Reading about this game in the late 90s when the N64 was out, it had this insane allure and lore to it that other Nintendo games lacked outside of Zelda and maybe Pokemon. This game got me into emulation and retro gaming at a very young age and I'll always think back on it fondly.
I've heard good things about the remake and still find this to be one of the most accessible games in the RPG genre that I've ever played.
