So like, are there any stores that sell physical Vita games anymore or is it all online only? I don't really like having packages sent to where I live but I still like having physical media as I am a curmudgeon.

I live in the US.

Other than the tiny shelves at some Gamestops, I don't think so. Unless you have a local Retro/general game store that may get Vita stuff traded into it.

There's also a chance that Best Buy, Target, or Toys R Us may still have something. But don't expect much of anything recent in those cases.

Nope, tested it out over several chapters. Legitimately wrong entries. Not enough to cause issues but odd enough to catch every once in a while. Not surprising, every Plus version has some sort of major glitch.

I've fallen through the floor, spawned in the air after an added cutscene, and had Shalotte's broom just not load for one session. Not to mention slowdown and various pop-in issues.

It has me worried for Firis because they're still fixing things for the Japanese version.

iirc you just have to match the items you're using, and the skills you're using, to the element of the item. So fill up a fire item with a bunch of fire poo poo.

It's mostly for end-game crafting when you have a ton of materials and can just mash through synthesis and end up maxed out because it's effectively exponential

That.. that doesn't sound good at all. I could deal with frame slowdown and the occasional bad translation, but those sort of glitches seem pretty nasty.

In comparison I will say I didn't encounter any of those glitches, just the slowdown and translation issues.

I was just very unlucky I guess. You might see the spawning in air one, that was a late game cutscene. I thought somehow I had sold the broom I had equipped in the first case, and the floor was entirely random after beating an enemy where two geometry objects met.

Which of these dumb Sword Art Online games are worth trying out, the $4.99 one or the $7.99 one?

They're both awful but the $7.99 one at least has a translation that's comprehensible if you're willing to subject yourself to garbage

Hollow Fragment:

- Horrible translation, to the point you will likely need out of game guides for some things.
- Very, very long game with a LOT of builds, secret bosses, unlocks, etc...
- I think you need to go through these weird romance parts to boost your followers.
- Very open style
- Story is pretty mediocre


Lost song:

- Pretty good translation
- You can Fly (though at first very limited)
- Very linear compared to HF
- Only game with ranged magic and attacks.
- Story is pretty mediocre

I know very little about the last one other than it slows down badly in combat situation and dense population towns. Not sure if that was fixed yet.
Gameplay is supposedly the best of all 3 - when it doesn`t slow down (aka PS4). It`s still 53$ so you probably don`t care about a Hollow Realisation that the franchise is very lacking.

.hack but bad, I think. Then again over half of .hack is bad so that makes it double-bad?

Accel World is better than literally any .hack game because it has Ash Roller and is also not as up its own rear end despite being written by the SAO dude

accel world is probably sao dude's best work because it isn't A) a rewritten version of something he wrote in high school or B) desperately trying to add on top of something he wrote in high school that had a definitive ending

yeah even though he wrote both of them accel world is actually pretty cool, but i'm guessing it didn't take off as much because it isn't as harem-y

vv yeah true. also SAO started off with the much more traditional fantasy settings even if it is just a video game

i think its also because of the weird toku designs and the main character having a pretty goofy look

I cannot emphasize how Ash Roller is the best character Kawihara has ever conceived and is part of the reason why accel world is really fun

I keep getting really confused for some reason and mixing up Net High and Punchline and got really disappointed when I learned Punchline wasn't what I thought it was.
