/vr/ - Retro Games

Sony went all out on the marketing for this one only to forget about it shortly after release.

Whenever people talk about this game it's only to shit on it but I actually kinda like it. In terms of JRPGs I played I'd rank it alongside FF9 but for polar opposite reasons; both succeed where the other fails i.e LoD had good gameplay but bad story, while FF9 had bad gameplay but good story.

Play the PSP version instead. The DS remake is more pitched towards hardcore veteran fans of the game/series.

>I kinda hate people bitching about the additions when they always bitch about FF games being press X to win

I'm kinda in that boat to be honest. I mean FF7 is one of my favorite games of all time but I'm not going to lie about it being way too easy, hell I could have sleepwalked through that game.

Regarding LoD it pretty much encourages you to spam Attack to win since your only other means of attack come from the magic items. The rest of the game is average at best, it had some good moments (like when Rose slapped Lavitz for trying to drag her away - I don't know why but it made me chuckle) but fails to deliver on the potential it had, which is a shame because it could have been a much better game.
