This is the first phase of your mission. And it requires some intense jab-fighting. These woodstock fighters may look pretty tame, but they're loaded up with some potent high-flying formula power. The question is, are your flying skills enough to cope?

Failboattootoot posted:Grandia 3 didn't have a protagonist mom, but the protagonist's mom did join the party for awhile. She was pretty much the most interesting character in that stupid game and the quality dropped significantly when her and that satyr guy hosed off to live on a boat while you were stuck with the lousy children. Give me a crossover game whose party is made up of just Grandia moms. The world will be saved in a day an they’re look fabulous doing it.

Anyone playing Wandering Sword manage to find any of the Class I crafting recipes? I have a few Class II I took off some stronger folks but I haven't been able to find them all. I'm in the Western jungle area now and it feels like I have to be getting close to the end of the game now.

Not personally, but somebody else I know says this guy is the only source of them:  And he's the game's optional superboss.

The drops must be super rare since I haven't seen any. Not sure I care enough to grind that out and Class II stuff is plenty strong. Thanks for that though!

I'm about five hours in and it feels pretty telling that I've encountered multiple bits of travel banter that amount to "wow this are sure does look different now that we're walking in the other direction because the game mandated we backtrack" Edit: Also it's weird that the only people you can talk to in towns are Minigame Players, but you can't access the Minigame until the third town, and then in the third town it doesn't look like there are any Minigame Players you'll be able to play against because your rank is too low.

As someone who loves Persona 2 I would run away from any game that lists it as an inspiration. Maybe if it was games they learned what not to do from.

HttEG looks really sharp. I kind of hope Kasey is able to put it out, because it really doesn't look like it's kickstarter is coming through.

Other than Murdaw, the games difficulty is perfectly fine if a bit stat check-y up until the final boss who is just an absolute son of a programming ball of stiffness. After eating it on him twice, I just boot it up to grind a little every now and then telling myself Ill totally fight him again.

As someone who missed out on it during the 3DS days and liked that HD port of Alliance Alive, I guess I am? Even knowing it's worse than Alliance Alive I'm still a bit interested in it, though I'd rather see a new game from that dev team since Alliance Alive felt like they were so close to figuring out a good SaGa-esque combat system.

It's just a precursor to AA, so it's not strictly "worse", but AA was more evolved. It's not a bad game by any stretch, but the soundtrack is the real draw IMO. I agree with you though. I'd love to see a new game iterating on what they've done since Alliance Alive. I know these games are not fan favorites or anything but they scratch a particular itch.

All this recent talk about Chrono Trigger and time travel in RPGs made me realize that I don't know as many RPGs that utilize virtual reality. And I don't mean games that put you into a pretend MMO, that's lame. I still have fond memories of playing Secret of Evermore, but I think that's it? Was the game where you beat up an evil butler to free people from a virtual reality machine really the only RPG where virtual reality was the gimmick?

One thing I liked was that they werent afraid to dip into horror elements such a setting brings. Like the sidequest with scammers who sell virtual real dolls to people, including high schoolers, and then kidnap their bodies for black market harvesting. That one ended on a kid trying to jack out and being confused what "No exit location" means., or the story with the bullies in the second one.

Later on another Virtual world comes up as a moral choice and a backdoor into hell. DDS also heavily involves a virtual world

It's really not hard to break the grind clean over your knee in the Digimon Story games due to one simple factpr; EXP and money bonuses stack. You can do some spectacularly abusive things loading up with Tactician USB's on a single Digimon that has a passive Bonus XP skill.
