This entire game felt like a huge weird mystery to me when I was younger. I slowly stumbled through enough of it to get a decent amount of digimon recruited and after the first few hours any new area I found felt like a miracle. Same for occasionally getting a decent champion or ultimate evolution which is super rare when you don't know what's going on.

Eventually I found some GameFAQs guides with stats or pointers on where to go but even that only helped so much and indefinitely never finished it. What a weird game, some of those voice samples and sound effects are still in my head 20 years later.

Yeah this is me as well. I’m going to try to get it running on emudeck on my steam deck because I need to experience it again now that I have adult faculties. If anything just to remind myself that it’s real.

Xenoblade 3 has the worst kind of RPG shoopkeeper, the ones that gives you poo poo if you don't buy anything. It's not my fault their inventory is bad :(

I learned to ignore all of that NPC griping after Patches started calling me out for it, after trying to murder me, then stealing my new friend’s amulet, and convincing me to go get trapped in the volcano dungeon basement, and in another playthrough kicking me off a cliff.

the best RPG shopkeep is definitely maughlin the armorer from DS2 where he starts off as this timid milksop bellyaching about his failure as a merchant and, if you buy enough of his items, eventually is just loving leanin in his shop giving you poo poo every time you come to buy from him

I mean, he forgot he sucked so much and sold garbage I bought out of pity. My man can't even remember not being insanely successful.

Best shopkeeper is your childhood friend in Lunar who quits adventuring to become a shopkeep and who, when the world is on the line, gives you everything in his shop for free.

Holy poo poo this is a blast from the past but I can't get the controller working properly. I can either have it acting like the keyboard so the emulator menu works but I can't control the game, or I can have it acting like the PSX controller but then I can't control the emulator.

I'm sorry but if you haven't beaten Malenia on NG+7 with an RL1 Wretch with the herald horn no summons no flasks no items, can you truly call yourself "a gamer."

technically every character is a son or daughter or other of someone

now if we're talking worst i have to award both Heihachi and Kazuya Mishima for being simultaneously the worst sons and the worst fathers

yeah but my point is, when is THE PROTAGONIST'S child (or parent for that matter) involved. like, your example is interesting exactly because of the family dynamic.

that said, uh, God of War is extremely loving good and I am glad to finally be playing it. If you'd told me "It's old God of War but open-world with some Dark Souls boss fights and Diablo itemization but also heartwrenching" I would have been very confused, but experiencing that I am extremely pleased.

For that matter there's also SaGa Frontier 2, where your final protagonist is the granddaughter of your first protagonist (who is also still in your party, mind).
