Played pic related and got about halfway into chapter 2 (elf village shit) and I have to say this game is pretty ass. Sure it seems cool that you can use a dragon but it controls like shit. So was it all grifters liking shit from youtube or does the game magically get better gameplay out of no where?
>>736218674No, it absolutely does NOT.That idiotic change completely destroys the mood and premise, and makes Nier seem like an utter retard.The whole point of the game is to have a dying world exploiting CHILDREN, molding them into cynical killing machines - the very mirror image of the things they're fighting. This and the whole timeskip no longer exist in the Gestalt version. Similarly, any mentions of romance and even sexual violence were outright deleted from the Western version.Yes, I did play the PS3 Gestalt years ago, and I did enjoy it. But it always felt "off", though I just brushed it off as the game being cheap and rushed low-budget game. Then I started doing some research, realized that it was meant to follow Ocarina Of Time's blueprints, and generally be way more grim in tone ... and I got upset.
>>736219687>keep playing this horrendous game instead of just watching a story playthrough on youtube
>>736218674Nier Replicant was literally a supposed to be a pastiche of Ocarina of TIme's coming of age narrative with a darker atmosphere. That's why you collect the Seven Sages/Sealed Verses to fight Ganondorf/the Shadowlord and save the world and why there's explicitly a forest dungeon, a haunted dungeon, a desert dungeon (with an annoying sequence related to it)That doesn't work when the protagonist is already grown up, nor does the dialogue that you would expect from a teenager sound better coming from a nearly middle-aged man or the fact that most of these places he visits shouldn't be that new to him compared to a literal 15/16 year old travelling to all these exotic places. Literally, the only thing going for Gestalt is Kaine being more aggressive in terms of her VA's performance (Weiss' performance is good in both versions, albeit the English VA is focusing on him being pompous and his Japanese VA makes him out to be a curmudgeonly old man either of which work with his personality). It's either exactly the same like it is in gameplay and general mood or objectively worse like in the most of the relationships Father Nier has or how Yonah sounds like she's 30 years old rather than a child.Gestalt isn't horrible, but it definitely isn't as good as people make it out to be. Replicant makes a lot more sense both as a game and in terms of canon since in Nier Automata, 9S is a manlet because he's based off of teenage Nier rather than (young) adult Nier because he's based off of Brother Nier's personality matrix and Commander White is a man-hating lesbian. It's a product of its time and while not absolute trash, pales in comparison to Replicant.
>>736219752Did you read summaries instead of required reading back in school?
>>736220285I say that >>736219752 as someone who played the game when it first came out.The story is really the only good thing about this, next to the amazing ost.

sure the atmosphere is great and all but the gameplay is just not fun. I don't get why it's still considered as peak ARPG when there are much better alternatives
>>736215289Yeah, its gameplay numbs the brain after a while, but Diablo 2 aesthetics are so good, people actually still playing this game for that reason.
>the gameplay is just not fun>I don't get why it's still considered as peak ARPGisometric arpgs aren't funhades is a straight up improvement on the format>enemies are actually threatening and require reactive gameplay>you get a build online in 10 minutes or less>variety each run keeps things fresh>picked a shitty build by accident? no worries, you'll have a blank canvas next runif you really want diablo style combat try halls of torment for a tighter loop
>>736215795it's also more fun when you're just casually playing it with friends.
>>736215289>game provides zero direction for builds and offers LIMITED respecs per character in a 25+ hour RPG>obviously never get enough points to max out everything so you need to be very selective or you can potentially allocate in a way that makes higher difficulties unbeatableYeah noGreat as the atmosphere and general gameplay loop may be, having to have a guide open for basic level ups is atrocious The remaster should’ve included infinite respecs (buyable with increasingly more currency, but still infinite), because I’m tired of getting too far and realizing I’m hopelessly incorrect because I didn’t respec at level 18 to completely change the direction of my character Also shitty that not every class is viable on higher difficulties Barbarian is supposed to be a very simple introduction to the game, but without picture perfect item drops, you quite literally cannot clear content like Sorc can3 at least has the decency to make everything viable

This is the best Zelda game and it's criminal how terrible the sequels are.
>>736201861The only musou games I've played are hyrule warriors and hyrule warriors age of imprisonment. Wtf happened between these two games, AOI is completely different than what I remember HW to be. I kind of want to try a normal dynasty warriors game, but is origins as simplified as AOI was? The fact that outposts couldn't have just not existed and nothing about the game would change was a huge disapointment. The game was nothing but a boss rush
>>736219000Conversely after cutting my teeth on Wii U it's almost like playing on easy mode doing things in Definitive since it has the 3DS port's toned down rebalanced difficulty.
>>736215216Worse than the other 2Dogshit roster and combat
>>736219032>Wtf happened between these two gamesDynasty Warriors 9 happenedWell i'm not exactly the biggest Warriors connoisseur but the DWs i played doesn't quite cover that same itch of micromaneging the battlefield that HW has, with DW8 being just as much as go from A to B as Age of Calamity was except a lot more exciting, the one that i found most similar to HW was Fire Emblem Three Hopes, it doesn't shy away from making you plan your shit while staring at the map, where to send who dealing with the weapon triangle and all that, the one thing that kinda annoyed me in that game is how much time you spend on the hub doing Three Houses things and not genociding people but i guess it was pretty faithful to FE
>>736220001It's part of why everyone's looking at DW3 Remastered expectedly. The director of DW2 - 6 is back in charge of the franchise and he's openly stated how much he feels the linear point A to point B style DW games weren't as fun or interesting as the battlefield management style.
>yeah, don't bother with 2, 3 is the real sequel anywayany other games for this feel?
Zelda 2 and Simon's Quest are both excellent.

Was the characterization that bad in the original game or am I just remembering it with rose tinted goggles? I'm currently going through the Remake and every character is insufferable. All the main characters are retarded, all the secondary characters are one extremely basic joke that they just repeat straight faced 20 times. I find myself skipping everything just to make it more bearable.
RPG makers used to know that less is more. A blank character is easier to project onto. The story in the game is what the player does. The player should identify with the characters and the best way to do that is to not have narrative.Recent jrpg have insisted on making party members obnoxious. FF7R is unplayable because characters do not shut the fuck up. Dragon Quest XI is the worst by far and the only game I've actively been sexually harassed in.You want characters done right you can look at Rance. Instead of bullshit faggotry the character is actually an ideal to shape the player and make them a better person.
>>736219528He also didn't write anything of value since FFX or the original VII
>>736218465>Was the characterization that bad in the original gameNo>t.played the original for the first time in 2017
Just finished it the other week, all the main cast other than Barret were great. You are probably just gay and a zoomer to boot.
>>736218465No, they flanderized the fuck out of the characters.Gets worse in Rebirth, if you can believe it.
This is the video game equivalent of walking up and down the aisle at the grocery store and running your hand across all the boxes on the shelves
This is the hero/protagonist of the Mega Man Star Force games, Geo Stelar. they're pretty fun games and their collection just released, you should play themdiscuss the series
>>736216289Q2, calling it right now
>>736209842I'm glad that 3 was able to end the way that it did. I'd love a fourth game but at least his character arc feels resolved as is.
>>736219883Yes, and I hope they don't undo it.What they could do is dive into Mega's past. Mega's kind of in a weird spot just permanently hanging out with this kid
Seeing these is very nostalgic

>>736211967I would, but then I'd have to play mahjong. Also, mahjong fight girls has the better girls and insay that with confidence.
Why does the art style look like complete ass? If you told me this was a mobile game, I'd believe it. How hard is it to just fucking take inspiration from HoMM3 and just update the graphics a bit? What a missed opportunity.

Can /v/ help me make a decision between two gaming laptops? the competition is between the Alienware 16 Aurora and the HP Omen 16. I've gotten a VERY good deal on both of them, almost 500 off, so don't bring up desktops being cheaper, they aren't in this scenario.>Alienware SpecsIntel Core 7 240H - Geforce RTX 5050 - 16 gigs Ram - 1tb storage - 120 hz screen>HP Omen SpecsIntel Core i7 13620H - GeForce RTX 4060 - 16 gigs Ram - 1tb storage - 144 hz screenThe main difference I can see between the two is the screen quality and the graphics card. The Alienware only being 120 hz is going to be a big problem for competitive gaming, I would need to get a 2nd monitor eventually to prevent ghosting. From what I understand, the HP Omens 4060 has more raw power than the 5050, but the Alienwares 5050 has more capabilities for frame generation and DLSS which may patch the difference or make it better than the 4060I also believe Alienware has a better build quality and internal cooling system, and the hardware will physically survive longer Which one should I get?
>>736219732I would say the Omen is pretty good.One thing that you have to keep in mind always with laptops (even non gaming ones) is thermals: so how hot will the system generate before the fans kick in *at all*. That may seem obvious but most people tend to think whatever the computative "horsepower" before anything else.I know you said "no desktop mention" but I will have to for the reason of cooling and heat generation: because of the form factor, you have to settle on the coolest components because you can't do anything else except make sure that the surface is getting exposure to cool, direct air (one of those "laptop coolers" would be a good option at once to get) and when you operate in your room, make sure your room's temperature is cool to where there's no ambient "baseline" that causes the temperature runtime be higher than it should be.> TL;DR: go with the Omen.
>>736220031Yes
>>736219732>Gaming laptopJust buy a console, thirdie.
Specs wise the 4060 one is better, you're not gonna get anything out of MFG on a mobile 5050. Make sure to check that the GPU is running at full wattage, many times laptops will hard limit TDP on components which will completely fuck up performance.
>>736220059Yes, my last one was a Hasee T8 with a i5-12450H and an RTX 3060 that I got on the 4th of July sale for 600 bucks. it was a beast of a machine while it lasted, had high fps in every game I played, but overheated like a motherfucker and eventually the motherboard died after less than a year. had very high wattage on the 3060
