DS #4334: Nostalgia (USA)

[NetShira]

Got the last copy for this first shipment from gamestop saturday, it's a very fun strategy/action game... feels a bit like a Tales game in some respects although battle is pretty limited at my low levels so far.
I also noticed an Atelier Annie nearing release also.

Yeah, I just saw that too, I actually held off playing the Japanese version. I never do that!

I am about to boot this up after I kill some people in another game. Kept me interested this morning til I had to go to school.

Quite disappointing to walk into "London" at the start and have a woman ask if I thought she should go on "vacation."

Yeah, saw that too. It's a pity, they could've used all those nice British words instead of the Americanisms...

 

[Fabis94]

Ehh, i hate RPG's and that really sucks since DS get's tons of RPG's :/

If i would be into RPG's i would be so happy

 

[Bloodspoiler]

awesome....does this play similar to Suikoden DS?..where the characters actually HIT the enemies??...

Yes it does, and it is lovely! Though Suikoden is more mystic. It uses quite the same battle system, though here you battle in order instead of rounds.
I've spent over 140 hours on my Suikoden save file, just cuz the battle with the sandcreatures is so hard, storming the palace.

Feels a whole lot like the DS version of FFIII, which, of course, is no surprise, considering it's made by Matrix. It's a tight RPG, but it's certainly nothing special. Gotta give them mad props, though, for presentation. Game looks gorgeous on DS.

Out of curiousity, what is the British version of vacation?

Holiday, I thought a Canadian would have known that

You know, as in, Mr. Bean's Holiday.

Haha, I'm a little disappointed with myself too; I spell colour with a 'u' and everything. The only alternative I could think of at the time was going "on leave" but I didn't really think that was the right answer.

A Great Game!

Reminds me of Studio Ghibli... Laputa, etc...

 

[MG4M3R]

The lack of dubbing disturbs me =.=

Someone know if the Japanese version is dubbed? I could simply change the audio files.

Omw to fix the flight core.

Im liking the game... sadly, the random encounters without any warning isn't something that I really like much.

Without warning? I've played very few rpgs that gave some type of warning when a RANDOM encounter would happen.

Explains what random is doesnt it?
There are games where you run into enemies and the battle starts,like DQM Joker?, maybe thats what he meant.

 

[omgpwn666]

Or like Mario and Luigi series,this game does not give warning at all,but thats like Final Fantasy and other Japanese RPG. Its a great game,im on my way to fix the flight core also,I cant play the game for long,like every hour or two for a short burst of 10-20 minutes.. But im usually like that with RPG.

I am currently playing this game, and so far I am loving it. (Not to quote Mc Donnalds)

The ground battles are simple and the Airship battles are great too.
It seems too easy to beat the bosses though, I beat the pharoh in 2 turns using skills, LAME!
Level grinding is too easy in this game as well.
Still, I can see that this is going to be both a decently long and entertaining game.
I like how the first area in the game is the Tower of Babel, a biblical location in Africa.
You remember The Tower of Babel, the tower that the people of the world tried to build up to the heavens and God made it fall and made the people speak different languages so it sounded like they where all babbling.

So far I have gotten to Cape Town Africa.
I also like the characters in this game, each one has their own distinctive attitude.

However, this game still does the stereotypical RPG thing; You where just a kid leading a normal, boring life until you hear that your father is missing, you then set out on an Adventure and your Mother doesn't even say "NO! I will not have my son vanish and abandon me like your father did!".
For reals though, WHAT IS UP WITH THIS STORYLINE!?

Sorry. I mean, compare Chrono Trigger (for example) encounters with this game encounters.

this game has a rather big curve on difficulty after fixing your flight core
