DLC Inc posted:Gonna need ya'll to buy Curse of the Moon immediately so I know how it is I've played the first level of CotM and it feels mechanically like an NES Castlevania game. I think if you liked CV1 or 3 you will enjoy this. Soundtrack also owns so far. The only complaint I have from what I've played is I wish the bosses had life bars, if I die to a boss later I'll be wondering "was I close to winning, or is this going to take a lot of practice?" The game has two "styles" to choose from at the start. One has knockback when you get hit and limited lives, the other has unlimited lives and no knockback but it explicitly says there is no penalty for choosing that.

I remember playing that demo when it launched and everyone saying it was fun, but it had some real UI/usability issues, and the complains are almost entirely covered in that list. Hooray for demos actually being used for feedback and not just advertisement!

I played the octopath demo a bit and the very first encounter took something like 10 rounds to kill the random bats or whatever in the sewers. I was charging up attacks and doing what seemed like a bunch of damage. Is that normal? Once I figured out after the first two or three rounds how to alternate charged and normal attacks to keep the enemy from being able to attack, the rest of the fight was boring and felt like it took way too long.

Break the enemy's defense, then follow up with a charged magic attack.

You probably missed some gear in town to buy like I did. Also I get the impression the fights are supposed to be a bit hefty too, boss kicked my rear end the first go around.

My favorite thing so far in Curse of the Moon is when bosses are killed they use a giant 'gently caress you' attack that isn't like their other attacks that you have to survive. They aren't instakills from what I can tell so you can tank it if you have health to spare.

So that's probably exactly why they don't have life bars.

Definitely give Sushi Strikers a shot, I tried out the demo and it definitely has the kind of appeal of that Puzzles & Dragons console edition had on the 3DS. First time I went all touchscreen on a Switch game.

Once you figure out proper patterns for specific enemies, the combat became incredibly tedious to me and not very fun.

There were just so many steps involved in random encounters. You could turn auto on, but my guys always took a lot more damage when I did that.

You could turn auto on, but my guys always took a lot more damage when I did that. I don't mean to sound like an rear end in a top hat, but that just sounds like you weren't playing the game right. In addition to straight up being able to turn off random encounters, you can make your own auto battle commands which, in addition to the brave/default system, lets you completely annihilate random battles on turn 1. And you can speed it up like 10x. Like, it's a complaint I would understand for literally every other JRPG in existence but not Bravely Default
