Remember Lilymon from Digimon? This is her in 2025. Feel of yet?

Outside of simple level design and the farm feeling like an afterthought, I'm geniunely impressed with Time Stranger. It's probably the most solid Digimon RPG game yet.

Now I just need a World game with the budget and good level design and I'd be set.

Welcome back to our ongoing screenshop LP of "4.6 Billion Year Story: The Theory of Evolution".

Previous thread: >>729552896

>What is this game?
The original JRPG predecessor of E.V.O. Search For Eden for the SNES, released on the PC-98, developed by Almanic and published by the JRPG gods themselves Enix. The game follows the perspective of a mortal creature chosen by Gaia, (You), to shepherd Earth through the entirety of its evolutionary history over the course of billions of years. You must save innocent wildlife from danger and clear obstacles to the world's continued evolution, while at the same time thwarting the machinations of a sadistic alien ojou-sama from outer space.

>What's the gameplay?
Battle other creatures, spam the Fight command in repetitive JRPG encounters, gain EVO (exp), and transform yourself into new species, doing your best to climb to the end of the evolutionary chain and avoiding the trap of genetic dead ends.

>can I play it too?
Just look up the ROM on MyAbandonware, then download the patch (along with the translated manual full of lore) here: https://46okumen.com/projects/e-v-o-the-theory-of-evolution/

>where is tonight's thread starting?
As you may remember, our last session stopped right after we witnessed the extinction of the dinosaurs. After taking shelter in Gaia's cave (no mammals allowed), we emerged from hibernation to find the planet frozen after the asteroid's impact debris blocked out the sun.

I kinda hate how this game ends. It sidelines most of the characters you spent time with for a conflict you thought was resolved half an act ago. Since Verso acts as the player character, any further character development you did at the team at camp is thrown away, which is really awkward.
There could have been something interesting for the game to demonstrate about how the rest of the team is sidelined by the two painters' fighting over the fate of the world for their own selfish ends, but to me, it didn't actually feel that intentional. Lune, Sciel, Monoco and Esquie just feel forgotten, like they were always party filler the game tricked you into investing in.

The 3DO was expensive because it was just a standard and the consoles were made by 3rd parties who had to make a profit from selling the consoles alone, so the prices were unusually high

>>729627470
During the era when studios and publishers were desperately pushing for multiplats in order to cover their losses and the untenability of their business model, Microsoft streamlined porting with APIs like Xinput and GFWL, which resulted in an uptick in games, meanwhile Nintendo had its own games and Sony was ass to develop for.
As soon as the industry dysentery of 7th gen died off, so too did the success of Xbox, especially once generic licensed engines made generic porting to all platforms trivial.

my issue with it is that quite often its more fun without the other people.
the number of times i would load into a server, go to a mission zone, and find the place literally picked clean, then need to wait a solid hour, or try reload into a new server.
and the engine is just as unstable at fo4, but you cant fix it with the console when a quest bugs out, or crucial NPC phases through the ground.
and worst of all, getting one shot in your power armor by some guy halfway across the map while doing a big co-op mission like the nuke events.

slop

PS2 and PS3 games objectively look better than modern UE5 slop.
Look at how clean and deliberate the art direction is in them.
and then look at the grainy smeared mess in modern UE5 defered slop.
buggy, grainy pixel artifacts everywhere, pixelated fishnet hair, dead lifeless eyes, terrible lighting, broken grainy shadows that jitter around, poor visibility, engine is incapable of rendering transparencies.

Give me painted texture PS2 graphics like Rayman or KH2.
Give me smooth clean stylized rendering like Ninja Gaiden 2.

Never give me defered UE5 slop. that runs like shit and literally looks worse than ps2 games.
Stop buying this modern trash. You're contributing to the downfall of art and the games industry.

This is dishonest because the image on the right is downscaled / interlaced / filled with any number of other UE5 problems from devs who don't know how to optimize their games to look good while still running well. You always need mods to fix that for them. I wonder why they don't just create a new job title for ensuring they don't fuck up the graphics (via incompetence) and hire modders for it
