Jay Rust posted:I successfully finished a three houses run. .. can't believe you're intended to play through the game multiple times, I took what turned out to be the shortest route and it was still like 60 hours. Iirc this literally wasn’t the intent, the devs just expected people to do one route and talk to people who did the others instead of playing it themselves. Still kinda silly that they’d make a story where only some stuff gets context depending on the route but it was made with a lot of Dynasty/[insert franchise here] Warriors people so I guess they set their expectations low for themselves.

It's pretty wild just how much is left out of Beagles route, I keep learning new story beats and such from hearing about other routes that I may or may not play one day. Haven't gone back and done the DLC yet which I will at least one day.

I wasnt planning on doing a lot of sidequests in Nier but if there's stuff like Romeos and Juliets hidden behind them I'm going to have to do a lot of them

The side quests are where all the good character moments are. Play them all unless it’s really annoying like that parade one

Just takes forever even if you know what to do and doesn't really have many character moments. The remake adds another sidequest that locks after you (not really a spoiler but spoiling if you don't wanna know) enter the ship in the ocean town that I think is pretty good too.

oh yeah i'll probably buy armoured core too, I've alway been kinda interested in the series but never at a time when a new game was on the horizon, i did play the second game on ps2 fairly recently and it was quirky and cool but the controls took a heck of a lot of getting used too

You can bone almost anyone you meet in Disciples Liberation (King’s Bounty/HoMM type game, though it’s a different take on the formula).

I’ve never been a mech guy, as a minimalist at heart I find mech media self-defeating. By taking a normal action scene and scaling everything up 10x, the impact is reduced 10x. “Man supplexes man” is more thrilling (to me) than “big mechman omegasupplexes big mechman”

VP Silmeria is gorgeous for a PS2 game, absolutely stunning, and getting hands on a copy doesn't cost that much. The gameplay itself is such a mixed bag. I love that they kept the towns/dungeons on a 2D plane which makes it feel very unique, but the 3D plane for the battle system takes what was once very strategic and fun in VP1 and makes it painfully tedious. VP2's characters are also written in an extremely uninteresting way and there are far too few of them. An interesting sequel that kind of loses the plot.

If your mecha is just Human but bigger then the creators have totally failed creatively. Mecha offers all the freedom in the world to create and design unique and interesting encounters and battles. Combiners, transformers, coopiloted units, stealth units, BioMechanical, Magical, Remote Weaponry, Drones, Putting your robot inside a giant wheel to revive the ancient tradition of driving.

I mean you could just watch Gunhed if you want some 80s mecha, which is also basically Armored Core The Movie https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6k6o766QA0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kOMqItB4Jk0 Also everyone should watch Patlabor, the best mecha series

honestly kind of baffled at the specific claim that VP2's combat is less strategic tha VP1 like liking it less, sure, that's just taste, but it's inarguably more strategic
