Still, the major gameplay "fixes" allowed me to finally experience what SaGa Frontier 2 really has to offer -- easily the best story in a SaGa game, taking place over nearly a century.

Coupled with a stellar soundtrack that has a playful lilt to it, the overall mood of the game feels dreamlike, with maybe a dash of fairytale.

These excavation also have an inventory of their own so you can keep these items stored outside of your normal inventory which is super useful too.
