| jneul said: Folklore is actually a good game, it is often over looked, it is basically a very dark action rpg as i would call it and you go around capturing monsters (forgotten their proper name) using your six axis by shaking it, it's a very nice add on hehe. Just don't expect amazing graphics as it was just a release game lol, although i must for a release game it did do a fairly good job in that department. |
I'm looking out for Folklore too. I downloaded the demo, it was fun and intreresting. It seems the demo is a reasonable representation of the game. I would suggest giving the demo a go before you buy. I doubt I'll be able to find such an old and low selling title new on the shelves, so hopefully I'll be able to find it used somewhere.
All the action takes place in the Netherworld, being the world of the dead, and the monsters you fight are called folk. They are pretty trippy monsters with quirky looks and odd forms of attack. Each new folk you defeat and whose "id" you capture (by using the six axis a bit like jagging for fish) transfers their type of attack (or defence) to you.
