The RPG Golden Years

Recommended Posts

What, praytell, would you find to be the most appealing thing of retro-RPGs? There are many aspects to consider:

  • Simplicity of the menu
  • Level-skill learning
  • Different character classes

And this just names a FEW different aspects.

 

Now, my question to everyone is; what is everyone's favorite aspect; so debate this away, and we'll see.

 

I personally love the original Dragon Warrior, Wizardry, and other similar dungeon crawlers. The way to gain skills was simple: Level. Further, everything was easy... until a boss.

I can think of one thing, and one thing only, and that's the music.

The music was wonderful. And you know, perhaps we should define 'retro'. Even when you think of it, i believe FFVII is over 10 years old.

Like i said in another topic, I like Choices. Being able to control how my character acts. Ect.

 

Was there really a retro game that would allow that? i'm not sure about it... If so, i'd like to know.

I fully agree like Star Ocean 2 The Second Story my favorite game of all time.

 

The max level is nice 255

You can create items by mixing some

You can spend points you get from leveling on skills

The music is nice

Great battle system

You get to chose to take party members that you meet along or not

There is over 60 different endings depending on your choices in the game

 

Is that what you are asking Leon?

Yep. But when i originally started this topic, it was based on NES and SNES; however, when you think about it.. the PS and N64 now can be considered 'retro', i do suppose
