NEStalgia - NES Style MORPG

Neil79 · 23 Feb 2011 at 16:58

NEStalgia is an original MORPG inspired by the glory days of traditional console RPGs. Essentially "Dragon Warrior 3 meets World of Warcraft", NEStalgia is an amalgam of the best generations of RPG gaming.
Wage classic turn based battles using a multiplayer party system, and enjoy modern trappings such as a full-featured quest system and hordes of epic loot to find. We even have a WoW-style Auction House for item trading!

Sounds good. I'm on the newish server they're spamming for us newbies. I'll let you know once I settle on a character class.

Signed up, Neil79

EDIT : Terrible Terrible lag, it's taking me an age just to walk a square. Lots of lag complaints on the chat, they are getting flooded with new members lol

Hahah, loved the little trailer. Could be interesting

Edit: Yeah see what you mean about lag. Just saw a 'purple' from the makers coming apologising for the lag; that it was due to the sudden rise in logins (people seemed to be verifying this on one server as they were saying there'd been tons of people on before with no lag) and they'd be sorting out new servers to offset the load.
Still, looks interesting. Just wish you could 'up the res' very slightly on the menus

Looks ****ing epic.

Neil79 · 24 Feb 2011 at 02:00

Well i've kept it, would be awesome to play a nes style rpg with other players!

Goodnight ocuk

Soldier the best tanking class?

Can't not give this a go

Macky · 24 Feb 2011 at 15:07

Come on Kaldan. It's what I'm on. My name is Furbles.

Alexrose1uk · 24 Feb 2011 at 15:56

On Kaldan too, Palad....errr....Cleric

D) named Tyranuus

Decided to remake him to 'look closer' to my old WoW Paladin. Hopefully once the initial rush wears off servers will become more responsive.

I'm playing as a woman warrior , SHELA

Macky · 24 Feb 2011 at 17:34

Rolling with a party in the game is epic. I'm rolling with another soldier and a ranger who can heal.

Macky · 25 Feb 2011 at 19:45

Lag is getting fixed today within the next hour.

Added to favourites under "Cool Stuff", returning tommorow after work to download and try it out, cheers!

Anyone still playing this? I remember trying to get on a while ago but couldn't connect but I think it was because I didn't have the latest version of BYOND. Yeah, so, has this gone downhill or what?

Neil79 · 26 May 2011 at 20:53

I thought it sucked, kept on being killed by a rat after having to talk to a guy and get past that ice puzzle again. Bored

FrenchTart · 26 May 2011 at 21:27

I got distracted and never gave this a proper try. The idea behind it was awesome though, I thought.

Macky · 20 Aug 2011 at 22:36

Just started playing this again. If anyone wants to join me, I'm playing a cleric on the 'Algol' server. Furb is the name.
