DOS Time Travel - Role Playing Games (RPGs)
A look at DOS RPGs in perspective of time, and through a prism of interesting but not necessarily the best or most popular games. So, kinda take on the state of the genre without leaning on the biggest and most well known hits that everyone expects to hear about in videos like this one.

Firstly and mostly, thank you for clueing us all in, amazing but I don't have the bandwidth or space of nearly 1tb of mostly all the DOS games. Went with the 5gb one, and I can't seem to play a single game at this rate because I can't stop looking at the and reading more indepth than I ever have on the games I got from TAC auctions back in the day, and Home Of The Underdogs. Clearly, the best DOS frontend known to mankind, or not, the best known to this man!

    Ooh, nice games! You say these are not the most popular? They all have something interesting going for them. I've never imported a character or party to any game. Are they often fully "leveled up" characters or can they also start from scratch (loincloth, club and grow leg hair potion recipe only)? I think my gravestone will say "she's not here". As in, no need to come visit my grave, since there's nothing there that is "me". I had a great uncle who wrote little poems for gravestones. He did one for himself too. Oh. Now I understand the story behind the character named Sir Poopy Pants. Poor guy... Someone give him a nice cup of tea. Pst. Do you know how to get the recipe for that "unsmell my feel" potion? :D

    • @OldAndNewVideoGames
      @OldAndNewVideoGames 9 годин тому

      Oh, they are definitely not bad. Not saying that. They're just not the A-Team members for their respective years in the genre. They're the median choices. And average for their genres. Back then, actually many RPGs that were series allowed you to move your party between them, and more often than not, they moved with all they had. Sometimes something was missing, like an uber strong item or something, but generally speaking it was a common practice. I like the "she's not here" thing. Makes sense, on many levels. Unsmell my feet potion? It's actually pretty easy, though it's not a potion per say, but balm actually. You take one part soap or shower gel and nine parts water, mix, place on smelly feet and rub in energetically for a minute or two, rinse and the smell should be gone. If necessary repeat until the effect persists.

I'm just surprised they're not more popular. :) Oh, so the option to import old characters is kind of an option to cheat at the game. :D And to get games in the same series. Sneaky. ;) Actually, I say (internally) "he/she isn't here" when I have to visit any grave. I'd rather honour a person's memory than their gravestone. Oh. Wow. Yup. Soap and water balm for smelly feet. You are so right! XD And it's so simple! I'll go make some right now.

      Lands of Lore is in many of my former videos, one of my last few "Essential DOS Games" too. This one's, as I mention in the intro, is part of the series that look at particular years of DOS gaming (89-97) through a perspective of B-listers in a particular genre. So, no number one's or two's in the video. I've other ones for these hits. :) And yeah, I think everyone who played the game hated fairies. xD

I remember that at some point you would get some tools like screwdrivers but they all looked lightsabers. there was a section that had a desert with a mirage that you could click to walk towards it but you would never reach . and there was a place with trees with fruits of different colors and shapes and there was some puzzle I could never solve with it. I don't remember the game name. Can you help?

    Bloodwych is unknown to me. Looks interesting for ‘89 though. I’m a bit confused by the aspect ratio of the footage here? Looks like it’s ultra wide? 8:12 certainly looks like Arnie? From his Mr. Universe days. Ah yes, remember when game devs didn’t care about copyright & just used any image or especially audio they wanted? Barbarian, on the Amiga at least, used a bunch of sound clips taken from the movie adaptation of Red Sonja. 😄 I don’t know Darklands & it’s kind of ugly for a game you speak highly of? Superhero League of Hoboken does look original & unique? I do know Stonekeep because of the 3D 1st person navigation but I never got in to it. Speaking of 3D navigation Shadows Over Riva did it better but I just couldn’t get in to the non 1st person parts. I do know of Amulets & Armour & it was well thought through but again (& yes I know this is just me) I just couldn’t get in to it, even though I love the Elder Scrolls games. Well I think you knew this wasn’t going to be my video but I appreciate you educating me on these games, thanks.

    • @OldAndNewVideoGames
      @OldAndNewVideoGames 9 годин тому

      Brace yourself! It's not widescreen at all. Bloodwych could be played in local co-op, and then each of the players would get that wide screen, one on top of another on a single monitor. So, when you played alone, you only got one. Darklands is the best game you've not played. If you're into RPGs. This one's text heavy so not sure if you'd enjoy it, but it's sooooo worth the time and effort. It's really a hidden gem, and arguably the best game in the video. Yeah, I kinda figured RPGs are not your cup of tea. But the next one will be turn based strategies, and I've even more B Team of games there than here. And one after point'n'click adventure B-listers and after that (this one's not confirmed yet, though I have a list of games already) pinballs. So, I'm sure something will land for you. :)

    While you're correct about the rough translation of "Das Schwarze Auge", there's actually an official translation of the title for video games and pen and paper games: The Dark Eye.

      I recently learned that in the company I work for (which belongs to an older married couple), and employs something like 60+ people, there's no one in the HR (single person department btw) that harassment could be reported to. Not that I was planning on doing it, but I enjoy finding holes in logic and operational algorithms, and they told me that if anything happened, I should go to the police. Which is just ridiculous. xD

    Holy childhood! Love this. Started learning to use dos as a little kid (born in 85) thanks to my dad’s job….i was able to navigate the shell pretty well & was able to use the command prompts to run games on floppy’s. Thank you for this flash back memory

      Thanks for watching and I'm glad that you liked it! I've many more higher quality DOS videos now, so if you liked this one, I'm sure you'll like the newer ones. Like Obscure DOS Games series. Available as 50 singular episodes, or as 5 bigger "full seasons" videos, and also all rolled into one, as a close to 16-hour long behemot. ;)

      There are games released for it now even. I mean freeware hobbyist releases and they're very rare, but there are. I'd consider 1997 as it's last good year, 1998 was more of a compilation/gold versions year, and in 1999 no one cared for it anymore.

    RPG’s on PC vs RPG’s on console. Its fun to see what different playstyles was popular on the exact same genre. On one hand we have nes, snes and Sega etc that had the style like final fantasy, breath of fire, dragon quest, chronotrigger etc. Top down strategy rpg’s And on PC we have these games that you just showcased, FPS. Most of the time RTS games. The RPG genre is one i never really spent time on. On a seperate note. Was it eligal for adventures to wear clothes in “spirit of adventure”?

      I've a separate best RPGs or something like that video (or videos, I've done so many I honestly don't remember), that shows off some of the best games in the genre. This series looks at interesting ones, often pretty darn good, but not the very best. So, if you're keen on best of the best, check those other videos out. Also, yeah, consoles and PC banked on entirely different kind of an RPG. And it makes it all so interesting. I should really get into Genesis/SNES at some point. Oh, and all adventurers have it in their contracts. There's a separate clause for clothes or not clothes. They just gotta read the small print.

    Really nice games in this one! Oh! And one I actually played back in the day, albeit on PC. Grand Prix Circuit. I was too used to arcade racers with indestructible cars, that the crashes were pretty shocking at first. Did the characters in Might and Magic 2 die of old age waiting for the player to complete the game? :D Ouch! I'm glad most games aren't like that. :S

      There's more games like it. You can actually start with a party of grandpas in Darklands, as you can add age (and experience) to your characters at party creation, which calls for a certain balance between skill, strength and age.
