Title: Eye of the Beholder - would anyone else go nuts over a DS revival?
Post by: pancakesandsex on November 30, 2007, 06:14:09 PM

So i'm still playing Etrian Odyssey, and it gives me a wicked hard on for some Eye of the beholder.

Yes, i know its not the first of its kind (that woudl be ultima underworld), but its the one i played as a kid, and i never was able to complete them.  I'd kill for a remake on DS with some kind of mapping function.  Interface would need a complete overhaul though.  They put one of these on snes.....was it the first or second though?

I'm not sure why you'd pick Eye over any of the other zillion first person dungeon games.  Eye of the Beholder, even at its best, was fairly mediocre in comparison to most.  It wasn't a chore to play or anything, but it wasn't memorable enough that I'd want a revival.

Eye is on GBA already though - and there is also Mazes of Fate

Well like i said, i really liked it when i was younger, and it'd be cool to play through again.

it was on GBA really?  i had no idea

I loved EotB as a kid. Especially how you could transfer your party across each game.

Sadly I don't have much desire to play it now.
