@rasterman @ChristiJunior OOT (and the rest of the Zelda series) will be total dogshit once you get into the Ys series. Stop listening to these Nintendo peasants.

@xianc78 @rasterman @ChristiJunior I've never played Ys but isn't it an action rpg? That's a different genre, you can't really compare the two. Zelda is action adventure and, at least looking at the gameplay for Ys IX, Zelda is a lot slower and more deliberate with its combat and exploration. I've been interested in playing them for a while though, even downloaded one at some point but just never got around to it. Something about JRPGs just doesn't hook me a whole lot.

@beardalaxy @rasterman @ChristiJunior I know they are two separate genres but they are similar enough. I think Zelda fans would really like Ys, especially the later games.

To me, action-adventures, action RPGs, and metroidvanias are compatible with each other. If you like one genre you would like the other ones as well.

@xianc78 @beardalaxy @ChristiJunior OK, I'll get reading for something that's a mix of Breath of the Wild, Super Metroid and Grim Dawn. Let's fucking go!
@xianc78 @ChristiJunior @beardalaxy I don't know what I'm looking at. Do you have versions of Ys that need to be compiled like some Linux program or something?

@rasterman @ChristiJunior @beardalaxy You were suggesting a game. I told you to make that game yourself, if you want to see it happen. That link was just a link to a multimedia framework which I use to make games.

No, you don't need to compile Ys. Just emulate the PSP version.

@xianc78 @ChristiJunior @beardalaxy Ah. No, I thought you meant Ys was like a blend of genres. I see that wasn't the case. :pepesad:

Yeah, the PSP is the way to go. I'm telling myself it can't be worse than Zelda 1 (abysmal "game").

@rasterman @ChristiJunior @xianc78 zelda 1 was good for its time. You kind of need the manual or a Nintendo power guide to play it though lmao.
