>Does anyone feel like upselling it?
me me i do

at first i was kind of put off by it, but really it's just a massive improvement on the first one, with all kinds of little tweaks and other things to make it more enjoyable. it's a basically perfect vintage SNES-style game, i'm utterly hooked now. if you like SNES-era KOEI you'd be hard-pressed to find a better example of what they do imho.

>>5469375
meh the manual isn't all that necessary once you get the feel of the game. i'm about a third of the way through Joao's storyline and they've set it up well, b/c if you start with him you'll pretty much encounter all of the major things you do along the way. then the other characters seem to focus on various other aspects- making a huge map, combat, trade, all of that. which you may well want to do if you want more of what the game has to offer. some of the mechanics and things are a bit confusing at first but i've found it very accessible.

>>5469781
yep i agree. and pretty conveniently too, you can remodel ships more or less on the fly as required.

bumping with improved artwork also. i just played this for about three hours and i'm looking forward already to diving in tomorrow again, then moving on to Catalina's story afterwards. such a terrific game, i understand now why it's such a classic.

thanks for the tip! i'm flush now, 100+ ingots and i already have Errol's Plate and the Crusader Sword also. i'm going to put some of that into the Hamburg/Bristol dockyards for some better ships, i'll get Madeira up to speed too.

i'm doing Joao's quest and even after navigating most of the world i'm still about 2K sky of the 25,000 adventure fame i need for the next story chapter. so trying to track down a few more rare discoveries will be next also.

this game was just exactly what i was in the mood to play, Koei really smashed it out of the park. i love the trading and even the combat doesn't get on my nerves too much either. i also discovered why it's not a good idea to plunder villages, although i had to do this a couple of times already - once to get the Sabertooth in the early game and once later on when i ran out of food. sorry, Hanoi.

>> No.5470395

well, actually it wouldn't be Hanoi, but the village right next to it. which i basically set on fire only to discover that there was a town right next to it.

i haven't been using a map, makes it more exciting that way. running out of food and water really sucks. like when you realize you can't actually eat those 400 lots of Coral or w/ev you are dragging around the South Seas like a moron.

take Joao and follow a character walkthrough, they're easy to find. basically it's an open-world game but certain story events only trigger after you accumulate enough fame in one of the three areas - trade, piracy or adventure. Joao's quest will give you a little of all three of these and it's a good introduction to the basic mechanics of the rest of the game.

it looks confusing at first but it really isn't, then it's just addictive.

ok, question:

so i'm doing Joao's quest and i'm at 31K adventure fame. apparently i need 40K to get to the next story event and i'm wondering if i've screwed myself here. the King is asking for more discoveries and i think i've basically found them all at this point, as well as all of the ports and villages and cities. how do i get the extra 9K adventure points? just by mapping out the entire world? it seems kind of tedious but i don't know what else to do.

thanks all. still enjoying the game immensely

my problem i think is that i reported all of the discoveries possible to Mondes, which means i can't take any missions with the guild unless i renege on the King, and that cuts my adventure fame in half. and now the king wants (another) discovery. i was hoping that the Stellar Sea Cow would get me out of this, but he wants more...ugh.

have i trapped myself? i suspect so. unfortunately neither the Moai nor the Dodo appeared in this game either, which strikes me as being a bit of bad luck. i've been using a map to hunt for these but nothing has turned up.

apparently the Giant Ground Sloth is located at 25S, 60W, does anyone want to give me a ballpark figure as to where that is?

this is my first playthrough so i guess i'm slightly less embarrassed by seeing that it happens to others too. i am using SNES emulator tho so no hexediting for me. i have explored probably 80% of the map now, arrgh. but at least that mystery is cleared up.

i'm okay with it, i know there are a few more battles and endgame things which are disappointing, but overall i've been supremely happy with the game and i finally understand now why there is so much hype around it. it took me a couple of days to get to this point so if i really wanted to be completionist it's not like it would be *so* hard to do again.

also i wouldn't plunder so often either. permanent charm loss sucks.

two different games. UW gives you the whole world, SMP just the Spanish Main. some things in Pirates are more fun (ship-to-ship combat, duelling) and some aren't (dancing). Pirates gets extra credit for having done it first.

but you can't undersell the appeal of having the whole world, or the inter-woven storylines, or being able to kit out an entire fleet of ships for trade, adventure, or piracy, or recruiting different mates, things like this. Pirates is obviously a classic game, there's no argument about that. it rules. but UW is more than just a knock off, it's Koei doing its thing with a trading/sailing simulator that adds combat too.

there are some things that could be improved on. the cities are all functional and even have the local color and flavor, but they're otherwise basically identical. the duelling system is kind of weird, and while i'm glad it's there once you get the good sword and armor there's no need to bother with guns or things at all. there are other things to be nit-picky about if you want.

but i don't want to be nit-picky, and i'm the guy who just blew his entire game because he forgot to sign the damn contract with the cartographers' guild. i still think it's an awesome game, i just haven't figured out who i want to play as next. probably the pirate girl.

Damn its nice to see a thread on this game. Quick story, when i was playing this game 10 years ago as Catalina, I was screwing around the capital towns to see what would happen if i messed with the kings (for context, every country was at least -70 at me). What surprised me was that the Portuguese king gave me an option to swear my loyalty to him, and become loyal to Portugal instead of piracy. I accepted and worked my way to the highest rank (i think its duke) and got a cutscene where Catalina ponders about how she managed to become Portuguese royalty, and her two side characters are like "yeah good job".

Turns out if you do that, you can't continue her story. I tried to find Portuguese fleets to sink to be a pirate again but there were none to be found. I just assumed i sunk them all beforehand and they were gone for good. Didn't beat the game until i started fresh on my Wii's virtual console some years later.

The reason it's deep is because ALL the ships in the game are produced organically. The kingdoms actually raise money, but ships, and hire the same NPC's you do.

It's a very good game and yes you should definitely play it.
gameplay is.. imagine the art of final fantasy 4 but instead of battling monsters you travel around the world.
so first you pick a character and it shows you who it is and his/her motives for wanting to sail the world.
then you start off slow, and the game will explain how to make money in order to buy better ships.
in the end you find yourself sailing from port to port as the story unravels, fighting the occasional pirate and/or enemies of your country.

there's really nothing better than traveling far away from your home port and getting into storms and barely making it back home, rich as fuck but battered.
then you repair your ship/s and resupply on food/sailors and out you go again!

ship battles are turn based on a zoomed in map, and remember that if you're strong enough or have plenty of men you can try directly challenging the leader of the enemy fleet, when beaten all the ships are yours!

I'm kind of tempted to look up a few things but I also wanna be immersed in this feeling of a brand new game.

The most efficient way to start playing the game is to look up efficient trade routes. Then get rich, then learn how to play the game, then start a new game and play the game for real once you know how things work.
You really can't do much at the beginning if you have no idea what to do, and can easily get into a situation where you die over and over at first.

Both games seem to have almost identical music, with the Snes only sounding different due to the soundchip adding some sort of reverb.

Not really, its slightly different.
like, snes has a different intro. with the New Horizons logo coming in all whirly and wavy.
while the Genesis has this thing going on where the intro comes in from the left and right and joins into one image in the middle.

Snes has this weird effect going on between the biographies where it will go all super pixely when its time to display a new bio.

Also Genesis has slightly less colors in the bio pics, and is a bit flatter in color.
Nothing really super noticeable.

Music wise the Genesis has a cleaner sound but the Snes music sounds a bit warmer due to the reverb imo.

I could have sworn that the Genesis version ran ever so slightly faster than the Snes, but that could have been me.

Honestly it looks like *this* version of New Horizons was first conceived on the Snes and then later ported to the Genesis.
I think it even runs in a similar resolution as the Snes, I'd have to look into that.

So no, not superior. but also not inferior.

Turns out that not just Rocco stuck around from the first game.

Dueling is the quickest and cheapest way to acquire a fleet. Just sail port to port collecting as many mates as you can plus picking up a good weapon/armor then take on one of the better fleet captains and claim their fleet as your own.
I think Khayr Ad-Din has a fleet of Venetian Galleass' is that right?

I fucking loved the Snes version and then tried to get into the DOS version years ago but it just felt too akward for me to control.
I'd pay a good penny for a remaster that mixed the pc and console versions together.

Japan's like "you want MMO with pretty boys?"

>using a numpad is awkward

I have an opposite problem. I started with PC, and SNES control scheme seems weird to me. Especially when I want to steer a ship diagonally..

Also, the border around the pages looks really cool.

Found it after plugging "french world map 1634" into Google.

What a comfy game... It's a shame none of the more recent games were translated and Koei never bothered to re-release them.

>>5479127
Unfortunately, there's nothing quite like it.

There's the X series, but it's set in space and has first person space combat... Other games like Tradewinds are too simplistic.

I’ve been playing for almost a week now thanks to this thread, having a great time so far.
There’s a few things I want to talk about/ask but I dont want to spoil anything.
I’m enjoying the learning curve, I’ve already died before I even gained my first rank, spent a lot of money on wasteful endeavours including a lot of gambling...
Finally got an audience with the king and he won’t even pay me for the cool shit I found in Africa. I asked him for gold but he said I’d be fine on my own.
Maybe he’ll be more helpful later, I don’t want to spend all my best years shifting rock salt.

You need more fame to get the king's blessing. Just map more regions or discover more ports/wonders.

Get a job from a collector and sell your discoveries. Make a beeline for the Nile river.
