    My review in first person perspective

    When I play an RPG, I usually change the name of the primary adventurer to my name and pretend to take on that persona. While you can’t change the name of the main character in Quest 64, my name also happens to be Brian, so isn’t that convenient. Bear with me as I give the rest of my review in first person.

    Oh no! My father’s been kidnapped. I must go save him. Let me leave this undeveloped town full of empty rooms and run down the only road to look for him. This road has many enemies, but they don’t give me too much trouble. Oh no a boss. Oh no, he just killed me in three moves! I thought I was stronger than this. Let me go back down this same road again and fight more enemies until I am strong enough to beat him. Man is this taking forever. Why must I let them hit me over and over again just to raise my defense? I could just avoid their attacks, but that would limit my ability to level up and isn’t that why I am fighting these guys all over again?

    Ok, I made it back to the boss and took him down. Now I can go on to the next town. Wow, this town looks just as underdeveloped and empty as the town I was from! I guess I will keep going down this road. More easy enemies. Another boss that is too difficult for me. I guess I will just rinse, lather, and repeat until I can beat this guy. Man does my life suck. I’m sorry father, I can’t keep doing this. There must be more to life than this terrible quest that I am on. At night, I dream of a rich vibrant world called Hyrule and a girl name Zelda. I have Finally concluded that every Fantasy I have is so much better than this. Father, I wish you the best, but you are on your own. Good-bye cruel world, it was just not to be.

    And with that I died.

      It has Stuff 0

      When I was a child I had a Nintendo 64 and an allowance. When that allowance reached the price of a brand new Nintendo 64 game I would become so excited that I had to buy one straight away. The problem inherent to this is that the Nintendo 64 had no games to actually buy. When I found myself at the store with money in hand and forced to choose between the likes of Iggy's Wreckin' Balls and Bio F.R.E.A.K.S., I opted instead for Quest 64. I had seen ads for it in video game magazines hyping it up ...

      This Game is Awful 0

      Back when I was in college, I had a roommate who owned an N64.  This was the only game console I had, so I played a fair amount of N64 games in general.  Also being a college student I didn't have a whole lot of money, so we tended to play the heck out of any titles we actually pooled our money together to play.  One of my roommates and I were RPG fans, and this was *the* RPG for the N64.  So naturally we jumped when this game came out....  Wow.. I wish we would have pooled our money for a PlayS...
