The Dungeon Crawler Thread

[Necromancer]

Laplace No Ma, Death Bringer are other dungeon crawlers. There are quite a few in japanese unfortunately.

How playable is Laplace No Ma for a dipshit like me that can't figure out moon runes to save his life, or is it good enough to bother with?

Laplace No Ma is excellente'.

You can trial/error the menus easily and get yourself situated and succeed at it.   

It's not a very complex game either.  Plus, it's motherf*ckin creepy.

Man!!  I gotta get me those Wizardry games for the Duo.    I love MM III for it.  Hated OoTg tho... And China Warrior is a big turd......just kidding...

I guess it's not that hard to figure out but as I understand japanese, my opinion is a littel bit biased. You can create a fair amount of characters and have to choose 4 of them. You have several classes such as scientist, journalist or detective, depending what skills you choose to develop. I haven't played too far in the game but I thought it was cool and I liked the fact that you were in a haunted mansion rather than in a dungeon.

That "bad" review of Might and Magic makes me want to play it more. It seems like the lack of customization would make it a nice game to just jump into.

I completely forgot I owned Laplace No Ma. Gonna give that one a spin (finally) now.

It's bad if you take it as an enhanced M&M 1.   

I think the only part that really does suck, is the lightning bow incident.

I havent played the earlier dungeon crawlers as much as slme of you guys. I derped around with ultima 1-4 on my atari 800 as well as zork 1 and 2.  Those games came in a big lot of atari stuff my dad bought years ago.

The games Ive played a ton of are Might and Magic 6-8.  Ive only done 8 once but 6 and 7 ive gone through at least 4 times each since they were new.

I have no idea what a lightening bow is supposed to do, so I guess I won't miss it .

I just played Laplace No Ma for a few hours, and it's pretty cool. I'm good on the Japanese part, but still figuring out the weapons and stuff. It's pretty cool.

It provides you with a great way to f*ck shit up. 

I *think* Amuru could use it (I think Paladins can use bows too)

Though, why you'd want to do something like that is beyond me, because that would make him blow. 

I haven't played M&M1 for DOS in a loooooooong time, but IIRC, Knights and Pallies can use bows...

but have to be placed in the back rank...

which means your wizards are in the front

and that would be retardy.

I may go experiment with this shit later today.  It's been awhile since I explored the DOS Secrets of the Inner Sanctum!
