It might be a bit expensive for what it actually is, but everything I've heard about the remake seems sound enough.
This post is important and everyone should read it.

Secret of Mana Remake gets 30/40 from Famitsu

That's what I heard :).
I think the way you can recruit Primm was maybe part of the choices you have to do to get a different ending.
Good news, I might still grab the PC version in a sale eventually then.
I don't expect a good reception for the game.
The remake is faithful to the original but it seems lazy as fuck.
Also, the gameplay aged very bad in comparison to other arpgs from SNES, like Terranigma or even Secret of Evermore, which by the way is better than SoM imho, both gameplay and content.

It's an interesting post but it's not like Japan has abandoned pixel art. Look at Octopath. Or even Mario Odyssey.
Odyssey, and the vast majority of jabs at pixel art in high-profile Japanese games, usually come from long-running series that look back over years and years of specific designs such as Super Mario Bros. sprites or Final Fantasy job sprites.
Octopath Traveler is a very rare and dangerous attempt at attempting to appeal to a love of old-style graphics directly, western-style, rather than something like the above or just a port of an older game. I'm personally excited, but I don't know if it'll work... anywhere, actually. That aside, the premise reminds me slightly of Unlimited Saga.

Secret of Mana with time travel elements would have been awesome. There's a dungeon where you randomly stumbles into the ruins of a subway with zombies and stuff. I wonder if the plan was to be able to see that lost city in the past, before the Mana war destroyed it.
