For me also the best. The best game I ever played and I have taken it to my heart. Such a deep und georgeos story. Camelot was and is so underrated ...
@@zimstinka well Alex was being greedy for wanting limitless power and life. The wise one just gave him a slap of reality after Alex attacked him by a demonstration between the difference of power.
@@rafaelaguilar123 Nah, the wise one said he couldn't interfere with events, then he interfered with events... Did the same thing to Isaac with his doom dragon.
Golden Sun seriously deserves to be one of the best JRPG of all time. Well-built expansive world with deep lores and locations, great graphics of that time, full of secrets and great puzzles, and interesting battle system when every move should be considered carefully.
Very well said, we can see here how much magic flowed into these games. Golden Sun holds secrets words cannot bear, and I mean it. Be cautious, wanderer (above and beyond a sea of fog) ;) Golden sun purposefully is THE top 1 inspiration of my life and it is an omage I believe to the father of this sun, there is mystery in the Title, I know.
Golden Sun has the best 'Faith In Humanity Restored' energy ever. Timeless. I'll always remember the energy, adventure, and vibes from this game until I die.
I remenber when i was a child we dind,t have any tutorials in youtube ,nothing we discover all the things little by little and with our mean ,golden sun is my childhood I really love this game❤
Sorry for the late LATE answer, but I just finished the game, so... I acutally really liked how you didn't fight Alex because he was the mind behind the scenes, so his story arc finished behind the scenes
The story ends with Golden Sun 2 and it was well done, theres no need to make more Golden sun, maybe a visual upgrade on the new nintendo but thats it. the dont have to milk a game too much. but if you want fanservice games like Dark Dawn... well
I think it's worth noting that the "Why?" question is still unanswered after 20 years and a sequel game. Here's hoping for Golden Sun 4 to explain it...
I was gift GSII for my 9th or 10th birthday (I think so), and I could not even get to Lemuria... Then, I played it again some years later, and the satisfaction it gave me made it become my favourite game since the very moment I saw this epic ending scene!
Alex: I am all powerful! (tries to destroy Wise One). Wise One: Bitch, was that supposed to hurt? (throws Alex to the ground, lifts him, and ground pounds him) Grats, Alex. Defeated by a Rock with an eye. GG.
I think they turned it to spread the power upon all the main characters of the first two games, as they all show the same abilities. Even Kraden has got some power. I like that better than the ending explains here.
Isaac: It...it cant be Jenna: What is it? Isaac felix say something Felix: Vale...Mt Aleph, they are gone!! Garet: NOOOOOOOOOOOO MOMMY!! Jenna: guys....Vale is that way Isaac: oh yeah...right.....fuck BEST RPG EVER
You know, if the Wise One shit talked Alex after owning him using modern day shit talk, it would probably go something like this: 'Oh looky here at mister unlimited power. Break a few bones in his body and suddenly he's whining about how he can't climb down a mountain'
There is going to be a war for control of Weyard, and Alex is going to be leading that war. He wants to rule and he's going to hunt down Isaac and the golden sun teams for that little bit of power he's missing to have unlimited power and unlimited life, and Felix and Isaac are going to band together to stop him. That's what i think.
Oh, that's easy! Just go to the Mia's house in Imil (one with two old ppl) and get the empty bottle in the chest. Then beat the Mercury lighthouse, and the water of the lighthouse will flow again. Approach the fountain where old lady asks you if you want to drink and press a on the fountain. Then go to items and use the empty bottle on it. Now go back to the forest, get inside the Trent tree, fall down all the way from the top level and you'll see the tree spirit. Use water on him :D
@imonthedeadly60 And the Wise One should have explained : "If you survive, you may beat all the main chars in GS 3 with the awesome power you've just received" XD
I personally would like to see Alex be the main character for GS3. hell, I'd buy the game just to play the battle where he takes on the Wise One. Epic battle would be epic.
I totally agree with you about Alex should be Main Character for GS3 after GS Lost Age. This would make him the 1st Mercury Adept Main Character (instead of the usual Venus Adept for Main Character). And Alex in GS3 would carry the "mute" virus & not talk; whereas the recurring characters like Issac & Felix would be talking. My proposed 3rd party characters for GS3 back before GS Dark Dawn got released were the following: Mercury Adept: Alex (and he's Main Character with no talking) Mars Adept: Karst (where she returns via resurrection with sister Menardi) Jupiter Adept: Hama (Ivan's Sister) Venus Adept: Uzume (aka. Mayor of Izumo & the 1st Female Venus Adept) Of course in my proposed GS3, where the characters will meet their 1st Djinns (which back in GS1 & GS Lost Age, the 1st Djinn are usually a Venus Djinn Flint & Echo, both are talking Djinns) in my proposed GS3, the 1st Djinn is a Mercury Djinn & of course, that Mercury Djinn will be talking. And my proposed storyline in my version of GS3 would be "filling in the blanks" of mysteries left behind in GS1 & GS Lost Age (such as the Jupiter Adept City of Anemos, mentioned in GS Lost Age; but never went in depth). Unfortunately, when Nintendo DS replaces the GBA, combined with the release of GS Dark Dawn as the official GS3, the dream of having my own GS3 story release no longer came true... :(
By far one of the greatest RPGs ever made... and the most underrated. I want a Golden Sun DS to come out, but when I heard it featured you playing as Isaac's kid, I was turned off by the prospect of playing as another 17 year old kid. I mean, c'mon Camelot, your audience has grown up, so same should go for your games too. Also, I was hoping the next game would incorporate some of the same ideas as it's predecessors, but still be separate from it, like the final fantasy games...
At first I've played goldensun I thought alex would be in my team and will serve as my water adept but he got other things in his mind and found out he is obsessed to power
I'm pretty sure I cried the first time I saw Isaac reuniting with him Mom in the family hug part. I teared up again just now watching the whole reunion with everyone scene. Can't wait for GS3! There are supposed to be Psynergy portals that sap all Psynergetic power away from anyone who gets too close. Watching this scene makes me think that it's Alex at the center of Weyard messing around.
I have a question! So when the elemental stars were stolen, the Wise One gave Isaac the task of bringing them back or else. But the wise one also knew that the world would end if the 4 lighthouses were not lit? So Isaac had the same goal as Felix but the Wise One made them fight eachother for no reason?
I was also wondering why he made them fight their parents as a dragon. He also said that he can't interfere with humans, but he clearly contradicts himself by defeating Alex.
@@Dogsineed It probably applies to the people of Vale. The dragon was done as a way to test their strength and resolve. As for Alex, the Wise One wanted to prove to Alex he was not a god. As he had already predicted Alex's intentions and took precautionary measures to ensure he would not get what he truly desired i.e. god like power.
@XfishX and while we're at it, see the wise one speach?, "imbued the mars star with some of the power of the forming goldensun" this is why the other 8 adept age slower. Unlike them, Alex have NEARLY LIMITLESS LIFE (he could live almost forever) AND also have NEARLY LIMITILESS POWER (other adepts don'T have such advantage). If what you say is right, why would alex go to the trouble of climbing mt.alpeph if he could have standed at top of mars lighthouse? why?
I LOOOVE this game SOOO much xDD it's my favorite game ever ;D it's just so epic and cool >w< I spent much time playing this game and it really worth it but i wanted to play more so i was sad when i finished it .__.
Hmmm..... im like so behind! I have started both games over n over again but have never completed it! .... erm, dno if its the first or second one...but how on gods name dya save tret the tree and the people who have been turned into the tree? I have managed to get as far as finding mia and entering the lighthouse n i get onto that lady thing but i dno how to get the water
i hear you, the plot is good the skill/spell system is amazing and innovative with all the djinns thing and you get to use psynergy to solve puzzles and keep pushing ahead (and the exploration i love exploring the maps, gawd GOLDEN SUN WHY ARE YOU GONE COME BACK TO US WITH ISAAC FELIX AND THEIR PARTIES AND GENERAL AWESOMENESS) oh and lets not forget the mind reading xD
Here's a great thought I had: The city of Anemos was lifted into the sky. Sheba fell form the sky. Anyone else see this obvious thing? And In Izuno the two- Kushinada and what'shisname said hteir kid would come to save Felix's descendants.
I cried with this end... LOL I'm in love with GS 1 & 2 I ended at almost %100 (Because of the weaponds) Now I'm playing GS3 and I miss the same sound efect when you attack with the first Djinn of Issac... Dunno how to explain... I'm not so good with English xD
Still one of the best games I've ever played
One of the last true great jrpgs
For me it’s THE best
For me also the best. The best game I ever played and I have taken it to my heart. Such a deep und georgeos story. Camelot was and is so underrated ...
I must say it's also the best one in my book. Sadly is so hard to think about a renaissance of this saga 😔
"Lol get pranked" -the wise one
the music that made even the credits an epic journey, Motoi Sakuraba the god
And to think, the OST for the GS games was created by the composer for Dark Souls
@@SVD978 Also he compose music for the Tales saga
And this was developed in the LATE 90s, just goes to show how far he's come.
The Golden Sun Rises...
Or how Alex gets telekinetically body slammed into a mountain by an immortal, floating eye.
The wise one is god
@@omaricallegari3557 And a huge dick.

That was so funny and anticlimactic. I hated this ending
This game actually has the best videogame music I've ever heard.
Golden Sun seriously deserves to be one of the best JRPG of all time. Well-built expansive world with deep lores and locations, great graphics of that time, full of secrets and great puzzles, and interesting battle system when every move should be considered carefully.
Not to mention even the soundtrack is the GBA at it's absolute limit, and GBA has a limited capacity and compressor.
Releasing it only on one (and not super popular too) platform was a mistake.
It was one of the best jrpg I've played even now no one can top it.
Golden sun is not just a game it is a feeling! Best game i have ever played as young child. I still play it
Very well said, we can see here how much magic flowed into these games. Golden Sun holds secrets words cannot bear, and I mean it. Be cautious, wanderer (above and beyond a sea of fog) ;)
Golden sun purposefully is THE top 1 inspiration of my life and it is an omage I believe to the father of this sun, there is mystery in the Title, I know.
they should make an anime
Shit as a child I didnt cry. But Now yes
Golden Sun is life.
Totally agree! I just golden sun 2. And i will now love this game forever!!!
And i played 1 about a month ago.. it was awesome too!
Golden Sun is the best game series I've ever played and thats not an exageration
Alex thought he was too powerful. But he let the power go to his head and was toppled by his hubris.
He was very powerful but the wise one is pretty much god
This ending gives me chills every time I watch it. I need this series to return asap
Honestly, I'd prefer a remake over a sequel (Even if Dark Dawn ended with a cliffhanger).
I want both. A remaster of DD and a sequel for the switch.
Wow, I can't believe that the Takahashi Brothers are planning to make a Golden Sun 3! They interviewed them last octber 12, 2007!
Wow, I can't believe it's been 13 years since comments like this one were made, now there's no news about golden sun... :C
Oh god, that comment aged like SHIT
😞
They better plan GS 4
Golden Sun has the best 'Faith In Humanity Restored' energy ever. Timeless. I'll always remember the energy, adventure, and vibes from this game until I die.
Alex stop climbing mountains. You can teleport lol.
Can't argue with this logic. Unless he can only teleport to shit he's already been to.
@@SnowBoy1008 perhaps there is limits to his warp psynergy. Maybe not after getting the power from the golden sun
@@SnowBoy1008 lol he can only fast travel to places he been like an actual RPG game.
I remenber when i was a child we dind,t have any tutorials in youtube ,nothing we discover all the things little by little and with our mean ,golden sun is my childhood I really love this game❤
I was actually kind of dissapointed by the ending. I expecting Alex with the power of The Stone of Sages to be the final boss...
If there's ever a sequel, i bet that will be
@@BlaxeFrost-Xuhhhh… do you not know about Golden Sun Dark Dawn? The sequel literally came out years ago lmao
I meant a Sequel to that@@hrothgarnogar
Sorry for the late LATE answer, but I just finished the game, so...
I acutally really liked how you didn't fight Alex because he was the mind behind the scenes, so his story arc finished behind the scenes
Golden Sun 4 please? Come on Camelot, there is already enough Mario Sports games out there, how about a new Golden Sun for the 3DS?
Dark Dawn was fan service, the original story ends with GS2
Marcos Cruz Herran
Don't care! Dark Dawn has to many unanswered questions to end there, and liked it regardless of a few choices in the game.
Joe Green As i said , its a fan service game for the nintendo DS, don't expect to get answers.
Marcos Cruz Herran
They have had talks of a 4th game, but fan service or not, I still view it as part of the series and it deserves a sequel
The story ends with Golden Sun 2 and it was well done, theres no need to make more Golden sun, maybe a visual upgrade on the new nintendo but thats it. the dont have to milk a game too much. but if you want fanservice games like Dark Dawn... well
What would have been awesome is if Alex got all the power and he was the final boss
This song is so touching! It's like a moment of victory, sweet victory when you have lighted all the beacons at the end. Hooray for Isaac and Felix!
8:36 the best art ever done
Kinda crazy how I am here looking at these comments with beautiful concepts of how the storyline should progress. The nostalgia hits hard😩
I legit fucking cried when i saw Isaac, Felix, and kraden raise their arms up high then the music hit... it was finally over 😭
And after all the disdain they've been through, they were friends again.
I mean this song seems to say, that despite having saved the world, there were much more to explore and much more adventures to live.
I think it's worth noting that the "Why?" question is still unanswered after 20 years and a sequel game. Here's hoping for Golden Sun 4 to explain it...
Why didn’t Alex just teleport to the top of Mt. Aleph?
The homunculus from FMA, Alex... When will these guys learn Do. Not. Try. Too. Flex. On. God.
I was gift GSII for my 9th or 10th birthday (I think so), and I could not even get to Lemuria...
Then, I played it again some years later, and the satisfaction it gave me made it become my favourite game since the very moment I saw this epic ending scene!
Alex: I am all powerful! (tries to destroy Wise One).
Wise One: Bitch, was that supposed to hurt? (throws Alex to the ground, lifts him, and ground pounds him)
Grats, Alex. Defeated by a Rock with an eye. GG.
His psynergy was sealed, dude!
The Wise One said "...you may not survive".
Alex better be alive in the 3rd Golden Sun.
alex "I AM GOD! WOOOOOOOOO!"
wise one, "Ha no."
alex, "Wait wut?"
wise one, "i gave isaac the power."
alex, "FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF-"
He has a small portion but so does Felix he and Issac both have it
I think they turned it to spread the power upon all the main characters of the first two games, as they all show the same abilities. Even Kraden has got some power. I like that better than the ending explains here.
Only took me like 3 years to beat the game as a terrible 7 year old gamer but still a great game.
Isaac: It...it cant be
Jenna: What is it? Isaac felix say something
Felix: Vale...Mt Aleph, they are gone!!
Garet: NOOOOOOOOOOOO MOMMY!!
Jenna: guys....Vale is that way
Isaac: oh yeah...right.....fuck
BEST RPG EVER
You know, if the Wise One shit talked Alex after owning him using modern day shit talk, it would probably go something like this: 'Oh looky here at mister unlimited power. Break a few bones in his body and suddenly he's whining about how he can't climb down a mountain'
Oh look a video from 13 years ago in my reccommended because i watched 2 golden sun ost videos in a row
Thanks for the weird algorithm, youtube
There is going to be a war for control of Weyard, and Alex is going to be leading that war. He wants to rule and he's going to hunt down Isaac and the golden sun teams for that little bit of power he's missing to have unlimited power and unlimited life, and Felix and Isaac are going to band together to stop him.

I wish there was an anime or a movie out of this game
Alex for sure used something like "return" or "Turn-into-water" xD
All I can say is this game was a beast to beat. The ending is worth beating the game for.
Alex is my favorite bad guys in the serie Golden Sun.
Thierry Clément is the only real one.
And then Felix was executed for treason
No hes still alive
But Felix is the good guy...
But Felix is the true protagonist
@@lordgiles1841
Wut
what's the intro track of your videos? please tell me!
great stry and musics :D Realy good memories with this game. It's one of the greatest game of GBA withs pokemons
The lore was even better than I though
what's the name of the starting music?
he was on the mountain when it eroded, he must have died.
Climbing mt Aleph, can teleport.
In 2022 this is stilo the best game i ever played
the ending scene was so happy it made me cry T_T
i cried through the whole game when i was 10 it was so epic!
how come it has you save at the end when you can't load it?
As someone also named Blake, it was very immersive for me.
@imonthedeadly60 And the Wise One should have explained : "If you survive, you may beat all the main chars in GS 3 with the awesome power you've just received" XD
I personally would like to see Alex be the main character for GS3. hell, I'd buy the game just to play the battle where he takes on the Wise One. Epic battle would be epic.
now that im super late, nope. its basically some kind of party similar to the gs1 party in looks
WhiteBlock CC The world needs GS4.

alafoluwasogo1996 True.
I'd like to have him as the villain and final boss dude is like sephiroth
@Atstyle Dark Dawn works on a DS. According to other people, they haven't started making 3DS only games yet.

O cried with that end these days...
Sheba: aw poor baby.
Garet : MY FAMILY'S DEAD, WHAT SHOULD I DO! 😡
i knew that already. i said, " cant wait to SEE the adult versions of the characters we PLAYED as" as in meet them at some point in the game.
Yep, poor Alex, I love the endin' song ~ :o I need to hear it like every night b4 I go to bed XD!
Still the best credits in a Video Game, hands down!
EPIC!
Epic!!
The feel when you used a gba emulator that has a save and load feature so you don't ever need to save in-game..
FML I can't go back
what is the first song??
epic game btw
Was it stated in game?? I dont remember something like this...maybe he just ran out of PP?
It's been 18 years....
The way the Wise One absolutely bodies Alex on the ground is so satisfying
They make a manga? Or maybe, do you mean the manga that was published in Japan only and was about the intro arc of DD?(With Isaac...)
Golden Sun is one of the best handheld games ever made, they should continue it like they have with fire emblem and final fantasy
Are you saying that after you saw him as Arcanus??Just asking....but...are you??
I love that game, i hope see a remaster or something for PC
Why is this theme so good tho?!
have anybody notice that there is not a single GBA rom that works of Golden sun 2 and if anybody knows about a rom that works please tell me
Why not a manga of the two first ? :(
I'm pretty sure I cried the first time I saw Isaac reuniting with him Mom in the family hug part. I teared up again just now watching the whole reunion with everyone scene. Can't wait for GS3!

@smallwood plus Isaac will need a suitable rival since he too has a portion of golden sun, not as much as alex but still great
I LOOOVE this game SOOO much xDD
it's my favorite game ever ;D
it's just so epic and cool >w<
I spent much time playing this game and it really worth it
but i wanted to play more so i was sad when i finished it .__.
I heard a rumor that gs3 explains why theres a giant crater near that city on the west continent. something about a moon city
Hmmm..... im like so behind! I have started both games over n over again but have never completed it! .... erm, dno if its the first or second one...but how on gods name dya save tret the tree and the people who have been turned into the tree?

i hear you, the plot is good the skill/spell system is amazing and innovative with all the djinns thing and you get to use psynergy to solve puzzles and keep pushing ahead (and the exploration i love exploring the maps, gawd GOLDEN SUN WHY ARE YOU GONE COME BACK TO US WITH ISAAC FELIX AND THEIR PARTIES AND GENERAL AWESOMENESS) oh and lets not forget the mind reading xD
Ohoho. I love the part where Alex gets pwnt. I could watch that over and over...
Here's a great thought I had:
The city of Anemos was lifted into the sky.
Sheba fell form the sky.
Anyone else see this obvious thing?
And In Izuno the two- Kushinada and what'shisname said hteir kid would come to save Felix's descendants.
8:42 best moment in video games history!!
I cried with this end... LOL
I'm in love with GS 1 & 2 I ended at almost %100 (Because of the weaponds)
Now I'm playing GS3 and I miss the same sound efect when you attack with the first Djinn of Issac... Dunno how to explain... I'm not so good with English xD
THERE WILL BE A LIVE ACTION ❤
Where's the real golden sun 3 with Alex as the final boss who gains full power mid game
@Banim Maybe mount Aleph is absorbing his Psynergy and testing his physical strength ;-)
Apparently, It's supposed to be announced in the next Issue of Nintendo Power. (In July's Issue).
GOLDEN SUN COME BACK TO US, SCREW FINAL FANTASY, IT IS GOOD BUT YOU ARE THE GAME WE WANT!!!!
