Today in video games, I bought Stardew Valley. It's very charming so far. I just made it to the end of my first week and now I can see the appeal of these Harvest Moon-type games. edit: Elliott is very handsome CJacobs fucked around with this message at 20:35 on May 28, 2016 |

Anybody else get the new localization Romancing Saga 2? I'm not a huge fan of playing RPGs with a touchscreen, but I'm willing to put up with it since I enjoyed the series so much when I was growing up.

Harrow posted:My favorite fantasy stories are the ones that dig deep into folklore and fairy tale, which is why I love books like Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell so much, or pretty much everything Witcher. Have you read any Hellboy? That stuff is rich with fairy tale madness.

Hellboy does the whole "story about stories" thing way better than something like Sandman or most of Gaiman's work does, because Hellboy actually follows folklore structure way better, while people who write in Gaiman's style are too focused on making it feel like a monomyth or whatever. Everyone should read Hellboy, its really good.

Are there any JRPGs on PC that are actually good?

Depends on how wide your definition is. Lots of Square and SEGA ports, Trails in the Sky & SC, Valk Chronicles if you count SRPGs, Ys Oath & Origins for aRPGs.

I like modern fantasy a lot; I'd love to see a Witcher-scale game set in something like the setting for China Mieville's Perdido Street Station. Something emphasizing vertical space rather than just open space perhaps.

My hope is that From Software continues to iterate on Souls mechanics while delivering games in different settings and with different quirks of their own, like Bloodborne, which was great. It'd be neat to see their take on something like urban fantasy or a modern post-apocalyptic setting.

I don't want to a From game set in modern times since they are so good at creating strange worlds. I'd rather see their take on a post apocalyptic cyberpunk future.

Speaking of souls games, I just discovered that the wheel stuff is based on a real form of execution https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breaking_wheel. I knew it was lifted from the executioners in Beserk but holy poo poo they used to do that in real life

It'd be cool if From took the converging lands concept from DS3 and applied it to time travel. Sort like Chrono Trigger but instead of traveling between times, there are areas from different eras juxtaposed together and interacting with each other. So you'd have stuff like a future society experimenting on early the earliest forms of life and creating monsters. A medieval castle fighting off attacks from modern military forces. Cavemen using plundered Soviet munitions. I just really enjoyed the idea behind DS3's setting and want to see them get weird with it.

I have been playing Brawlhalla lately. Is OK. Its really fun just running around the map and throwing your weapons away constantly so you can grab bombs and mines and just sticking around the edges to get opportunist kills. You get a lot of complaints about how you are not "fighting" despite getting the most kills lol.

I'm playing Indigo Prophecy for the first time in like a decade since I got the Remastered version in a bundle and they just added achievements. It's funny, when I originally played it I thought Tyler Miles was the weakest character because he was a walking collection of outdated black stereotypes and didn't really have anything to do with the main plot but now he's my favorite character because he's a genuinely decent guy and the only person who has a complete character arc in the whole game. And his licensed music is a breath of fresh air in the quagmire of Theory of a Deadman songs on the soundtrack. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bjdODmRD9m4

oddium posted:the days in stardew valley pass way too quickly to get a real chill going. please sign my change.org petition of stardew valley 2 ideas I also feel this way. Maybe it's because I'm not extremely far in (about at the end of my first Spring) but I feel like the energy/food mechanic is totally useless because I am running out of time before I ever run out of energy. Even when I spend an entire day just standing still and fishing off a bridge or something, I only drain like 3/4ths of my energy bar. edit: I'm also not sure why the game allows you to walk besides style points because time passes too quickly for a slow-paced walk to ever be useful http://community.playstarbound.com/threads/storm-and-smapi-timespeed-mod-configurable-day-lengths.107876/ Found a mod that apparently lets you change the lengths of days though I think? I'm not sure how modding Stardew Valley works CJacobs fucked around with this message at 03:48 on May 29, 2016 |

Hope every1 is having a cool Memorial Day weekend. I went to the bar with my friends from out of town last night and drank a lot for free, spent today recovering and playing Bayonetta 2. I can't imagine how annoying it would be to play Bayo 2 with the Wii U gamepad instead of a pro controller, but it's a crazy good game. I wish I didn't have to pay the couture bullet tax to wear the Bayonetta 1 costume, I like it better! I'm glad I bought a Wii U, I had a ton of fun with Super Mario Maker as well.

I thought the dress from the intro was rather elegant.Guy Mann posted:LISA and Undertale. Just to add yes, both of these are good and interesting games. LISA is a little mechanically uneven and unfair in places partly in service to its themes, while Undertale is pretty easy unless you do a specific gimmick route which is tedious and annoying, but they're very creative.

I downloaded that Stardew Valley timescale mod and set it to about 3/4ths of the speed. The game is much more relaxed now, I like it better this way. I have also found myself saving food items instead of just dumping them in the sell box. If you play Stardew Valley, use that mod

When I was at the book store the other day, I saw this book. "Fat Cat At Large's Amazon Page posted:FIRST IN A NEW SERIES! I thought maybe somebody might get some enjoyment out of this, I thought it was kinda funny that this exists. I ain't even mad. I just am glad somebody decided they wanted to write mysteries involving a fat cat and including recipes and stuff and then they actually went and wrote it. I looked up the author and she has only written 3 books, all of them being fat cat mystery books.
