Benchmark Score

[jondel81]

my friend has a computer and I did a benchmark test on it and got a score of 1190... is that good? I tried to run the test on my computer and got a direct-x error (I might not have a compatable 3d card)... so would it be posible to run it on my friends computer?

1190 is a bad score. He could still run the game with absolute minimal settings though.

[ted]

Yeah, that's alright for running at medium settings I think.

cool thanks again

but i'm still hesitant to the whole thing
i'm impatient (and bored ) right now and it makes me do crazy things

but if i buy it will i have difficulty playing ?
can we type in english or only in jap ?
how will i know if i get a good item ? how do i know what a potion is ?

Makkura if you get the game you will be able to type in english or japanese, you can alternate between the two by pressing (alt+~) and bealive me, when you get a good item, you will know, and if you are not sure, you can go to the auction house and check out the price of the item and then determine how good it is. The game is very good even if you know no japanese at all. Just think about this, I have the game and I know no japanese at all, well actually I know how to say ONE THING, which is kearu but in japanese characters, that is all but I still have a great time witht his game. Also, my brother which is 12 years old and does not know nothing about japanese plays this game every day at night, he pulls off all nighters and has a great time playing. I hope this helps.
