This... somehow does not surprise me. Oh Kawazu, you devil. Hahaha. I remember visiting a friend in Japan and he showed me SaGa: Scarlet Grace for PS Vita (this was 2017). I was like "I don't think I really want to suffer right now" Unfortunately, I haven't made time to go back and try again. It's a little discouraging, to be honest. I could try to strip my human characters down and beef up my robots but I don't think that'll be the way to go. I'll just have to grind the monsters right before it. Fortunately, there's a healing spot right before the final room. I've also picked the WSC version of SaGa 1 back up. Defeated the brigand to the east and got the hero's shield. I know that I have to go now west for the armor but before then, I'm still beefing up my characters. I redid my party and I now have two humans, one esper, and one monster. I decided that, despite the financial costs, it'll be less annoying checking one esper's abilities instead of two. I really want to like SaGa. I like SaGa 2 and SaGa 3 (even if that one is a traditional RPG). Romancing SaGa Re:Universe is neat if not too grindy. I do like SaGa Frontier. But the series so far has demonstrated that you either play optimally or you are punished by way of extreme stat grinding. I can hardly be counted as a newcomer to the series but it's still the kind of thing that I go "this is neat" for the first few hours and then I go "oh God, why is this such a chore?" I'm used to baby RPGs like Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest, I suppose.

I’ve beaten Red’s scenario!! Finally! Well, all I did was do a bit of stat grinding in the final area. Also, I was wiser now that I knew that I get healed between battles so I was able to go all out and now save my strength so much like on my first two tries.
Since I’m playing the Switch remaster, I also unlocked Fuse’s scenario. I think I’d rather go through the others’ scenarios first. I’m not sure which to pick now, though. Maybe Emelia? Annie gained a bunch of stats with her travels with Red so hopefully it’ll carry over.

I just got notified that my copy shipped. Since it's coming from overseas, though, who knows how long it'll be before I get it...
