Terrible battle system, Best game I've ever played
3 personnes sur 3 ont jugé cet avis utile. Firstly, to address the reviewers who are "appalled" by this game... it's rated T because you might not want your 5 year-old to play it. Before you give a game to your children, maybe you should look at the rating.
To address the game: ... oh my god. I'm sorry, but that's the best I can do. Even though Okage came out in 2001, I'm yet to find another game that can impress me equally.
The premise - an "overshadowed" boy (a shy boy, one who doesn't try to make himself heard or speak up for himself) becomes possessed by the "malevolent"-yet-lovable spirit of the Evil King Stanley Hihat Trinidad XIV, or "Evil King Stan" for short, and embarks on a quest to subjugate fake evil kings - to fight evil on the behalf of evil. Of course, this is just the short version. Okage's plot is, at its core, a social commentary on the labels people give each other and how we play into those roles, and whether we might break free from them. It contains some of the best video game writing I've seen in a long time - the jokes are actually FUNNY, even to an older audience, the characters are all delightful and quaint, the more serious scenes do not fall into the trap of cliche or strike as unbelievable.
The character design and graphics are probably Okage's most widely-acclaimed features. Truly inventive, Tim Burton-inspired scenes and characters with bright colours and interesting detail abound. Okage's soundtrack ranges from quirky to haunting to sweet, and entirely distinctive (I assure you, you have not heard these songs elsewhere - ever).
The biggest complaint that people have with Okage is the battle system and dungeon format. Okage employs a real-time-style (but still turn-based -- the battle will freeze and allow you to pick the character's action) battle system, and the dungeons are - admittedly - rather tedious. Battles are not random-encounter, but rather represented by white, blue and red ghosts which float around the screen and chase after you. If you're the type to avoid battles, you'll quickly gain precision enough with the joystick to avoid almost any ghost, but it can get *tedious* very quickly. In my personal opinion, however, Okage's virtues more than outweigh these problems. (But if you're playing only for the battles and not for the story/character development...)
Okage is awesome. That's all there really is to it. There is romance and rivalry, there is mystery and tension, there are heroines with pink shadows and sidequests even the players guides don't cover. There is existential crisis and witty repartee. There is an evil talking shadow who can't understand why people aren't terrified by him. And sometimes, he will help you out in battle if you tell him a joke.
Okage is, bar none, my favourite game. It's been almost 7 years since it came out, and still, I am unmoved by others.
Take a chance on it, you guys. There are people selling it Buy-It-Now for $10.

Very helpful, but misses some sidequests
While it does provide a lot of helpful information - particularly in dungeon crawling and finding all the Tiny Gears for the Sword of Gear (which is an *awesome* weapon - unlike many other games, the most difficult sword to get actually *is* the best), PRIMA's guide leaves a lot of things unanswered. Particularly how to get Marlene's item after the ghost chapter, and the sidequest involving Ms. Madril (yes, there *IS* a purpose for that punk wig you found in the field).
Despite these misses, however, PRIMA's guide offers helpful information that a lot of people can really benefit from -- the correct combinations of responses for Stan's helpful preeminent hits, for example. I know many people who have been unable to get through the Deep Grave Pit without consulting the guide.
All in all, I'd say it's worth it. But only if you're paying $15 or less. Otherwise, seriously, the information is available online.
(Collectors, however: go for it! Okage merchandise is few and far between.)

Lives up to the hype
2 personnes sur 2 ont jugé cet avis utile. I bought this cartridge when my own stopped working (lo and behold, my cartridge actually started working again as soon as I bought this one...but now I have a backup). I'm really glad I decided to go back and replay Harvest Moon 64. There's a lot of hype and a lot of nostalgia surrounding this game, and sometimes it can be hard to pull apart whether those feelings are simply a longing for that feeling of gaming when you were a kid, or if a game really was that good.
I can confidently say now that this game really is that good. It's stood the test of time -- controls and gameplay are intuitive and fun, and the depth of the characters and the feeling of kinship within the town is second to none. I 100% recommend returning to Flower Bud Village, or joining for the first time, to any fan of Harvest Moon, Animal Crossing, or other village/life/farm sims.
