Game Description:
The third in the extensive series of Farland Story games. It has forty stages in all, making it larger than the previous two games combined. Terrain also plays a part in the game, making a difference whether you're attacked in a forest or on a road. Also, an experience scaling system is in use here, which means you won't get as much experience from killing a level 1 monster as you would from killing the same monster at level 6. Make sense? Of course it does.
In Farland Story 3, you again take control of Arc and his lovable group of friends (including the adorable and badass Arina), and stop a Dark God from arising and taking over all the world, yet again. Honestly, when will these Dark Gods learn?
All those folks like me who suck at strategy RPGs take heart; the game is just as easy as its predecessors. Masters of strategic combat will no doubt look elsewhere.
Translation Description:
This game pretty much demands being installed on a hard drive, due to the insane amount of disk changing you have to do otherwise. If you don't know how, BTAxis has you covered, with complete instructions on how to install the game to a hard drive, and then to translate it. Be sure and copy the memconfig files, in order to prevent a memory issue in stage 36.
Also, BTAxis has taken the liberty of changing unit stats and placement in the game to make it more difficult. If you don't think you're up to the task, just don't replace any of the STAGE??.UNT files. Simple, right? Oh, and you still need a Japanese font. Nothing new there.
Some names (especially terrain) are shortened a lot, so expect to see stuff like Flr instead of Floor, etc. Other than that kind of thing, the game's completely translated, and looks great! Have fun, kids!
