Is Dark Cloud worth it?

I played a demo way back when the game was out....

And i liked it,but i never got the game.

Is it good?

i would say so. It may be a bit repetitive in some respects, but there is just something very charming about that game.

I rented it when it first came out and I remember not being very impressed, but that was a long time ago and my opinion could be way different now. I'd so go for it, it's not a very valuable game, so if you don't like it your out maybe $5 or so. You can always resell it to.

Well I personally didn't like it. I hated the character design. But a lot of people do like the game.

The weapon customization is sort of fun, but also somewhat tedious.... the combat isn't anything special, the story is "Tuesday Morning Cartoon" quality, dungeon crawling is somewhat interesting, but the main draw for me was the Village building and customization. The game is basically Sony's attempt to copy Zelda and a couple of other games, but they didn't get it just right. That said I did enjoy the game as a kid, but when I recently bought it I began to notice it's flaws.

Thought it was pretty good :D There be one or two odd problems with it but can easily be sorted if you know what your doing and what lies ahead in dungeons and during bosses.

The first Dark Cloud was a very underrated game. I was pleasantly surprised by the gameplay. It came out around the time of Wind Waker iirc, so this game was kinda lost in the shuffle which is a shame considering DC was much better.

It was a fun game, in doses. It can get EXTREMELY repetitive in terms of gameplay, with repetitive enemies, locations, attacks, etc.

The thing that keeps you going is the weapon customization though. That's where the game shines. I had so much fun playing around with my weapons, making each of my characters into a unique little badass. Also, the town building portion was so addicting. I had to get it JUST right or else I'd redo the entire town. :P

But yeah, if it's like 5 dollars, go for it. It's definitely worth that. I'd say it's a solid 6.5 or 7 in my book.

I used to have it. The game is pretty good, but the randomly generated dungeons get to be a drag. It's decent, but I wouldn't consider it amazing. I just checked the prices on ebay and it's pretty cheap. Go ahead and give it a go if you're interested.

Yes, fun game. I finally beat it over the summer. The city creation is suprising fun and somewhat deep. Having to talk to the residents to find where their homes should be adds a little bit of puzzle to the game as well.

Actually it came out 2 years befor that.

I preferred Dark Cloud 2. I thought Dark Cloud was too frustrating.

Totally worth it. It's one of the most nostalgic games I've ever played. It's a great RPG aswell.
