Ys The Ark of Napishtim

Moving on with the games complete list, I've started replaying Ys on the PS2. Probably the main thing I like about this game is that all the conversation in the game is voiced, rather than just special scenes like you'd find in most games. Of course this is probably why the game always feels so short. Fun bosses and all that make up for it tho I guess.

Just because I have seen and read of Ys games for years, but have never heard someone *speak* about them, I have no idea how to pronounce the title. Is it /iss/, is it /eez/, or is it something else altogether?

Now you should have asked me earlier as they actually say it once or twice in the game, but I can't quite remember offhand.

Actually when I think about it, I think it's pronounced "Ye's".

I used to misspell the title of the game as "Y's" and misspeak it as "Wise" or "Whys" or something along those lines. >_>

Me too, until I heard the old guy in the game say it. ^^
