Was there ever a patch for Seiken Densetsu 3 that fixed the game? I can swear there was something a while ago that fixed shield functionailty, added back crits into the game and rebalanced classes and enemies and shit in general

Just made a quick search and only found some half assed visual patches. However, I agree with you, OP. I swear I also heard about such patch. Maybe it is something planned by some group and is still in progress.

>> No.5454627

>>5454619
Shit, too bad. Gonna keep looking to see if I can't find it.

In the meantime post more Riesz pls

A shame, really. It would be the perfect excuse to replay the game once more. Hopefully, some other anon here knows something about it.
Also, more best girl.

>> No.5454634

IIRC some of the stuff like criticals would downright mean rewriting large chunks of the code.

>> No.5454693

there was 2 versions of the fix patch, one was a hard patch + fixes and one was just fixes. some of the fixes were agi, luk, crits, shields. i patched this rom myself from a no-intro sd3 with the translation patch and fix patch (not the hard one), could never get the 3 player patch to work on top.

Haven't checked what the contents are, but I think he posted a link, mate. Look closely at the "gibberish" at the end of his post.

Classes in SD3 needed rebalancing?

I mean sure there were better and worse ones but pretty much each of them had something unique that made them worth playing

I noticed that anon, I'm just curious of the origins and change log of the patch.

there was Sin of Mana but it made the game ungodly hard and Angel Grails expensive as fuck.
Sin of Mana fixed a lot of stuff like raising the item count limit you can carry from 9 to 20 but it gave SD3 a backbreaking Wizardry treatment where your maxHP sinks everytime you drop dead. that sucks to be honest.

You honestly don't want to play the version with the bug fixes (except maybe Shield functionality) because crits actually working makes damage ridiculously swingy

You're supposed to use the included difficulty patches. Drop it down to the middle difficulty and it's only marginally harder than the original game and a hell of a lot less busted.

Nope. Sin of Mana has an optional hold X to skip animation patch, though.

This puzzles me too. RHDN generally has everything about hacks so a major improvement like this should be posted there. Or at least a link or something.

Ok, to be fair, it's listed in their datacrystal-wiki:

Played this game after I saw this thread.
Sorry to says anons, but it is bad.
Chrono Trigger is better.
Or did I an unfair comparison?

There'll probably be some bullshit rule they have in place preventing it.
They refused to have the mother 3 translation on the site for years untill people on the forum complained about their bullshit rules.

I agree that CT is better, but SKIII is still one hell of a game.

honestly even if such a patch existed I wouldn't use it. if the devs had intended for the game not to be broken, they would have patched it themselves. as retro gamers we have a responsibility to respect developer's vision.
