[TAS] Genesis Ys III: Wanderers from Ys by The8bitbeast in

[@michaelphelps7603]

good tas man also this game has surprisingly awesome music first time seeing this game

[@gaminggoddess85]

I forgot that Ys 3's "item get" sound is basically Metroid's.

[@ikagura]

gaminggoddess85 yes, but the Metroid 2 item get (the definitive one) was made after the 1st Ys game

[@CoolKirby2000]

They are similar, but as ikagura alluded to, Ys I (June '87) had it before Metroid II (Nov. '91), by over 4 years.

First time I've seen the Genesis version after playing the SNES version to death. I must say I'd rather have played this version to death instead.

[@devildantedd666]

32:20 Damn, even after ost of Oath in Felghana "Sealed Time" sounds pretty good on Genesis!

[@TheCasualSubculturist]

I used to play this... I freakin loved it.

[@sardineboy4528]

Kinda like a snake: "hiss"

[@Heartnet]

"e's" like saying someone named E owned a pair of shoes, and you would say 'those are e's shoes'

[@ikagura]

Heartnet mister E

[@devildantedd666]

No, he composed music only for Ys I&II.

[@eppiox]

What cool music

[@thenonexistinghero]

I'd say most of the SNES version music doesn't come close to being as good as the Genesis version. The sound chip of the Genesis is just much more suited for most of the music this game has (and for rocking tunes in general... also for techno and other music requiring a lot of bass). The Oath of Felghana soundtrack also sounds much closer to the Genesis version.

[@beanbottler]

The TG-16 has the best versions hands down.

[@oldamar9994]

why are there so many linked comments on this video?

[@vanglee84]

how does that amulet glitch work?

[@mendali]

4:08 that's a glitch right? can someone explain how it works? also yeah... great music

[@AnthonyLoPrimo]

Now the glitch I read claims it works before any level up but I think it only works on the first level. But if you use the FINAL blast from the amulet on a screen of enemies that grants you enough exp to level up, it causes you to get max stats (gold, xp, level, etc). I've found it ONLY works with being level one and it doesn't work for anything after. So that means swinging an invisible underpowered "sword" and dodging almost entire 1-hit-kills to get just enough XP to use the amulet 3 times. It sucks. Been trying to incorporate this glitch into a normal speedrun as I've been wanting to run this game.

[@wingedpikpik1787]

Does this have to be played with BizHawk 1.10.0 only? as I'm seeing glitches on 2.8.0 and lower, when it's at the part with the statue, it glitches out.

[@CoolKirby2000]

It might. There have been sync changes since then that tend to break older input files.

[@kguy152000]

How would you pronounce "Ys"?

[@baguete02]

“ease” with an S sound instead of a Z sound

[@ikagura]

kguy152000 "ees"

[@RydiasRevenge]

Wise

[@gregpeloquin6345]

I've hear 'yeez' from other people.

[@CJHElectro]

YIS BAH

[@gaminggoddess85]

And with the exception of Redmont/Sarina's theme, the Genesis soundtrack isn't as good as the SNES one to me. Neither of them beat Oath in Felghana's remixes though.

[@fouskir]

My dude Strongest Foe in MegaDrive ufff

[@AnthonyLoPrimo]

BARF. Nah, to each their own. The SNES has it's own strengths with the sampling capabilities. I'll admit I'm partial to the genesis cause I grew up with that rather than the SNES.
