Roddick's childhood friend, and a member of the defense force. At first glance, he appears deeply thoughtful and reticent, but is. As has been noted, the game is relatively short, so it's probably not worth starting over. Star Ocean: First Departure R tells the story of Roddick, Millie and Dorne, self-appointed local village defence force and residents of the rather backwards planet of Roak which has found itself.

Fans of older RPGs and SO2 die-hards will probably have a ball, but those used to SO3, SO4, or other more recent ARPGs might be put off by SO1FD's relative simplicity (not that the combat is bad, per se). If you choose Ashlay in the beginning, this sets up more involved back story for 3 other characters, so I'd recommend Ashlay if you're interested in Ioshua, Mavelle and Erys. Granted, the combat is the main draw, but SO1FD's SO2-like battle system lacks some of the depth of latter-day SO titles. Not helping matters is the game's aggravating insistence on forcing the player to backtrack through previously-visited areas (although the new fast-forward feature should help to alleviate this issue). From what I recall, the story is lackluster, even by Star Ocean standards-there are very few (if any) intriguing twists or memorable setpieces (things that both SO2 and SO3 had, for better or worse) to liven up the rote A-to-Z journey, compelling character arcs are in short supply, and the game's antagonists are barely developed and/or have very little screentime/presence. Honestly, deep, interesting, and compelling are not the adjectives I'd use to describe SO1's story. For fans of old school JRPGs this is also a fun, nostalgic trip to the past and for fans of the Star Ocean series it is nice to be able to play the adapted first part of the series. Star Ocean: The First Departure R is not for everyone, but for newcomers who like a challenge and are not discouraged by the old gameplay and the high level of difficulty, this game is definitely recommended. Also the adventure itself with many side branches and interesting, sometimes humorous characters makes us curious about the other remakes that were released on the PS4.

Who can best cook, draw, make music or write and what can you use for your adventure. It's nice to experiment a bit with your Specialty's to create or upgrade the best weapons and equipment. Yet it is not disturbing if you calmly explore the planet Roak, save enough and enjoy all the possibilities that the game offers you to make yourself stronger. Cyuss is a better character, but Ashlay allows Roddick to learn his most powerful techniques (I prefer Ashlay for this reason, because even if I took Cyuss, I still wouldn't use him over my preferred team Roddick, Ilia, Millie, Mavelle). Back to your last save, which is hopefully not too long ago. You are not kept close to hand and game over is final. Star Ocean: The First Departure R certainly brings me back to a time when the JRPGs were a lot more challenging.
