It looks like Isaac, Garret and Sheba have some unfinished business.

Eclipse and Atalanta are clearly shown as summons, so expect more making a comeback.

The developer team responsible is as of yet unknown.

TBA 2010.

    This can't be real. I refuse to believe it, my hopes will just be crushed!

    I don't think that's any of the original cast.

    But anyways I can't wait.

    I guess the lady friend doesn't really resemble Sheba, but if that's not Isaac I'll eat my hat.
    If you've finished the second game it's pretty obvious that the ending is ambiguous. Alex for one is supposedly still alive.

    I don't think they are original cast, the two in the front look way too young. Unless it's a prequel...

    I'd like to introduce you to something called Djinn.

    You may have heard of them.

    This is a day one purchase.

    Golden Sun: TLA was released in 2003.

    ...2003

    Is this a remake by chance?

    Also the fact that some weapons occasionally summoned FUCKING METEORS with no other input from the wielder.

    Been waiting for this for so long I really hope there is some connectivity with the old gba games.

    Sol Blade was so fucking awesome when it triggered. I'd equip all the +LCK and +Unleash gear just to watch it repeatedly.

    Beautiful, just beautiful.

    Day one purchase for me too.

    Nevertheless, I do hope it features primarily the cast of 1, which I thought was superior to the cast of 2.

    This was one of my major problems with GS 2. I just couldn't get into the cast at all. Another hope I have for this game is that the heroes aren't so spineless in the face of the villains demands.
    (Villain: We demand that super ancient staff you carry with you!!!!
    Hero: Okay, here you go!.)

    All in all, despite my complaining, still day one purchase.

    I hope Motoi Sakuraba will be on board again. The music was one of the many highlights for me. Venus Lighthouse, Mars Lighthouse, Jenna's Theme, the many boss themes. The guy is a genius.

    I played the first Golden Sun, but never got into the second one. Am I missing out?

    In other news, I was never aware that two games constitutes a legendary franchise.

    I only ditched them because out of boredom I grinded my characters in the original game to 65 before transfering meaning a 20 level gap.
    I also preferred the battle music.
    Looking back having the battle themes change based on your party configuration was an awesome feature

    Piers was way cooler than Mia due to actually having a personality.

    My Isaac team was similarly like 20 levels higher than Felix and the rest.

    Which made it slightly hard to believe that they needed Felixes help at all :V

    Edit: Piers is the only GS2 cast member I can see being superior to his counterpart. Except that mechanically he lacks Mias multi-heals.

    My team was: Issac, Piers, Jenna, Ivan.

    I could not be stopped in that Lobby area where you fight a ton of monsters in a row.

    That is until you run into TWO DULLAHANS IN A ROW!!!

    The first time I faced Dullahan I was swapping out characters left and right
    A pity you got the second group so late meaning there were few times you could incorporate that into your strategy. Low-level runs of Golden sun would've been so fun with it

    Oh man, the memories are coming back.

    I think Dullahan was the last boss I ever had to call in my older brother to beat for me.

    Seriously screw that guy.

    Yeah
    He also has a move that sets every djinn on every character currently fighting to recover. Meaning 7 turns until you recover your goddamn strength
