My friends and I were out drinking tonight, and hit on what I think was an interesting topic: what games do you end up replaying at least once a year? I always seem to attempt Final Fantasy Tactics every year. I’ve never beaten it but I’ve probably sunk hundreds of hours into it

I don't think there's any game I replay quite that often, but Luigi's Mansion and Wario Land 4 are probably the two I've played the most in my life.

Vagrant Story. Lately, Stardew Valley, which is coming close to being my game of all time.

I don't do it anymore, but I used to play Final Fantasy IX pretty much every year. Now it's every couple of years or so, but it's definitely the game I come back to the most.

The fact that Fort Condor is one of the first things you can encounter post Midgar probably doesn't help. Like oh hey a new area on this side, and it's even got a mini-game! And it...okay what is this poo poo?

FirstAidKite posted:Sudden chip and dale rescue rangers reference outta nowhere in Etrian Odyssey Untold. Etrian 5 has a quest NPC casually mention that he "uses antlers in all of my decorating." Ciaphas posted:Is the game actually fun at some point, I played for like2hours and the combat seemed really repetitive I beat the game back at launch and despite all the progression systems the combat never really felt any different than it did in the first hour. It kind of plays like a shallower, flashier version of Kingdom Hearts. The summons are pretty funny: if certain environmental conditions are met and you get very lucky you can trigger a cutscene where a giant kills everything. I saw this happen a single time unscripted throughout the course of the entire game. I did a bunch of optional dungeons that were all pretty blah. Apparently there's 1 awesome super dungeon but I never happened upon it, so maybe you should use a guide if you wanna do side content.

Both games go regularly new for like $5 or less.

Dawn of War: Dark Crusade I'm not even normally a fan of RTS games and I've never played and have no real interest in playing the miniature game it's based off of, but for some reason playing it is just a chill thing for me.

Not every year but I've probably played and finished Super Metroid more than any other game. Most old games I'll start and play for a bit and go 'yeah I remember when this was good' then never touch it again but I can play through SM every time.

I'm pretty sure I've played Kirby Super Star Ultra every year since it first came out, and maybe Excite Truck too. In general though, I hardly ever replay games.

Chrono Trigger is my once per year game. Honorable mentions go to FF6 (10?? playthroughs across multiple versions) and STALKER: SoC (5-6 including various megamods).

No one! *The top player gets like 30 more credits than everyone else, 20 for 2nd best, etc

I always thought rewarding the winner with more currency in competitive games would would just give the better players more tools to gently caress up the weaker ones, but it turns out if you level the rewards everyone just goes afk. I think MMOs have learned this lesson several times over.

because all of star ocean is basically the same except star ocean 4 has more spaceships apparently sexy half-naked witch is also kind of jarring because as opposed to her design having anything to do with her personality, she's just kind of a normal scientist lady. just, half-naked

 quote:Fiore is one of the world’s leading signeturgists who belongs to the superior-in-magic Langdauq Kingdom’s Signeturgy Research Institute. She wears a revealing outfit, but it’s probably because she wants to show off the advanced magic symbol carved into her leg.

star ocean 1 is a game where you spend an hour on a backwater fantasy planet inhabited by catpeople, and then a star trek crew beams down and drags you into space politics world to try to rescue your friend who gets petrification disease, but it turns out that space medicine can't cure petrification disease so you fly to a time portal on medieval planet and the captain says "ok we have to discard all phaser guns and modern technology before stepping into the time portal or it will be really super bad"
