There¡¯s not much that compares to the disappointment I experience when I attempt to have a conversation about a great game I¡¯m playing and get nothing but blank stares in return. Too often I find myself with an amazing little gem of a game that no one in creation has heard of. Why? Searching the Internet shows that nearly every game news runescape accounts site simply has no information about them at all. No hype, no previews. If I¡¯m lucky, there¡¯s a name and an inaccurate release date.
This got me wondering. How many amazing games have been lost to obscurity simply because no one bothered to care or get the word out? Too many. With that in mind, I felt the need to share some of the gems I own that the world has never heard of. These games runescape power leveling deserve far more than the dismissive, innacurate information pages about them.
First is the hilarious Mystery Dungeon-style strategy RPG by my favorite company. Atlus¡¯ Zettai Hero Project: Unlosing Ranger vs Darkdeath Evilman is a satirical superhero story by the same team that created Disgaea. The entire story revolves around the epic final boss runescape gold battle between Absolute Victory Unlosing Ranger and Demon General Darkdeath Evilman, the fate of the world and the superbaby resting on it. Only Unlosing Ranger slept in, is running late¡and is hit by a car, killing him. In his dying breath, he passes the mantle of Unlosing Ranger on to you, Innocent Bystander and the weakest main character in history. Every chapter of training your hero ends with another attempt at beating Darkdeath Evilman which inevitably fails. As the game progresses, the battle sequence for this final fight shifts from the original old school 8-bit RPG up to flashy, fully animated sprites.
Second is¡well, another Atlus game, actually. Despite coverage on some of the larger sites, somehow Cladun: This is an RPG has been missed or overlooked by most gamers. A throwback to classic 8-bit action RPGs, Cladun offers both short dungeon rs gold runs and hours of exploration. It also lets players create their own custom characters and equip them via a unique skill system. In a fun twist, there are 2 entirely seperate sound tracks you can set to play in the background: the basic music or the 8-bit versions of the same tracks.
Third up is Dark Spire, yet anothe Atlus game. Seems to be a trend here. This game is an excercise in patience and masochism, but a must-have for hard core traditional RPG fans. In this first person dungeon crawler, animation is nonexistent, your 4 character created team doesn¡¯t even have portraits and learning to use your stats is a trial and error experiment. You start the game extrememly weak, have as little as 4hp, almost every chest holds horrifying traps, spells are necessary to even see the map of the dungeon, and reviving dead party members is bank breakingly expensive. Dark Spire runescape money is a minimalist but exhilirating game full of unpredictability. It offers a truly free-form experience with not much story and little direction. It even offers both the default gorgeous art style and an alternate black and white wireframe text box style for that true retro experience.
This is just a sampling of the games that have been massively overlooked. While there are many more I could go into, I¡¯ll leave it at this for now. Hopefully, some people will find a great game among these that they never would have otherwise.
