The new character artwork itself is really great, bringing a more detailed and lively style to the generally flat/simple style of the PSP version artwork. Otherwise, the game is mostly just like the PSP version, including the menus and UI. The most obvious one is the new portrait artwork for all the characters done by illustrator Katsumi Enami. Square Enix calls Star Ocean: First Departure R an HD Remaster, but it feels more like an upscaled port of the PSP version with only a few notable enhancements. This first entry's plotline keeps things fairly straightforward, though a few larger universe-building elements are also lightly introduced, some of which later are expanded upon in later Star Ocean games. On the way, the team will run into other characters on Roak with their own struggles, and depending on your decisions, they may join to help Roddick temporarily or stick around until the end. You ultimately learn that in order to save the people of Roak, you need to grab a blood sample from a demon found in the past, and you'll spend the lion's share of the game slowly approaching that goal. The storyline guiding the game forward is relatively simple. Just when things begin to seem hopeless, intergalactic travelers Ilia and Ronyx appear suddenly, and the group teams up to save a planet from imminent doom. Things start to take a turn for the worse when the populace begins to turn into stone.

On the underdeveloped planet Roak, friends Roddick, Millie, and Dorne protect their usually quiet hometown from monsters and bandits. Next up is Star Ocean: First Departure R, which is a remaster of the 2007 PSP remake of the original 1996 Star Ocean game. While the mobile game Star Ocean: Anamnesis closed its English client just last month and Star Ocean: Integrity and Faithlessness released in 2016 to mixed reviews at best, a few re-releases have recently been making their way to modern platforms. The Star Ocean franchise has been somewhat on rocky footing in the west over the last several years, but it has managed to persevere despite some setbacks.
