OH JESUS GOD, I FUCKED UP AGAIN, I'M SORRY I HAD NEVER ACTUALLY PLAYED THE KING'S FIELD GAMES AT THE TIME, THEREFORE MY STATEMENT IS STILL NOT A CORRECT REPRESENTATION OF WHAT I WAS THINKING OF THE GAME WHILE PLAYING IT IN 1998. JESUS FUCK, NO. MY ENTIRE FLIPPANT, OFFHANDED REMARK HAS BEEN COMPROMISED FURTHER. I CAN ONLY OFFER MY LIFE AS PENANCE |

Bullshit. My uncle had Tomb Raider and Daggerfall on his computer when I was a kid, I played the shit out of Tomb Raider every single time we visited. Daggerfall was boring as fuck. I got far enough for that bitch princess to set me up with the witch cloak. Fuck her As for you, I SINCERELY apologize for taking your word as to what the actual equivalent land mass was. I should have downloaded the README file before tossing off a casual joke on the subject! Thank God people like you are here to correct less-intense players. |

See, you've never played the game. I purposefully said the game world was the size of Antarctica to see how many people knew their stuff (or at least how many people read the README file on the CD-ROM), and no one corrected me. The game world is not the size of Antarctica but rather the size of Great Britain. So stop criticizing a game you never played. I may be a massively negative fuckhole, but at least all my negativity comes from experience. |

I think the only well-designed area was the Ice Cave/Mountain place. And, since this thread has got me taking a trip back down memory lane and looking this shit up, I now know that all of the game's hardcore ubergeek fanboys despise the ice mountains because the area was too linear. I'm sorry, maybe you would have preferred yet another fucking area where you wandered aimlessly and bumped into things until you found a plot item. That would have made it better. |

And I agree, The cemetery / ruins was pretty tough to figure out. All those freaking orbs and charging them all a certain color to put them in all these random locked tombs. Ugh! |

Grislygus | what? the museum was easy as hell, the ruins/cemetary was the first place in the game to throw you for a loop | |

Oh, and if you find your way out of the museum area you get treated to a very nice CGI movie of you flying to the jungle continent on the back of a dragon. Theres a ton of detail put into this game. I'm surprised not many people have heard of it. It's definitely a must play for anyone who likes FPS RPGS. |

"shining sword of prism" or some shit, from what I can remember. The game keeps throwing super magical, clumsily-hidden weapons at you every five seconds. That way you might be able to forget that there are no real shops, that the stat-building is pathetically minimal, that LoL II completely sucks for the entire first half of the game, and if you hadn't played it a few times before your current session (this was before walkthroughs were available on the internet. You had to buy STRATEGY GUIDES) you were basically fucked |

Kitsunexus | BTW, why is your sword painted up for Gay Pride Day? | |

I have the oddest urge to take that hand cursor and pet that portrait's nose. No idea why. 0_o It looks a lot like that old PC game Realms Of The Haunting, but I don't think that was an RPG as much as it was an FPS. I wonder if I can find that CD... |

The memory of playing as Luther still annoys me. Player clicks on a rock and picks it up. LUTHER: "Oh." Player clicks on a picture. LUTHER: "Oh." Player clicks on the wall next to the picture LUTHER: "Oh." Players clicks the lock on the wall next to the picture, but misses and accidentally clicks the wall. LUTHER: "Oh." Player tries again and clicks the lock LUTHER: "Hmm." Player picks something up LUTHER: "Oh." Player opens a door LUTHER: "Oh." Player walks through the door and clicks on a table LUTHER: "Oh." Player tries to pick up an item on the table, but it's unclickable LUTHER: "Oh." Player clicks on the item next to it LUTHER: "Oh." Player clicks on the item next to that LUTHER: "Oh." Player clicks on a statue LUTHER: "Hmm." |

First game was better. And the first game was just a glorified Eye of The Beholder clone |

TheCoolinator | I'll check out dungeon master and see if your right. Westwood may have ripped off the idea. | |

Pentegarn | It just looks like a gussied up remake of Dungeon Master to me | |

Lands of Lore: Guardians of Destiny most underrated RPG in history Anyone ever play this game? It actually mixed live action with rendered sprites. Probably one of the most interesting RPG's ever created by WestWood before their demise. I heard the third game was terrible but at least the first and second one got good reviews. I love how the main character cracked a ton of jokes and the player could find little pieces of ancient knowledge in tablet form all over the place. I think my favorite parts in the second game were the jungle and the city of the ancients. |
