on which game system are you playing this?

[shinreiyhvh]

PSX.

A Wizardry IV movie on YT! Awesome, thank you.

Figured it's the least I could do, since there's pretty much everything from the Llylgamyn and Dark Savant sagas and Wiz 5, but nothing from here. :)

The soundtrack of this game sounds awesome. I wish it had been released on a CD. :<

No fantranslation, but while the spell descriptions and such remain Japanese (which is fine, it's still perfectly playable) most of the text is in English should you so choose. The same goes for the other remakes on the disc, which I think include Wizardry I, II, and III.

I am tempted to do a Wizardry IV LP, but it'd probably be the wireframe DOS version - when recording video for this title on the PSX, it seems to lag badly enough that the game becomes harder. Still, it's a possibility.

@shinreiyhvh I would absolutely love to see a Wizardry IV LP.

Was this version of the game ever totally fan-translated like SNES I-III? I note that there still seems to be some Japanese in this.

[shinreiyhvh]

Maybe not the very first, but I noticed there weren't many at all. Hm... maybe I should Let's Play the game?

Hey! Is this like the first Wizardry IV vid on Youtube *ever*? I thought the fans would really like to put more of Werdna and his army out there to see.

Mechanically, there is virtually no difference between this one and the DOS version. They're both quite hard, and all five endings (plus this mildly humorous "ending," where you lose to Lord Hawkwind without the proper monster) are in this one as well. This is a Japanese re-release of the game for several platforms (PS and PC), though there is an English language option like in the SNES re-releases of Wizardry I, II & III.
