Topic	Recommend me some NES games
Redmage1987 04/29/17 3:04:34 PM #67:	Alright, so I beat Faxanadu. My overall thoughts about the game... As I said before, the game is very beautiful looking, especially for NES standards. The presentation is also really good with all of the mugshots of characters when you talk to them (even if most of them look depressed, lol), and the cutscenes at the beginning and end of the game were nice as well. The music was good, and a pleasure to listen to as I went through the game. The gameplay was a lot of fun, and it reminded me a lot of Zelda II. I like that you can actually see a visual difference in you character as you buy new weapons and armor, too I do have a few gripes about the game, though: Locked doors stay locked, even after you use a key on them. I feel like locked doors should stay unlocked after you've used a key on them. There were a few times where I had to backtrack to a town because I forgot that I had to use another key to go through a door that I had already been through. Some poor enemy placement. There were a lot of incidents where I was forced to take damage, and most of the time it wasn't THAT big a deal because there were usually enemies that would drop food nearby, but this was still very annoying at times. There were also some screens that had enemies waiting at the side of the area, and so as soon as you enter, you run into them and get knocked back to the previous screen. That was also really annoying at times. Decreased Wing Boots time from Leveling Up. It almost doesn't feel worth it to get your rank up in this game because it doesn't really increase your stats, it just let's you start with more money if you die. I don't really understand why having a higher level should reduce the time that the Wing Boots are active, either. I mean, I didn't really use the boots except for where they were forced, but still. Overall, I really enjoyed this game. I'd give it a 7.5/10. It does have some flaws, but it's still an otherwise fantastic NES game that's definitely worth checking out. --- The Old School Video Game King!! http://www.youtube.com/user/Redmage1987 <cite>Redmage1987 posted [p:878148573] in Recommend ...
