Can't believe I could forget Vagrant Story.
One of my favorite games, period. My only real gripe with it is that the weapon customization is so cool, but the menu wrangling to perform such is fairly annoying. Really amazing presentation, and with PS2 texture smoothing, still looks very nice. One of the few PS1 games that benefits immensely from the smoothing.
Record of Lodoss War is pretty cool. Not a stunning game, but I'm glad I grabbed a copy. The weapon buildup in that is also fun, and there are lots of nifty sidequests. Plus the game is rather staggeringly huge. Hilariously bad slowdown. Literally It's so bad in some places its funny.
I transferred computers and lost my last Nethack save files, so I don't have my current high scores. I MIGHT still have them on another hd, I'll have to check.Originally Posted by dog$
Generally, I can get down the Gehenna on a good run, and the Elemental Planes on a patient run. I tend to get bored right around the end of the quest/start of Gehenna though, there's a LOT of slogging at that point in the game, and a ton of necessary inventory fiddling if you want to get your Ascension Kit (tm) fully prepared. Most of my characters who reach this point don't die, I get bored with them and stop playing. Go figure.
Something really stupid - I've taught several people how to play Angband/Nethack over the years. One of them has beaten Angband, and I still haven't!
