You mean this one.

I started playing Rom Saga 2 but there seems to be very little in game information on what exactly various skills do. Am I expected to either figure them out as I go along or should I use a guide to indicate which ones are useful?

What a weird fucking game. It's like they threw every weird idea they had in one pot. Nothing in this is conventional.
But different doesn't necessarily means good. This game doesn't even compare to the best jrpgs on the snes

It isn't even close.

Not even the best JRPG on the console.

Because a lot of Genesis JRPGs were early in the consoles life. Compare Final Fantasy IV to Romancing SaGa 3, both being Square games. Hell, for the Genesis you can just compare Streets of Rage 1 to 2 and you see a huge difference. Both consoles early JRPGs looked like slightly upgraded NES ones.

For me, it's this.

Tell me a little bit about this game. You play as an emperor and you expand your empire? That sounds cool on paper for a jrpg, but is it actually involving ?

Gameplay, music, art direction, lore, difficulty. It has everything

>Who? You mean the guy who did Legend of Legacy? Why would he be of note at all?
He was the director for several SaGa games starting with Romancing 2.
