What Gamespot Users have to say about Ys: The Ark of Napishtim
- Rating:8
Aside from its horrific loading times, Ys is a solid RPG, deserving far more credit than it has received.
Sure, I can whine all day about the load times. I could tell you that if you play this game for 25 hours, 20 of that would be gameplay, the 5 left over would be the 'Now Loading' screen, but that seems to be the only thi... Read Full Review

Every bit as good as it should be, but lacking a bit of what it could be.
YS(pronounced "iiiish"): The Ark of Napishtim is the sixth installment in the YS series, and picks up three years after the conclusion of YS V which debuted on the SNES about 14 years ago. So, if you've never h... Read Full Review

Satisfactory installment within the series, it's nice to see the franchise supported and continued
I was very pleased when I learned that Falcom was working on another Ys game, and in doing so keeping a wonderful franchise alive and progressing. Ys Book 1 and 2 for the Turbografx CD is among my five personal favorite ... Read Full Review

The Ark of Napishtim was a short and fun game, but i suggest that you don't buy it.
The reason i say that you should rent it and not buy it is because it was very short. I realized that it was lacking after i started feeling that the game was almost over after my first 4 hours of playing in the day. The... Read Full Review

Amazing storyline....but "Now Loading" screens could be upsetting even for patient people.
First of all, i only played the game for about 3 hours, and died about twice, well i might not be good with these kinds of games but its still enjoyable to play. The gameplay is really good but sometimes i feel that the ... Read Full Review

Now Loading =kill joy...
For me, the game was fun at first, but after seeing the "NOW LOADING" screen for the umpteenth time, it became annoying. The game is not really a pick up and go game unless you are playing the arena mode (don't... Read Full Review

The content of the game certainly did not outweight the many little disapointments. But "NOW LOADING..." says it all.
The Ark of the Napishtim was a promising hack and slash game that fooled you good when looking at the pictures on the back of the box, but It didnt take too long for this game to lose its luster. The loading times get in... Read Full Review
