HD DAD posted:Wasn’t there a jrpg where an entire sidequest just…wasn’t translated? I’d say that’s the worst translation job. I know Persona 1 had an entire 'sidequest' (read: entire second plotline for the game) that was cut from the first English release.

I love it when dragons use their bracelets to defeat Dycedarg's elder brother. Really adds to my experience. So much better than 'babbys first theatre performance' or whatever.

jiffynuts posted:Having a blast playing FF 5 pixel remaster. The job system is both amazing and the worst thing ever. Amazing because I can customize my party any damned way I want to, and those learned abilities are really rad. It's terrible and the worst thing ever because I want to level every job on every character _right now_. And this is why I can never play FFV outside of a fiesta setting ever again.

I generally think any system that is straight up 'men are better than women at half the classes and women are better than man for the other half' is not a great system.

Like I said, 4JF makes me grind less than a usual playthrough. Give me the entire list of jobs and abilities and I feel the need to get most if not all of them; give me a list of four jobs and all I have to do is find out which abilities are useful and which side content is actually relevant to the jobs I have. Plus FFV is an incredibly easy game in general, and it 's nice to have some sort of challenge.

Do you have the exact 4 chests not to open in order to obtain the strongest weapon in the game memorized? (This is me saying TZA, which avoids dumb stuff like that.)

Cattail Prophet posted:Huh, I'd never really thought about it before, but FF as a series is usually pretty good about sticking to fairly realistic hair colors for its human characters, isn't it? I've seen far too many white-haired 20 year olds in this series to think that.

Commander Keene posted:Good to see Squenix's marketing and PR departments all have SA forums accounts. Nah, it's a meme. Squeenix's PR team is so good that they got people talking about FFXIV (and it's free trial allowing you to play the award-winning expansion Heavensward) for free.

MonsterEnvy posted:Well he seemed to want an actual relationship with her before she stabbed him. At the end of that, he was just basically acknowledging that he probably should not have done this, and he is unhappy with what he gained. I acknowledge that the creators have made a decision, but given it is a stupid-rear end decision, I have elected to ignore it.

If you currently have the game queue times have gone down to reasonable levels. If you do not currently have the game no sorry it is still unbuyable.

I mean I think there's a difference between a turn based RPG allowing 'press attack and heal occasionally' to work and a more action oriented game like FFXV to have 'hold down attack and heal occasionally' to work.

Yeah it was praised to high heavens. So many the servers couldn't handle it. So they stopped people from making new accounts or buying the game. Jan 25th is reopening day and new servers are coming eventually.

This character is intended as a stand in for you, and it works, as long as you can self insert onto white American/Japanese young adult straight cis men with no discernable personality that doesn't agree with any of the decisions this character makes.

As a constant FFV player it baffles me how many times the game relies on 'exploration' instead of actually telling you where to go. Sometimes it's as basic as 'head to the only town you're allowed to go to and talk to someone important' but other times you're just kind of supposed to wander around until you find something important. Like, you just got a boat. Where are you supposed to go? Somewhere you can only get to with a boat, of course, but there are a lot of those, and it's hard to tell if you really went to the wrong place unless you talk to literally every NPC. It's not great. Immediately after you head to the place you're supposed to go to, you have a new form of transportation and just kind of have to figure out it can only land in one kind of terrain and head towards a large amount of that terrain. It's not like a lack of explanation in regards of where to go to is new to games with wayfinders or trails to follow. And, hell, having replayed classic, WoW didn't always tell you where to go either before quest markers were added in.

Mandoric posted:There's exactly three places you can go, each set up in a corner of the map to echo the plotline to that point centering around the fourth corner (and of finding something cool in the other corners if you already have), and the two of them which aren't on the critical path are by 2020s standards--I say 2020s rather than modern to avoid the implication that it's better--optional sidequests to kit out the jobs that were your DPS bread and butter in the prior two games respectively rather than wastes of time. The only point of Jachol is a piano (and I suppose the first time you can get a ninja suit in a shop). Like I get your point (at least I think I do) but bard was not exactly your DPS bread and butter in the previous two games (especially considering you might not have even played either game, especially since III wasn't released in the west until after V, twice). Istory is more worthwhile, I agree, though again you get a bard song. Also you don't actually have a bard yet. That being said, not everyone would have noticed that there are exactly there places to go or that each one of them is in a different corner of the map. Giving someone a giant map and expecting them to know where they've already been, where they can now go to, and then doing it once again as soon as they find the 'critical path' as you put it is very annoying to deal with for someone who didn't already know where to go. And I know this because I was very frustrated on my first play through of FFV, long before I knew what a four job fiesta even was.

Man I think the only thing I dislike about Strangers of Paradise is the fixed protagonist who doesn't seem all that interesting. That job system seems custom built for a more customizable MC.

Everything about XIV 1.0 was clearly supposed to be XI-2, yeah, straight down to the nearly-identical races, including gender locks, even though those now made less sense.
