>>2516376>The first drags too much and the translation is not the bestI don't know what you're on about, Fortress of Doom is the ONLY game in the series with a solid, consistently good translation. Well, also Ruins of Lore, but the story there sucked.
Lufia II's translation was abysmal and the story was awfully stupid, the only exception being the stuff already seen in Lufia I, but it does have the best dungeons and awesome gameplay. Graphics and music are great as well.
That said The Legend Returns is my personal favorite, the matrix battle system is just too fun. 9 characters IN THE SAME BATTLE, spiritual force flow, ancient texts, magic, 200F Ancient Cave, it's just amazing. I know the dungeons are random but I don't care too much about those, combat's where it's at for me. Plus it has the best music in the series in my opinion, which is amazing considering it's on the GBC. The translation work is abysmal once again ("frue" destruction etc, there's even a typo in the OPENING CINEMATIC ffs).
Ruins of Lore was a solid experiment but it's just too bland, and I just can't get past the Nomura beltan zippa animu redesigns in Curse of the Sinistrals, even if it has fun gameplay and the story is not profoundly idiotic anymore.
