I believe the first FF game in Europe was Mystic Quest! Loved the video! Can't wait for a Dream Daddy Bitscast!

That’s insane, but I think you’re correct! Cause I remember lots of PAL folk being VERY nostalgic of it (despite it being just OK, IMO).

The last few pre-Holy Ark games imply Darkness is the ending of the series, but the actual fun comes from how they imply it, so don't worry about being spoiled. Darkness has some weird name changes. Thornwood is Stormsong/Stormsang and is referenced as such in later games. "Dark Sol" is called Mephisto in Japanese, which makes things a lot less confusing. I'd really recommend checking out some Climax games when you get the chance like Landstalker, Dark Savior and Time Stalkers (Pyra's a playable character here) as well as MAX's FEDA: Emblem of Justice, since a lot of the developers on Shining Force 1 worked on these projects. Also, when you get the chance, check out the GBA remake of 1: it brought back the original lead writer to flesh the story out and adds a lot of player customization options + difficulty scaling.

Darkness is the ending?!?! I guess that would make sense, especially given the "spoiler" that I read about Shining Force Gaiden III. In regards to the translations - I actually read about those after recording this and yes, makes it MUCH less confusing. Bad translations can really ruin things. For example: I think when I finally get to Breath of Fire 2 I'll probably use the translation hack, because I heard the localization was brutal. Rather not be confused/unimpressed when gaming haha. Landstalker is 100% on my radar! I also recently purchased Dark Savior since I saw that it was Climax. I've actually never heard of Time Stalkers at all (I will look it up after typing this - super interesting that Pyra is playable). I have a reproduction cart of FEDA from years ago, I actually got it since it looked like Shining Force haha. Just never got around to playing it. And I'll be honest: I always avoided the GBA remake because I'm a curmudgeon (Shining Force is probably in my top 3 all-time favorite games). But I've seen a lot of recommendations for it, so I do plan to get around to it at some point. I snagged a CIB copy for a reasonable price about 2 years ago. Thanks for watching & commenting. Love discussing stuff like this! EDIT: OHHHHH! TIME STALKERS! Funny story. I ALMOST bought that earlier this year, but I passed. The reason I almost bought it was because I thought it looked cool - hilarious how Climax made it. It's like I'm drawn to the style/games without knowing haha.

I gotta check out that book on the RPG's you mentioned! Shining in the Darkness I have a lot of good memories of playing on the Genesis I remember playing it a lot back in the day. If you get a chance try out Shining the Holy Ark from the same devs on the Sega Saturn! It is extremely good and if you had fun with Shining in the Darkness you'll likely really enjoy Shining the Holy Ark!

The book is amazing, I highly recommend it! And definitely, Holy Ark (and Wisdom, SF3 Scenario II and III are still on my list to get to)!

I have a question it's a DLC boss in Dark Souls did you ever beat that dragon he has a one hit kill if you don't have the right bill I don't know if it's fire or if it's laser did you ever beat him I don't know the name of the dragon boss but you played more Dark Souls games than me so maybe you know

I think that’s Dark Eater Midir from Dark Souls 3? He has a laser attack. I did beat him! Normally and at Soul Level 1
