The rating warning appears for all games. There's also a field to input dev described content. Usually it's just 'this game has blood' or whatever. the caligula devs, for whatever reason, copy/pasted the full ESRB description.

Lunar Suite posted:I guess I got bamboozled - I played Paper Mario and the Origami King (where series director Naohiko Aoyama continues to piss on RPG mechanics, up to and including giving you a pseudo-partner, then kill them in front of you whilst making you watch) and the water effects in it looked like they just put actual water in the game. It was pretty darn amazing. That's the best written part in the game and one of the best moments in the Paper Mario series.

They explain a lot of the jargon in NEO but it's much more in passing as they roll with the plot. It is very much building on the setting and ideas from the first game tho so I'd suggest maybe giving it a go (Also because it's just like...the best game).

Endorph posted:seems like they just copy/pasted the esrb website's description, you can find stuff like that for any game. here's final fantasy xiv For a moment I didn't realize that it was saying "here is an example of some dialogue" and thought it was the devs outright saying "Look they think with their dicks, not their heads okay theres gonna be some mature stuff" and only when I read your post i did i realize I may have been mistaken.

    it's really funny how this whole speech about how you shouldn't judge other peoples' personal identity and presentation purely on basis of gender as if them not measuring up to your arbitrary standard of what a man/woman should be is a personal fault with them and not with you for putting up arbitrary standards is immediately followed up with a gravure photo shoot of the model for the lesbian hostess it might be the perfect example of how sometimes, the really good bits of writing in yakuza, are an insane contrast with other parts of it.

Chaotic Flame posted:Can you jump into NEO TWEWY without finishing the first or are they directly connected? I think it was said by the devs that NEO wasn't intended to be a completely direct sequel to the first game (as there's a different cast you're controlling this time, and the setting of the game operates under some different rules from the first) so you probably could, but there are a lot of callbacks to the first game. They aren't like vital to know or anything to understand the plot or appreciate NEO itself, but there are a lot of connections and small callbacks that'll fly over your head otherwise. There's some jargon that does go unexplained in NEO, but they generally make sure to define the vital ones at any rate. Also the original game came out over a decade ago, and while it got ports since then, asking you to play that game to understand the new one is a bit of a big ask.

So here's the question: is the FF3 pixel remaster... actually good? Are there any QOL upgrades, like saving anywhere, or run speed, or saving anywhere, or saving anywhere?

Also positive job rebalances, does not cost currency to switch jobs, arrows are now unlimited, and much more. Edit: examples of job changes that I saw posted: Hunter does not have white magic, but now has a barrage (hit group) command. Scholar has an alchemy command that is similar to item lore from DS, which boosts potency of attack and heal items dramatically (like a difference between 300 damage and 1500 damage on an enemy that's weak to that element). Does not have white/black magic from DS, though. Black belt has boost and kick. Viking has a provoke command. Dark Knight has bladeblitz which seems to work just like souleater from DS. Bard's sing opens a submenu where the only song from the start is paean which heals the party, does not seem to depend on the harp equipped? Gotta see more.

has anyone gotten into Fuga, aka "Kemono ENEMIES" yet, it seemed to launch with weirdly zero leadup, though RPGsite seemed to like it the premise looked appealing enough for the forty bucks but probably not until I finish TWEWY2 Feels Villeneuve fucked around with this message at 21:26 on Jul 30, 2021 |

I actually didn't know it was a series and halfway just wanted to say "Kemono ENEMIES" The whole turn-based combat/tank management thing did seem like an appealing loop, though.

They equalized the aggro sarcasm between her and The Boss so the game isn't overrun by pure power. After all Coco and Pinky are in the game so it's at near maximum levels of sarcasm and Queen levsls.

I'm only on chapter 3 and the bosses have already gotten tough enough that it only takes a couple mistakes to get into "the tank thinks you're not getting out of this without sacrificing someone" range.

Quick Save works anywhere outside of battle, and is not deleted upon loading, so it's legit just a portable save point limited solely by there only being one slot for it.

Are the Grandia games hard? I been looking for another RPG series to sink my teeth into, but I cannot with easier games like FF. Not a value judgement but the combat was so unengaging that I couldn't drag myself to the finish line despite playing most of them.

Mechanics wise? Yes, it's just that if you fully utilise all of the mechanics (or, really, even if you just kinda utilise them) you will just breeze through all battles Also the story is great, super cheesy 90s anime stuff

If you’re looking for something that’s good mechanically I’d recommend staying right the heck away from Grandia, the optional dungeons are pretty legit but otherwise it’s just a long curbstomp while you go on a neat JRPG adventure.
