the promised future that never materialized
>>722642789SO3 needs a full reboot with more sci-fi planets and a retcon of the original ending
>>722642789Star Ocean 3 was a game and I'm tired of people pretending it wasn't.
>>722642789Story and writing aside, is this a fun jrpg? As in a good videogame? I've suffered through the very worst of jrpg writing because the game was still good (Tales of Graces f, Tales of Zestiria although that one the gameplay didn't get good until the last like 15% of the game)
>>722643025it was fun 20 years ago
>>722643025Oh absolutely it's bar none the best entry in the entire series that perfectly captures that early 2000s atmosphere and charm from it's era that other games seem to miss just watching the intro gives you chillshttps://youtu.be/XwPsQhSHcQk?si=jhAOolMJkKKGOuXa
>>722642789What do you call this aesthetic
>>722643506Optimistic futurism.
>>722643025Still the peak of the series and no amount of goonslop is gonna convince me otherwise.
>>722643506aero VII
>>722643506It's called time for me to replay Universe for the sixth time.
>>722642789This could be dingdong hearts or xenogay
>>722643506A world without niggers nor kikes
>>722645425CHECKED AND KEK'D
>>722645425But anon... THERE'S AN ENTIRE PLANET FULL OF THEM!
>>722645425I FUCKING KNEEL
>>722642789>beach starting area>is a great gameHave any games got this wrong
>>722645425Thats a strong 5, Im checking that 5. Fuck niggers.
why are ps2 jrpgs so long i tried to play this and dropped it around the knight area or was that rogue galaxy
>>722645850Development didn't cost millions of dollars and Nips were generally quite comfortable in the PS1/PS2 era development wise which meant longer games. The HD era absolutely destroyed them.
>>722646013Its just true.Currently playing growlanser 4.>1999 Growlanser PlayStation>2001 Growlanser II: The Sense of Justice PlayStation 2>2001 Growlanser III: The Dual Darkness PlayStation 2>2003 Growlanser IV: Wayfarer of Time PlayStation 2Pic related are the playtimes.Its a nice game. Nice amount of fanservice but its a bonus, not the main pull in.Cool long ass story. I think some games have like 30 endings.3d really did fuck everything over. Now it takes 10 years to make a game that looks ugly and is the worst slop possible.Like 10 years and nobody used the time to create a cool world etc.Back then they had some unique ideas. Its amazing they came up with that in that short amount of time.
>>72264350690% wealth tax
>>722642789>friend swears this is the best SO>buy it on PS4 store since i love 1&2 and re-releases>fucking ps4 ps2 emulator is fucking shit and get ripped offfuck you playstation, never buying a ps5
For me? Its the Xenosaga cities. So clean, so nice.
>>722643025My favorite game of all time. Play it.
>>722646429Then who would build all those buildings?
>>722643025I remember liking it gameplay wise but it certainly feels slower than something like the Tales of games, lots of recovery frames after attacks and I remember combos not being very fluid. Still worth a try though
>>722651124companies hired by the government with the tax revenue they get from the wealthy
>>722642789Why God?
>>722642789the world where some teenager kid can learn how to SIDEKICK and open DIMENSION DOOR?
>>722651415The wealthy wouldn't exist if their earnings were garnished that much. Everyone would end up as middle and lower-class workers who'd take the brunt of these taxes.
>>722651124The Nanny State
>>722651801>The wealthy wouldn't exist if their earnings were garnished that much.10% of what the Wealthy own is still enough to be wealthy
Did you work for it or just took it for granted?
>>722651801Fake argument. The US flourished the most when upper income tax brackets reached almost 90%.
>>722643506The future that's actually promised Hope you fags are ready for the same old soulless buildings with barely evolving technology for decades
>>722643025top tier jrpg, low tier plot, impossibly difficult to master battle system that is fun at any level>>722651362it's cuz you're meant to control all 3 characters at once. hence autoblock when not moving
>>722651840Doesn't matter, inequal tax brackets will always trickle down to lower and lower classes as greater societal wealth goes to government institutions that keep spending more and more. Society is built on a foundation of incentive after all, and someone's gotta incentivize the other.In this kind of scenario, the government has simply replaced the wealthy, and unlike an opt-in capitalist system where people are free to buy and support what they want, under socialism people are forced to buy and support what the government wants.
>>722642789This is now a pre-2010's sci fi jrpg aesthetic thread
>>722643506https://youtu.be/UO1dyznVrTYPure soul, I used to spend hours listening to this, holy fuck just to that synth. zoomers will never understand.
>>722645683canonically beast are niggers but at least their IQ is high enough to maintain an advanced futuristic civilization albeit you could get shredded apart by any one of these niggas if you piss them off and force them to genoblast
>>722642789When are we going to see nostalgia baiters revive this aesthetic? We've had the pixelshit and low poly revivals, it's high time early 2000s hopecore came back
Frutigerfags are the most annoying subsculture of the past years, even more than troons and palestine crusaders
>>722649860
>>722642789Fuck this, some old Swiss town or Iceland is much more comfy. Places, where time stops and nothing never ever happens, tranquility.
What are the best games for this aesthetic?
>>722654907taste of tboy pussy aesthetic
>that difficulty jump from disk 1 to disk 2>all those hours spent inventing>wasted
>>722643506Personally I get the same nice feeling from it as a beach aesthetic.

FFXIII series was the peak of this look
>>722660234i've been meaning to play them but i heard they don't work that well on pc
>>722660234
>>722660863I finished all three of them using pirated copied on my mid tier 2014 spec PC back in 2020 and they all ran fine at 1080p/60 while on the highest settings. I think only LR struggled and that was in battles whenever there was a ton of effects.There's a bunch of settings you can tweak to get the best out of them, just google around since I last played them 5 years ago so I can barely remember but I don't recall them having issues running. There were other more glaring issues with those games...

>>722661870>HD2Dslop>90% of the game is generic medieval shitOff topic
>>7226463231990-2006ish was really a golden age for JRPG's. I don't think there will ever be another time period like it.
>>722661389cool thanks
>>722649860This game looks really nice upscaled
>>722642789I'm sick of you complaining. Don't make threads. That image is worthless.
>>722642789see that city? you can't go there
>>722643025>Story and writing aside, is this a fun jrpg? As in a good videogame?It definitely fucking isI remember spending hundreds of hours including the insane post game stuff
>>722643025It is but if you can't detach yourself from the plot you will ragequit.
>>722662061>stop having hope or dreamsLOL No!
>>722660234FFXIII makes me want to vomit, so no
>>722662938>I have been programmed by internet herd mentality and cannot think for myselfThanks for letting us know
>>722661939>shit eating retarded niggerfaggot>doesn't know what 2DHD actually isIt's just low poly backgrounds with sprite characters like a lot of PS1 games used to do. 2DHD is Square Enix specifically, and this wasn't even developed by them. You're a fucking retard who doesn't know what you're talking about, and no amount of danage control will make whatever nonsense you're about to spit out about "it's basically the same!" true.
>>722660863https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Final_Fantasy_XIIIget the ffxiii fix patch and you're pretty much good to go - if you encounter anything else this will tell you what to dobasically anytime you have issues or wonder about a PC version of a game just go to the pc gaming wiki and it'll tell you 99% of what you need to know
>>722654907You sound very young.
>>722643025Even on release, dungeon lenght and lack of savepoints was incredibly annoying. I had many situations of playing for a long time, never find a save point, and be forced to shutdown the console because I had leave the house for whatever reason.Fucking hated that. I would probably enjoy the game more now with save states.
Environmentalist futurepunk
>bully some rich fat bastard until he begs for his life and gives away treasure>kills him anyways after>”That was fun”Why is Fayt like this?
>>722668445haha his name is Fat
>>722661968Yeah, it was over so quickly.So many games though, my backlog is long.I just hope AI in the future can give accurate sequels and catch the particular vibe.Its sad that even if they oldheads come back together its not the same anymore.At best its a emulation of what it once was. Can only imagine what it must have been like to live in japan in that period.Now everything is just shit.
