Not Just a Bunch of Hippie Crap
You start your adventure playing as the young hunter, Vahn, who's determined to rid the world of an evil mist that brings death and madness to whatever it touches in Legaia. To return Legaia to normal and drive away the malignant mist, you must find and revive the seven life-giving Genesis Trees as well as destroy the three mist generators. Along the way, you'll team up with the wilderness girl, Noa, and the Biron monk, Gala, who'll help you save the trees and dispose of Legaia's permeating evil.
Peace, Love, and Death!
What separates Legaia from other RPGs is its Tactical Arts System of fighting, which is based on the same premise as battle systems in other fantasy adventure games--but instead of just clicking on the character you want to bust up, you actually choose where you want to hit them. For example, if you're fighting a Killer Bison, you can strike it with low, mid-range or high attacks. If you're fighting a floating Guardian, however, you'll win only if you strike it with mid-range to high attacks.
In addition to its innovative battle system, Legaia sports some of the best graphics, sound, and control around. Each character commands the screen in full polygonal splendor with dazzling detail. The control interface is also very intuitive and easy to get used to, while the sound booms from your speakers with an excellent soundtrack and kick-ass in-game effects.
Fighting and Tree-Hugging All in One Legend of Legaia is a well-crafted adventure that excellently weaves an epic story line and incredibly addicting gameplay with topnotch graphics, excellent control, and mood-inducing sounds and effects. If you're a fan of RPGs, you need to buy this game--today!
