The RPG Completion Quest: Part Deux

[Guitar Woman]

hey juttin you are a pretty clever guy you know that

[Juttin]

Nice avatar

[James]

Thanks.

[Juttin]

I agree

[James]

OK, fuck Super Hydlide.

Basically, I'm in a cave where I have to find 5 lights in order to continue onto the boss. Problem is, these lights only show up after you've walked over them.

There's essentially only two guides on the internet that provide help for this game, and NEITHER offers any info on the lights. Fuck, one doesn't even acknowledge they exist. So I'm basically running around a cave where I can only see one square ahead of me, getting attacked like crazy by enemies as I wander around a maze of corridors. In other words, it's a pain in the fucking ass.

I've found a few lights, but I can never remember where I found them when I have to reload my game on account of dying from enemy rape.

It really makes me wonder how video gaming survived with so much shit floating around out there. Honestly, the ratio between decent-to-great games and shitty games is a lot nicer now than it was 10+ years ago.


I GUESS it's possible to find the lights and then find the boss' lair on my own, but it's such a frustrating thing, I may just toss my hands up and tell this game to fuck itself.

I wanted to play LoD last night, so I did, and I got to the part where you fight the fake princess.

Anyways, I had her in the red, when she did 2 special "Rape" attacks back to back without a pause, and wiped out my whole party in one attack series. And that was the first time I've ever died in this game

I have been marching through the SNES Ogre Battle. Had to use some air in a can but I finally got the game to work. I just finished map 7. I don't remember ever beating this game. I think Ogre Battle 64 is better but this one is fun. It's been a while since I played a Ogre game though, does anyone remember how the alignment system works in this one?

[kahljorn]

it's a pretty gay alignment system. If you kill people weakerthan you your alignmentdrops,if you kill retreating enemies your alignment drops.Pretty much the opposite for raising it.

[timrpgland]

No wonder... My alignment and charisma of my main character is 0.. He slaughters too much but I'm not going to change that so oh well.

[Emu]

Have you played any of the Lufia games? I'm playing the second one right now and it's pretty good

[ArrowX]

Vanguard Bandits, awesome game, but I could never get past the one point where you escape from that guys castle in the desert and he sends is men after you, and you get helped by some dude in a dancing mech.

Also I've had Parasite Eve 2 for like 9 years but haven't actually beaten it. I get inside NeoArk and the game gets boring.

[Angryhydralisk]

The only RPG I wish I could beat right now is Star Ocean 2. The last boss re-defines the word HARD. Final Fantasy hasn't got shit on him.

Oh, but anywho, the RPGs I beat?

Final Fantasy 4
Final Fantasy 6
Final Fantasy 7
Final Fantasy 9
Final Fantasy Tactics
Chrono Trigger
Chrono Cross
Suikoden
Castlevania: SotN
Castlevania: HoD
Castlevania: AoS
Castlevania: CoD
Earthbound
Fire Emblem
Fire Emblem: Sacred Stones
Pokemon (Red, Blue, Yellow, Silver, & Gold)
Final Fantasy Legend 2
Final Fantasy Legend 3

[thebiggameover]

im about to beat Fire Emblem: Sacred Stones. want to beat it before i get a 360 on friday and never use my gba player again...

[timrpgland]

I beat FFXII last week. Very good game that unfortunately builds itself up for nothing.

[executioneer]

i'm getting close to beating might and magic 6 again

fuckin kreegan hive i gotta make like a million divine magic potiosn and i just don't have the yellow herbs

[ArrowX]

my list so far

FF3
Parasite Eve
Vanguard Bandits
FF7
FF9

and thats it

most RPG's aren't worth my time

[Esuohlim]

It's getting close to Earthbound time for me again. Hey ArrowX why don't you try Earthbound because I don't like a lot of RPGs myself and this game is awesome-o

[timrpgland]

Earthbound is so overrated guys (me 4-5 years ago).



That game has a strange history for me. I remember not liking it when it came out and beating down my friend's cousin for thinking it was cool. I only began to appreciate it when I played it again as a adult.... it's normally the opposite.


I'm working on NWN2 but I don't know, I just can't seem to get into it that much. At least not as much as the first one.

I want another KOTOR badly and DQIX was anounced for the DS. Can't wait.

[Esuohlim]

What turns me off about RPGs is that most of them have a medieval theme that I'm not too crazy about, what with armor, swords, magic, castles, and stuff. Earthbound is great because you're kids in the '90s going through actual cities with pizza shops and department stores and trying destroy aliens, creepy cults, possessed tents, and hieroglyphics.

[Lenor]

hahha.. I could quite possiably top that list by tripple amount of games ive played and beat.. but no need to show off.. haha..


anyways.. best RPG EVER .. FF7 ..

[ArrowX]

Earthbounds combat system is what turned me off, It was great up until I actualy fought something then, I thought to myself that "this is shit, I'm on a SNES here" I found out later that it was a Famicon game so I may try it again with that in mind.

[Pub Lover]

Esuohlim told me to play Earthbound, so I did, but I stopped when they turned into robots because Cybermen have always scared me.

Anyone played Dragon Quest VIII? When does this game stop being super easy & annoying?

[timrpgland]

Dragon Quest VIII is pretty much always easy although the added dungeon adds a little value. That game is more about length... If you think it's annoying though, I can't relate. Big fan of that game all the way through.



Trode is the man.
