Secret of Evermore has some great ambient soundtracks. While I don't consider them that memorable they still fit perfectly for the atmosphere.

>a squaresoft snesjrpg didnt get a japanese release

wtf

Secret of Evermore was a great game. I would call it a hidden gem of the SNES. It had an interesting magic system requiring you to actually collect the reagents to use your 'spells' called 'alchemy'.

>24 megs of action
>actually game file is 2mb

what did they mean by this? is the modern encoding allowing all this saving of disk space? Where they lying or referring to something completely different?

Also wanted to say i love the modern rom/emulator world, I spent plenty of money getting games back in the day, so I feel i deserve this and the ease of just getting casual advice and testing things til you find one you like is just amazing. Thanks for the help everyone btw.

7. Pretending Mana is better than Evermore (other than the 2 player)
8. Pretending DKC3 isn't a great game just because of a stupid baby
9. Pretending fighting games were ever worth paying money for during the SNES era (I can't believe we justified paying for copies of SF2 or Mortal Kombat back then. Fucking awful. PS1 era fighting games like Tekken 3 were worth full price though)

Well fuck me sideways, this game is a pleasant surprise so far. I think I'm enjoying it more than both Terranigma and Legend Of Mana.
>Comfy Secret of Mana graphics and gameplay
>Zany story and setting
>Adventure with your doggo
>First weapon is a bone
Thoughts?

Atmosphere: The Action RPG.

>It's not superior or inferior, but it's still pretty good.

Not every time.

Hello, /vr/. Can you recommend me RPGs that don't use the typical Medieval Fantasy/Sci-Fi setting? Something like Secret of Evermore (worlds with different themes), the Mother series (cartoonish setting in the modern times) and Rent A Hero (modern times again, super hero theme) on Mega Drive?

Better than any Seiken Densetsu game.

i ugh in real life every time i remember how fucking infuriating this game was

here's my vote, anyway, i think it has the right mix of infinite grinding potential and pacing. there could be a good AD help section for the market trading where they all have to dress in togas.

From the wiki:
>While the SNES can address 128 Mbit,[a] only 117.75 Mbit are actually available for cartridge use. A fairly normal mapping could easily address up to 95 Mbit of ROM data (48 Mbit at FastROM speed) with 8 Mbit of battery-backed RAM.[3] However, most available memory access controllers only support mappings of up to 32 Mbit. The largest games released (Tales of Phantasia and Star Ocean) contain 48 Mbit of ROM data,[4][5] while the smallest games contain only 2 Mbit.

For ease of reference, 1 megabyte is equal to 8 megabits, making the largest games 6 megabytes and the smallest 0.25 megabytes.

Some games advertised their large data, like Secret of Evermore here, to give an indication of rich graphics or a lengthy quest.

I love this game so much. ;_;

ITT games that are shit
