    Eh, I often hear about the trademark renew but it means nothing. Skies of Arcadia is good but I don’t see a remake happening.

      Yeah, I mean it was a “good” game, but I don’t remember it being amazing or anything. Was this game a huge deal with people?

      Honestly, if they just used the IP to make an Open World game where you base build on your airship and upgrade/manage/craft stuff, I could see it being a hit these days.

        I think it’s famous because it was first released on Dreamcast, and than released once again on GameCube, where there is not many JRPGs. Besides, the game is expensive nowadays.

        Yeah exactly. I remember really liking it as a kid but never finished it. Grandia II was my jrpg of choice on Dreamcast. But I’d check out a modern open world take on the Skies of Arcadia IP.
