    I still haven't had a chance outside of messing around with the first bit for a few minutes. I'm hoping tomorrow I'll be able to start up and play a bunch, but my car has started having some concerning issues that I might need to spend most of tomorrow addressing instead. Every day that I think I'm going to have free lately, terrible things happen.

    I like Beatrice's hair. Is that something they show you how to do in the game by any chance >.>

    I think I will try Little Busters some day. Is it hard to get a hold of?

    Oh wow, thanks When I was writing the story, I had a female narrator in mind, but I guess nothing really indicates that. My wife, on the other hand, read it as a male narrator, so I guess it was neutral enough Also, I know I skipped a couple of weeks, but now I have a whole lineup of really short shorts written to last me until the end of June, so I can keep the stories coming and write my thesis at the same time, yay!

    Also, thanks for reaching out to me like that. You're now probably my most faithful reader outside of friends and family, so yeah, it means a lot One of the stories I'm gonna upload in the following weeks is kind of a sketch for my VN idea, so stay tuned

    On the topic of VNs, I also want to mention that I read through your top list that you posted (didn't want to go too deep to avoid spoilers), and let me just say my backlog for the summer (or just for after uni, since I'll have way more time, I hope) has extended and I at least to try Umineko no Naku Koro Ni

    That doesn't surprise me. Sounds like a hard game to translate.

    Guess I'll have to learn Japanese.

    I think it's great you're reviewing Visual Novels. Good way to stand out too since I don't know too many critics who just specializes in VNs. There was one VN I was always curious about, the Utena game for Sega Saturn that never came out over here. Have you ever played that? I'm not even sure if there's an English translation for it or not.

A Modern Guide to Ys - Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of DANA

by Karifean on 01-12-2020 at 12:17 AM

YS VIII: LACRIMOSA OF DANA

If it's not clear by now, I adore the Ys series. I love how purely fun these games are, I love the simple sense of adventure, and the sense of genuine mystique from uncovering the lore of ancient places of legend. I love the way Falcom humanizes their characters and really makes them feel 'real' in a way other studios' JRPGs struggle to match. And whatever I may have said about Celceta it still is a game that has a lot of that.

A Modern Guide to Ys - Ys: Memories of Celceta (Ys IV)

YS: MEMORIES OF CELCETA (YS IV)

Time for a quick history lesson! Ys IV's history is a strange one indeed. Back around its initial release there were actually two games that were Ys IV, there was "Ys IV: Dawn of Ys" by Hudson Soft on the PC Engine (TurboGrafx-16) CD-ROM, and then there was "Ys IV: Mask of the Sun" by Tonkin House on the SNES. How did that happen? Well Falcom were in a bit of a situation at

A Modern Guide to Ys - Ys Seven

YS SEVEN

Heading into the final era of Ys games and in the series' timeline the chronologically last of the localized games so far we have Ys Seven. Released for the PSP in late 2009 and ported to the PC years later, this game marks a heavy departure from earlier titles in the series in terms of graphics, gameplay and storytelling alike. The shift was met with mixed reception, but given all that came out of it, I couldn't be

A Modern Guide to Ys - Ys Origin

YS ORIGIN

Now for perhaps one of the best-known games in the series, Ys Origin has gained quite a bit of notoriety especially on Steam, probably mainly because its Steam trailer is super hype. Does it deserve it? Well, to put it very simply... hell yeah it does.


As mentioned already, in Ys Origin you do not play as Adol. That's because this game is a prequel to the Ys I & II duology,

A Modern Guide to Ys - Ys: The Oath in Felghana (Ys III)

YS: THE OATH IN FELGHANA (YS III)

The third Ys game was known in the SNES era as "Wanderers of Ys", and was the game to introduce a lot of the western world to the series. Its reputation overall has been mixed, being a sort of "Zelda II: The Adventure of Link" of the Ys series, ditching the overhead view for a sidescrolling adventure and as already implied not really being about the land of Ys at all anymore,
