Pollux Posted June 23, 2020 Report Share Posted June 23, 2020 Nice. I love the Ys series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanis Posted September 10, 2020 Report Share Posted September 10, 2020 I love this series, but...at that point? I'll just get it for the PS5. It'll be another case of 'getting the collector's edition of a game for a console that I don't have yet'. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
