Wild Arms | The First Wild Western RPG (Retrospective)

Out of all the settings in RPGs, one that you rarely ever see is the wild west setting. The series that is most known for this aesthetic is undoubtedly the Wild Arms series and it all started with this first game. In this video we take a deep dive, retrospective look back into this nearly 30 year old PlayStation classic and see just how well it holds up all these years later.

*I mistakenly call Breath of Fire III a 2D RPG near the end of the video. The sprites are obviously 2D but the environments are 3D. No idea what was going through my head when I wrote that part of the script lol. Sorry about that!
