Having never played a Y’s game, decided to give this a try and was pleasantly surprised and hooked. It's simple yet pretty challenging and has a lot of conveniences like moving with the mouse, 'very easy' mode, pretty good placement of save points and simple gameplay to get into from the beginning. Sometimes there are JRPG's that are a little bit difficult to follow in terms of storyline, that's not the case with this and the music is top notch. The game also has replayability with the option of playing with different characters. If you've never played a Y’s game, start with this one.

Great game held back by the need to play it through 3 times to get full story. The only thing that changes between playthroughs gameplay-wise is your character. Characters are distinct enough, but running through the same dungeon 3 times is very tedious for me, I couldn't make it with the 3rd character. Other than that the game is really good, combat is very fast paced, boss battles are challenging but fun. Definitely worth at least 1 playthrough.

1st: Ys Experience
2nd: I Became bullet hell in Ys
3rd: I am Speed

Action-packed gameplay with great story, Ys origin gives you the unique option to choose between 2 playable characters (and a 3rd that unlocks after finishing game) which gives different view of the story. PC port is extremely solid with unlocked framerates. Overall a must play for any Ys fans!
I highly recommend playing with the Xbox 360 turbo preset controller which is the top ranking of Steam's community controller setup or else your fingers gonna get busted quickly using the default controls
