Are these any good as games? Never played them... I'm thinking about playing... Any begginer tips?
Unkillable Cat said:But if you're looking for horror, Veil of Darkness may be closer to what you're looking for. It's an isometric adventure game that uses the AD&D system for combat, but most of that game involves finding the proper weapons to deal with the enemies you encounter.
Fixed.mondblut said:(level drain is scary no matter how many pixels represent enemies)
mondblut said:And don't listen to these fudgepackers trying to push thinly disguised homoadventure games to you. Elvira and Veil of Darkness, like all "adventure games", are exclusively for fags, and the fact they dare to imitate some "RPG elements" make them only more cock-loving.
This. Well, one of them anyway.mondblut said:(featuring arguably *the* best soundtracks ever to grace an RPG, in particular)

Jaesun said:It is very noticeable. Granted, not many can notice the difference and are not...... musicians with a lot of years of experience. To me, MUNT's emulation is like forks scraped across a blackboard. Some day MUNT will actually sound like a real MT-32. Keep dreaming there SCO.
Until then I will enjoy my music on a real Roland MT-32.
It's one of the more forgettable tunes, I find. Intro theme that Jaesun linked is much better, as is the Cemetary. And while UW musics were indeed awesome, I'd still rate 8's above 7 (don't remember 9's).Unkillable Cat said:I figured you'd link to the Tenebrae city music, as it's the only memorable tune from the whole game. But in terms of music, both Underworld games, Ultima 7 and Ultima 9 did better than Ultima 8.

Not-this.And don't listen to these fudgepackers trying to push thinly disguised homoadventure games to you. Elvira and Veil of Darkness, like all "adventure games", are exclusively for fags, and the fact they dare to imitate some "RPG elements" make them only more cock-loving.
Yes. Lots of fun, puzzles are quite tough and the game's quite large.crazy_dave said:Wow, that Elvira game has gorgeous graphics! Is it really good?
I'm conflicted. Piano on the JV-1080 is awesome, but I like the tubular bells on the CM-500 better. The tone fits the mood much better. Funnily enough, I played them sequentially to a friend who's never played the game (and isn't a musician) and he immediately said "CM-500 bells are better".Jaesun said:It's way better played on a JV-1080 right Sceptic.
