Despite naff graphics I am loving this Skies game. Picked it up along with 3 other games (see my £50 in cambridge thread) for a mere £19 and I can't imagine a closer RPG alternative to Zelda. Vast, expansive, encourages exploration and a deep story. In fact as storylines go it moves at a far faster pace than that Wind Waker game.

Great game, feels a bit like Starfox to play (not quite sure why) but of course i mean that in a good way.

If you can find it buy it. You won't regret it. Roll on Skies 2.

Not really if i could completely beat a boss in 3-4 turns and get dealt 0hp damage from most attacks.

Well, you could have made life a lot easier if you had. All of hers except for Lunar Glyph are very very very useful spells.

I haven't played Skies in ages... and I doubt I will until the games start becoming sparse in release again.

There are no fish story wise after you go to Dangral Island, try going back to the docks of Maramba and Nasrad, and even in pirate Isle's dock.

What happens on giving the last moonfish to maria's bird? Will I know when it happens?

I fed the bird to find out about the piastol thing, and figured that was the last fish.
Then I found abother one :^S

I don't know how many more are out there. Were there any fish in solstis?

Gasmask try not to forget that there are 2 chams and 1 moonfish inside, f you miss them before you finish you will have to come back later in the game to get them.
