I've played Origin and Oath in Felghana and love both, and I played a bit of AoN before it was released on steam with improvements and I wasn't really feeling it. Definitely going to grab Ys 1+2 during the winter steam sale.

Up to the mine in Ys I, this game is great. I'm using the original PC-88 soundtrack.

The mine is brutal on hard mode.

Bat family demon at the bottom of the mines in Ys I is kicking my rear end and I have all the silver equipment.

Currently sailing to Felghana for the first time in several years. I'm excited to finally play hard and nightmare.

Does the PSTV play Ys games? I don't need a vita but I'd like to play 7 and Celceta before Ys 8 comes out.

About to pull the trigger on one then. I'm going to need a vita memory card right?

I haven't played Oath since before it was on steam and man is this game awesome. I'm really happy that I now own all of the Ys games on steam.

Evil Eagle

That harpy boss on the mountain was awesome. The best part about replaying this game after so long is that I forgot almost every boss. I have no idea what the bosses are in the castle aside from chester but I do remember that there are like 4 of them.

Valestein Castle... :worship: :mario:

Evil Eagle

2 bosses down in Valestein Castle and I think yellow is my new favorite magic. Green was definitely my favorite in my first playthrough but yellow is so drat satisfying to use. I need to find the battle sword...

Ooof. The final boss is kicking my rear end once he hits phase 2.

God drat phase 3 is insane. I love this boss.

Ok drat, I finally started Oath in Felghana after some controller issues last I tried, and the intro's music blew me away. I'm totally suckered in. I set the game on normal, is that a mistake?

No normal is good. Enjoy.

The thread tag is me after slamming into the final boss's eyeball with earth magic and activating burst to deal 3500 damage in mere seconds.

lol he had a straight up no domain site that was even better years before, but long story short this dude translated YS I & II PC / Napishtim and got pissed when he was working on Felghana and the patch was leaked when it was completed. Dude flipped out and made insane posts that featured 80 gifs of the dark knight joker clapping and calling ys fans bitching, worthless pirating freeloaders, lol. ALso, he put his donation poo poo up on the site and the only way you were supposed to get the patch was if you donated to him. he 's insanely cool

wasn't there a thing where one line of dialog was not translated unless you got the donation version of the patch? or am I thinking of a different insane translator

Ys VI is weird so far. Adol has a 3 hit combo, there's no burst and the area design seems a lot different than Oath. I just got the first real sword though so I'm interested to see how the combat opens up.

Is there any good reason to beat the halberd guy the first time Adol meets him or is just for a steam achievement. I'm playing on Hard/Catastrophe.

Oh hell yes Adol gets a lightning rapier. Ys VI has cool weapons.

Limewater Cave is extremely confusing though. I'm going to have to draw a map.
