SLjimbolian | I had much more fun playing SD3 than SoM, which the whole game was just confusing for me. | |||

I played it with Kevin as a main character, and then I picked Carlie and the black mage slut. Kevin is fun as hell to play, especially when he becomes a Bashkar or whatever it is ![]() |

Well, when I started playing it, it definitely felt "off" compared to Secret of Mana. But I stuck it out. And the game is short, so it's not hard to get far very quickly. But now I'm at the point where you have to kill the dragons, and the difficulty ramped up a lot, and you really need to level up to stand a chance. Enemies gang up on you and deal a lot of damage, so all my characters keep dying. So now I'm just grinding, and grinding is tedious, especially with gameplay that you weren't too fond of from the start. I didn't mind the game at first, but the further I got into it, the more it got to me. And I am a completionist, so I feel that I've come this far, I should see if I can finish it one of these days. |

The AI of your allies is pretty bad and switching characters becomes tiresome in that kind of battle style. There's something about the game that kept me playing and I thought it was a very good experience. Something has to be said about you thinking it's one of the worst games but somehow you are far into it. Either you are a completionist no matter what or SD3 has somehow sucked you in even while you hate it. ![]() What characters did you select? |

I pretty much think it's one of the worst games I've ever played. But because I made it so far, I still wanna finish it. Except that means I have to play it. |

camacazio | I haven't played 3. I'm still trying to beat 2, about half way through, but that game takes such a horribly large amount of leveling up and item use. | |||
Apr 5th, 2006 03:43 PM | ||||
timrpgland | I have and it was good. I have a tough time deciding between 3 & 4 though. | |||
Apr 5th, 2006 03:40 PM | ||||
camacazio | Yeah. But play Phantasy Star 4--gave me a HUGE rpg boner. | |||

![]() edit: And yeah, the Final Fantasy series only has about 2 or 3 really good games in it. |

camacazio | The final fantasy series in general isn't very good. It's 'the standard' but the more I started to play outside of it the more I realized that there's better stuff. | |||

timrpgland | I liked SD3 a lot. Better than SoM or SoE. I've only played it through once, however. Duran as the main character as a paladin, Lise as a Dragon Master and then Angela as a Magus . Ended up fighting the 2nd toughest boss (supposedly). That dragon thing. The music is awesome and the graphics were quite good. I just wish we got a real translatin but they did a good job with the translated rom from what I can tell. I liked the branching off classes the most. It had a decent difficulty but after a while the fighting got pretty boring. | |||

Wait, why hasn't anyone mentioned Seiken Densetsu 3? :< It's better than Evermore. :< |

Supafly345 | Secret of Evermore, I'm telling you. Similar gameplay only much more fun. | |||

Vampywampy | Is this Battletoads? :< | |||

I never liked Secret of Mana, but I don't remember it being hard. Go play battletoads and then tell us all about how hard rpgs are ;< Oh and FF4 was one of my favorite games growing up but I can't play any of the final fantasies anymore ;< they're just awful to me now ;< |

I'm playing Evermore right now, and I have to say it's shitloads better than Mana. The difficulty has been toned way down to the point where it's still kind of hard but it's actually possible to progress through the game without wanting to run the programmers over with your car. I don't think I could play it without savestates, though ;< Another thing I like about Evermore is the soundtrack. It's all cool and evil-sounding and stuff, unlike the semi-crappy music in SoM. The only thing I don't like is how my little guy runs like a tard and has an ugly ducktail ;< |

SoM is better when playing it with another person. ;< Seiken Densetsu 3 is awesome too, but I prefer SoM. |

FF4 was actually my first RPG ever, and it made me dislike the genre so much that I stayed away from it until Quest 64. I wouldn't hate the game so much if they didn't make the death scenes so fucking cheesy, and if Rosa didn't play into the "Olive Oyl" stereotype every second that she's on the screen. OH HELP ME CECIL I'M SICK WITH A FEVER AND I NEED YOU TO GET THE SANDRUBY FOR ME SO I CAN JOIN YOUR PARTY AS A HORRIBLY CRAPPY WHITE MAGE, OH CECIL I'VE BEEN KIDNAPPED AND AM BEING HELD AT THE TOP OF AN INCREDIBLY HIGH TOWER GUARDED BY AN UNSPEAKABLE AMOUNT OF ANNOYING CREATURES WITH WHOM FIGHTING BECOMES THE MOST FUCKING TEDIOUS THING IN ALL OF EXISTANCE AFTER 2 MINUTES, PLEASE SAVE ME SO WE CAN HAVE HARD SEX AFTER I HUMP YOUR LEG A MILLION TIMES IN FRONT OF ALL THE OTHER CHARACTERS BECAUSE I HAVE NO SHAME AT ALL, OH CECIL I JUST LOVE KISSING YOUR ASS, LET ME DO IT SOME MORE |
