Looking forward to your review of SO1, kurisu! You'll be bound to shed some light on the mystique surrounding this series.
I can absolutely see why neither of the Odysselyas were fully translated, and it's NOT because of the content. The text storage and compression alone are some of the strangest I have seen yet...Has anyone successfully dumped the scripts for these games?[/quote]
It was one of the first RPGs I wanted to work on.
I got as far as decompression (could recreate the data to match a savestate), but when it comes to deciphering the script code, hadn't done it.
I recall still hitting upon scripting issues with Legend of Heroes and Kabuki Rocks. The latter definitely embedded the text within scripting engine code.
kurisu, I'm surprised Dual Orb 1 is a "terrible" game. I played maybe 60%, when considering whether to do anything with Nightcrawler on the game, or so before just getting bored.
As in, it was a rather bland and uninteresting game. (at least from the gameplay, I can speak nothing about the story.)
I think that would only qualify as a "bad" game, or is there something worse?
