I know there was an lp for the way on here pretty recently. The game can best be described as a hot mess, imo. Setting's pretty cool tho.

RazzleDazzleHour posted:My favorite writer's lazy plot point is inventing the whole "being around Sin makes you confused" and that excuse only exists for Tidus and you never see it happen to a single person I dont think this is canon but I like to imagine that a whole lot more people than Tidus and Jecht have come out of dream zanarkand and all have similar stories about encountering Sin which leads people to assume Sin is causing their amnesia

I've probably posted this before but I legitimately like gacha systems; I think if they're done right you can have a lot of fun with having to figure out how to complete challenging content with just the characters you pull instead of whatever the current OP meta team is. The problem of course being that a lot of gacha games don't work like that, in fact most of them are designed to make you constantly wanna spend money in order to beat the next weekly event or whatever. But still, there are a few here and there where you can have a bunch of fun without spending a dime.

Zaphod42 posted:I dunno, MMO style "you can do this all you want but you only get loot the first time for balance" feels like a good thing to discourage poopsocking. Speaking from my own personal experience I prefer dailies or weeklies to stamina because they're both designed to make your gamer brain keep playing the game, stamina's just dramatically more clingy If I've got a daily, I can pretty much just do it whenever, as long as I do it in the day Stamina means I'm pretty much constantly checking the drat game because the stamina bars like 5 hours long and if I don't spend my stamina before I hit max I'm wasting it so I gotta check in like 5 times a day

Honestly I'd expect the manual to have an explanation that actually no, these are corrupt cops under Kingpin's payroll, not like real cops who never do anything bad!

raditts posted:how does it compare to Dark Souls 2? I've been trying to get back around to DS2 since I've had enough of a break after doing Demons/DS1/Sekiro last year, but it feels like all my character's actions are laggy and lethargic, I can't parry things for poo poo in this game. Honestly you're probably having trouble parrying because the parry frames are way different from Dark Souls 1. In DS1 every single weapon has 6 active parry frames the second you hit the button, followed by a number of recovery frames (14-20) depending on the weapon. Dark Souls 2, there's a bunch of startup frames for every weapon (9-39) where parries don't work, followed by a variable number of active frames (4-18, again weapon dependant) and then some recovery frames (39-60). The only weapon that functions like Dark Souls 1 parries is the Monestary Scimitar, with frame data of 0/18/49, and that's a New Game Plus weapon. Also probably relevant to this, is this chart comparing roll data between souls games. You can see you need like 105 AGI to get anywhere close to having a roll that feels like the good DS1 rolls, and even then you've got a bunch of recovery frames.

I bought Sonic Chronicles because I was thinking "Oh boy, I love both Sonic and RPGs! This is gonna be great!" (It was not, in fact, great) At least you can use Cream to completely break the game in two

Evil Genius 2 is a game that gave me a big sense of dread when it was announced but it turns out that the devs are seriously just making a no strings attached sequel. It looks amazing, tbh

My first thought is Guardian Heroes, it's a Treasure beat em up/rpg. Every character is a different class and they've all got unique movesets with fighting game inputs and command lists.

FirstAidKite posted:DFO is Still The Best The other cool thing is that you can rebind those inputs to be whatever you want. If you wanna do complex inputs you can but you can easily rebind a bunch of them to be smash bros style commands too. Honestly I might wanna play more DFO, I haven't touched it in forever

Harrow posted:Meanwhile, while Square was worrying about Final Fantasy games being too hard for stupid Americans on the SNES, an Enix-published game around the same time called The 7th Saga was made harder for the North American release, to the point that it's one of the most notoriously difficult (to the point of being unfair) RPGs of the era. There's a romhack you can get that restores the monster and character stats to their original values, if you're curious.

Probably the worst part is that FF3 has a bunch of fights that are pretty much designed to be tackled with certain team comps, meaning that you pretty much waste time adjusting to new jobs every time those happen. Though the worst part is the job levels they added. I assume they wanted to add job levels to make things a little more interesting and encourage specialization but they went a bit too far. Job levels have a pretty significant impact on your job, and they max out at 99. Basically encouraging you to stay in one job the entire time, in a game that also wants you to experiment with combinations to beat tough fights. It's a mess. For bonus points, job level also affects Thief's steal chance, so good luck stealing anything if you don't have a permanent thief.

I had a gamecube memory card that was 1024 blocks. I imagine it must have been third party because it got corrupted and I lost like, all of the save data that was on it. It didn't look like 3rd party though, it looked like an official memory card. At any rate I lost the first 20 hours of Skies of Arcadia and that's why I've never finished Skies of Arcadia.

I honestly think the only problem I have with Octopath is the asinine way the stories play out. You really should be able to pick a character and play their story from start to finish instead of doing everyone's chapter 1, then everyone's chapter 2, then everyone's chapter 3...

Yeah, you set a deck of 12 spells and have access to 4 of them at a time, as you use spells you'll draw a new spell in that slot.

# ¿ Mar 22, 2021 19:14 |

Also near as I can tell, "spells" in this case are just Creatues, Sorceries, and Enchantments. Equipment and Artifacts exist but are basically just equip slots, and I'm assuming instants got just rolled into Sorcery.

homeless snail posted:it was fun if you had a good deck but an expensive pain in the rear end to get there. lots of cards that are worthless unless you play another specific card on them to give them a pilot and a gun or whatever. really benefited these days by the ability to just play whatever weird card game you want with complete access to all the cards I feel like a lot of card games end up falling into this trap. I know like YuGiOh is full of archetypes that are weirdly insular, like there's an archetype based all around Skull Servant. Not like, skeleton or dark monsters, but specifically the card Skull Servant. To the point where other cards will have text along the lines of "This card's name is treated as Skull Servant when in your hand/battlefield/graveyard". It's wild and forces you to make super specific decks. Like, you've got creature types for a reason, but you're not using them at all? And also it honestly limits creativity. MTG tends to create archetypes that feed into each other but don't require that you run cards in that archetype. They tend to be broad enough that you can often find alternate uses for them outside the obvious ones.

Hey, I don't blame you, spellboost is just a really fun mechanic to play around with and often requires specific play orders to get your cards exactly where they need to be. Granted, I'm a filthy control/D-shift player but a lot of principles are the same. The only other deck I really messed around with was Havencraft aggro and that was a ton of fun for pretty similar reasons. Messing around with your amulets to summon strong monsters way earlier than you should be able to was a great feeling.

I'll be honest, I'm into it, I'm always a sucker for a cool story from an incredibly unlikely place. I should probably get back into Shadowverse really, it's a remarkably good card game for being from that huge wave of Hearthstone ripoffs.

Last Celebration posted:Kid Icarus: Uprising, normally I’d never want a sequel cause it can’t hope to match the original as a whole, but a sequel that’s guaranteed to catch the lightning in the bottle again? Heck yeah. More than a sequel I really just want a switch remaster. Pretty much everything would still work, you could use gyro aiming, but they would have to change how the camera controls work. Which is frankly, a good thing for most people.
