Really Obscure RPGs

[KeighnMcDeath]

Do you really need a no-cd since it would be a mounted iso? There's a few first google choices: game burn world, game copy world, and lonebullet. The last two were being bitches so GBW it was. I really hate those sites.

On the topic of Dawn of Magic - I remember that when it released, the gaming magazines hyped it up something fierce and it was the hottest thing of the month thanks to the unique mechanic of changing your character's appearance based on the most commonly used magic type.

Finally found these pics.

The idea of wizards turning into something utterly inhuman as they become more proficient with their element was cool AF. Shame that the game itself was crap.

Possibly inspired by the Dark Sun campaign setting, where extremely high level wizards gradually transform into either a dragon or an avangion.

It is like kaleidoscope of homo flags and vegetarian propaganda made to be attractive to children.
Disgusting.

Has anyone here played a couple games called "The Legend of Amberland"?

Yeah, first one was a blast but haven't played second one yet. Still on my list for summer if I can get some days off.

Do you mind giving me a TLDR review? Is it a good entry point for someone like me who isn't really familiar with blobbers? That's how I found it advertised

I actually can't think of a better entry point for someone who isn't really familiar with blobbers. The UI's straightforward and pleasant, it's mostly fighting, getting stronger, walking and solving simple quests through a reasonable size world, there's no puzzle or anything of the kind where you could get stuck. The character system is easy to apprehend and default difficulty is on the easy side so you can create the party you want to play and it'll be good enough. It's pretty fun too.

Sounds good! I'll grab it and give it a go, see how I feel about it.

CryptRat Cyberarmy i tried Legends of Amberland!

Very cozy vibes, i love how it feels

I also learned I suck dingus at this kind of game and kept getting wiped on normal in the first bandit hideout

time to throw myself at the wall till it clicks because something feels right

I'm just not used to this

I can give some advice,

-At first go with the core classes and avoid most of the hybrid ones. A dwarf warrior is better than a dwarf troll slayer.
-Warriors and knights are really powerful and you can get more of them if you are getting wrecked.
-If you need heals get a bard to help your "healer" class (why not cleric or druid...) If you need damage battlesmith gets a nice damage buff for the party and can cast fireball.
-Enemies can join battle if they see you fightning, try not to fight more than 2 enemies at the first and flee if necessary.
-Bandits are one of the first enemies you face, so they are easier than most except goblins, so git gud with fightning them and goblins. Even the ogres were easy except their leader type variants.
-Most buffs stay on till midnight and will still be active after a rest(probably short) if you won't pass midnight while resting.
