Message: [QUOTE="MrChester, post: 196308, member: 291148"] Emerald Dragon is a game I'm definitely checking out. I heard about it a while ago and that info on the different versions is much appreciated. I get where you're coming from with the Mana series. The root of my issue with including here though is about conceit. I think - the Mana series - when looking at entries before and after Secret of Mana it becomes apparent that action was at the forefront of game design much more than RPG. They are taking a predominantly action formula and adding RPG elements on top of that. Parasite Eve, Crisis Core, etc., however, seems more like an attempt to add more action and agency into a traditionally turn-based combat system. What I mean to say is that I don't think SoM or the Mana series had much influence over this splinter of turn-based-ish RPGs [/QUOTE]
