Is NG+ actually worth doing? I was mostly just going to jump to PE2 when I was finished unless NG+ adds something substantial.

Few more Parasite Eve questions. Does Junk do anything? Should I be using my armor upgrades on whatever I'm using or stockpile them?

Mr. Sunabouzu posted:Anyone know anything about Mind Zero? It looks like an acceptable persona knockoff from the isolated information i've seen from it, hard to find any opinions on it though. From what I've seen, it has awful characters, boring combat, repetitive dungeon design, and ends on a cliffhanger that will never get resolved since the game tanked hard. I'd wait till it's like 10 dollars if you've just got to play it.

Will your save transfer over or is it not worth getting too far in till the actual release?

oblomov posted:All reports say no, won't transfer. Reason to get it now is to save some cash though and release is on the 30th. Plus you can familiarize yourself with the system, character upgrades and so on. Yeah I ended up buying it anyways. Pretty cool, although Shadowblades seem kind of bad (maybe its just a bad comparison since my other guy was a cleric who one shotted basically every enemy so far) I hope it's just a rough start because shadowy magic assassins are one of my favorite fantasy tropes.

Is Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of the Starry Skies any good? Looking for a handheld RPG to occupy myself and a local gamestop has a copy for Never played a DQ game before.

Thanks for the feedback. I see that they also have DQM2, out of the two which is considered better?

Does the mobile port of TWEWY add anything besides changing the combat up to compensate for lack of a seocnd screen? I have a strong urge to replay it but no sense in dropping 18bux if there's nothing new in it. I am also filled with sadness that we will never get a sequel.

I've always been of the opinion that Shadow Hearts 2 kind of goes overboard with the silly (not as bad as 3 though) but drat if it aint head and shoulders better mechanically than 1.

Picked up Xenoblade again after a couple month break. And I'm enjoying it so far. Here are some thoughts (I just beat Xord for an idea of where I am) Reyn seems loving useless, his entire gimmick is that he's supposed to be the tank right? well he's a loving lovely one because he can't hold aggro for poo poo, which makes it impossible to do any of the positional attacks because the monsters are always glued to Shulk. I've been trying to use Shadow Eye to combat this but even upgraded it seems to give me enough time to do maybe one attack before they're back on me. Fights feel really schizophrenic difficulty wise even around the same level, sometimes the enemies do nothing to me, othertimes I'm fighting to stay alive and with healing on a cooldown basis this is really annoying. Am I able to get away with not really messing with the sidequests? I don't really care about getting ultimate weapons or armor as long as I can beat the game without too much issue due to being underleveled or whatever. What defines an enemy skill that Shield will block? Sometimes it turns the deadly attacks to 0, other times it does nothing and one of my party members still get hosed. It's never the same abilities obviously, but I don't really know how to tell what will and won't be blocked. I know it makes sense in universe but I really hate having to blow a Monado cooldown just to fight Mechon properly, it's really annoying and can break the flow of combat if you run into two groups close enough and have to wait for the cooldown to reset to actually beat them in a timely manner. And finally, back to my first comment, is there just something I'm doing wrong because it's not fun being unable to fully use my abilities because I can never position myself properly to use them most of the time due to aggro.

Thanks for all the Xenoblade tips everyone. Switching some of Reyn's arts around really helped, even if aggro is still kind of finnicky. One final thing, am I expected to go back to colony 9 or whatever to create gems? I haven't made any since the beginning so I'm stuck with a giant bag full of gem materials and seemingly no place to craft them at.

Dross posted:What are the features in P4G that require PSN access? It doesn't specify, but I want to play it at work and I don't have wifi here. You can see what other people did during the day (went home, advanced X social link, etc) and you can send help requests mid dungeon which give the person minor amounts of HP and SP when their next battle starts. It's nothing major.

Been hearing some stuff around the net that natural doctrine has a lot of bullshit like spawning enemies out of thin air with no warning, forcing you to replay the maps to prepare for it. Any truth to this?

Million Ghosts posted:Eh yes and no, it's frustrating sometimes but it's not really worse then any Fire Emblem game. People like to whine about doors being a total gently caress you as well, but the game straight up teaches you how to open them without getting ganked. I see, any chance you could expand a bit on how brutal these door encounters and spawning enemies are? I don't mind something to keep me on my toes and punishing bad positioning but the complaints are causing sort of middling review scores (not that I really care about reviews) so I kind of want to know exactly what I'm in for before I take the plunge.

Thanks for addressing my concerns, Million Ghosts. Probably will bite the bullet on Monday. In other RPG news.. This JoJo's rpg just got translated ] It follows the plot of Stardust Crusaders but starring YOU as the seventh member of the group!!! You take a cool little personality test and get assigned a Stand and join in on the adventure. Graphically it looks like a game boy game, but I think it looks really nice. I've heard nothing but good things, and there's a ton of endings and stuff for replaying. Even if you don't know what a JoJo is I recommend checking it out. Haven't gotten a chance to really sink my teeth into it yet but I'm liking what I played.

I like how you can switch the character portraits in Natural Doctrine from "anime" to "realistic" and how loving horrifying the realistic setting looks.

Quest For Glory II posted:And now Ni No Kuni is finished at around 35 hours. I probably could have finished it at 30 but I kept doing errands/bounties to get the money to keep buying MP-restoratives which are priced ridiculously in the game. I was underleveled at 48 but when you can actually keep your MP restored the game gets a lot less stressful. The final boss's final form and its helpers were pretty simple to take out with Evenstar. Good luck, Gamer.

That reminds me of some PS1 RPG I don't remember the name of where the ending is literally the screen freezing during the last boss and it saying "the end" because you were just stalling the big bad for someone to seal the area you were in or something. Seemed like a pretty lame rear end ending.
