Would love to see Champions Of Norrath on ps4. Wether they have a HD remake or make a completely new game, i would be so happy. Personally this is my favourite dungeon crawler and i still play it regularly and introduce it to other people.
There have been other games like it since then but nothing has really beat that game imo.
Anybody else think the same?
Champions of Norrath is one of my most played PS2 games though. Wanted a Diablo-like console experience, got exactly that. Been through both it and Return to Arms so many times. I don't even think they were objectively that great. Gameplay is repetitive, all of the bosses can be beaten using the same basic strategy, production values pretty low for late PS2 games. Had a lot of fun playing them with friends though.
But Diablo is on consoles now. The Ultimate Evil edition is a really good game. It's scratched the itch for isometric RPGs on consoles for me. If I had a desire for more of them on consoles, I'd rather have a port of Pillars of Eternity or Divinity: Original Sin. There's other developers doing these sort of games today, and they're really good at it.
Played this with my brother when we were younger. Sooo many hours.
TRUE STORY: There's a blunt weapon in the game that has a 3% chance to destroy undead instantly. Lord Vanarhost is a vampire. I said to my brother, "Wouldn't it be funny if this thing worked on bosses?" I proceeded to hit him 3 times before the bonus kicked in and we won the fight.
Also, I only ever put my skill points into blunt weapons. By the end of Return to Arms, I was actually ridiculous with my dual wielding. The only other weapon I used was arrows.
Ah... Memories...
I own a PS1, GBA, GBA SP, Wii (GCN), 360, 3DS, PC (Laptop), Wii U, and PS4.
I used to own a GBC, PS2, and DS Lite
Yep I remember it too in fact a friend od mine and me were just talking about it last night. Not sure how well it did sales wise, so that may rule out a release, besides as someone pointed out Diablo III is on the PS4 which is essentially the same type of game.
