Phantasy Star Generation: 2 - Mother Brain & Ending
1I recently played and recorded Phantasy Star Generation: 1 (after also playing and recording Dragon Quest 2 and 3) and liked it enough to play through Generation: 2.
I used the same party throughout the game that I did for my Streamed playthrough of the original game of Phantasy Star 2, but considering the main reason to play Phantasy Star: Generation 2 is the second playthrough of it after having a Clear Save of both Generation:1 & 2, I didn't bother recording the whole thing (I did stream it on discord, however - and continue to stream most things I'm recording, so join if you think you'd like to).
I was underlevelled slightly for this fight, the most notable thing I was missing is Megiddo on Eusis and Lightning Whips on Amia (I didn't bother looking much into Crafting). Star Atomizers really triviliase this fight and just make it a case of chipping down her HP bit by bit, even without using cheese strats or being a bit higher levelled.
I liked both Generation games more than their original, although the lack of Reiko Kodama's art (R.I.P) is probably the biggest drawback of these remakes. They kind of look like hentai from the 00s at best, and flash games from the 00s at worst (especially Generation: 2).
The music of the originals is more iconic to me too.
I will record the full second playthrough, but it's just a case of when I upload stuff. I'll use a different party, and one better suited for the whole game.
This took me around 14 hours to upload, and most videos are at least 2x this length. Doesn't help that someone works from home so I can't really upload when they're working either.
