Played Lodoss for PC Engine (1992).
The Sega CD version from 1994 was a good game but it was basically a collection of set pieces where you leveled up in arena in between. Plus the story ended very prematurely.
The PC Engine version is a more proper rpg with overland travel, random encounters and sidequests.
There are more spells and much higher enemy variety. You level to 16 at the end.
Combat is fairly challenging as most of the time you’ll be fighting big mobs of tough enemies (chimeras, manticores, dark elves and ogres, etc.). At the end there are mobs of greater demons but at that point Deedlit and Slayne have instant death spells at their disposal.
The story ends with Karla’s defeat, Gim doesn’t even die. But that’s fine as you already defeat Pirotess, Ashram and Vagnard before facing Karla.
P.S. I don’t know whether the stats used for the characters are official, Parn has 9 INT which makes sense but Deedlit only 13 PB (personal beauty) lower than Slayne even.
