Murdered?! SPOILER ALERT

[Incentive]

I don't remember Sara being murdered in the SMS and TG16 versions. haha. Am I remembering this wrong?

[Saralene]

No, Sara was not murdered in the TG16 version of the game, oddly enough. No idea about the SMS version. These versions of the game were handled by different companies than the original version and thus they did have changes that differed from the official canon.

[Saracchini (on Fire!)]

Sara dies in the SMS version after you get the first Ys book, if I do remember well.

Hi there, Sara.



...sorry, I just had to point that out.

Yes, Sara definitely is lost (to us) in the SMS version. I recall that in TG16 also, or perhaps they said she went on a trip. Anyway, I had played the SMS version first, so I expected that in the TG16. I always thought she would really come back somehow (ie not really dead), because just like many games from when we were kids, we spent a lot of time not really knowing what to do. So the actual time fighting, killing, and exploring meant that we had really interacted with Sara for a pretty long time such that we had thought she was a major character that would stay throughout the game, and always talking to her after doing something to see if she would give us a clue on where to go next.

I believe in the TG-16 version she leaves a note saying she went into hiding for fear of her life.

Yeah, I remember her leaving a note or something. DO NOT remember her being murdered. Haha.

Old thread, but I'm playing Ys IV - Dawn of Ys right now, and Sara is alive in it : http://i.imgur.com/eq9dAVH.png
I didn't understand at first because I beat Ys I last week so I was confused XD

Because Dawn of Ys was made by the same outsource company that made ports of Ys I, II and III for TurboGrafx.

Fun thing, that Dawn of Ys, despite being Outsource developed game, is the best version of Ys VI.

Funny thing, hat all four versions of Ys IV have different stories. Same cast of characters for the most part, yes, the Darkling Trio: Gadis, Bammi and Gruda, Karna, General Leo, Eldeel, Leeza... they appear in all versions of Ys IV. But stories are different. And Ys IV on SNES is the most close to the original concept of Falcom... Still i prefer Dawn of Ys ^_^
Well, now we have Memories of Celceta, which is the canon one.
