Yes, it's much like those games. Very bland, typical story, tons of spells and skills that you'll never use because it's more practical just to use normal attacks.
Snide remarks aside, it's a great attempt at making an old school style RPG. Best attempt I've seen on the DS yet, so have at it. Plus if you're just downloading it, you've got nothing to lose.

Yeah, well except for the fact that 80% of all your "modern" jrpgs resolve around 1 incredible overused sci-fi/fantasy cliche which is surrounded by dozens of layers of useless badly-written cutscences, charcter progression that actually explain anything and is just a excuse for letting them act out of character and (last but not least) stupid dialog that actually resolves in NOTHING.
Those "bland" games are still played and well respected today. And that isn't because of "nostalgia". -.-
So jump down from your high horse.
@kingtomy: Try chrono trigger and DQ.

DS1 said:I don't recall saying modern JRPGs were any better in terms of story, but they are much, much better in terms of gameplay. Do you have anything constructive to say about the boring gameplay?
Also to the guy who said FF6's story held up: I agree, it's a fantastic game all around, but I didn't think people would take me so seriously so I didn't rule it out.

But yes, get Nostalgia if you have any liking of classic old 80's and 90's RPG's. Plus you have airship battles and a Final Fantasy X styled grid ability system (which doesn't suck, trust me, even if you hate FFX).

overdrive
combo attack
dead boss
airship battle however had a much different curve on diffculty after getting the altitude
Slowing down enemies is quite useful. ;|clegion said:basically we got a skill that got automatically stronger everytime you level up and get new piece of equipment, and can even get stronger afterwards by raising the skill level
have anyone find a use for Pad?, he looks useless in my party
