Plays Well With Others: Legend of Xanadu

[blueraven]

Are people still playing this? Or has everyone given up already?

rofl

back to the walkthrough as soon as work subsides. Other than that...

I DO NOT KNOW HUMAIN

[Senshi]

I'm still playing. Little bit at a time.

[Necromancer]

I finished off level four last night and cruised around in the fifth for a while.  What's up with the invisible monsters?

Are people still playing this? Or has everyone given up already?

We've all given up.  Nobody but you is cool enough to play this game.

[Senshi]

The better question is...who voted for this one and is still playing?

Well, I could've told you that.

[Necromancer]

The better question is...who voted for this one and is still playing?

Me, though I changed my vote when everyone said this title wasn't the best idea for our first game.  There was something like 20 votes in that poll, yet there's only 4 or 5 guys playing - DON'T VOTE IF YOU'RE NOT GOING TO PARTICIPATE!

I haven't been on the forums in ages (I hope everybody is doing good!)... this Plays Well idea is something cool & new!
I wasn't around when the voting happened, but i must say Xanadu has always been one of those games i wanted to tackle but due to the language barrier...it just sat on my shelf. Has there been good progress (with the help of BlueRaven's walkthrough) on the game, does anybody know if the farthest player here has even gotten halfway yet? Keep fighting the good fight 

[Necromancer]

... does anybody know if the farthest player here has even gotten halfway yet?

I don't know where the others are at, but I'm about half way through level five.  There's twelve levels, so I'm nearly to the halfway point.... except the twelfth level is a giant tower that surely requires way more play time than the other levels, so I'll say I'm maybe a fourth of the way through.

Keep fighting the good fight 

Heck yeah!

I'm in the second "level".

[Necromancer]

I finished off the sixth world last night and started the seventh (just bought new gear and talked to the first town's people).  Lookin' forward to tackling this stage over the coming weekend.

The sequel is great, but the original is horrid. Falcom really F'ed up on this one. Games should not be a chore to play.

[grahf]

I disagree.
------------------------------------

I think I might join you guys in playing this. I still have my save on my Ten No Koe... I think. If so I think I'm probably close to the end of level 2.

Which part is a chore - not knowing what to do due to the language barrier, the fetch questing, or something else?  In any case, I heartily disagree.  The language barrier isn't Falcom's fault, and it isn't much of a problem with a walkthrough anyhow; and the fetch questing isn't really tedious, at least not when compared to the pointless grinding that's necessary in most similar games.

The appeal of many of the most popular games of today is doing chores.

Give me Xanadu's fetch questing any day over endless, monotonous grinding.
