Ys Memoire: The Oath in Felghana - D1 Refined Edition Nintendo Switch

*Ys Memoire: The Oath in Felghana* on Switch is a thrilling action RPG! The fast-paced combat and epic boss fights kept me hooked, while the remastered visuals and stellar soundtrack (with switchable versions) shine. Adol’s voiced 10-15 hour adventure is engaging, though navigation can be vague. Turbo Mode is a nice touch, and the $30 physical edition with soundtrack CD is a steal. Highly recommend for JRPG fans!

If you want to play Oath in Felghana on your switch, this is it. I loved Oath in Felghana, and Ys Origins (also available for Switch! Cheap digitally, not too bad physically while supplies are still out there too), and my favorite Ys game ever is Ark of Napishtem which was on the same engine. I hope Napishtem comes to Switch soon too. Movement and combat in Oath of Felghana are constant and fluid. Magic is a fast-recovering resource that you're encouraged to use freely once you obtain it. Boss fights are challenging and always involved finding the patterns - the thinking in them reminds me of Mega Man boss fights as the series progressed in some ways, always some unique element to the fight to learn. Gameplay is mostly hack-and-slash between bosses, but the pace is very quick. You don't have to grind excessively, but you can choose to grind and there are convenient areas near healing save point statues seemingly made for it, a nod to the difficulty perhaps as minor improvements to stats can bring very large payoff in terms of reducing enemy and boss damage coming in and increasing your damage going out. The overall package was really cool here, too, with a gameplay manual that reminded me of the good old days before those mostly went away, and a nice soundtrack too, and some other goodies. Neat!

Great game and all the collectibles are cool

As someone who has played the PSP version back in safely, say this is a perfect rendition of that game, it moves a lot smoother than the original, and the quality has fastly improved, not to mention this one while having full English voice acting also has full Japanese voice acting, and there are better details so what you saw on a small PSP screen is fastly bigger and you see better details (for example I thought the first boss was a sort of gargoyle, and I’m half right it was a gargoyle, but I thought it was a ugly one not one that looked like an anguished maiden, which shows the details that were lost on the small PSP screen have vastly improved on the switch screen) Another thing is that the difficulties I have remained the same and so has the consistency so if you want to grind, you’re going to have to grind and if you wanna play on the hardest level, just beware you’re in for a challenge

New to the series but I really enjoyed this game. Its a brisk 15 hours and fun throughout. There are a few difficulty spikes but nothing a bit of grinding cant fix. The sound track is great and includes the original PC 88 and X68000 OST. Graphically its pretty dated but it ran smoothly throughout the game. The action is non stop and a lot of fun. Recommended.

I'm a newcomer to the Ys series, but liked the look of this one, so went out on a limb and bought it. HUGE WIN... this game is incredibly fun and the soundtrack is amazing. Then there's the value-added package. This isn't a collector's edition or anything... this is the baseline packaging. The included trinkets are cool, but the big win is the CD soundtrack it comes with. Hooked on Ys now, looking forward to more!!

They did a great job on this. I wish that the TG16 CD-ROM version was an unlockable though.

One of the Ys games i was missing. Love all the extras it comes with as well
