"They are in order of year of release because I simply could never put some of these titles above each other. Enjoy! 1990 was the year of the handheld for me. I was still having fun with my Atari Lynx but also had a stint with the Gameboy. I also got a hold of a Sega Megadrive this year as well. It was an eye opener having played ZX Spectrum games for most of my life. (3 of 3)"

'waving your sword around like you are directing traffic at Heathrow Airport'

I'm not sure why but this sounds incredibly fun! Even if you're not quite hitting anything!

Sword of Vermillion - https://store.steampowered.com/app/71114/Sword_of_Vermilion/

I had never played an RPG in my life. I didn’t understand what grind was. The Sword of Vermillion came to the Sega Megadrive (Genesis) and changed all that. Not the greatest RPG by far. No reason to rush out and buy it right away but for me this was an excellent entry into the genre. The soundtrack was incredible for the system and I can still remember it. The combat was unwieldy but it was trying something different. Rather than the standard 3 characters, choose an action and press X, you only had Alex, the hero and you had to run around the combat scene waving your sword around like you are directing traffic at Heathrow Airport. There was also a Castlevania style sidescrolling boss fight thrown in just for good measure.
