[cubin']

I had Doom RPG on my old phone, that game was great, I hope this is good.
Hated Etrian btw.


What was wrong with Etrian Odyssey?

This is one game I am looking forward to...I am usually just scanning the forums...but this game has me excited...was it released yesterday? I can not find it in the shops.

I second that.

I heard most stores won't stock this game as it isn't high profile enough.

is it still first person?

 

[GeekyGuy]

is it still first person?

Yeah.

It plays kind of like Tao's Adventure in the first-person, but doesn't really animate until you move your character. It animates much like Etrian Odyssey. It looks and feels pretty archaic. However, I found it to be more enjoyable than I'd expected. I've only tinkered with it a bit, but it's pretty fun so far.

Me: DIE GIANT RATS DIE!!!

This game is pretty fun, reminds me of the old days when DnD Video Games first began to surface.

Anyone got any cool videos of this? Cause so far, I'm not really that excited about it. :X

Seems like Dungeon Master but with only 1 party member. Almost exactly the same.

finally a good rpg to play since the ds is really lacking things actually worth playing along with contra this is a good one

Well, Etrian Odyssey was aimed at a certain demographic (e.g. the old-school table-top/AD&D-CRPGers), so it's common that some people would find it boring or not to their liking. (Just like how I find that Joker crap boring as well.)

However, if you did like/love Etrian (or the Doom RPG for J2ME), then most likely you're going to enjoy Orcs & Elves. It's amazing the engine was created in four days by John Carmack himself.

The guy's a fucking genius.

 

[Dead Ghost]

Four days? Holy shiat

.

Me waits for quake ds by Carmack.

I'm really enjoying the game myself.

I'm loving this game so far. Its not too complex and allows me to zone out into it.

 

[Grimalkin]

I have to say, the first encounter with the Orc Raiders was annoying. So I spent more time finding secrets in the previous levels and leveling up.

Orcs and Elves on NDS sucks, seriously! They made one for the phone last year and I played it, I found it decent since it was on the phone. They just remade the phone verison and dumped in the NDS verison. The graphics were just as bad as the phone one, also the plot and everything was the same nothing much change except the screens.

Moron. Did you not notice the completely redone geometry engine, or the high-res sprites? How about the lighting effects, the framerate, or even the added areas? Never speak again.

Dude, argue/discuss but there's no need for name calling

Had you ever played the phone one it's nearly the exact same thing, it's almost the same thing.

I have, in fact, played the phone one. In anticipation for this release, I played through both Doom RPG and Orcs and Elves Mobile. Yes, it's an enhanced port, and no, it's -not- the same assets as the phone build.
