Ys Memoire: The Oath in Felghana

[Akibiyori]

Started playing this. Doing it on Hard and it is certainly noticeable, even compared to Ys Origin on Hard, but I think the boss design of Origin is better than Oath…at least so far, I just finished Illburn Ruins/Lava Zone. The concluding boss doesn’t give you a clear indication of where the panels are going to pop up, so that fight took a long time to get through (maybe it does have a tell to people with better eyes but I didn’t think anything was distinctive, especially in the heat of battle.)

Nice to play through an intense lava area on a night like last - it’s damn cold out right now.

Yeah, yeah, the music is good but I wouldn’t place it above the TG16-CD version and I’d take my favorites from Ys IX and X over these arrangements of Ys III’s music (that’s for all of the deranged Falcom superfans.)

For anyone wondering about how the Switch version performs compared to the PS5 version, the Switch runs at a constant 60 FPS (refreshing after suffering the PC-88 Popful Mail!)
