      @kirbyjoe7484 24 дня назад

      @@streeTkiDwannaBe Hydlide is a 40 year old game that predates even the NA release of the NES. Without it games like Zelda and the Y series wouldn't even exist. Hydlide is a big part of the reason ARPGs as a genre exist as they do today. People don't seem to understand just how ancient this game is. It was released in 1984 and predates even the first Dragon Warrior.
      The reason it has such a bad reputation in the west is it was released half a decade later here, after many of the more advanced games it inspired were already on the market. Of course Hydlide is going to look awful you have already played the better games it paved the way for such as Zelda.
      I don't think people who weren't alive back then have any clue how vast a gap five years in video game development was back in the early days. To put it in perspective, Hydlide was developed and originally released in Japan back when, here in the west, all we had was Atari games. It is an Atari era game.
      Sure, it doesn't hold up well now, or even back in the late 80s when it was released in the west, but it does not change the fact it was an important groundbreaking game in its day. It is just so much older than most people realize.

      @dqroto8681 3 года назад +2

      I really hope he plays this one someday. Hydlide 2 is the ultimate Hydlide challenge, it's harder than Hydlide 1 and 3 combined, no joke. One of the hardest games I've ever beaten. The required amount of grinding is insane (again, much more than 1 and 3) and you always feel underpowered. Even after grinding to the maximum stats, most enemies may still kill you in a matter of seconds. It's even more cryptic than the other two games, not to mention you can basically softlock the game if you use some specific items in wrong places. The MSX version is available in English and it has some useful bugs (for example, when you start the game, before you buy any items or equipment, keep killing the ghoul enemies in the graveyard until one drops a black crystal, take it, enter the shop and try selling an item you don't have (from an empty inventory space) while holding the black crystal and you'll earn 30000 gold) but still hard as hell nonetheless, you'll need waaaay more than just 30000 gold to beat this game. The original PC-88 version seems to be a bit easier but it has no in-game music, although the graphics and gameplay are way better than the MSX one. It's probably the best version (well... "best" isn't probably the right word) but it's in Japanese only, and since it's a pain to emulate, he should just play the MSX one instead. But again, this game is absolutely unforgiving. I don't hate it though, but that's just because I love archaic computer games so I'm already used to most of the issues I've mentioned, so I ended up liking the Hydlide games. I would certainly hate them otherwise.

      Does anyone here know Fairune? It's more of a Puzzle RPG where you find items to use them to solve puzzles and "battle" monsters (actually just run over them) of your level or slightly higher to gain exp and be able to battle stronger monsters. This game also did the thing of the "Looping Toroid World", where you exit at the top/left and come out at the bottom/right and vice versa. Fairune is much more enjoyable than Hydlide, despite both games sharing some similarities. It also helps there are more maps to explore, not just an overworld and an underworld, but also an entire lava world, a tower with many levels and a large cloudworld.

    Oh dear lordy this was so much better than seeing the whole thing live. Vlad, you give life to the actually-tormenting. Thanks!
    Poor Jared, when will he escape the black hole vortex of Hydlide? Not in 2020, that's for damn sure.

    Hydlide has somehow mind controlled Jared. At least now he can say he's the top Hydlide streamer, especially if he does Space Memories and the 3D remake.
