A little of both, actually.Quote:

I think so far LaPucelle was my favorite.
The former. You get secret characters, cameo appearances of characters from other Nippon Ichi games, ultimate weapons and loads of other stuff. :PQuote:

Fallout 1 & 2. Turn based (sorta turn based, the battle system is actually a lot like Chrono cross's, except you can move around in battle) 2d isometric games, considered to be some of the greatest computer RPG's of all time.
Hitman 2 and Hitman: Blood Money both have a world travelling adventure feel to them. Plus plenty of shooting people! :D
@ Foxboy: Ever try morrowind for the PC? I find it very expansive with a big world. It may fit your line of style or not. idk. But thats my request for the day.
Try Outcast for an awesome action-adventure TPS. It's a pretty old game though, so if you're looking for fancy graphics, you'll probably be disappointed.Quote:

I have a brother that played Morrowind for Xbox and i wasn't impressed sry.
I'll look into Fable and Fallout though.
Outcast huh? Never heard of it.
Definitely worth looking at too.
edit:
Fallout is one of those overhead RPG's like Sacred, Sry not my style.
Still looking.
edit2x:
outcast looks much like KOTOR I and II
I like rpgs with a battle system like that of FF or the Tales of... Series.(i.e. battles take place separately from main world.)
(loved Tales of Symphonia!)
Roarrr. The viewpoint might be similar, but that doesn't stop the gameplay from being radically different. :PQuote:

Why did no one tell this guy to play Brave Fencer Musashi???
I am very disappointed in all of you. ALL OF YOU.
Maybe because that game sucks just as badly as any other game developed by Square tend to do these days? Musashi was one of the games that marked the beginning of a huge downhill for them o_OQuote:

I like Brave Fencer Musashi. ._. It doesn't live up to the standards of a typical Square game, but it's still good on it's own right. It's simple brainless fun. ^_^ And the action figures are a great extra. :P
Simple Brainless fun is about as far as it gets. It was way to easy for me.Quote:

Edit: Oh, and when the princess calls Musashi "You little turd!". Very memorable. :D
I'll give the game recognition for that. :|Quote:

as for ff style rpg your not gonna find much if any and after shooting down diablo style, kotor style rpg you might want to switch your genre or platform
Ill admit, it was short and the ending was a bit of a cliffhanger.(Final ending)
it got to the point where i could beat the entire game in 2 hours.(for each character that is)
Chances are though there isn't going to be a Dewprism 2.
Though there's always Duo Princess.
Threads of Fate beats the crap out of Musashi. :| The characters are better, the story is better, and the music in Threads of Fate is AMAZING.Quote:

I preferred playing as Mint to playing as Musashi. ;) Wee magic! Ring weapon thingies! Smartass comments! :D
The only problem with Fate is how damn short the game is.
If you like playing as Mint then you'll love Duo Princess.Quote:

So, are there any more Castlevanias in the metroid style of SOTN and the handheld games? I feel like playing another castlevania, but I don't really like the style of the first games (straight action/platform run through the levels, no saving, no exploring, no meaningful items to collect). Anyone got a recommendation of a good Castlevania, or castlevania knock-off?
The only mentroidvanias are
Castlevania Symphony of the Night
Castlevania Circle of the Moon (GBA)
Castlevania Harmony of Dissonance (GBA) (Which sucks BTW)
Castlevania Aria of Sorrow (GBA)
Castlevania Dawn of Sorrow (NDS) (Sequel to AoS)
Castlevania Portrait of Ruin (NDS) (Best portable Castlevania next to DoS)
The PS2 ones are sorta in a similar style but I've only played Lament of Innocence. And it sucks.

The old Castlevanias were awesome! Super Castlevania 4, Bloodlines, Dracula X Turbo Duo... *drool*
Your mom sucks! :(Quote:

The thing that most gets me about the old-school Castlevanias is the lack of saving and free exploring. Besides that, they're ok, but I prefer the RPG style. Lots of different weapons, spells, powerups, progress saving, a story told ingame and not just in intro and ending screens... :P
I want to play the two DS Castlevanias, but I just can't justify the purchase of a whole system for two games. >_>; The stylus is really, really awkward for me to use, so I don't like most DS games cause I can't get past the controls. Just like, I want to play the two PSP GTA games, but I don't think I'll be buying a PSP for that anytime soon. :P
I've got a ROM of Dawn of Sorrow, and the IdeaS emulator, but it's got a long way to go. >_> It's definitely promising, though! The game started, and played, it just played at about 2 frames a second, with no sound and the foreground graphics not showing and black boxes around the sprites and effects (the ones that were visible, of course >_>).
i've only played curse of darkness on xbox. it wasnt that great but not bad either
biko3 for pc with the nude patch ;) trust me look up the game
the first link google displays for that game is a torrent link.
lol.
ill give it a try :split:Quote:

Personally im not a castlevainia person but the one i did play (Dawn of Sorrow) wasn't bad at all.(ended up selling it back to GameStop)
You need patience for that game. And look past the horrible synth to get to the nice compositions underneath... :PQuote:

The music is one thing but the gameplay ain't too hot either. All the bosses are sissys =(Quote:

Mm, Dak'kon, the game looks good. :D I'm always a fan of puzzles and traps and such... as long as you don't take a "Prince of Persia" route. Hated that game. >_>;
Downloading it now. :D Thanks!
*edit* Well, the low resolution and jumping controls will take a bit of getting used to (Why doesn't this have a windowed mode? O_o) , and money is extremely hard to come by so far (enemies are dropping way more weights than coins, oddly enough, even though the manual really stressed the importance of stones as puzzle tools. I'd expect them to be rarer). I've managed to get the save ROM and the hand scanner, at least. Still need the translator thingy. Overall, it looks really fun, and I think I'll keep playing this (and keep wishing it didn't run full screen >_>).
The ingame music is also great. :) It kinda makes the visuals seem worse because of how good it is in comparison. >_>
Bah, graphics never bothered me - "text only" is good enough graphics for me. :P Also, check out some Maze of Galious screenshots, it mimics its art style pretty accurately. It almost feels as if it were running on an actual MSX. The jumping (which is indeed odd at first, as is the whip usage) and difficulty just adds to the retro feeling of the game. You want to play the game with a piece of paper and a pen nearby, so you can jot down the hints, and not have to revisit them later. Also, don't worry about having too many weights, there are doors that can only be opened through the use of them, and become closed again once you leave the screen.Quote:

And yeah, the music is great. Even more so since it's 'just' MIDI. I also like how you have two sets of instruments to choose from for any given song.
