I didn't play xenoblade 1 or 2 but 3 has some of the best music in a game I've ever heard, up there with chrono trigger/chrono cross. The battle system is forgettable for me and the storybis very good for a jrpg. Highly recommended. I think I like it better than dragon quest 11. Better overarching story and way better music.

Dq 11 might be the most generic well polished bore of a game I haphazardly enjoyed enough to get 3/4ths through

American McGay posted:If you're doing this legitimately serious respect, that game gets tough and I have no shame saying I resorted to the Rewind feature a whole bunch. There's no shame in doing that btw even if it's just to put a save-state at the start of the level which is still a super legitimate way of beating the game, helps deal with the game over nonsense of yesteryear. Agree op. This line of thinking is really good and refreshing to see. Using save states can make me feel a little guilty, but if it’s ‘use save states’ or ‘don’t get to experience the game at all’ then I know what I’m choosing. Still greatly enjoyed playing the old Castlevania’s just putting a save at the beginning of a stage.

Mario 1 is a completely sensible game that you can beat on a first playthrough w/ no warp zones in the span of a half dozen hours or so.

Ughh first world problem here, i have the option to trade for any of the oled models - i reaally want the zelda one but drat if the joycons for splatoon arent sexy and having a purple pokemon joycon would also be cool. However i have no intention of playing splatoon and have no idea when I would find time to even play pokemon (yes i know it doesnt come with the games)

I did a system transfer to my Zelda switch . I’m curious, did I just lose my animal crossing island? If I did, all good, I haven’t picked it up in a year +. The oled switch really is nice. I need a grip for it, but drat does the Zelda addition look great paired next to a ps5.

I have a suspicion the Retroflag grip (that looks like a gamecube controller) is responsible for breaking my OLED switch's usb port twice now. Love the aesthetic but hate having to do warranty service for it...

Levitate posted:I played like the first couple minutes of octopath traveler 2 and it felt so painfully generic formulaic in plot beats and mediocre voice acting, what are the good parts of it that are worth playing for? I'm a JRPG skeptic, mostly because they have historically been too slow and cumbersome to deal with. OT2 is highly streamlined, so basic stuff like leveling, traveling, equipment etc are quick to manage and understand. At the same time, there are a wealth of small systems running under the hood, like recruiting NPCs, capturing/butchering beasts, dueling punks to learn their skills, interrogating townsfolk under religious pretense, robbing everyone in town blind, and managing the day/night cycle to maximize buffs. Somehow these various systems are both easily legible and rich in their application, so there's a ton of actual gameplay to be had between plot chunks. Best of all, many of those systems influence combat and the overworld simultaneously. For example, Ochette the hunter can capture and then process any creature into food. Food grants buffs, but also enables Ochette to share particular meals with NPCs, who become summonable in battles. If you bribe an NPC with food, they will follow your party around the map. Sometimes quests will require you to bribe someone with food (or something else, other characters gain followers in different ways), then bring them to a certain location. Every character has 2 of these Path skills, one for day and the other for night. I have one party configuration for entering new towns - a thief, a dancer, and an apothecary (healer/poisoner), because they all have some means of acquiring items from townspeople, or uncovering hidden items and information through dialogue. beer gas canister fucked around with this message at 10:12 on May 11, 2023 |

beer gas canister posted:Combat system is wicked good, map design is compact but rich with npcs, items and locations. It's hard to put a finger on precisely what makes it so much fun - its elements all gel into something special. The writing is a bit uneven and some of the characters are much more compelling than others. For me it ranges from tolerable to engaging, and offers justification enough for walking around gorgeous maps and making numbers go up. The best writing is hidden in NPC dialogue and certain Path skills that feed you little dossiers. There's a slice-of-life vibe to it that gradually reveals a lot about the world. Thanks, I didn’t play very much and usually give games some time but Throne’s opening bit just felt stilted and weird (just picked a character to start at random). Will try turning the voices off too since I can’t really get on with that at least now I’ll give it some time was just wondering what people end up liking about as they play
