Ys Origin

please DO NOT play Hugo on your first playthrough, his gameplay is so ass it would ruin your first impression of this amazing game

(transferred a save from another install. for first playthrough im doing yunica on nightmare, about 3/4 done.) I actually left a negative review for Oath In Felghana some years ago, which I've privated now since I don't agree with a good deal of what I said. Part of my negative impression was because I didn't understand something that's also true of this game: LEVELS ARE MANDATORY. This isn't kingdom hearts 2, there's no scaling. If you don't match a bosses level, it might as well be unplayable. Upgrades are also mandatory, weapon ore especially. This game likes to frame mandatory items as rewards off the beaten path.

good
