Zol's Toilet Quest Released - Page 5

Bell · #61 12-03-2010, 06:58 PM

Trouts aside, they weren't much help. I did the quest. I agree that the rats can be annoying after awhile. There's just a few too many of them in some levels, on some occasions they seemed to be smelling my presence at the door and nail me as I walked in. I didn't get stuck anywhere for long although I also never got the rat boss killed yet cause I ran out of time to be able to play. I'll get the evil munchmaster later. The rats that were put in there to help ended up causing me to die since I was so busy staying ahead of the fat rat I wouldn't notice the little tards and trip over them. Hence causing me to lose a bit of flesh by fatso and children life untimely death. Good thing I'm a vampire and heal.

I'm really not bothered by the fact that when you die you have to walk back. The respawn point isn't that far away and I actually had an occasion or two that it helped me get my bearings back as to where I was and needed to go by dying. The fact it had a save spot outside the rat boss room seemed to me to be the most beneficial since I am so expert at dying.

While my intent was to go through the quest entirely unaided, things didn't quite work out that way. Thanks to Jesus Freak and Racil for their help. While I did make some ban threats to Racil and Thor and I'm sure the swear log caught a choice word or two overall I give the quest a thumbs up. It may not be exactly like Zelda quests but this is Classic not Zelda. It should have its own signature instead of the label of Zelda clone.

I love classic; but that's completely insane. I'd have never found that out, making me glad I haven't tried the quest yet.

A true gamer will do the quest. If for no other reason than 'because they can.' Its the right of passage to manhood you know.

I love you too Crono, but our future is grim since my pixels are fading and without e-children our genes will have no chance of conquering the intraweb.

everything about it is annoying - the lighting is crap on this cheap TN panel monitor im using, the rats are annoying and combo you down easily if you're not being careful (they also seem to love door laming me or so it feels like), and there's no sense of direction.

the boss is incredibly boring. at first you wanna mash it then realize it doesnt get hurt so you run around until it gets tired. oh look it's that boss again. after a while you just wanna rush it but it never seems to get tired when it changes directions so the only challenge in this fight is to pace yourself so the rat only faces one direction. the fight itself doesn't even make sense, you do damage by slashing it's tail/butt? a fur rat can't be damaged by your sword while you massacre fellow human beings and baddies with it?

the quest itself looks good but on the gameplay side of things is quite boring and dull.

its a game you want it to be as real as possible?

I know I'm not online as much as Laura, but I'll have to agree with her when she says that iPhone players are remarkably smarter than "traditional" Graal players. I get requests from time to time, but none of the stupid questions come from the iPhone players (aside from them asking to be admin, i tell them yeah sure). Most of the stupid questions come from groups of players from other servers that are trying to "blow through this quest" or older players that are just poking around because they're curious and don't really care. I typically ignore both of them. Also, I have yet to have anyone come to me because they were stuck on the pot (...no pun intended. Lol Zol's toilet).

As for walktrouts, I don't think the FAQ Team will be doing any kind of walkthrough for Classic quests in the future. What we learned last time is that they kind of take away from the exploration part of the server that makes it an actual game. Classic is actually in excellent shape compared to most other servers ironically, IMHO Thor has done a very excellent job thus far and I hope the trend continues.

Don't get your panties in a bunch, I was teasing you!

Well there will be no official walkthroughs posted by Classic staff. If you want to make one then you're more than welcome but I am of the opinion that they take more than they give.

@Bell: I know you were but since I pretty much never post on these forums I figured I'd make a semi-serious post for once. Also, commando all the way.

The reason everyone defaults to walkthroughs is because the quests are boring and full of suck. Make them fun and nobody will prefer a wall of text telling them what to do over experiencing it.

Not everyone feels this way. Hence why there are different types of gameplay on various games. Some enjoy the grind of leveling up while others find questing to be fun and challenging. In Graal's case it equates to different types of servers. You obviously are not a Zelda addict but sales of said game prove that many out there are.
