Always felt like isometric Metal Gear, with some Snakes Revenge elements thrown in. But an S rank, thats crazy. Congrats
Thanks. I had to try the dungeons a lot of times before saving progress to do that - I got S ranks in all Immortal dungeons, but on the "normal" ones I usually had "only" As (A+ and so on) because of the time (they are very strict on time on those small ones, I think the only way to S those is to use speed nuts, as I usually wasn't found and still didn't get S). Outside dungeons I didn't really care so much about being found, I didn't know they were counting it because I got like 42 "being found" in the final tally after finishing the game, and I know for sure I always had zero in the dungeons.
I only do this sort of stuff for games that I like a lot (Megaman Zero 2, for example). Got an S there as well (bloody hard, as well). And I got all the cyber-elves, let me tell you there are 2 or 3 that I think the people that placed them there are just outright bastards (and I'm going easy on them).
Have you played the second Boktai a bit? Are there rankings there as well? It seemed to me that it was going to be quite harder to sneak around, without a ranged gun - although I have only played it up to where I could save (so basically, did only the forced "tutorial")... The level design might compensate (the sun is starting to be weak with the winter coming, so I think I'll just play next summer).
Ivo.
