Post forgotten RPG's that you find interesting/fun/nostalgic.General discussion I guess. No platform wars. If you instigate one, you will get newspaper swatted on the nose and put in the corner.
>retarded rec thread with zero effort from the OPStay on >>>/vrpg/ with all the other morons
>>11998002/vrpg/ has significantly better posts and smarter users than here. Where exactly do you get off pretending to not be a shit sucking fag-retard?
>>11997938Everyone remembers Bard’s Tale for its punishing mazes and endless grinding, but honestly? Dragon Wars is the better game and feels like the real follow-up. It takes the same foundation and actually evolves it.The skill system changes everything; suddenly you’re not just spamming fights, you’re solving problems by climbing, swimming, talking your way through situations. Exploration feels alive instead of being a wall of random encounters.The setting’s stronger too. Starting stripped of everything and dumped on an island prison is way more compelling than yet another “save the city” plot. Dilmun feels mythic, like you’re uncovering a lost world instead of trudging through a checklist of dungeons.Magic isn’t just “bigger fireballs” either. Multiple schools with different uses make it feel like a toolbox, not just damage scaling.It never got the recognition, but Dragon Wars outclasses the trilogy. If Bard’s Tale was raw potential, this was the moment that potential actually delivered.
>>11997938>>11998002>>11998008.....ANYWAY....Would any of these be playable on GOG or STEAM? I'm a lazy bastard.
>>11998203direct link just for you, lazybrohttps://www.gog.com/en/game/dragon_wars
>>11997938I only played the NES/FC version and I absolutely loved it. This game offers true freedom.From what I can tell it's a very faithful port and all the content is there, plus some extra content like some new items and access to a spell that only enemies could use in the original.The balancing is different than in the original though, in the og the max level is around 15 afaik but here I was 40-45 by the end game.The official English translation was cancelled and leaked at 80-85% completion, everyone onlines claims it's less than that though and that it's full of crashes. I only got a single crash in the end game and it was avoidable if you go through the area in another manner; and for the few areas that weren't translated I switched to the Japanese version (saves are compatible) and used AI translation. Also for some reasons in the leaked English proto the automap doesn't work properly in Mesen but works in FCEUX.One of the most impressive RPGs I've played on NES alongside Might&Magic
>>11998323>I only played the NES/FC version and I absolutely loved it.You should play the real version sometime. IIgs is the best.
>>11997938Loved this game on my 3DO. Would play it so much since it's just a randomized dungeon each time.
Castle of the Winds 1 & 2
To be forgotten first people have to know about them hehI only know bards tale out of the uh, five games mentioned in this thread
>>11999575Maybe you knew all of them and forgot
>>11998649I didn't like this game. Dungeon Hack was better.
>>11998008>significantly better posts and smarter users than hereThat's not really a high bar
>>11998002t. Got filtered out of /vrpg/ after posting a laughably retarded opinion, and now shitposts on /vr/ out of spite.
>>11998002Naw. I cruise /vr/ and /vrpg/ (and a bit of the CRPG General) exclusively underneath the Video Games section. That place is just as retarded. It's just slower, so it takes longer for the retards to say their stupid shit.
I am forgotten.
