An Update Appears! Command?

Alright, so I replayed this, and there's a few areas that need to be fixed, or suggestions.

1. When you get the jumping boots to access that cave. First, the issue. Coming back out of the cave and jumping back to the main continent shifts the screen in such a way that your character is off screen. You then have to walk blindly around the map looking for a town or dungeon to enter to reset the map. Fine if you remember the town close by. But every time you hit a mountain wall and have to move back, the screen gets further off track.

1A. Second to that, making the shoes able to be equipped like the Swamp shoes, and having more secrets to jump to on other islands or in dungeons would be a nice touch.

2. The last dungeon is a bit broken. First, in that area where those pink guys are, the ones that touch you and send you back to the beginning, wander around aimlessly unlike the other ones you encounter that walk on a set path. If they wind up surrounding you at the beginning, you're stuck in a loop with no way to escape the room, and have to reset the game. I believe somebody posted an example of this already.

Here's his quote:

Cruel man. I'm stuck in a loop.



3. In that same dungeon, the fire room is also broken. If you touch the fire, you wind up trapped in a black part of the map and can't move. This is for each and every one of the fires, so it'll take a bit to fix. I fixed my own copy of the game by adding a path back to where I was from where it dropped me off, versus fixing each instant of teleportation.

4. Likewise, in that same room, the next room that leads to the final slime also drops you off somewhere broken that you can't move, of which I fixed in my copy of the game.

5. Finally, the slime quest is also broken. I got all 20, but the Yeti told me I had 5 more to bring, and he wouldn't talk to me after that. At that point, I was near the end of the game anyways.

I didn't bother with the ultimate dungeon, since it was post-game content, so I can't help you with any issues there. However, as a suggestion, maybe you could make it pre-game, since I generally prefer to do everything before finishing the game.

Edit:
One more suggestion, we have swamp shoes to get through swamps, and I suggested adding jump shoes with more areas to do so as an accessory. The bomb guy would be one other way to expand exploration. Right now, there is only one area to use the bomb, but the guys says he will charge you for more, which he never does since you never have to buy more. It'd be nice to have more areas late in the game where you could buy bombs to open up areas and uncover other secrets.

I think that's what stops this from being the ultimate in the original trilogy, in that there are so many ways to add secrts, but the only real secret in the game other than the slime quest is the swamp shoes and the legendary weapons (which comes after beating the game).

Wild Wings: First Flight

Just saw this, but 5 to 8 hours? Maybe if you know every secret and racing through the game. Myself took probably close to 20 hours, and the YT video for this game was maybe shy of that by a few hours.

To be honest, when I first played it, I was expecting something around the 10 hour mark and was surprised for how long the game was, but with all the story and adventuring packed into it, it's no wonder.

Ninja Gaiden II?

An Update Appears! Command?

I was contemplating replaying DF2 the other day; guess I'll wait for the update now. :)

Any idea on timeframe, like end of this year or beginning of next, or much further into the future?

Epic Paper Mario

I'm still waiting for Nintendo to find you and either shut you down or recruit you for the next big 2D Mario game. You've got enough experience for both.

I could imagine how much better the Wii U would have been if they had recruited him to make the next Mario RPG. Nintendo's loss.

Which Castlevania Game is Your Favorite?

I'm a bit out of the norm myself, in that I had so much fun playing CV2 on the NES more so than any of the other titles. Sometime back there was a fan remake of it called Castlevania 2 Revamped, with graphics on par with the SNES and added boss fights to the mansions, and it made it much more worthwhile to play.

RPG Maker 2000 Value! Is now out in English!

Quick question in regards to the legal English RTP. If I download this, will it replace the non-legal version, or will it be in addition to?

I ask because while it's great to see this finally legal and newer games coming from it, I don't want to jeopardize being able to play previous games that used the non-legal version.

Primeforce Review

Another very good review from you, and addressed my thoughts accordingly. I remembered briefly watching your LP and then thinking it looked good enough of a game to play on my own. It had a very strong start and showed promise, but the awkward grammar, misspellings, and cut-offs were enough to ruin immersion.

3 hours later and the game's fate was sealed with Gloom Wood. The problem here, on top of an increase of awkward pacing and grammar, was the high encounter rate. At this point I decided it was best to part ways.

FF7 remake. It's a thing.

The PC version also has a few optional cool mods (graphics, gameplay, fixes, bug fixes, etc).


And with the mods, you can pretty much get the remaster you always wanted with some upscaled graphics, replaced character mods, and whatnot, and still keep the exact same gaming experience.
