Ys: Memories of Celceta Reviews
Ys: Memories of Celceta is a fast paced ARPG. Although it has been optimized into full HD resolution with 60fps, it will take some time for your eyes to get used to the new graphic vibe. If you're a long running fan of the Ys series, you can add another fun element of trying to find 'what has changed' from the 4th installment of the Ys title.

Time hasn’t been kind to some aspects of Ys: Memories of Celceta but a great combat system, now free of technical issues, combined with an amazing soundtrack brings this action RPG together into a great package once again all these years later.
Ys: Memories of Celceta remains the best that the incredible ARPG series has to offer. Although it hasn't changed much over the years, it's cool that those who missed it on PlayStation Vita can now enjoy it on PS4.
If you love anime or looking for a new RPG game to play or most importantly you miss experiencing action RPGs, YS: Memories of Celceta and its soothing music is waiting for you.

Ys: Memories of Celceta is a fine port, but there is plenty of room for improvement. Fans of the Ys series should enjoy it; all others should check out some videos beforehand.
In spite of an ending that leaves much to be desired, Ys: Memories of Celceta is a great action-RPG that re-contextualizes a decades-old franchise for a modern audience.
Ys: Memories of Celceta is a good game. This PS4 port just doesn’t do enough to make it stand out in the current market, however.
Ys: Memories of Celceta is not the best Niohn Falcom game, or even the best Ys game. However, it is a great remaster of an older game and a good entry for newcomers. Despite all its flaws, the entertaining story and the addictive, fast-paced combat system turn Memories of Celceta into a “memorable” experience

The action is great - it's shallow, but that's not a criticism when it's this smooth and enjoyable - but I just can't get past the lack of context.
Ys: Memories of Celceta can't quite compete with the heavyweights of the genre, mainly because of it's shallow story, but still offers enough entertainment through its gameplay to be considered a decent experience.

A perfectly serviceable if underwhelming remaster that brings the Vita game to the PS4. A fine RPG that will keep you entertained but it's definitely not the best the Ys series has to offer. A bit of a missed opportunity.
Although Ys: Memories of Celceta is not my favorite Ys game, it's certainly a very decent experience for action-rpg fans to enjoy. Getting into the game you can expect a full on fast paced 25-30 hour adventure, that honestly if you can get past the story you will never bored of it because of the battle system. Ys usually does certain things so good that you can try to ignore the shortcomings, with Memories of Celceta the overall experience is certainly very positive.
Ys: Memories of Celceta releases July 25, 2018, for Steam Users and you will be able to get right into the action with this new iteration of the game. Join other RPG players as they take to the forest and try to discover its secrets and restore Adol's lost memories.
Ys: Memories of Celceta is a good port on the PC, but weak visuals and a forgettable story hold it back.
Ys: Memories of Celceta doesn't shine quite as brightly as it did when it was a handheld exclusive, but it's perfect for fans of the Ys series and anyone looking to speed through a shorter JRPG
Although this is probably not the best version of the game (the PC one has better graphics and the original on Vita was portable), Memories of Celceta remains a fast paced action RPG good for all seasons.

The PC version of Ys: Memories of Celceta polishes the blazing fast combat, rocking music, and fun-to-explore environments of the original to a shine and is a must play for fans of the series.
While there are things that hold Ys: Memories of Celceta back, the main concepts are good. It won't take long to be interested in where the story is going and combat is a good mixture of mindless fun and tactical planning. It's unfortunate it feels rather floaty and weapons are weightless, along with characters moving at an unnerving speed but if you can overlook these shortcomings and the dated graphics, you'll likely have an action RPG you'll want to explore and complete.
Ys: Memories of Celceta features a thrilling combat system and wonderful score that will please anyone in search of a classic-style JRPG. Although its party AI is wonky at times, this Ys IV remake is a must-buy title for role-playing game fans.
There's no revolutionary story, gameplay, or graphics here, but Ys: Memories of Celceta is still super satisfying to play through.
