Review

@Judgesurreal777: I've looked through the article, and it's generally good aside from grammar issues.

• Maybe expanding the third paragraph of the lead a little so it includes some development information.
• In the lead, it doesn't seem sensible to have "SaGa series" when it's already in the "Series" box. Trim it down to just "SaGa", and it should look better.
• The musical score for SaGa Frontier was composed and arranged by Kenji Ito, who provided music for many previous entries in the SaGa franchise. - This statement is uncited.
• Due to time constraints, some plot points of Asellus' story were removed. - Redundant link needs removing.
• the game contains different races that exist within the Regions: the Humans, the Mystics (similar to vampires), the Half-Mystics (half Human and half Mystic), the Monsters (shapeshifters) and the Mecs (robots). Some of the game's races are limited in this system. For example, Monsters cannot equip weapons, armor, or spells, while Mecs are capable of equipping parts from other Mecs to add more abilities. - This entire segment is uncited.
• The publication also criticized the game's graphics, but praised its length and gameplay. - Does this statement refer to Game Informer? It doesn't have an attached citation, and doesn't make any reference to the following statements related to RPGFan and RPGamer.
• Given its author, I'm a little dubious about the Hardcore Gamer 101 reference. I'd remove it, but it's your decision.

(The author is not listed, so I removed it. Is Hardcore Gamer 101 not a reliable source?)

• Refs 15 and 25 need their urls updated/archived.
• Ref 27 isn't a full citation. This needs fixing.
• External link is dead, needs archiving.

There's what I saw. When this is sorted, it should pass. --ProtoDrake (talk) 09:19, 1 June 2016 (UTC)

OK @ProtoDrake:, it is all set. There was no author listed in the hard-core gamer 101 reference so I removed the author name from the article, but I think the source is still reliable one as far as I know. Other than that, let me know if there's anything else. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 16:53, 1 June 2016 (UTC)

@Judgesurreal777: I can't see anything else obviously wrong with the article. HardCore 101 is accepted as a source in GAs, depending on the author. In general, it seems alright as a retrospective source, so I'll accept its inclution. I think this article can count as a Pass now. --ProtoDrake (talk) 17:05, 1 June 2016 (UTC)
