    Hot take: This game is one of my favourite non-Nintendo platformers. The soundtrack was awesome, the first half of the game was always a blast for me to play through, the powerup system was neat and you could actually get a feel for how fast Rocky actually is during the freeway level since, you know, Rocky is shown OVERTAKING cars at freeway speeds. I'll admit that the game is extremely unforgiving later on (and impossible to beat on console without the infinite continues cheat) and the sewer/clock tower levels aren't really any fun to go through at all, but I still have fun with this game, even if I usually only play up to the chili factory boss and not much further because then it stops being fun.

    Strangely I was so bored with this RPG.. I can tell it's good but it was not exciting to me. The economy was really badly balanced, I always had tons of money, the graphics were good but the village and dungeon environments were so overused it felt very dull after a while. The musics were great though and it was quite rare to see Zelda elements in an RPG!

  • @RekkaAlexiel
    @RekkaAlexiel 9 дней назад

    @36.59: I believe the garbled text is due to the game trying to decipher Japanese text that was left in the script. The other graphical glitches seem to be errors in the game code itself rather than the dialogue script, so it's likely that somebody messed up the code somewhere when they were handling the localization. I have no experience with localization in the SNES days, but I can imagine that's probably what happened. As for simple typos in the dialogue, these are SUPER easy to miss because the dialogue is often just in a huge, long spreadsheet (this is how it's done today, so I'm going to assume they did something similar back then... but it may have been even more crude and hard to spot typos).

      @arkhire5883 Appreciate it! With games from this era, I know pronunciation can be a bit different from person to person so I put the disclaimer just in case. For example, a popular way to pronounce Marle is Marl (rhyme with Carl), but I've always said Marle the way I did in the video. Just wanted to cover my bases 😂

    Everyone keeps misunderstanding that the amulet given to Janus. It is not Marle's pendant to the point where I think someone misinterpreted the scene and everyone just apes it without paying attention to the in game text. The game makes it very clear that the Schala's pendant is Marle's pendant when it shows Schala using a pendant to open the door to the Mammon Machine and its the exact same sprite as Marle's pendant and then later it's mention that Schala used the last of her power to save everyone on the Ocean Palace. What makes it even more frustrating this time is that you went from claiming that Janus's amulet later becomes Marle's pendant then moments later note that Marle's powered up to unlock the mammon-locked doors and chests. Also, I don't think the game actually calls out that the amulet Schala gave Janus looks like Marle's pendant, but if it did it's only to show they were both made by Schala. Janus's amulet is supposed to be another reference to Janus being Magus as he's equipped with an accessory called Amulet when you get him.

    • @hutchkey2397
      @hutchkey2397 11 дней назад

      I haven't seen others talk about this scene, but I definitely misinterpreted it. I'm aware that Schala's pendant is the same as Marle's pendant. I guess the term "pendant" stuck in my head and I conflated the pendant Schala gave Janus to her own pendant which eventually becomes Marle's. I didn't even realize that Magus starts off with the Amulet in his equipment. Even after diving deep into this game, I keep learning new things 😃 Thanks for your explanation, and I hope you can otherwise enjoy the video 🙂

      ​@@2changotb Around the time I played it, I was playing a bunch of other games I liked more, I guess! So it didn't leave as much of an impact as other games. I wasn't a huge fan of Akira Toriyama's art (which has put me off from Dragon Quest for like years, too, and even then, all I've played is the Builder games), the game didn't have as much tooth as I was hoping for (I was used to like, Lufia: Fortress of Doom as far as combat goes, and Lufia: Rise of the Sinistrals had me expecting puzzles out of a JRPG), and it just got overshadowed by whatever else I was playing, like Treasure of the Rudras and Half Life. My "this game is/isn't fun" takes tend to be unpopular 😅I'm an ardent FF12 defender and FF7 original/remake disliker, I enjoyed Cyberpunk 2077 and Deus Ex: Mankind Divided on launch, and I think Doom 2016 is a better game than Doom Eternal. Mind, I *do* like some things, the music, mainly. And I had fun ripping through the flying fortress with Crono and Ayla. As a complete *thing*, though, it just wasn't my cup of tea.

It was a random game I bought at a down town grocery market, I think I paid $10 for it at the time. I bonded so hard with this game, as it took me about a whole school year to finish. To me it was an absolute masterpiece. The ending hit me so hard. Possibly the first time I teared up in a game. However I never could convince my friends to play it through. I unfortunately like, mostly everyone else I knew, traded their old beaten to death games in for later generation games, like Halo. Between playing hardcore sweaty halo infinite, I always find myself going back to this game. Thank you so much for making this. This wins the award for the best hidden gem for the SNES
