El Hefe posted:Suikoden 2 is so good, I've never even played a Suikoden game before until this year but since it was only $2.50 I said why not and its incredible, and it has held up really well thanks to the mostly 2d art so it doesn't look awful even though it's an early PSone game. Suikoden 2 was actually a late-era PS1 game! It came out months before the PS2.

Mayor McCheese posted:Physical copies of Suikoden 2 are pretty rare. I purchased mine from Electronics Boutique back in the day, kind of on a fluke, as I had no desire to play Suikoden 1 due to its (amazing) cover. To be fair literally everything on that cover is in fact in the game!

DreamShipWrecked posted:The weird thing is that the same people that liked Inquisition also hated DA2, despite the fact that Inquisition was DA2: The Not-MMO Inquisition has a ton of design differences from DA2. It's not really that surprising. They're closer to each other than DA:I and DA:O but still pretty different.

Dark_Tzitzimine posted:That has the same issues that P4. Since those links aren't tied with the plot, you can have the team act reasonably on their links but as idiots in the main plot. ... except the Male route also has S-Links with party members, just not all party members, so it has the same problem except it's more poorly written? The points where the characters change in the plot is there in both the male and female routes and the fact they have S. Links that don't change the plot is as well. In fact the female protagonist route has more differences in that it actually does allow an S.Link to minorly change the plot while the male route doesn't.

The Answer is a dumb meaningless add-on and actively is both unfun to play and adds a tedious meaningless 'closure' to the ending that undermines the message of the game and also doesn't satisfy the people who wanted a slapdash deus ex machina thrown in to undo the ending entirely. It's the worst of all worlds and the game is better off for not having it.

univbee posted:Fire Emblem Fates and its expansions/Collector's Editions, Street Fighter V and an absolute shitton of expensive-as-gently caress controllers for it, Mirror's Edge Catalyst, Far Cry Primal, Xcom 2, Mighty No. 9, the 3DS version of Mega Man Legacy Collection (and physical versions for all platforms) all drop in February, and then the wallet hurt continues in March with Twilight Princess HD, The Division, Hitman which is at least episodic now so you can get it on it for only $15, Uncharted 4, Dark Souls 3, and Dead or Alive Xtreme 3. Also more niche stuff like Project X-Zone, the Popolocrois/Harvest Moon crossover, Gravity Rush Remastered, the Dying Light expansion pack, ect. Even just the stuff I know I'm going to want to play (Fire Emblem, Gravity Rush, X-COM) are gonna take a huge chunk out of my wallet and that's ignoring the possibility of stuff I'm interested in but probably not at launch. (I like Harvest Moon games and Popolocrois is usually at least an okay time.) katkillad2 posted:That's actually a great idea, thanks for mentioning it. It needs to be redeemed by march 16th

Life is Strange is excellent. Some people complain about the ending but I think playing it through in one shot makes it really clear the ending was kind of inevitable. It's not really a cheerful game though. Like it has funny dialogue in places but beneath that is a lot of downer.

Real hurthling! posted:what type of game? If you've ever played any game with Mystery Dungeon in the title you know the game. Shiren isn't the creator of the genre but it's very close to it. (The creator was a Dragon Quest spinoff that evolved into Shiren.)

Rirse posted:Would say this means a flash sale, but we just had one last week. Rockstar and Atlus (which of course are on sale this week) feel like they should just permanently drop the prices on their stuff at this point. Something that is on sale will inherently get more attention than something that is merely low price. That is why Atlus does that. It keeps putting niche games in the eyes of people browsing the weekly deals.

You have to work to get anywhere in it and theres only one real mission type so its boring as gently caress on top of being frustrating Why is that a bad thing? There are a ton of PS+ games that hit that mark including big budget ones. The "work to get anywhere" thing at least.

DreamShipWrecked posted:How is Beyond: Two Souls? If I liked Heavy Rain and Until Dawn will I like it? My fiancee and I like to co-op those kind of choose your own adventures If you liked Heavy Rain you'll probably at least enjoy Beyond. The original PS3 version had a non-linear storytelling method which honestly kinda sucked. To my understanding the PS4 version allows you to play chronologically and if so you should do it that way.

I've said it before but Evil Within feels like a weird game that came out before RE4 and of which RE4 was the polished sequel to. It's so weird how it feels like a regression of RE4 in a ton of basic ways.

Eh, Watch_Dogs had some cool stuff. Early on playing nonlethally was totally a valid option and it was possible to finish missions entirely through hacking puzzles, sometimes even without going into the building. That fades about midway through the game where everything gets lazier and lazier but the early parts of the game actually have some cool gameplay stuff and you can tell where they ran out of budget/ideas. The story is complete rear end from start to finish though.

It's playable but has all kinds of framerate issues. If you have no choice it's a playable version of the game but the Wii U and 360 versions are far superior.

To be honest the "high school dating sim" line has gotten kind of tiring. Persona 4 exists. It is not a dating sim. You can, in fact, go through the entire game including all the character's storylines without it becoming a romantic thing. It's a game set in high school (which is pretty anime) but it is entirely possible for someone to enjoy it without descending into the ironic-unironic-ironic arguing about waifus.

Mr E posted:Thinking of buying some games on sale: Digimon is a solid JRPG overall. Gravity Rush is fun but very short, ends on a cliffhanger, and is a very obvious Vita port. Better than the Vita version though. Yakuza 5 is overall solid. DT2 is good but 'fanservicy' is putting it lightly. If I had to pick one I'd pick Digimon.
