It was the difference between my renting the game versus buying it, but that's okay, right? :PAntonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12470259020714818820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1544986590661740950.post-21821093092202505312009-10-19T11:42:08.485-07:002009-10-19T11:42:08.485-07:00Yeah I think it really fits best that it wasn'...Yeah I think it really fits best that it wasn't multiplayer.

It was definitely a "boy and his dog" story, and that the dog was an AI beastie made it feel like a capricious canine. A player steering it wouldn't have felt right.<br /><br />When the kart crashed during a late game battle, I sadly retired the game. I just didn't have the heart to start over.<br /><br />Ogre Battle was brilliant. I love turn based strategy, and that's one that I miss more than most.<br /><br />Currently I'm lost in Disgaea DS, though, so I'm happy enough. :)Teshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11760350503235227686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1544986590661740950.post-23994186396790747152009-10-14T09:02:56.771-07:002009-10-14T09:02:56.771-07:00:D Thanks Forjador, I agree, those were the days! ...:D Thanks Forjador, I agree, those were the days! In fact I haven't seen many single player RPG's except for maybe final fantasy 7+9 that had very good, fun storylines since those days. I wonder if all the good writers left for the book writing or film industries or something. Tales has a good plot but it isn't as good as these older games. Maybe they had to have good plots because the graphics weren't that amazing.. hmm perhaps there's a correlation.<br /><br />Anyways, I DID play Ogre Battle although I only got about halfway through but it was da bomb and so was FF Tactics. Ogre Battle had lots of interesting things to it, including a malleable plot-line and recruiting enemy units to your side.Thallianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05906461308866998300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1544986590661740950.post-71266433031649381122009-10-14T08:59:35.118-07:002009-10-14T08:59:35.118-07:00I played Secret of Evermor--rented it a few times ...I played Secret of Evermor--rented it a few times when I was in middle-school. It was good, but my big complaint was the lack of multiplayer, which was what really made Secret of Mana for me.Antonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12470259020714818820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1544986590661740950.post-53829972448709630032009-10-14T01:24:13.284-07:002009-10-14T01:24:13.284-07:00I have been loving reading all the Thallian's ...I have been loving reading all the Thallian's favourites series.
