Current Events > phantasy star 3

(+) Yeah! (+)

itt ill be playing phantasy star 3. there will be spoilers from me, but no spoilers allowed. i will play the game at variable rates, minimum 5 minutes per day. i will complete the game and often wax poetic.

so far i have found mieu, the cyborg anime. she's been equipped with 2x claws and we are grinding outside the city.

with a cyborg in my party, the boat man allows us to go to the island. we've made one trip into the cave so far, and mieu died.

back to town. we have no money.

Wow, even back in the 90s games were striving for realism u_u

I had that game (well more like my older brother had it) when we first got our Genesis. But I didn't understand how to play rpgs back then. I dont think I ever saw anything past the opening cutscene with the wedding and the bride getting kidnapped

how in the hell does i restore tech points?

edit: got it.

Should be able to at an inn

thanks! i thought i had gone to the inn but i had not gone to the inn!

Legitimately one of my favorite RPGs ever. Most people love 4 the most but it was always this one for me. I played it in high school when it came out and I remember it being like $74.99 on release. It was more than other Genesis games. Had an absolute blast with it though. Really takes me back to my mid teens. Good memories.

phantasy star 1 is really my jam more than anything. a badass chick as the hero. but she's still looking good in a miniskirt and white leather boots. guns, sci-fi, and a morgue.

i was, as dante said, in a "dark wood" circa 2011. i put down everything for 3 days and just played through the entire game from my bed. i moved my bigass CRTV into the bedroom and played it on the Wii VC, made me forget my problems and afterwards i just picked up the pieces and kept going.

later that year, after everything was much better, i played through phantasy star 2, and that was just pure fun and amazing.

but i tend to prefer the bittersweet, if not just the purely bitter. phantasy star one literally made me nauseated to play (1st person motion sickness) at times but it's still my favorite.

i also bought phantasy star 3 on the VC, but i never finished it.

im here to fix that.
