How do yall feel about azumi’s voice?
yeah pee fags are so whiny about shit. actually its just jarpigs in general
>>3482338Sorry I meant to say PQ1
>>3477993She's fine.
Worse than the old singer in the remakes, great in the Reloaded original songs. Same applies to Lotus Juice. The remade tracks are just worse all around.However Full Moon, Full Life is by far the best opening song, and Color Your Night is pretty good too. It's Going Down Now is alright.
>>3480597No one actually like basil by itself, it's like an enhancer, you usually combine it with others herbs like mint, thyme, rosemary etc.
What RPGs have the best assassin storyline?
>>3489140>There's random guy on Manaan who recruits you and sends you killing people around the galaxyPazaak players be like uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I gotta go around the galaxy to uhhhhhhhh kill people now
Dragon Age 2 has some hitman quests lolweird game and not that bad, I guess the way fights work are lame
>>3489025Yeah, oblivion and skyrim have the best assassin storylines.
age of decadence
>>3489279Was quite good and it has a lot of neat offramps too, as in moments where you can betray the guild and take up a different path in a clever way
What's your favorite rpg-related music track /vrpg/?
The only thing Funcom has ever done right was the soundtrack for Age of Conan.
>>3490318Should probably link the songhttps://youtu.be/GBFHgmgyiJg?si=T7nL3x0wPEo4SswF
Guardian Tales soundtrackhttps://youtu.be/pq15JuN8FhA?t=5447
>>3486998>>3487252Lecher Bitch is so fucking good too; Still posting VTMB songs is almost cheating.
>>3488007good choices
Is this any good?Also, obscure cRPG thread
>>3487432They're living the dream, kinda motivating
>>3487600they don't fulfill k*ckstarter promises
>>3487387Any other RPG's with a similar tone or setting? Really looking forward to Skald and I've burnt myself out a bit on Darklands recently.
>>3487387>game setting inspired by late bronze age Transylvania>most names are either latin(romans didn't have a significant presence in Transylvania until after 100AD) or slavic(slavs weren't in that region at all until the 6th century)immersion ruined
>>3490361inspired doesn't mean it's yurop thoughkys autist
So I'm not entirely sure where to put this, so I'll start here. There has been a slump of good RPG's to play lately in my opinion, so I started to go back and play a few old classics that I enjoyed as a young lad. One of them being the absolute classic Kotor 2. I downloaded a few mods to make it playable, as this game is well known for being rushed out the door as a bug ridden, incomplete mess by the developers.Now I don't remember the games sides stories very well, but I do remember that you could pretty much choose if your companions go light side or dark side though out the game. When I first played the game back in the day, I chose going light side, and trained up my crew to be Jedi to use light side force powers to fight for the power of friendship or whatever bullsh*t was the light side way of doing things. But I wanted to do things a bit differently this time. I want to play a dark side pimp with a harem of bitches. But when I try to search for mods of multiple romances to try and reflect this, all I get is same-sex relationship mods, most with lectures in the descriptions about how the mod author was upset that there were few options in the vanilla game to be a flamer or female construction worker. If that's what you want to play, that's fine. That's what mods are for. But when I try to search for a mod to roleplay as a pimp, the mod is basically not available. Like anywhere. I know that NexusMods is basically a bastion of retarded political morality now, but it seems like people have to go to LoversLab if they want even a slightly edgy gaming experience now. So I guess this thread is for a few reasons. Who was your favorite romance in kotor 2 and why? What is your favorite mod for kotor 2?Why, in your opinion, are gay mods so prevalent and downright pushed in pretty much every game nowadays?Does anybody know of a place that I can download and install a mod that lets me have multiple romances in a fictional game that was popular 15+ years ago?
>>3489108Mods are made by people, and Nexus has the most. It's ideological bias doesn't censor shit like harem/polyamory. But would probably censor something like turning the lesbian character (if it existed) into playersexual.Seems like most mod sites nowadays are biased in one way or another so you're out of luck.
I would put my pp in handmaiden and then fuck Visas while handmaiden is out on missions as my side piece
>>3489195I know right?There should have been a simp, mommies boy path. She still degrades you but smiles and gives you a hug after.God, I want it so bad bros. .
It could just be because a mod like that would probably be pretty buggy and hard to make. Whoever you choose to romance changes multiple plotpoints and can get you into arguments with other players. Trying to do them all at once would just make things glitchy.
>>3490400How so? Can you give an example of how a romance changes plotpoints in such a way that would conflict with another romance?
Have there been worse mandatory updates/downgrades in RPG history than Bethesda's Skyrim and Fallout 4 ones?
Write Japanese...
Fuck off samefagging necrobumper.
Some nips like English, but some nips don't.And thing is, neither read English.It's a bit hilarious, really.
>>3443147If you have played Kingdom Hearts, you already know very well what we mean by “Nomuraism”, right?What they meant by "Japanese" is,perhaps, a synonym for that.
I couldn't even finish Part 1. I knew they were gonna expand the story, but I didn't expect everything they added to be fucking retarded lol. I also didn't expect them to change major plot points that completely change the story-line.
>>3414478What's wrong?I think it looks great UI.Are you idiot?
> Trained NPCs should take cover a lot more now. They should be significantly more aggressive and engage you from longer distances and many other tweaks, give it a try!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fbpUt0OGoHI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JfKrBk_R5rohttps://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/86691The anemic enemies is one of my biggest complaints about the game, and most mods do into the other direction (making the player more agile, stronger, or with better equipment, or buffing allies).
>>3483683Better AI is a start, but you need serious work to unfuck the rest of the combat.NPC recoil is a neat and underappreciated mod, and ammo types injectors are also nice to have.>>3483724>ZOMG IT BREAKS DA LEVELS>actually a few more enemies aggro on the player.You're one dramatic bitch.
>>3483683That song is obnoxious.
>>3484795So I'm forced into a specific playstyle because the map is too small to compliment the mod? That doesn't sound very fun.
>>3484079Skyrim with a ton of mods still runs better than vanilla Oblivion. That game is a janky mess.
>>3483724>a lot of these mods usually break a lot of level layouts by aggro-ing every enemy in a dungeon.It might break the pacing. Let's say the enemies are placed in different spots so you have combat encounters throughout the dungeon, with little breaks inbetween. An AI modification can cause them all to aggro together and leave the rest of the dungeon empty. Not a big deal, especially on replays, but still deviates from the original design (and difficulty)In bethesda games, some enemy spawns are specifically activated only after the player reaches a certain point, to prevent specific enemies from aggroing too early. This could happen due to dungeon layout.And yes sneaking is a band-aid fix, but w/moving at 60% speed isn't a great solution for non-stealth characters.Plus the "AI" mod is mostly placebo, does very little to ACTUALLY enhance the gameplay.
I recently replayed Morrowind for the first time in a decade, and then finished Oblivion for the first time. I'm now going to finish Skyrim for the first time, and see how it stacks up, to contrast the strengths and weaknesses of all three, and consider how the series has progressed and regressed, without the cloud of nostalgia.Few houserules:>no potions or alchemy>no enchanting>no exploits or cheese>vendors sell at 4x and buy at 0.25x, unaffected by speech skill>fast travel only to towns I've already walked to, 50 gold a pop>light, minimalist modding, made a few small ones myselfGonna split up the game into three characters that do different factions, quests, and dungeons, to stay within the archetypes I want to play as, and avoid overleveling the game.>Breton cleric, atronach signMace, shield, and crossbow. Heavy armor and restoration/alteration. College and Dawnguard. Even split magicka/health/stamina.>Imperial paladin, lord sign.Greatsword, bow. Heavy armor and restoration. Main quest and Imperial Legion. Even split health/stamina.>Nord barbarian, lady sign.Battleaxe, light armor. Companions, Stormcloaks, then main quest and the Solstheim content. Pure health. No magic allowed, just facetanking with a giant pool of HP. Only healing available will be natural regen and eating buckets of stew. Going to be pretty metal.Comment too long.

>>3489867>“Good. Come downstairs and get your reward” as if you’d obeyedWell he is the lord of domination, so behaves like that. Not gonna ask for consent. Player character may think of that whatever they want.
>>3489890Perhaps. I was thinking of it like “he ordered me to murder the vigilant in cold blood and I refused to obey”. You can either do what he says, or you can kill the dude when he attacks you, or you can let him kill you, the doors locked so you can’t leave. Rather unsatisfying options, and in the Daedric context, I’d think only the first option should get the “reward”
>>3489895It does make your character feel a bit helpless for a moment, but it's a daedra lord, so kinda makes sense. At least for me it was easy to roll with it. Iirc you can defy him later.
>>3489259>I also recommend NOT taking the slow down block perkThis was good advice, undid it with the console and feels better already
>>3490035Yeah it is better. Enemies have attack animations that you can respond to, which already makes the combat better than Oblivion, where dodging strikes was often impossible. The slow down perk only slows you down if you know how to play. It's good for the skyrim grandmas out there.
JRPGs haven't changed since the 90sWhat's there to be inspired by?
>>3487592>entirely brown partyThat's the audience tho.
>>3487559Xenoblade Chronicle games are a perfect example of jrpgs evolving.
>>3489298>That's the audience tho.No it's not.
>>3487559They don't need to be inspiring any more. they just need to not be as shit as everything else have become and if they haven't changed since the 90's they is always going to be true.
>>3488453DnD is irrelevant to every genre
Childhood is thinking Suikoden is a good series.Adulthood is accepting Legend of Heroes is better in every single way.Better world building, gameplay, story, characters the list goes on and on.
retardation is specifically comparing these two when Suikoden has been long deadAnd in general they don't have more in common with each other than all JRPGs do
>>3486418>And in general they don't have more in common with each other than all JRPGs doOnly real commonality is the fact that each game/arc (Suikoden/Kiseki respectively) is generally located in one country in a consistent setting with a long running "metaplot."
>>3486410I prefer Kiseki myself yes. But to be honest, Kiseki is simply the best game series ever made so...it is what it is.
>>3486454>Kiseki is simply the best game series ever madeIt's true.
How is triangle strategy?
>>3489846That would completely break the game balance, one of the major strength of that game.
>>3489849I will accept your demands on the condition that the loli clown gets replaced with a big tittied and big assed mommy clown.
>>3489846That would be stupid.
>>3489846How? best part of the game is having no generics and each unit having it's own unique gimmick or passive.
>>3489120excellent strategy gameplay, the game is incredibly well balanced to the point where most battles feel overwhelmingly against you at first but end up beatable with the right strategystory is interesting but very long winded, and the characters themselves aren't the most interesting, especially the MCthe music is fantastic except for the spoiler track which is so cheesy its funny, and the artstyle is very divisive but I love it

My wife; Lohse. She is not your wife /vrpg/.
>>3483564We're eskimo brothers then, hi.
>>3483564That's fine. I have to at least know who someone is before I consider marrying them.
>>3483564Nice wife but don't forget there are many girls like her aaaaall over the world.
>>3483564Any girl like this in real life is a massive whore, sorry bud.
>>3489625Wha? Explain.
OK guys I have made a notable discovery about this game, are you ready for this?
>>3489395>>3489915Also read the posts in >>3489392 for a better idea of who he is.
>>3489917lol, I'm the OP of this thread, the first anon you replied to out of those two, and also the anon you've linked to in the other thread.I just did this thread as a little joke cos I noticed something I thought was funny, and took the opportunity to shit on XI a little, but man how the fuck is it even possible to discuss FF on this board (or I suspect any board) without it being drowned out by one sperglord's overwhelming autism? There has to be a way, right?
>>3489132Could Vana'diel be a FF14 shard world?
>>3489915>He's got a knack for details, I'll say that much.The majority of his details are straight up wrong. He tried to do this shit with Xenosaga/Xenogears a few months back and got utterly humiliated.
>>3489960It's a theory. But probably not the same Vana'diel. It would probably be different in some fundamental way.
