Otaku Princess Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 Welp, I got it from a friend who wants me to beat it and I don't think she'll get it back! It's pretty good, the plot has some depth to it. There are some things I don't like. The fact that the monsters' levels get so rampped up so fast when I'm still at L. 20. That's not cool. Now, I know its not the best RPG for the GBA but the characters are SOOOO cute! There is one thing I di need help with, I'm at the Venus Lighthouse and I can't figure out how to get past that "lady". Ya know, the stone statue and the floor has a lot of little circles on it. I've been stuck on there since LAST Monday. Does anyone know what to do? FF Crystal Chronicles is, by popularity, cooler, but this one is just for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semjaza Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 I don't like the game at all. I think the story is incredibly dull, the characters lifeless, the translation sleep inducing, the battle system flawed... The game is pretty and sounds great, but that's all I can say I like about it. My main problem is probably the battle system. There's just nothing to it. You can blast through nearly every confrontation with the Djinn, making anything else basically useless. Any restrictions placed on Djinn usage are far too lax, making them too easy to use often. Plus, the original was the first RPG I've played in probably a decade that has you attacking monsters that already died. I thought this died out in the early years of the NES. It's return was a major turn-off for me. The only interesting things for me were the powers you could use in towns and on the world map. Unfortunately, these powers are never utilized as much as they could have been and are often made tedious. I just don't like the game, personally. I don't like FF:CC either heh.

James Posted September 20, 2004 Share Posted September 20, 2004 [color=#707875]I was really disappointed with Golden Sun. The visuals were gorgeous, but really, it was such a flat experience. The story was awful, the characters had no real identity or warmth and the battle system was pretty average. -.- I haven't played the sequel though, so I don't know how good that is. I haven't played FF:CC either, but it sounds like it's only really worthwhile when you have multiple players.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otaku Princess Posted September 20, 2004 Author Share Posted September 20, 2004 yes, everyone has an opinion. And thats what I like to hear!! I too found it dull at times, the dialogue ran too slow and there was to much of it. But this is the kind of games i love. They can make the time pass away while waiting for a storm to end. It got me through hurricane Ivan, though... I didn't get very far. It is pretty sad, but hey, I only paid $5 for it. Deal? Mabye. Still, If anyone knows how to get past that level, help is appreciated. As are comments! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
