The Other Worlds Shrine

Your place for discussion about RPGs, gaming, music, movies, anime, computers, sports, and any other stuff we care to talk about... 

  • I'm liking the GC's coming lineup, but goddamnit where are the RPGs, did they give up on RPGs after the SNES died or something?! Arg age old wine but damnit I had to say it.

  • Because playing them is not enough, we have to bitch about them daily, too. We had a Gameplay forum, but it got replaced by GameFAQs.

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Well, c'mon, they have that hot, hot RPG Lost Kingdoms! (sarcasm alert!). Seriously, they've only got a couple good ones coming, the FFCrystal Chronicles and Skies of Arcadia Deluxe...</div>

<div style='font: 11pt ; text-align: left; '>I have Skies of Arcadia sitting right in front of me, DC ver. I'm not sure if I want to get the GC version...although I might just cause it's an update and I never beat the original. And how far off is FFCC?!</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>I'm tempted to pick up the new Skies of Arcadia for the simple fact that they've reduced the random battle rate and upped experience gains. I can actually see myself playing the South Ocean portion of the game again...</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>I didn't know about that change, damn, now I can't WAIT for the game.

One thing I always hoped they'd do is add onto the Upper City of the Valuan Capital. Wealthy Cities are always my favorites in RPG's (such as Jidoor in FFIII), and I think that would be kind of fun.


Did I ever mention that Skies of Arcadia is my favorite RPG of all time? Well, I know I have, in every single post I've made since my purchase of the game when it was first released for Dreamcast, I thought I'd just remind everyone =P</div>

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>It took me like an hour, but then again I fought pretty much all the battles. The worst was when I forgot to hold the stick forward as I was exiting a battle and got blown backwards a few ship lengths...sigh</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>Of all the parts of the game, I remember fighting more battles in Ixa'Taka than any of the other places. It's the only part of the game where I felt there were too many, the rest I was relatively fine with. The Jungle city is fairly cool, but my favorite town is still Yafutoma's or Nasr's Capital cities.</div>
