What's cool in jrpg if the only ones i haven't bounced off in years are replaying 10 and 10-2?

its cool but it has absolutely the worst combat of any game ever made. this is not a joke

it's cool that witcher 2 geralt can only pregame potions and they expire during dialogue.

I will confess I was a little cold on it after galopolis, almost put it down. Now I just finished the spider boss and what a rush. Imps have my trust from now on.

the world map of SaGa Scarlet Grace is starting to get littered with post game superbosses but I can't tell when the game would even end in the first place I'm in JRPG purgatory send help

sounds like jrpg heaven to me. i'm stoked to start saga games, going to start with the frontier remake then scarlet grace.

having a cool time in SaGa : scarlet grace. no idea what's going on. ten hours in i read a tip that defending for a turn gives you more speed the next turn. read the tips, everyone.

i've never played a might and magic game but i've looked into this and it seems like the tightest poo poo of all time.

i had a super epic day playing legend of mana four years ago and then nocturne killed my ps3. so fuckin pumped to get back to it, it was a total friggin blast

is this a remaster or port. legend of mana is kind of all rough edges even though i love it.

honestly the first 'breathtaking' game i played. gorgeous design, super thoughtful worldbuilding. it's one of a kind.

only real gameplay change apart from save anywhere is tht you can turn off random encounters. they said that s specifically to make the running around maps trying to find an npc parts better

also a good change, lot of legwork in this game and the combat is pretty charmless compared to literally every other aspect of the game.

p4's restraint is it's biggest strength. the pared down murder mystery suits the s-link system a lot more than p3's goal, killing the moon i think.

same. it's so cool knowing the antagonist is working to advance their goals while you're trying to stop them, feel like everything is moving forward even when the game is pretty relaxed.

honestly skip two if you're annoyed like two hours in, it's not much better than one and way worse than three.

started playing Wild Arms 3 and it seems pretty awesome, even if battles a bit too slow. felt the same way about 1 and 2 but still really enjoyed them. the style is so awesome, the jump to ps2 looks amazing.

it's extremely sick. the cast is all great, the music is great. but yeah it's very slow, though i played it when i was in middle school and could play any jrpg for 10 hours at a time so i might not remember so good. also i was big into trigun at the time.

i only ever rented it so i have no idea how far in i ever was, but it felt like a super long game. i'm a little intimidated by older jrpgs after dq11 made all my dreams come true.

it doesn't seem too long, but def longer than 1 or 2. I also think the in game timer is off though, like it doesn't count during cutscenes and dialogue and such.

it also constantly displays your time played in the bottom left hand corner and it's kind of tacky and distracting lol. Weird game.

did you notice the intro changes as you progress? love that kind of thing

I nearly lost my mind when you get to the sea monster in B route, and instead of hijacking the coastal defense cannon and blasting the monster like in A route, 9S says he needs to calibrate the aiming systems on the cannon and you do the hacking game again

Fair. I was enjoying the narrative enough at that point to play a bunch of asteroids in 2019 though.

Cloud: Huh, turn over Barret, get a clean slate. Wow. Sounds like a pretty good deal. But I think I have a better one. How about... I activate the tutorial finger, highlighting the nearest exit to a save point, and I use the PHS to switch party members.

Reno *clicking a checkbox*: Ah, but Mr Strife, what good is a PHS if you are unable to speak.
