Just noticed this today...
 
I played GraalOnline for a long time...

But I just noticed today that Graal uses Legend Of Zelda style/theme.

Picking up things.
The characters.

even bushes.

Mangsi 11-10-2015 12:01 AM

No ****.
It's based off of Zelda.
No ****.

Originally, like around 1997, Zelda Online was released. It was forced to shut down due to copyright though, and so the company that created Zelda Online made Graal Online. While some parts of it are based on Zelda, they are different games.

MrSimons 11-10-2015 01:35 AM

Wow I never noticed that! Holy **** dude we need to tell everyone about this.

Thallen 11-10-2015 01:42 AM

yeah, pretty cool when you first realize it, it's directly from A Link to the Past which is probably far before most of the times of people who play now
pretty understandable that younger people wouldn't immediately see it

Funny that Triforce Heroes(released last month) allows you to pick up other players... a feature that Graal has had since 1998(I think) :).

GRAAL DID IT FIRST!

Sardon 11-10-2015 02:33 AM

I remember when I got on graal for the first time and I was like
Wait this looks really familiar

Skyzer 11-10-2015 03:09 AM

1998

DADA 11-10-2015 08:20 AM

Part of what i dislike most about Graal Classic is that it is still very much directly a rip-off of the original map—and this should to be changed. Otherwise, it is a great game

The layout vaguely resembles it, and only if you're looking very hard for connections.

It used to resemble it a lot more when I first started playing (even before the map I am referencing in this post).

Either way, I think there is a lot of potential with the swamp that isn't being used—as well as the Graal castle. The current Graal castle is a real eye sore, anyway … Would love to see it redone. It used to look a lot scarier, condemned, felt more royal, and even had a canon.

Aw snap, it has a castle and bridges and rivers! You pointed out three similarities from an entire overworld, and they typical landmarks of any RPG world.

In Zelda Hyrule Castle is always the center of the map. In Graal, Graal City holds that position. The only vague similarity is that Swamp town is south of a river that cuts the land into two land masses, north and south. Other than that, Graal's Castle lies to the west. The older versions of the map are even less similar, as the desert was near MoD instead of the south with Destiny.

To say that it's a direct rip-off of LttP is a vast overstatement.

Alexmo 11-10-2015 09:19 PM

http://www.graalians.com/forums/atta...1&d=1447187147 this map looks way better than the current one

Har har, it's a matter of personal taste, you don't have to agree :)

Graal map as of now has so many things in common with the LoZ:Lttp. As the woods in the far left and the circus in mod equals a blocked off path. The bottom left represents the mountains and swamp has mountains (go in swamp tower to get a better look) Top right equals sardons/onett and the path to get there. Bottom right is the ocean in destiny adjacent to the blocked off desert in graal.

hosler 11-11-2015 09:35 PM

Graal is obviously a Zelda rip off, but I still love it.

C'mon, guys. Konidas made the tiles super not-Zelda.

Isaac 11-13-2015 04:00 PM

I like that Graal remains quite reminiscent of the LoZ games, namely LttP. Was never really able to get into many of the Zelda games playing alone (with the exception of Minish Cap and Phantom Hourglass), and Graal (Classic iPhone) has served as a suitable replacement for solo play.

I do realize that Graal is essentially just a chatroom with customizable avatars at this point, but still gives off strong Zelda vibes.

GrimBountyHunt 11-14-2015 01:54 AM

Okaaaaay...I can't believe such a thing like this would make 2 pages of post...

this is even my first thread...

Some of this is a stretch; the grove in Destiny has nothing to do with the water in ALTTP

Rekkles 12-03-2015 05:31 PM

The original game name was zelda until they git sued and delta island is a zelda island

Skyzer 12-03-2015 08:42 PM

The name was not changed because of a lawsuit. It was changed in fear of one.

Dude I'm not going to argue about facts. My content was the basis for the essential Graal product then its (my) money was used to fund the empire. A lot of people contributed a lot of things throughout the years, so what? That is a different topic. Regardless, legally this game was mine and if we lived in a just world it'd be set straight.

I have proof, so be wise with your next words.
