Never be surprised if they decide to Zelda-fy it and essentially have an all new game where similar characters are faced with the same dilemma as in the first two games, but as an original story.

I haven’t completed the third game yet but my cousin said that the third game, while it was good, it felt very lazy. A few years are okay, but when you near a decade, the original audience has grown older and likely moved on, losing interest. Update (31 August, 2016): Both GBA games are now available on Wii U VC and have been for a while. the villains were uninspired, I just kept hoping alex was actually not there yet or something. Nothing in Dark Dawn forced me to grind hours for another Tisiphone Edge or Lex Lachesis or made me hardreset till I got my wanted item from Sunshine…. Those seem like acceptable ratings, actually, but the game wasn’t received that well; the sales numbers should tell you that. !like the use of lucky medal , more forgable stuff ,wings of anemos and etc!

Alchemy has been restored to the world, and old villains return. They attempt to sneak into Morgal's castle through an underground labyrinth with Sveta's aid, but Blados, Chalis, and Arcanus reappear.

Unfortunately during my purchase o the game I didn’t have enough money on me at the time to buy the gameboy so I just bought the game and put it to the side.

Also, as I side note, I bought my GBA with my own money in grade 2, and I didn’t have allowance. I mean, it’s 30 years already but nothing grows in military-wise, I just wish someone could just create some tank with alchemy or even a sword with alchemic power,, or even create an enchanting system, where the player could put element to their weapon. i say to me that if they’re planning a sequel to dark dawn, they’re gonna have to have a complete overhaul of the gaming mechanics, storyline, glitches and bugs.
