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.

Rah! The Delphinius is mine, and Piastol has been slapped about like a fool. Also, the Prince of Valua is clearly gay.

So he couldn't find them himself. Surely one more reason why you'd have to find them for him? :^)

Nah they are nothing important other than expensive stuff to give your income a boost by about 25,000 gold each. How can he find them anyway if they were inside a Moonbirds stomach?

Could be something they forgot or didn't have time to put in.

But I can see this bugging me just like the damn level's island on goldeneye...

Maybe on the next play-through I won't get pinta in my crew, then he'll hopefully still be in the sailor island weapon shop, and I can take him the idols. Then maybe there'll be a different conversation...

Or maybe not.
But I wasted a long time trying to get to the island. I should probably put the same investment into Skies Ĥ:^) (experimenting with eyebrows)

I was wondering that too.

Seemed a bit odd.

You know those 3 idols you get, the ones pinta is supposedly looking for.

Can you give them to him or something?
Seems a bit lame that he's looking for them, I have them all, but can't do anything with them...

But other times i don't get any for at least 30 secs, but once you get past the Purple moon crystal dungeon you can go above the clouds and not get any battles at all.
