Demon Gaze and Demon Gaze 2 Would be great to port over to PC.
Seriously, they're the last ones of Experience Inc's catalog that have been brought to the west that we don't have on PC. Both games would do extremely well on the PC next to all the rest of them.

Yea I never understood why Demon Gaze didn't come to PC/Steam. If any of their games did, why not that one? It was probably their most popular release in the West. And now it's stuck on a dying/dead platform...

I hope it gets a steam release.

I enjoyed Demon gaze 1 on the vita, but by the end the combat kinda became samey. The game has issues where some classes have little reason to do anything but 1 or 2 moves over and over, IIRC the samurai was one such class. I never tried 2, does it have the same issue?

I really really liked Demon Gaze's hunt the boss mechanic though. It was a kind of way of randomizing a major part of the dungeons without losing the hand-made aspect of it.

Wiz-likes work in the way, that most characters do the same thing over and over. That's why you could just hold the button for the battle to be over in seconds.

The games are less about special battle performance, and more about equip and grind, traditionally speaking. And running away if necessary. Demon Gaze is fairly friendly, but if you ever touch something like Elminage Original or whatever, you'll quickly realize what I mean. I personally really prefer Experience stuff though, as their area design are so much better. Maybe it's acquired taste, but Demon Gaze made me really start to embrace D-Rpgs, though mostly thanks to the really neat dungeon designs and exploration. Operation Babel is also really good with that, that game has some REALLY great dungeons that I loved way too much.

Really wish Demon Gaze maybe came out 2-3 years later than it did when NISA were more curious to get into PC ports. I really wish NISA would consider porting Demon Gaze 1 and 2 to PC or maybe even offer to port it to Switch if that will sweeten the deal if it was possible at all. Now, I feel like it will never happen.

"but by the end the combat kinda became samey" perfectly describes every dungeon crawler ever. No idea why would anyone expect anything different.

As much as I would love to see Demon Gaze 1 or 2 come over to PC I highly doubt they would do it. The series is niche enough as is and I highly doubt the market for a port/remaster of it is in very high demand so I doubt NIS will consider it worth the time.
Still, a guy can dream right? :txcrying:
