    Visions of Mana Review - Modern Brilliance Mixed With Nostalgia

    I have always been a fan of traditional JRPGs and have particularly enjoyed the Mana series, including the recent release of Legend of Mana. So, when Visions of Mana was officially announced, I was eager to experience it. After playing the game, I can confidently say that it did not disappoint. This is one of the most enjoyable JRPGs I have played in recent years, staying true to a design rarely seen today, without trying to modernize it unnecessarily.

    Visions of Mana is the fifth main entry in the beloved Mana franchise. To express how long fans have waited for a new mainline title is difficult, but to put it into perspective, the last new Mana game was released on the PS2. While fans have had the chance to enjoy various spin-offs, remasters, and re-releases of earlier games, the release of an entirely new game set in the Mana universe is a major event-at least for me. The long wait has been worth it. While there are some design limitations, the technical aspects of the game are nearly flawless, making it one of the most enjoyable Mana games available on modern platforms.

    [...]

    Summary
    Visions of Mana masterfully captures the heart of traditional JRPGs with classic elements and stunning visual artistry. The main storyline and combat system shine with engaging characters and smooth gameplay, but the lack of meaningful side content and occasional performance issues hold it back from perfection.

    Score: 8/10
