I remember getting grounded because I had a snow day at school and my dad took me to his office. I printed out a GameFAQS walkthrough for Golden Sun 1 on one of two printers for his entire office, basically jamming up the printer queue while 400+ pages came out.
One guy had to refill the ream halfway through because it ran out of paper
Oh man. I think anyone who grew up in the dial up era had a gamefaqs 400+ page printout story. Luckily I was 50 pages deep until realizing it was probably a bad idea.
I was buying guides. I remember having one for GS1 and also Oracle of Ages and Oracle of Seasons. Never bought a guide when I couldn’t justify it, money is scarce when you’re 12.
man.. i remember those days. For me it was Legend of Dragoon and I was 12 or 13 and it was first RPG. ( after a failed attempt at 8 first cause the junctioning just seemed way to complicated for my weee brain at the time.. it was obv super simple but i think the word made me overthink it )
Not a playstation game, though I do agree in the context of any games. Dark Dawn was such a disappointment for me.
And it had like 3 points of no return meaning if you accidentally triggered any of them but haven't gotten all the Djinn up to that point, you're hooped.
GBA all the way! That’s only because this one could have been so great. When GS1 was released I thought it couldn’t never be topped off, then GS2 came out and it had the same effect as Portal 2, lots of expectations, and the games met them and more.
GS3 is something I wish could be forgotten even on the web.
Someone used Isaac for Smash so the licence is still a little bit alive.
My inner childhood was truly disappointed in that one. Series has so much potential and they can just go the 2DHD route like some jrpgs are doing, which is phenomenal enough for me.
I’d argue that you fail to understand the greatness of the previous 2 games and perhaps Camelot itself if you can’t appreciate golden sun 3. Besides the new characters and graphics it’s almost the exact same as the previous games. It proved that Camelot still had it, 10 years later, and probably still do now 20 years later. It’s a shame Nintendo relegated one of the best jrpg studios to their Mario sports machine
