- Thread starter BLOBERT
- Start date
ALRIGHT BROS SORTA A REVIEW
MM3 IS JUST A FIFUN HAPPY RPG
EVERYTHING IS CHEERFUL FROM MUSIC TOP PORTRITS AND GRAPHICS
DIFFICUTLYY IS DECENT YOU REALLY NEED TO FIGHT TO START OUT IN THE GAME IVE STARTED XEEN AND IT FEELS PISS POOR EASY COMPARED TO IT
EX[PLORATION IS THE FUN PART YOU FIND ALL KINDS OF STAT RAIING FOUNTIANS AND WHAT NOT
MONEY BECOMES A JOKE EVENTUALLY BUT FOR A WHILE YOU HAVE TO SCRAPE SHIT TOGETHER
PUZZLES ARE ALLUIGHT I LIKE LOW DIFFICULTY PUZZLES IN ROPGS PLUS THE FINAL AREAS HAVE ALL THE ANSWERS
THE STORY LOLOLLOLOL KINDA LAME BUT IT TIES INTO THE OTHER ONES BUT REALLY HAD ZERO BEARING ON WHAT YUOU WERE TRYINGH TO DO IN THE GAME I JUST KILLED SHIT AND GOT MORE ITEMS EVEN THE BACKGROUNS STORIES WERENT MUCH HELP
BUFFING IS A HUGE PART OF THE GAME IN FACT THE GAME SEEMS MADE FOR SPEED RUNS THAT YOU CAN EXPLOIT WITH BUFFS TELEPORTS AND SHIT KINDA FUN WHEN I WAS YOUNG PLAYING MM2 BUT MAKE SURE YOU DONT LOOK OVER SPOIKLER MAPS TOO MUCH
ALLL IN ALL VERY FUN MAYBE A FULL REVIEW WHEN I REPLAY XEEN UNLESS XEEEN IS TOO FUCKING LAME ASS EASY AND ANNOYS ME

Fuck, looks like I have to try MM3.
BROS A XEEN REPLAY CANT HAPPEN AND HERE IS WHY
MM3
FIRST TOWN YOU BARELY SCRAPE BY BUBBLEMAN AND RATS RAPE YOU SO YOU FIHGT ORCS AND SHIT AND THEY KILL YOU IF YOU FIGHT MORE THAN A FEW AND THEN YOU DESTROY A LAIR AND GET STRONG ENOUGH TO SURVIVE THREE OR FOUR ENCOUNTERS BEFORE YOU ARE FUCKED
XEEN
SO I CLEAR THE FIRST TOWN MAYBE RESTING A COUPLE OF TIMES AND THEN LEVEL UP AND THEN GO TO THE DWARF MINES KILLING ABOUT EVERYTHGING UNLESS I GET REALLY CARELESS AND LOOKING FORWARD TO 5 MORE LEVELSOF THAT

I THINK THE MAGIC CANDLE IS A GO I BOOTED THE GAME UP ADV MY FUST IMPRESSION IS GOOD

LOLLOLLOL OK BROS MAGIC CANDLE IS TOO MUCH FOR ME NOW
ONE MORE SHOT AT XEEN LOLLOLOL THE REASON I WANT TO DO XEEN SO BAD IS THAT IF I DID A CODEX RETROSPECTIVE THINGIE ITY WOULD BE STUPID TO JUSTY DO 3 BECAUSE 4 AND 5 ARE SO SIMILAR
QUICK MAGIC CANDLE IMPRESSIONS
COOL ULTIMA STYLE KEYWORD QUESTIONS AND TOWENS WITH REAL SCHEDULES
TONS OF LORE
UNIQUE SYSTEM OG PARTY SPLITTING ANF MANAGEMENT
JUST TOTALLL ASS BACJWARDS INTERFACE WHERE TALKING TOI SOMEONE TAKES WAY TO LONG FOR EXAMPLE
FIRST CHANGE PARTY FORMATYION SO THE HI CHARISMA CHARACTER CAN TALK CAUSE THE PARTY TAKES UP ALOT OF SPACE AND YU NEED TO LINE THEM UP
GREET THEM WITH ONE COMMAND
ASK THEM ADVICE AS A SEPERATE COMMAND
THEN EACH KEYWORD TO ASK THEM REQUIRES CONVERSATION TO RESTART
JUST DONT HAVE THE ENERGY FOR IT BUT UI WOULD RECOMMEND THE GAME TO AT LEAST TRY
ALLRIGHT IM GONNA FINISH XEEN NOW BROS I CAN FEEL IT

A Magic Candle and M&M thread? by BLOBERT? and I only notice it now?
I missed you bro
The mines in Clouds are a huge obstacle. They're by far the shittiest part of 3-5 and you're stuck with them as the opener. Once you get past them WOX as a whole becomes MUCH better. I'm glad you stuck it out, IMO WOX is worth replaying even if MM3 is better in some regards. Glad you enjoyed 3 and I look forward to the review.
Magic Candle is a wonderful game, but it is a game that requires patience and careful note-taking. Better to wait until you're in the mood for this, or to play in short bursts, than to try and force yourself and end up reading a walkthrough (DO NOT DO THIS)

BROS I HAVE UNTIED THE WORLDS AND AM GENERALLY A BADASS
SPOILED THE LAST PART BECAUSE I WAS JUST DONE BUT IT WAS FUN WHILE IT LASTED
OVERALL THREE WAS A MUCH BETTER AND TIGHTER EXPERIENCE ALTHOUGH MORE FRUSTRATING WITHOUT GROUP SPELLS AND WORSE INVENTORY MANAGEMENT
4 AND 5 WAS HJUST A SUPER CHEESE ERFEST AT THE END LOLLOLOLOL PLAYER FARTS PLUS FIVE LEVELS LOLLOLOL
MIGHT AND MAGIC 3 AND 4 OVERALL ARE SPECIAL FOR THE EXPLORATIONG AND THE ABILITY TO JUMP AHEAD WITH THE STAT ENHANCING AREAS
ITHINK I CAN RIGHT A BRO RETROBROSPECTIVE ON THEM
DOWNLOADED 6 BUT I MIGHT WAIT A BIT TO GETR INTO IT

If you can stomach making your own maps then you really should, it's a great game and I've endlessly argued in the M&M thread why I think it does some things better than MM2, including overall exploration and dungeon design, which are the 2 major strengths of any M&M anyway.
BROS LOOLLOLOL FEEL BAD I TOTALLT WANT TO POPAMOLE WITH MY NEW LAPTIPO
I HAVE FIGURED I CANT WRITE ANYTHING INTELLIGENT ABOUT MUIGHT AND MAGIC THAT HASNT BEEN SAID BETTER
THREE IS GREAT AND XEEN IS REALLY GOOD
I MIGHT REPLAY PRECURSORS AND REVIEW THAT
