I bought Phantasy Star for the dreamcast thinking it would be like Phantasy Star IV and I was absolutely full of regrets nearly instantly. Give me Phantasy Star V

My favourite thing about the early trailers for Phantasy Star Universe is it had floating text like "is this PSO2? Is this PSV? Maybe it's both! Who knows!" And then the game came out and it opens with some goon riding a hoverboard and closes every chapter with anime laughs to credits and boy I'm not sure what they thought people wanted from Phantasy Star but I'm pretty sure it wasn't that.

kirbysuperstar posted:Sega management has always been such a shitshow, from Yuji Naka throwing a temper tanty until they bought him a Ferrari to Isao Okawa personally bankrolling the company through all its stupid poo poo until he passed away after PSO came out and took any hope of the DC's continued existence with him EightFlyingCars posted:Is there a place where I can read people pouring all the tea about Sega because this poo poo is incredible Tom Kalinske, the CEO of Sega US from 90 to 96, has like, a dozen interviews with insider details on the subject. Here's one from 2006.

I deeply regret the truly insane number of hours I spent trying to get a lightsaber to drop in Phantasy Star Online Though I'm a bit proud that I was able to make a human Force with a maxed out pet and that scythe weapon that was almost as good at melee as a Hunter

Endorph posted:You can use money you win to buy skills and classes to put yourself in as, but it's limited to one skill/item/etc, so you can influence your character to a certain extent but you have no control over what team you're on, and getting in at all is pretty RNG too. And you can also just put yourself in as something completely random. You have to pay 1k for the ability to select a monster class but the RNG option can just give you one, for instance. Basically between tournaments you just put in !fight (class if you want) (skill if you have one) and get put into the pool of people who can be put in. Oh wow this is really cool.

i've done some truly stupid poo poo to grind in loot shooters like Borderlands, which is what happens when you're on college break and have nothing to do "dumbest thing you've ever grinded for" would be a depressing topic, god.

What I find amusing is how Sega is sitting on gold mine franchises and co concepts only for other developers to pick up the ball. Sega completely fumbled Valkyria Chronicles and only released one Sakura Wars game on the rest, yet Nintendo had turned Fire Emblem into a juggernaut franchise worldwide.EightFlyingCars posted:Is there a place where I can read people pouring all the tea about Sega because this poo poo is incredible The best sources are books and old interviews and sales data.

in Taria's scenario in Scarlet Grace I'm stuck followed the phoenix to Azhuacan, won the temple fight the ingame quest says to explore the City of Azhuacan, the phoenix flew off to the northwest, and I can't find anything new to do and the North Pier says "This can't be used right now." i dimly recall visiting the north pier before the temple fight but I don't remember what it said; i've wandered around other provinces doing stuff in hopes it'll open up either the pier or the ability to make an end run around the problem by taking a land route, but no dice

Got a question about Dragon Quest XI. I already own the PS4 version, got it from a friend. I know the Switch version is generally the definitive one, but is it worth buying a game I already own just to play the extra stuff? How much extra do you get?

Endorph posted:Main things are more paired endings (basically paired endings for male party members,) bonus bosses from past dragon quest games, and convenience features like speedup, being able to call your horse anywhere, etc. This and the extra character episodes between Acts 1 and 2 but YMMV on those.

golden bubble posted:Even though player pegasus knights are a Tier 2 class, the enemy pegasus knights are a different Tier 3 class with higher and more min-maxed growths to boot. Thus pegasus knights and any enemy that promotes from pegasus knight get even bigger numbers. Since most fire emblem games rely solely on big numbers for tough enemies, this makes them really hard to deal with. Falcon Knight needed to be an advanced class with something else as the master class. The Pegasus, Wyvern, Falcon/Wyvern split for flying classes was just odd. Barudak posted:I ignored Breath of Fire 6 to death, I can do the same thing for any mobile Phantasy Star V BoF6 came and went so fast that if Capcom announced BoF6 as an actual RPG for PC/Console I'm pretty sure they'd get a pass on the "but BoF6 was a mobile game" fact. As long as it's an actual BoF RPG like 1-4 and not garbage like Dragon Quarter or 6.

I love Breath of Fire but if the series had to die because of Dragon Quarter I'm okay with it since there are a lot of games akin to those first four but I can't think of anything quite like Dragon Quarter.

I loved Breath of Fire IV a whooooole lot while Dragon Quarter was the opposite of a game I would play but I lucked out as a friend of mine fell into a Dragon Quarter hole and replayed it enough to get the D 1/2(?) ratio cutscenes

dragon quarter led to dead rising 1 so even if you don't like it it was a net good

i didn't like the true ending as much as the normal ending in that game though the afterstory chapter that follows from it is alright

I like the true ending but the after story just feels pointless

For anyone who interested in trying one of the Atelier game (like me), the series is on sale on Steam between now until the 21st. I've only seen the Atelier games mentioned in passing, but what I heard made it sound like they were pretty good and unique. This post outlining the series was helpful in getting more of an insight about what each game focuses on, and where to start with the series. However, out of the recommended starting games (Rorona, Ayesha, Lydie and Suelle, Ryza), I'm not sure which to go with. Right now, I'm leaning towards Atelier Rorona, since it's the first one chronologically, and one of the cheaper ones on sale at the moment ($23.99 USD, versus some of the others which are still in the $40 range).
