| starcraft said: I've never heard of Dark Cloud. Was it really a Zelda knock-off? A good knock-off or a bad one? If its any good it could be something to look into when I get a PS3 (a prospect that is back on the horizon now we know Versus is still being developed). Now all I need is Heavy Rain to have a kick-ass showing at E3. |
It was compared to Zelda back when it came out, but in reality it is nothing like Zelda. The combat and movements are far more restrictive, but there is a really nice weapons upgrade system (weapons "evolve" much like Pokemon, and you can combine different weapons of a similar type, iirc), and the power to rebuild cities as you saw fit was pretty cool. The puzzles, if you want to call them puzzles, consist of nothing more than picking the right character to hit the right switch.
I've never played DC2, though.
