Scrubbing = fail

 

[Psy29a]

What's that supposed to mean? It doesn't work when scrubbed or you just generally disapprove of scrubbing in general? If it's the former then thanks for the info, if it's the latter then you might look into getting a life.

What is up with the massive amount of lurkers popping up to make snotty comments lately? If you've got nothing to add to the topic, then continue to lurk and stop embarrassing yourselves.

On Topic: Works fine with Wiikey 1.9s burned on Verbatim -R at 1x speed with ImgBurn.

How does me not liking scrubbing equate to me allegedly not having a life?


I don't care for it, but, it does cause problems with a few releases ... namely Mario Kart and this ... makes this game lock up, in later sections.

You might want to be a bit more careful of how you talk to people, especially when it's help or info you are after ... as it may stop people from wanting to help or inform you.

 

[Psy29a]

I'm sorry for implying that since you were actually trying to be helpful. It's a bit tough to tell though from the context, those sort of comments are used all over the internet as general statements of disapproval and if it really bothered you that someone else would want to scrub it then... I would never have even thought that if you had just said it causes lock ups.

So thanks and sorry again for assuming you were being rude.

Okay

i am very much into rogue-likes, so bob you seem to know a bit about this i have 2 questions

is the game too much affected by realtime battles, or does it still feel roguelike?
and how is the difficulty? (quite high i hope)

thx

 

[Bob Evil]

Difficulty : High

How rogue-like is it? : Quite ... the view is not as far back as most rogue-likes are ... you are pretty much right up to the character you control. The battles aren't real-time, really ... they are that super-quick turn-based, where you only have an instant to react.

[Side-note : I finished Chocobo's Dungeon of Forgotten Time, recently, on the Wii, and it is an amazing rogue-like ... with some lovely new features, like job classes, and a mirror that allows you to replay dungeons, over and over ... it is not that hard though, compared to other rogue-likes.]


Additional note : the controls for this game are slightly better on the PS2 version.

Watch out here!!!

I don't get it. Why do even accomplished developers like Atlus half-ass games for the Wii?

$$$$

$$$$ ? Yeah sure, because rogue-like games are oh so well known for being classic best-sellers...
BTW, Atlus's just publishing it - Sting are the ones to blame for this apparently shoddy port.

 

[reilina]

hey bobdevil i was gonna play in ps2 but i still have doubts.
besides the gameplay what can u say about the customization
and other stuff (eqiupments, mini-games etc.?

If you have issues with this game, then it is Sting, and not Atlus, who dropped the ball, in the weaker areas.

Customization isn't any better or worse than your average rogue-like, and to be honest, you've probably seen this all before, in other 3-D rogue-likes, but that doesn't make it a terrible game. At the end of the day, it's all down to whether or not you are interested enough to use up a blank DVD-R.

 

[King Zargo]

I was waiting for this

 

[Bob Evil]

Ya see, you either are 100% for rogue-likes, and will try to play them all, or they aren't really your cup of tes, and you might try them, once in a while, or you flat-out hate them.

 

[Lumstar]

If your Wii is modded, it doesn't matter too much. Unique enough release to poke around in.

 

[triassic911]

I can't find this game on usenet.....

 

[Raylene2K7]

Game works on PAL

you don't need Trucha or Free Loader

I'm intrigued here - you say you wouldn't play a scrubbed one, yet you say that it locks up later in the game for a scrubbed copy.

Can you give a specific example of where it locks up so I can try and find out why.

The Mario Kart one....well the 1.0a scrubber software showed an error, just people didn't notice it (and trying to read the compress image back in would have shown an "io error" as a pop up box). Thats now been fixed.

 

[Bob Evil]

It may be fine, with the new Scrubber ... I don't know ... I am only reporting back what others have posted, on various download sites, with a scrubbed version that was upped there.

They report that going into, or out of a dungeon, after a few hours play, causes a black screen, and a lock up.
