Message: [QUOTE="Bump'n'Ys, post: 9711, member: 4402"] While I can't say I love the game, I don't hate Hydlide like a lot of people do. It's very simple sure, but for action RPGs in 1984, it's not bad at all. I know some people just probably expected Zelda when they tried it here in the West and were probably very put off by the bump combat, but I would argue you could have done a lot worse on the NES than the port of Hydlide. Outside of one BS puzzle (well, unless the manual happens to give you a tip about it - it's also different in the NES version than in the MSX2 version, which is what I played) and the music ([I]especially[/I] in the MSX2 version), I cannot in good conscience call the game truly bad. I had fun with it. For what it's worth though if I'm going to replay a Hydlide game, it's Super Hydlide. That game rules. Is there a way to get the framerate higher or at least more stable in emulation? I've been curious about the game but the framerate is so bad in spots from what I've seen that I haven't bothered to grab it. From what I understand, the game is a remake of the first game, right?
