    That's just the risk of using these kind of sites. Any of them could suddenly end up having viruses when it didn't have them for many days before of downloading tons of stuff. I could go get Little Busters right now and have no issues. Or tons of issues. You never know. I'm just not comfortable doing it yet but eventually I'll probably break down and get it.

    I'm interested in Little Busters quite a bit, but I already have Clannad and Tomoyo After. I wish I could just buy and play Little Busters right now. The download site I was using that you pointed to started giving my computer a ton of viruses so I probably won't use it again. I think it was specifically the muvluv files that gave them to me but I'm unsure.

    Things have been a little rough lately. My great grandpa died last week, and it's been pretty hard on all of my family and me. I'm doing a lot better now, but still a bit sad.

    I've been reading through Kanon at the moment. I'm almost done with it (finishing my final route tonight). I... don't know how I feel about it really. There are things I like, and I can see some of the building blocks for Clannad in there to some extent which is interesting. It's definitely an early Key work. I can't help but read it though and think "I wish I was reading Clannad instead." That's next by the way! Clannad and then Tomoyo After. If you ever get around to reading it, we should talk about it. If you really like it compared to my more "meh" thoughts towards it, I'll probably decide I just chose a bad time to read it with my great grandpa's death and just going through a short period of not really getting as much interest out of anything.

    Thanks. That's my thing. I do it for all my reviews if I can think of something funny to say. Is this the first review of mine you've read?

    No I haven't. I have not really gamed much lately. I keep talking about it but I also keep putting it off.

    I remember Xenogears had one of the main characters' gears named "Seibzehn", which was pretty embarrassing

    Also, Xenoblade Chronicles X has this one awesome track called "wir fliegen" which is supposedly in German?



    I really love the language, though a lot of people here are really prejudiced against it, which is a shame. Heck, some of my group friends hate it, even though we're all studying it

    But yeah, I think Polish wins in the difficulty category. I think it's one of the top 3 most difficult languages on many lists. Looking at how people German and English here, I can draw some interesting conclusions: for Poles, English is easy at the beginning, but the rules get more and more complex as you go, making it hard to master, whereas German is quite complex from the beginning, but doesn't get that much more difficult later on, so while people start speaking German much later when learning it, if you do study it at all, it's much more difficult to master

    The funny thing is, I always get complimented on how well I speak German, because that's a general talent of mine - I can sound native-like in a new language very quick, but O can never easily take in vocabulary, so I doubt I'll ever excel in English or use my translating skills in practice

    I might someday, if I feel like it And trust me - I'm even luckier to have Polish as my native language, rather than German For starters, you guys have four cases - we have eight.

    You know, I actually study English/German translations, so German is actually my C language, but I'm always extremely shy and uncomfortable about my German skill. Ich bin der Meinung dass mein Deutsh schrecklich ist

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,
