I think part of the reason Octopath 2's a bit more interesting is that it's pulling from more varied cultures for it's world. The first Octopath mostly was different biomes of the same broad "General European fantasy" world. 2 has a Japan-based area, a wild west area, it's got more races with Ochette being a beast girl, etc.

MockingQuantum posted:Oh interesting, I liked Three Houses a lot, really enjoyed the school sim stuff, but combat never felt super challenging in it. Fun, but not hard. yeah as a longtime fire emblem fan it has some of the best gameplay imo, very fun to have Marth as a stand doing all the moves with me fwiw there is zero sim stuff (you have a home base to poke around between missions but it’s much more lightweight) and the story is much more light and straightforward in a way some people like and some really don’t

i must've definitely beelined straight for the story the first time i played FF13 because i stuck around doing all the hunts i possibly could on chapter 11 before advancing and everything is easy-peasy so far. i've even got a surplus of CP that i'm hanging onto so i can max out my primary roles before starting up the secondary ones. i also didn't mind the whole leadup to this point of the game, with the party splits. i had a lot of fun getting to know the characters and eat up the worlds lore. good game.

Yeah, if you actually invest the time to learn to about what's going on, it's a pretty solid game with an above-average cast. The biggest problem is the fact that you really have to go out of your way to figure out what's actually going on as the game has zero interest in catching you up to its bullshit.

also that was the only one they tled because sony doesnt care about the games anymore, the developers probably want them in english but they don't have the rights, hence them starting a new ip that is very blatantly just boku no natsuyasumi

https://youtu.be/NQrghowLZvY Year of the SRPG: Mech Edition Front Mission 2 is one of the main games never released in English so it's a pretty big deal for fans of the series.

WaltherFeng posted:https://youtu.be/NQrghowLZvY Awesome, I've been dying for a release date on this. Too bad it's right before ff16. It was fun finally playing the first FM game but the story wasn't really grabbing me the way I remember enjoying 3's plot. Having never touch the 2nd game I'm hoping the story is there.

I haven't been paying a ton of attention to releases but I have an itch for some SRPG fun times. engage is fantastic, incredible gameplay. it's tonally very different from 3hou but in a fun way, reminds me of rune factory 3 in that every character is an insane dumbass, and the story's more emotional beats still land

Quiet, foul spawn of Lavos. Chrono Cross is really confused, bless its heart. It wants to talk about so many things and it fumbles all of them. I've mentioned it before but Kato worked on Xenogears, at least a bit of it, and CC blatantly takes some ideas from XG. It's just that it never does them half as well as XG. I always felt Xenogears nailed the landing in a way CC never did. An interesting observation I had during my replay of XG is how, despite the many similarities between it, FFVII, and CC, Xenogears is the only one which never tackles the "are humans the real monsters?" question.. Are humans garbage monsters who the planet should get rid of is something both FFVII and CC talk about in a big way but XG is very much a humanist and optimistic work.

i like chrono cross largely because it's one of the few RPGs i can think of that takes place in a gorgeous tropical setting. el nido's just such a drat pretty world to inhabit, and it sucks that most RPGs steer away from that kind of aesthetic i remember playing dragon's dogma blind years back and being giddy when it started me off in what looked like arni, and then feeling immediate crushing disappointment when i stepped out the walls and saw a stock standard unity asset store-looking medieval fort sitting on the road

got to some of the big meme lines in wild arms 2 and got some thoughts based on how they're written in jp first, it's loving me up just how much genuinely more understandable and sweeter this line is in the context of the scene and how it was written in the jp script. the whole "you are the most important woman (person) to me" is something that the english text needed to express a different way, because it's there to emphasize that colette is genuinely just the person tim loves spending his time with the most, that she's not his "woman", but on a more specific level, the person he wants to be with. that their companionship is a feeling they share equally, deeply, with each other, on an equal level as people. read it more as him saying "i love you. not just as a woman, but as a person. you are the single most important person to me."  kanon's speech is just as wild and dramatic in jp but it makes a lot of sense in context and the tl fudges the details a lot. people also exclude the follow up line, which is what gives what kanon is saying here a specific meaning. she's comparing her own past fixation on becoming a hero and her shared blood with anastasia with irving's own fixation on his own bloodline and what it means he must do. irving is doing something horribly irresponsible because he thinks his blood gives him special power to be something greater for the world, something kanon has already come to understand isn't true and was confirmed not to be true by anastasia herself. "vacillating in the blood" is an odd translation of what she's saying here, and "tomorrow exists for today" is a weird inversion that i think is also misreading the meaning for "tame ni (ために)" here? it can mean "for the sake of" but it can also mean "because of": she's saying something closer to "if the day we live in now exists because of our past, is being lost in one's own bloodline the karma inherited by a hero's descendants? or else, irving... is it a thorn you ceaseless push ever deeper through your own chest, piercing deep into your heart?"

bear in mind my jp sucks and i might've even made some mistakes of my own but i'm astounded at how badly the tl handled kanon's speech in particular, it doesn't take a lot of thought to figure out what she's trying to express
