Quest 64: Who remembers this PIECE?



Did anyone actually play this? And if so, did you ever play it again? I remember getting this when it came out and being pretty excited. I guess it kept me busy for a while, but the game was SO linear. After beating it, and being more pissed at its ending than any other game's, I put it away. The thing has NO replay value.

The story was pretty intriguing though, for me at least. You're a magician's apprentice assigned the task of tracking down your missing father and a mysterious book of magic. Throughout the game, I enjoyed the implication that you were always a couple of steps behind him the whole time (a la FF7, but having played Quest first I'm more inclined to be reminded of this game than FF7).

I also liked the levelling-up system, which followed the "the more you use, the better you are at it" policy. This went for HP and MP too. For some reason I prefer this system over the more widespread method of experience points.

Quest 64 is just old enough to inspire some nostalgia.





So. Did anyone play it? Did anyone like it? Overall just about every possible plot point ends up being an utter disappointment.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Here is a smaller version for those with absolutely no eyesight:


This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

How much of the music have you ripped? Just the overworld track? I'm actually kind of interested in a complete rip of the game's music.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I love how they changed the friggin' title of the game for PAL. Until now I didn't know that. I did grab cubed's rip and actually listen to it from time to time; brings back the memories.

How ya doing, buddy?

Pronouncing your username aloud is quite amusing.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?
