thoughts on Star Ocean Second Story R?
Pretty good. A tiny shame that some of the more silly background elements and experimental camera angles didn't survive, but it's understandable. Easy to play, easy to break, easy to clear, easy to platinum, good times. Also, it was a significant release for my personal life at the time, so that's worth something to my assessment.
>>720788591Fun game. If you know what you're doing even Universe mode isn't too hard. New items break the game, but there are equally as broken new bosses. Dias still the fuggin GOAT
One of the better remakes in recent years. I would not be upset if this team tackled Xenogears; they basically have the art style down already
it's really good but /v/ at large didn't play it because they are poor and brown.We did have like a week of really great threads about it though. I might even like it more the OG and, the OG was one of the very few games I beat multiple times in that era. That being said, I do take some points off for translating Ashton's dragons into.. this, when the original dub didn't butcher them.
Pretty boring desu.After the 2nd dungeon I already felt overpowered and got bored of it shortly after reaching the 2nd continent or whatever.No strategy at all for battles, just pump points into stats and mash to kill everything without much resistance.
>>720788591I was a huge fan of the original, and I think they did a decent job. The QoL improvements are nice, but the 3D designs can't quite capture the fantastic colors of the original. Magic is broken, in a "really not that good" way. >>720788997Yeah, the new translation is significantly less endearing.
>>720789108>just pump points into stats
I really liked it. SO2 was always one of the more underrated PS1 RPGs in my opinion, and the remake is generally an across-the-board improvement. Some people really dislike the art style they went with, but that's the sort of thing you'll know where you stand on after seeing a couple screenshots. It's not gonna sneak up on you after you've spent the money. I'd recommend it to anyone who likes JRPGs.
>>720788591A lot shorter than I remember, but there's nothing wrong with that. I absolutely love the new art.
It was good, but I got almost all the way to the end and just fucking dropped it. I got up to the part where you get the weapons that can fight the 12 dickheads who are trying to end reality or whatever. The story really gets stupid in the second disc/half, i can kinda see why i never finished it despite numerous attempts as a kid. I should probably beat it someday but I'm not sure i ever will
It's okay. Basically one big sidegrade compared to the original.>>720788825>there are equally as broken new bossesThey're all a joke.
>>720789567oh fuck it's Robert Cop
>>720788997/v/ spends more time talking about what yoshit-p eats for breakfast than about games
