hey what the gently caress

I hope Returnal does well for Housemarque because they make very good games and it was looking like they were dead for a while there when they quit making arcade games to focus on a battle royale (on the other hand I don't have a PS5 but if I did lmao I'm not paying £70 for a game) I was hoping to have a PS5 before RE8 but it's looking unlikely

I'm looking forward to Famicom Detective Club this month though I hope those are good

I bought/completed/enjoyed Ys Origin over the weekend thinking it was a remake of the first game in the series or something but it turns out it's a prequel that's a little different to the other games since it's just a dungeon crawler

what is the correct order to Ys

Origin, I/II Chronicles, Memories of Celceta, Oath in Felghana, some old games that don't have modern remakes, Lacrimosa of Dana, Monstrum Nox somewhere around here I think, Ark of Napishtim, Seven

Ys game stories are only loosely connected so you can play in whatever order you like; Napishtim and Felghana are a lot like Origin if you want more of that, the others are way different

homeless snail posted:

just play the fun games and skip the not fun ones imo, ys is extremely episodic and trying to play them in order will just make you miserable

Nate RFB posted:

Whatever you want honestly, Ys just really isn't a series where it's worth worrying about the play order that heavily. It mostly just comes down to what style of Ys sounds most appealing to you, and Origin/Oath in Felghana/Ys VI are all of the same ilk and if you like one you'll probably like the rest (though VI being the first one that actually came out means it's rough around the edges). Origin and Oath are my two favorite titles so IMO either one is as fine a place to start as any.

The actual games you're thinking of in terms of being a remake of the first game are "Ys I&II" which is also on Steam but they are very much old rear end games that definitely necessitate you going into them with that kind of mindset (still very cool IMO but some of the bosses, dungeon layous, and difficulty balancing is pretty whack).

Nate RFB posted:

Good as all hell:
Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana
Ys Origin
Ys III: Oath in Felghana

Overall good:
Ys IV: Memories of Celceta

Just kind of OK:
Ys IX: Monstrum Nox
Ys VI: Ark of Napistim
Ys Seven

Cool but old as gently caress:
Ys I & II

Legit bad:
Ys V: Something about a desert

Thanks for the info everyone - I'm ok just playing the fun ones instead of going through in order. Though I hadn't realised that I actually only have access to VIII/IX/Memories of Celceta since my PC can't play games (I thought there were a lot more of them of PS4/Switch!) so I'll maybe jump to VIII after I finish Origin with Hugo

Nate RFB posted:

If you're going to only play one character I'd suggest Yunica because she's a lot of fun and Hugo plays like kind of a weird range character that's interesting in theory but not a lot of fun to actually play. There's also a third character you unlock after beating one campaign who is the actual best character to play as but you can cross that bridge when you get there if you want to go through it again.

I already beat it with Yunica! This is my second playthrough to see what Hugo's deal is

actually I was wondering, does anything happen if you beat Kishgal in that first fight with Yunica

I played through Astro's Playroom and it was surprisingly good! The rumble and weird pressure thing with the triggers are both cool but maybe seem like the kind of things launch games mess around with then 95% of games don't bother using them in any interesting way (maybe it's for the best because the spaceship thing felt like it was destroying the controller)

weirdly out of all the sony nostalgia stuff it throws at you the thing that got me was hearing the PSP startup sound for the first time in like 15 years when I was looking at artifacts (actually the end of the PS2 level was pretty well done too) I had never seen the PS1 T-Rex demo from the last level before, at first I thought it was going to be a kurushi/intelligent qube reference

idk it probably doesn't mean anything if you can't get a following as a streamer, it feels like there's a big luck element

Like I'll have art streams on in the background sometimes where they're super good at drawing and are really nice people but have like 3 viewers watching because it's so hard to get noticed unless they're like chatting a lot with other art streamers/joining their discords etc

it seems like it'd be even harder to get noticed if you're just someone playing games

Capcom will be Monster Hunter stuff, and maybe Street Fighter VI. UBISoft is going to be the next Assassin's Creed.

I'd be kind of surprised to see Street Fighter 6, a reveal of the last season 5 character maybe seems more likely

I was thinking they'd reveal SF6 at whatever Evo is going to look like now or maybe even at the CPT final next year (or E3?? is that still happening) but maybe development is further along than I'm expecting idk

The June games I'm looking forward to are the switch release of Umurangi Generation/Game Builder Garage maybe since it sounded really neat back when it was a Labo thing/Mario Golf/Guilty Gear/possibly Scarlet Nexus

there's also ratchet and clank which will probably be good but I'll wait for it to go down in price because it's another £70 game and I'm not in any rush to play it anyways

In Super Mario Party specifically I like Daisy/Shy Guy because their dices (dies??) are very low risk (Daisy is all 3s and 4s and Shy Guy is all 4s with one 0)

i like toad/toadette the best but sadly in this one they are doomed to host the party
