Player's Review
The story follows a mercenary named Erwin/Elvin who is trying to rescue a kidnapped village girl named Liana, but his chase eventually becomes an epic struggle for the fate of the world.
Langrisser II is a tactical role-playing game for the Sega Mega Drive console. It is the sequel to Warsong, and it was never released outside Japan. The music in Langrisser II was composed by Noriyuki Iwadare and Isao Mizoguchi.
Langrisser II was also remade for the Super Famicom by Masaya as Der Langrisser, which featured multiple paths through the game, less intelligent AI, simplified unit composition and simplified class promotion trees, and reworked graphics. A PC-FX port, Der Langrisser FX, was also released, featuring animated cut-scenes. It was later compiled with the first Langrisser for the PlayStation as Langrisser I&II, and then given a script edit and a new branch of the Imperial path in its final Saturn remake as Langrisser: Dramatic Edition. A Windows 98 release of the game was released in Japanese, Chinese and Korean; it features redrawn, high-resolution graphics, but a vastly trimmed-down soundtrack to fit the confines of a standard length CD.
The original Mega Drive version of Langrisser II had been translated by fangroups Hiryuu Honyaku and later, building on that group's work, NoPrgress. However, the final translation patch from March 21, 2001 still remained incomplete with the ending missing. In addition to that, the translation was considered unpolished and incorrect. Seven years later, on August 13, 2008 another translation effort started by D was finally finished and released by Mega Drive hacker M.I.J.E.T. This translation is much better, not counting a few suspicious-looking lines, and not counting the fact that the Zauberer class was named "Zarvera" for some reason.
In this longplay, I complete all side objectives, achieve 5th promotion classes for all characters and get the best endings for most characters. I also access and beat the fourth secret scenario during the playthrough, which required me to use the level select cheat to beat scenario 26 twice. A lot of remaining endings ( most likely all of them ), death scenes and some missed stuff were edited in at the end as well.
