Yea lol I don’t think modern gamers are ready for how difficult this game is

I was chatting with a buddy about this. In Contra, the difficulty is in reflexes, visual acuity, timing, and memorization. If it's alright, I'm curious what you would consider to be the difficulty of Wizardry I. RPGs are a bit beyond me.

It’s impressive. I can’t wait for people to spend hours making their party to randomly party wipe in the second room on floor 1 due to Random spawn of monsters 3 rows deep

@@SuperGolemio it’s kinda like hardcore arpg. If one of your characters die, that’s it. You can bring the character back to be resurrected but that’s not a 100%. If your party is whipped you can actually send a rescue party to bring the bodies back. In the original version your characters could die of old age. In order to gain magic back and heal without magic you had to stay in the inn and that aged you 1 week. Of course you could stay at the stables but you couldn’t heal that way (you did get your magic back) and it only aged you a day. Aging lessens the chance to revive and if you died of old age you were gone. Like modern souls games there is little to no handholding. You are legitimately terrified to go to the next floor. Not to mention if you use the teleport spell wrong and teleport a mile above the town and fall to your death or teleport into solid rock which is worse lol

@@SuperGolemio at least thats based on actual skill and control..the difficulty of this game is rng bullshit..and even with high stats..stepping onto a trap you probably wont see coming could result in a party wipe...I do see your point though, I do end up playing turn based games for a more chill experience

Samurai and Lords have the highest hp gain. So starting as one lets you ramp up hp fast. Also there is an item that can just turn a thief into a ninja of the current lvl.

I've never played the original but I remember seeing it. I've also never played a game of this style despite always being interested. This game getting a remaster seems like the perfect way to finally play.

Run the maze two fighters One cleric and a mage. You get more experience points to level up your mage.. Once your age can wipe out whole parties get your wizard and thief

Just a note if you're interested... characters of good or evil alignment can have their alignments changed to the opposite based on whether or not you fight friendly groups of monsters. If you continually fight them, eventually a good character will become evil and if evil characters leave them in peace eventually an evil character will become good. Have with this possibility!!!

Also, don't bother save scumming the HP gain on level up. The way HP gain works is your entire hit dice are rerolled and if that HP total is higher than your current max you get that value, else you get +1 HP. So eventually if your HP is lagging behind you will get a big increase on some levels.

what about at charecter creation though!? it matters there IMO......some get like 7hp starting, others get 13hp, I guess you can remake until you get a good roll at starting only perhaps.....

I have to know; is it made in the spirit of "the game should be easier for modern audiences," or does it retain the difficulty of the 80s? I just finished the first part of the Bards Tale Trilogy (with legacy mode enabled) and the fights were so easy I don't think I can play part 2 I'm so bored... Mangar died in one hit and I didn't do any grinding.

The game is running the old Apple II code under the hood. There are a suite of "old school" options that let you tailor the experience. Some make the game easier while others are quality of life improvements. There are also a couple options brought in from the console versions that you can try. One downside for some players is that the bishop bug can't be done, due to how the new UI works.

I can currently complete this game with just one lone cleric in my party. I've done it on the Wizardry versions of SNES, PS1, GBA and also on WonderSwan. I wonder if I'll be able to achieve it in this version as well... but I probably won't have any problems achieving it. I love the way this remake looks, and Wizardry: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord is my favorite classic dungeon crawler.
