I've never played a Slayer's RPG.
Which one is the best to start with?
Transalted only of course I don't speak Japanese.
>>
>>2807380
The only one that has been translated is the SNES one.
I've played all of them to the end, except for Slayers Wonderful. I kind of need to restart that one though.

SNES one is notable for being the only Slayers I've seen were Nagas boobs make sense. (They look like fucking ballons attached to her body in the anime)

People need to start translating PS1 games already.
I'd even donate to a translation team for that. Not much like 1 dollar but still
>>
>>2807386
There's a butt-load of text in them though. The Saturn (they're also available on PS1) SRPGs are borderline VN.

Then there's Wonderful which is PS1 only and more of a classic JRPG (has FF7 style battles too), but that one still has lots of text really.

These two are notable, btw, for Naga meeting up with the rest of the cast.

>>2807396
nah, I just formed that opinion on my own the first time I set my gaze on them.
>>
>>2807386

That Policenauts translation is like the only thing that comes to mind, what is it with PS1 onwards being so supposedly difficult to work with? So many great games are still sitting completely untranslated with not even a hope.

I'm not convinced it's that much more complex, just for the longest time nostalgia was for 2D games like on the SNES/SFC and it's only recently changing.
That's my theory.

I forgot about the PC-98 game. I've yet to beat that one.

This one would probably be pretty easy to translate, disregarding massive amounts of text.
I guess for an original light-novel it's not wierd that the games get text-heavy.

Are you the same guy from /v/ saying this?
Because I am literally on episode two right now.
What I would like is for the PS1 and sega saturn JRPG's to get translated.Including slayers
>>
Trying to get into the Slayers series after finishing the Lodoss OVA and TV show, but it hasn't snagged me yet. Tell you what, though, I'm enjoying the sufami Lodoss rpg a lot more than I thought I would.

Does anyone know how to get the Dragonslave spell for Lina in Slayers Wonderful?

I played that game and finished it using a FAQ, but the FAQ was just a straight path and I'm guessing it missed a lot of things. I know for sure it has to be something special, because you don't get it by leveling like every other spell. There is a combination attack for the Double Dragonslave with Lina and Sylphiel, but no regular Dragonslave for Lina.

There's a route split midway through the game, and at some point I thought maybe that had something to do with getting the spell, but I could only follow the route specified in the FAQ, I tried the other once and couldn't figure what to do. I swear the game is so fucking obscure that I found a play-through on Nico once, and the uploader stopped right at the route split point.

Didn't even know there were Slayers games.
I remember...Nunza, the fish man.

I'm still surprised both Suikogaiden games got translated. True, it was 13 years after release, but better late than never.

You need to learn Japanese instead.

This guy started translating his Slayers Royal playthrough, so it's at least something.
I still can't believe that to this day there's only one Slayers game translated given the popularity of the series in the 90s.
>>
>>2808976
Good thing that didn't exist when I was playing them.

Slayers Royal was the catalyst for me to start learning Japanese for real (as in I'd studied it before, but never tried to play any vidya in Japanese)
