I dunno what to name my rom hack... It's not really an improvement... It's not really a remake... Here's what it is, and what's up with this post...
What it is:
I fixed the shops for starters... I hated how the shops sell all this random stuff in random locations that make no sense what so ever... In fact it pissed me off greatly, because I'm such a nerd, I will build up to buy that 20,000$ Royal Needle in Generation 1 and pwn the rest of the game np!
I also made it more challenging by not enabling a lot of equipment early game...
I renamed and redid who equips what to be more "Phantasy Star" like... Also to make sense, because... Who the hell is going to wear a cape or a robe made out of steel? You might as well wear armor... AND HOW IS A BOW MADE OUT OF LASERS!? So... Yeah, I renamed stuff to be more suiting to the other 3 games as opposed to just this one...
While you CAN marry Maia, it's heavily ill advised... This hack is made for Nial's generation specifically, because EVERYONE marries Maia... Explore the other part of the game, you haters >:
Enemies give dbl EXP and MST, enemies who gave 1 an 1 now make more sense, bosses give EXP and MST, and various bosses... Well, every boss outside of Lyle has been made stronger to give more of a challenge.
Draconia which is not even touched in Nial's quest, or the third generation has became a "Challenge World"... Filled with horrible monsters stronger than bosses (outside of dark force) who give WONDERFUL EXP and MST, and also find the Nei Equipment that was never given to you in PS3... I always felt if I'm wearin a Nei Sword, I should have a Nei Helmet, Armor, and Boot as well...
What this post is for: I got Chinelle beta testing this... She knows nothing about Phantasy Star games, but she is a huge RPG Game lover, so she's a good candidate... I need to make sure bosses are not TOO hard, and the lack of equipment doesn't make it too hard... I could use one more beta tester if someone is actually interested in beating this old gem again, but... If not, you can sit still and once Chinelle finishes the game, I'll do up the official name for it, and give her credit, and release it.
Obviously this rom hack has been done with Aridia. If anyone feels there is anything I can change before officially releasing it, give me your opinions... Only thing I can do outside of Aridia's capabilities would be hex editing story, script (which aridia has most of anyway) and names. (And names would still need to be 4 characters long...)
