Quest 2 is the unreleased sequel of one of the few Nintendo 64 RPGs, that was in development at Imagineer in 1998 / 1999. The game was going to be set 100 years after the original Quest 64 and this time the player would have been able to choose between 2 different characters: Leohn, a magician, and Sophia, a swordswoman. Both characters would also had a sidekick known as “the Guardian,” to use it as a vehicle or to help in battle (we can speculate that it was going to be something like a Chochobo from the Final Fantasy series). Sadly Imagineer went into financial troubles and they had to cancel Quest 2 and another project that they had in the works for the 64DD, Desert Island 64. Only an artwork remains from this game.
Thanks to Celine for the contribution!

Shame… It sounded real promising.
I couldn’t beat the first one.
Way too linear… Plus like almost every other 3rd party 64 game it just looked awful…

I don’t see how this would have looked more promising than the original Quest 64 and that was awful unless you have mostly been starved for RPGs.

I enjoyed Quest 64. It the worst RPG I’ve played but, in overall, this games is good. A sequel would’ve been cool.

I agree that Quest 64 was not the best RPG game for the 64, but it was still good in my opinion. Too bad they did not make the sequel.

It’s really too bad nothing came out of this.
Albeit, I still think that it became Aidyn Chronicles.(no, this is nothing more than a crappy theory) I blame the battle system being near identical.
Anyway, it’d be neat if they tried to remake it on any of the Nintendo “ware” versions.

Quest 64 (Or Holy Magic Century as it was called here in PAL regions) was not a horrible game over-all, but it was a horrible RPG. If you have a different opinion, then cool. Your attempt to troll everyone by saying they suck, were too young or were “layzy” (lol) are just bad reasons that hold no weight.
I got about 90% through the game (a little bit after you find your father) and I just turned it off and never went back. Whatever driving force held me in place while I trudged along on that wreck of an rpg just loosened it’s grip and I was free. But again, good for you if you feel the game warrents a 3rd play-through *thumbs up*

legend of zelda was an rpg. rpg stands for ROLE, PLAYING, GAME. Not level up game. you dont have to specifically levelup anything for it to be an rpg. All you need is a character going through a storyline completing specific gouls.
And as for Quest 64, the story wasnt the worst in the world, but the gameplay was terrible considdering hitting people with your staff was more powerful than most of your spells, and other reasons i’m not getting into. I’d give it a 3 out of 5

The only Zelda game that is an rpg is Zelda II. The big thing about rpg’s is both leveling up with specific statistics.
None of the other Zelda games(minus Crossbow Training which is an FPS) are rpg’s. They’re action adventure games with roleplaying elements. They are not rpg’s. They’re not even close to what an Action RPG is.
Quest 64, however, is one. So is Paper Mario, and Ogre Battle 64. As well as Aidyn Chronicles.
Also, if we go by “playing a role”, then all games are rpg’s. That’s why the phrase is not to be taken literally, and to concentrate on the stat part, which is actually what makes a game an rpg, specific stats. Story varies on tons of games. A non-rpg can have an excellent story. An rpg can have a very crappy story. And while the Zelda games tend to have a JRPG-style story, they lack… everything else. Cutscenes do not make an rpg. Playing a character doesn’t make it an rpg. Armor and Weapons alone don’t do it. Stats are the epitome of what an rpg was, and was how it was created and based upon, stats.(and other tons of data combined)
Zelda lacks this due to the Hearts system, no notable in-game stats, no leveling up.(item upgrades) Yes, it has a few elements, but it’s nowhere near the same as how an rpg works.
