And today, we take out first steps into a very unique installment. Putting all else aside, Unlimited SaGa tries to implement a pseudo-tabletop style gameplay experience. And (once you know how to interact with the game world properly,) it does a fairly good job of giving an interesting framework for this. However, on the other hand, much of its actual implementation is... Not so good. Primarily, how little agency you have in a lot of the outcomes of field events and overall character growth.

Should there be significant RNG arbitration in a game seeking to emulate diceroll-based events? Of course. But there's just a few too many overlapping between each other, here. Just a bit too much on every single front, where any one or two aspects relented would ease a lot of the pressure.

It's still interesting enough for one trip through, at least.
