This plays amazing on the Steam Deck. I'm a few hours in and having just as much fun with this version of the game as I did on my old trusty PSP. If Square Enix is reading this please release the rest of the Star Ocean games on Steam.

Wow uhhh....I did NOT expect to enjoy this game as much as I did. Despite not know anything about Star Ocean, this game is really fun and has a tight grip on me atm lol. To the 3 people that are reading this, if you like hidden gems or jrpgs in general, this is something I would highly recommend!

Got an infinite money by buying a stupidly expensive grape juice and selling it to the same bloke that sold it to me for double the price, repeatedly. Obliterated everyone on the highest difficulty by maxing one skill immediately and save scumming to craft an endgame sword early in the game. Making my character smarter by making him read his own book that he himself wrote. Craft an armor that makes you unkillable as long as you are alive and equipping a stat that gives you life steal, giving you permanent god mode. This is an RPG game where your goal is to break it as early as possible.
