Hey, all. Any of you remember good ol' Quest 64? It was a game released in 1998 that was possibly most notable for being one of the Nintendo 64's only RPGs It's far from a perfect game, but for some reason I keep coming back to it. Maybe it's because the game feels so unfinished, and it is precisely that quality which I strangely find so appealing. You can see where they were going with it and you can sense the promise of the game it wanted to be, but it just wasn't there. Actually, there's quite a few bits of "beta" content left hidden in the game, including a few maps that never made it into the final product including a beta version of the Floating Monastery, the Normoon Windmills, and an empty room with a floating map of Celtland. Here's a list of all maps: MAP SET MODIFIER: 80084EEF00XX MAP MODIFIER : 80084EF300XX SET 00 - MELRODE EXTERIORS MAP 00 - MELRODE, TOWN 01 - MELRODE, MONASTERY EXTERIOR 02 - WORLD OF MAMMON, FLOATING MONASTERY EXTERIOR 03 -

I have an interesting history with this game. Wanted it since the PSX was the only console getting anything at all back then, or at least anything that was interesting to me. So I thought Quest 64 looked good enough. I remember my impression playing it though. I just didn't understand what the heck you're supposed to do. I guess RPGs didn't make much sense to me back then. Ended up buying a cheap set of sealing plastic that you put on by using a blow dryer and returned the game pretending it was unopened. It worked! Did the same with the Gex Enter the Gecko port to N64 that also disappointed me and surprisingly that worked too.
Sounds like what GameStop does all the time! ha ha Well, I checked out the maps on the Japanese version of the game (Eltale Monsters), and I found no additional unused maps. However, I did discover that they cut out two rooms in the Monastery in order to speed up the process of getting the player down and out of the first building in the game. They pulled out: 0D - MELRODE MONASTERY, STAIRWELL MID and 10 - MELRODE MONASTERY, HALLWAY 1 You can still access these rooms using codes, but they are inaccessible from normal gameplay in the Japanese version.
