#lufia2 — Public Fediverse posts

Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #lufia2, aggregated by home.social.

  1. Finished #Lufia2 last night. Loved the unconventional dungeon designs, the overall pacing, the music and that ending in particular. It has soul and it's a classic for a good reason.

  2. Paused my #Lufia2 playthrough to give the #TrailsInTheSky1st demo a spin. It's really impressive in every regard and I hope it'll do well.

  3. Started playing #Lufia2: #RiseOfTheSinistrals again, this time with the #FrueLufia patch. :)

    It'll probably take a while before I get to the Ancient Cave though.

  5. Watched a #speedrun of #Lufia 2: Rise of the Sinistrals for the #SNES in the Iris% category, where they have to collect all the Iris Treasures from the Ancient Cave in that game.
    Definitely makes me itch to play that game again, though this time with some patches such as a retranslation and restoration of censored graphics (religious icons for example were removed from the North American release). Probably the #FrueLufia one.
    But it'll definitely be on an emulator where I can use savestates or rewind... the Ancient Cave can be brutal, and after getting a total party wipeout on a fully healed team without a chance to heal or hit back many years ago, I don't think I've attempted it again...
    (You basically get reset back to level 1 and lose all your equipment for the duration of the run, and only get to use equipment you found in blue chests in previous runs (and took out of the cave by finishing the cave, or by using an escape item you can find from floor 20 or up).)

  6. I'll probably try to play some more of the #NDS version of #Lufia #CurseOfTheSinistrals though, just to see if the actual storyline and puzzles are decent, but I have the feeling I'll instead give the original #Lufia2 another go again, perhaps with a modern retranslation and bugfix patch of top of #Estpolis2.

  7. Played some #Lufia #CurseOfTheSinistrals on the #NintendoDS earlier. I was hoping for a bit modern version of #Lufia2 #RiseOfTheSinistrals, but the first half hour or so was a rather disappointing experience. It has a completely different mood to it. Not just because the typical #SNES era top-down #RPG perspective has been replaced by a 3D-ish one, and turn based combat is now an active #actionRPG one, but the whole story and characters feel different. It feels dumbed down...

  8. @kelbot @ajroach42
    I also should pick up the #Lufia (or rather, #Lufia2) remake for the DS at some point, and finish #ChronoTrigger.

  9. @greyor I can highly recommend:
    #Lufia 2 (please play this one before #Lufia1, as #Lufia2 is a prequel, and starts with a major spoiler for Lufia 2's ending… Also, try to avoid the NA release, as it contains some annoying bugs…)
    #SecretOfMana
    #SecretOfEvermore

    And while I still haven't played it myself, my wife really enjoyed #BahamutLagoon
