ROM Information
Phantasy Star III - Generations of Doom.bin - NOINTROHack description
This ROM patch changes a lot. It fixes the dialog to make more sense, the text is actually heavily edited and gives more depth to the characters. Most of the equipment has been renamed to fit more to the Phantasy series, and make sense. (Why someone could wear a robe made out of steel, but couldn't wear armor has always been beyond my comprehension.) Equipment has been heavily edited to be weaker than its original, causing enemy battles to be much more complicated. Shops now sell equipment that makes sense for where you are in the game. EXP and MST has been doubled to prevent building up, don't worry, due to equipment edits battles are more complicated. Bosses have been edited to be actual battles on your hands. Draconia has become a "Challenge World" with fearsome enemies, and all 3 towns have a special surprise inside the shops waiting for the players who dare take on the Challenge of Draconia.Screenshots

| Can't marry Maia | Real_Character | 2016-09-09 | Version 1.0 |
I haven't gone through the whole thing, but I like what I see, so far. It's worth a play for the text edits, alone, which are almost a re-translation. The change of the stats weren't noticeable to me, but I hadn't played the game in a long time. All I remember is that the grinding was tedious. This one doesn't seem to be as tedious. Goes well with the color palette improvement hack. edit: I got around to beating this and was disappointed. For one, you can't follow every marriage choice. In the end of the first generation, you can't marry Maia, or the game is unplayable. You have to make the alt choice to the lady you were looking for in the first place? The hack warns you about this but this is a net loss, no matter the improvements. On top of that, a lot of item text seems screwed, which may have been due to combination with another hack, but that's for you to find out. The first flaw is enough for me to not recommend this. | |||
