Well, I just finished (I think) Book I on pce. I am in the tower now so I am guessing that is the start of Book II? Anyway, the game thus far has been a complete and utter delight. I admit that I had my reservations about the so-called 'bump' thing being potentially not fun/silly, but once I got into the swing of things the game just kind of...I dunno, flows, for want of a better word. Needless to say, I have been having a blast with it! Also, shout-out to kidpanda from ng.com for helping me score the silver sword before I moved on to Book II lol. I never would have found the damned thing otherwise (not using walkthroughs or anything). Thanks man!

I think IV was the best and one of the top 5 best pce games ever. I also really enjoyed III a bunch, especially the music. I+II were really rad but I got bored with the repetitious style of the caves and the extremely long fortress at the end was just dragging for me. I dont know what to play next though since I'd like to continue with the series. Play Ys VI on PS2. It's glorious.

Much better graphics, no horrible load times, awesome anime style intro instead of the CG shitty rendered intro, and the original Adol sprite. Konami really screwed the pooch with the PS2 port.
Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).

I just felt in a hole!
