firaplays Posted December 18, 2016 Posted December 18, 2016 I must have started my first Neoquest file over ten years ago. Tonight, I finally beat it. It's actually a really weird feeling. I've spent at least half of my life playing this game on and off, so it's a really big deal to me that I've finally seen a game through to the end.

twilight790 Posted December 18, 2016 Posted December 18, 2016 Congratulations! I literally just started my first real neoquest game yesterday. I only played it one other time when I was younger and was too lazy to look up a guide. I was totally confused and I kept losing. Lol. midnight_spell360 1 Quote
just4dailies Posted December 18, 2016 Posted December 18, 2016 Congratulations! I've just started playing again. I must've played with a different pet before cause I had to restart. Did you use any particular guide? Most of the ones I've seen won't actually load graphics. I just want to get the avatar. Quote
firaplays Posted December 18, 2016 Author Posted December 18, 2016 I used idnq. The site has really great maps and a some good guides on it. The one I used the most was strangefire's guide, it's got a complete skill spread and advice on what level to be going into each part of the game. Quote
coley Posted December 18, 2016 Posted December 18, 2016 Congrats, firaplays! That is no small feat. I found that towards the end the pacing became pretty brutal, but it's totally worth the satisfaction of beating the game! I'm maybe halfway through the Evil difficulty now and it definitely takes patience to work through. Quote
firaplays Posted December 18, 2016 Author Posted December 18, 2016 Oh man, I'm not sure I'm even going to go for evil difficulty. Just getting through normal was enough of a test of patience XD I guess I'll see how I feel after I *gulp* beat Neoquest II. Quote
Aquamentis12 Posted December 19, 2016 Posted December 19, 2016 CONGRATULATIONS!LOL I know that PUMPED feeling! My game of NQ1 stayed pretty dead for years too! Then I think about 5 or 6 years ago. I took a new interest in it and managed to (SOMEHOW) beat it. I think according to the guides, I was underleveled, but somehow beat the final boss.... Barely. lol I think it's neat that sound is an option in that game. Or at least it was the last time I played. So, are you going to tackle Hard Mode to get a Silver NQ1 Trophy? I don't recall if I started Hard mode or not. Best of luck if you decide to go right into it! :D Quote
life_eclectic Posted December 19, 2016 Posted December 19, 2016 That's awesome! Oh man, I got so caught up playing NQ. I missed doing my dailies and watching my shows (at least there were no special events to keep track of on Neopets at the time and there are apps for watching shows). I believe it still took me over a month to win. It seems like it should be so monotonous with only being able to move one square at a time, but somehow it usually feels intense and exciting. I think it is the fighting and the interesting/involved storyline. I agree, don't know that I'm going to attempt the other game modes, was just glad to get through normal! Maybe one day, but I also first want to complete NQII. Okay, congratulations! =) Quote

Here's an amazing guide if you haven't found one yet. I used it to beat difficulty 1 and 2. http://www.neopets.com/~winnie_1964 Quote

Wobbafina Posted December 21, 2016 Posted December 21, 2016 Heey congrats! NQ is such a long/tedious game but it's fun! Glad to see someone made it through it =D Now go play the second one B) Quote
megbowles17 Posted December 22, 2016 Posted December 22, 2016 Woah congrats i try playing it and find it difficult Quote
firaplays Posted December 22, 2016 Author Posted December 22, 2016 Thanks everybody! It is really difficult. I never could have beaten it without a guide to tell me how to spend my skill points. And we'll see about Neoquest II XD I'll probably play at least a little of it. There are avatars to be had there, after all! Quote
