Dark Savior is a complete and utter mindfuck if you realize the story is about a child murderer frozen in carbonite reliving the same nightmare over and over

Timestalker was total garbage.

I'd like to play these games, remember reading about them as a kid in magazines. Are they similar to Zelda and those style games?

he's just holding her. there are a lot of fights while holding people in this game
>>3081050
kind of similar to zelda yes, but with more platforming
>>3081035
yeah, that's a great story. I wonder if it's the official one or just an interpretation though? i may have missed some clues and i never find discussions about this game.
>>3081067
that's ridiculously hard to do it under 3:30 but it's worth it because you get the real story. by doing it over and over again and studying every room it's doable

It's a pretty great game but that wacky battle system really stops me from thinking of it as a Landstalker successor. Basically when you're fighting you have to use an entirely different skill set than the Landstalker like jumping puzzle sequences.

Only that you might place them in the same genre.

Definitely.

Also, no love for Ladystalker?

what I found slightly odd is that it's not the fastest time, but the second fastest that gives you the route that feels most like the real/definitive/happy one.

i really wish it got translated as it looks cool as fuck

Translation has been 'almost done' for about a decade. Fuck I hate that Aeon Genesis guy and his filthy lies.
