Ok, I'm done!
PSI: The Hordes of Nei is officially ready for release! My friend, Trenzer, (who evidently signed up for an account here!) hasn't made a site for it, so I'm releasing it via email for now. Thoul, I'll email it to you if you want to have it available like the other patches.
The game is tested on all variables except for the monster data and the character level data. As before, I fully welcome any comments on it! Here is a snippet from the readme:
This is a thorough alteration of the original game to make it tie-in with the rest of the classic Phantasy Star series. Nearly every piece of equipment has a different attack or defense value, many cost more, some items have been overhauled, some are only found from battles with boss monsters. Every single piece of equipment has a use! If something costs a great deal of money, it is worth it.
The restorative spells, (Heal and Cure) and items, (Cola and Burger) are now more potent and require more MP/Meseta to compensate. Guns also do more damage. Many of the shops have different items for sale. The following items are no longer in the game: Wand, Needle Gun, Silver Fang, Ceramic Sword, Iron Shield, Laser Shield, and Light Suit. The items that replace these are FAR better. Discovering which pieces of equipment work with each character is part of the fun of this hack, so try all sorts of weapons/shields/armor on different characters!
All four of the player characters have been greatly changed to better represent their roles in the party. Finally, the monsters have all been edited to keep a challenging level of play throughout, including having different combat skills, and nearly all drop more money to buy the new ultimate equipment. The monsters now come at you in large numbers, so be prepared to fight the Hordes to get where you are going. As for Nei… that is for the player to discover!
Enjoy everyone! And contact me at
