Star Ocean – Second Evolution ROM Description

Star Ocean: Second Story brings tri-Ace’s acclaimed sci-fi action RPG franchise to PSPs with sprawling content spanning multiple endings and over 80 hours of play. The acclaimed original unveils a galaxy-spanning journey fusing fantasy and sci-fi themes long before such premises were standardized.

The premise sees Claude C. Kenny, a cadet in Earth’s spacefaring federation, stranded on the medieval planet Expel after an accident strands him there. Mistaken by locals for a prophesized “Hero of Light” foretold to banish disasters wracking the land, he joins rising orphan Rena on a globe-trotting quest leading to the heavens and beyond eventually.

Fan-favorite mechanics like relationship-driven character endings and private action conversations expand an already content-rich experience. Building bonds between party members positively influences battles and determines which of 86 character resolution vignettes plays upon completing this 60+ hour main story. Choose Rena herself as the protagonist for an alternative tale as well.

Combat unfolds in real-time with full character control, adding welcome intensity compared to turn-based contemporaries. AI allies lend backup as you run about battlefields using menu-driven abilities tailored to melee, ranged and magic traits. Specialty systems enable crafting consumables via skill points earned post-battle too.

From small beginnings, Star Ocean 2 unveils its creative might through alien technologies, dimensional magic and eventual space opera until culminating against universe-imperiling antagonists. Download this sprawling classic to PSP via ROMsdl.NET and realize why devoted fans sing its praises decades later.
