part of the same game.
Still, the game is fun and features some pretty boping tunes. The battle theme in the Near Future chapter is one of my favorites! Most of the little stories are interesting and the game offers a nice twist at the end that I hadn't seen coming. The game was fairly easy as a whole, but some achievements are hard to complete or figure out without the use of a guide. I don't have much else to say about Live A Live, but it's definitely worth playing! Overall, I liked it quite a bit!
