I’ve had it in my backlog for ages and I’m probably going to play it on Babby Mode so I can just wander around and look at the art without much fuss, which will hopefully keep my playing time down.

Apparently the difficulty only changes how the notes are displayed. Expert mode means trying to play everything by ear, but you get a special ending. Standard probably works best.

Thank, I will do the standard and then watch the special ending on youtube
It’s an immaculately presented, perfectly clean-swept interpretation of Dark Souls into a minimalist roguelike structure. It’s fundamentally misguided but has some spectacular presentation and aesthetic control. If you’re ok with five dollars for a few tableaus you won’t forget, it’s worth it.

I remember thinking it was pretty good but I didn’t see it through. In my mind, with a pretty big gap since I’ve played it, I prefer it to Hades and appreciate the restraint.

I know the jump between Famicom Dragon Quest 1 and NES DRagon Warrior is pretty huge but are the sequels the same?
Nope.
The Famicom and NES Dragon Warrior games are the same after the first one.
There’s a little graphics jump between each sequel.
3 looks better than 2, 4 looks better than 3.
The biggest jump is between the Famicom and NES Dragon Warrior 1.

I think just having to menu stairs every time there are stairs is enough to make me quit immediately. But if I am gonna DQ I should do in the original.

DW3 is slightly rebalanced to be easier in the western version. also the graphics for both 2 and 3 are altered to remove weapons from some enemy sprites for some reason, and also the whole crucifix/coffin changes

You could always play the Switch version. It’s really ugly but it’s also like $3 if you catch it on sale.

It’s so hard to go back to the stairs thing. I played through 1 enough as a kid to not need to do that again, but yeah.

i ended up looking at a complete sprite sheet of enemies for 2 and noticed the stronger, recolored variations have their weapons.

I mean it got middling reviews at the time but also the most findable coverage was from what I think was a gamergate-aligned publication, so, grain of salt?

ahh that’s a shame, it seemingly can’t be had for less than $40 and I can’t get it digitally (no PAL release) even if it were cheaper

oh yeah, it’s definitely not worth that. pretty sure i paid less than £10 for it

bov mocked me for spending $20 on the game new. He was right.
Somehow this game has an online multiplayer mode, as if they were confident that it would have a community. From what I remember at launch idling in MP lobbies was the most effective way of getting performance stickers for the cargirls, which was otherwise a grind that far outpaced any content the game actually had.
