UnveilingYsMemoire:Beat Felghana's Oath

Ys Memoire: The Oath in Felghana, a revitalized entry in the acclaimed Ys series, arrives on PS5 and Nintendo Switch. This isn't just a port; it's a remake of Ys: The Oath in Felghana (itself a reimagining of the 1989 Ys III: Wanderers from Ys), offering a refined narrative and gameplay experience. The original side-scrolling adventure has been transformed into an action RPG with dynamic camera angles, enhancing the storytelling.

Completion Time for Ys Memoire: The Oath in Felghana

The length of your journey through Felghana depends on your playstyle and chosen difficulty. A typical first playthrough on normal difficulty, involving thorough exploration and combat, will likely take around 12 hours. This includes tackling numerous enemies and potentially multiple attempts on boss fights.

Optimizing for speed: Focusing solely on the main storyline, skipping side quests and minimizing combat encounters, can reduce playtime to under 10 hours. Conversely, exhaustive exploration and completion of all optional content could extend playtime considerably.

Content and Playtime Breakdown:

The game strikes a balance, offering a fulfilling narrative without excessive length. This contributes to its more accessible price point compared to AAA titles. While rushing through dialogue is possible, it's not recommended for a first playthrough, as it diminishes the enjoyment of the story.

The inclusion of optional content, primarily side quests, significantly impacts playtime. These quests, some appearing later in the game, often require revisiting earlier areas with newly acquired abilities, unlocking previously inaccessible sections. Completing all side quests adds roughly 3 hours, bringing the total to approximately 15 hours. Multiple difficulty levels and a New Game+ mode further extend the potential playtime to around 20 hours for completionists.
