What JRPGs did you pick up from the Steam Winter sale?
>>729101329I want to pick this one up, I know about \>muh remakesbut honestly, it seems cool enough, and I love Fire Emblem.
>>729101329Starlight Legacy is a mix of GBA pokemon and classic final fantasy. So far it's comfy.
>>729101329A new general?
>>729101461There's nothing wrong with remakes/remasters if it's done well. That board meme is retarded; just use your discernment when deciding on a remake/remaster.
>>729101630tactics looks fine no?
>>729101838Yes, it's good. Personally, I'd wait for a steeper discount.
>>729101329Expedition 33
>>729102029Did you play the DLC yet?
Digimon World: Next Order
>>729101838the VA is well done. I also enjoyed the hard mode as a long time FFT enjoyer. I enjoyed reading all the posts when the game came out about the retartds getting filtered by it here, too
>>729102107god I hate Baten Kaitos
>>729102107How are the older digimon games?
>>729101878hmm its jewenix, they wont do one till next year big sale>>729102150>the VA is well done. I also enjoyed the hard mode as a long time FFT enjoyer. I enjoyed reading all the posts when the game came out about the retartds getting filtered by it here, toois it harder than fire emblem?
>>729102349On the new mode, yes. Lunatic FEs vary wildly between entries, though. I would say they're about the same. Endgame FFT on Tactician is way harder than the beginning though, which is different from most games where it gets easier. The knights and mages the game throws at you are monstrous.
>>729102197Hey, fuck you Didn't ask>>729102274Enjoyed world one myself enough never did beat 2 though that shit was too grueling, never got around to world 3 actually
>>729102349>JewenixTrue, I want the DQ-III HD2D remake and it's only -40% off after a year. I'll just wait for the trilogy discount.
Picked up Secret of Varonis. Straight up a carbon copy of the old Final Fantasy Legends games with some QoL slapped on top (and that's a good thing)
>>729102579hey look, I drew a banana cardit says your game sucks!
>>729102640I downloaded DQ-III HD2D remake for free 99 plus tip. Fitgirl repack. No viruses, and Square obviously invested all the anti-theft in Denuvo. All the content is there.
>>729101329anyone else come to these threads trying to find new games to play because you feel like you've already tried most things worth picking up already? obviously that's not the case I'm just in a bit of a rut with what I want to play. Just beat crystal project and wanted to find some more JRPG like things I haven't tried before. And there really isn't much that looks good. Astlibra was fucking awesome, FnH 1+2, Look Outside. I'm thinking about trying scarmonde.
>>729102859I can't get into KH since the disneyshit filters the fuck out of me. Should I just get the whole collection for $50.
I got SMT 3, Suikoden 5, Aselia, and Look Outside on the ol' docket. I don't really know which one to start next. I think I might go with Aselia since I got halfway through back in the day and never completed it.
>>729102830rotten ass banana more like it
>>729103120>Suikoden 5Huh? Did they remaster it for modern systems? It's my favorite.
>>729103441Nope, I just never got around to playing it. I am going to use https://gbatemp.net/threads/suikoden-v-usa-hd-remaster-widescreen-texture-pack.609820/though

I'm trying to play through Persona 3 FES but I'm getting so bored, so I booted up Trails in the Sky for the first time and I'm liking it
>>729103727>>729103901>>729104280thanks, chat gpt
>>729104559OG or remake?
How's Unicorn Overlord?
>>729105183The original
>>729101529Where do you get the Pokemon bit from?
>>729106031The overworld and map
>>729101329Not Steam but im playing Xenosaga Episode I
>>729106785Are you using the undub patch from archive.org and the hd texture pack from panda_venom?
>>729101461It's not really like fire emblem. But go ahead and get it.
>>729103112if you can embrace the cringe with all your heart it's genuinely fun, though going whole hog on it like that is a bit much. if you can't pirate for whatever reason, just get the 1.5 + 2.5 remix; that's got 1, 1.5, 2, and a couple of others, with 1 and 2 being the standouts of the whole franchise. if you don't like 1 you probably won't like the rest, if you like 2 then tough shit the rest of the games are all worse
>>729108431I could just emulate them too. I'll probably just do that and ignore all the filler.
>>729103064what's FnH? can't find anything that fits
>>729108673NTA but I think it's fear and hunger
>>729106951Im using the undub patch but not the hd textures, i was trying PCSX2 shaders tho
>>729108762This is the most current undub: https://archive.org/details/xenosaga_ep1_undub_patchHere's the hd texture pack: https://gbatemp.net/threads/xenosaga-trilogy-usa-hd-remaster.612395/
>>729108753ohh yeah that makes sense, thanks anon
Wanna try a new game. Any suggestions?
>>729110575I can suggest anything from >>729103727 >>729103901 and >>729104280 plus forgot to mention Threads of Fate, The Witch and the Hundred Knights, and SMT IV Apocalypse. What are you in the mood for?
Post some JRPGs on steam with Create a Character, please
>>729101539It includes xenoblade and fire emblem that's enough for troons to bump it over and over
>>729111047Code vein? What level of character creation do you want?
>>729102274Cyber Sleuth is comfy for the vibes and then halfway through it becomes a much shittier ff8 story. The "villain" is actually pretty cool though, can't hate on him at all.World 1 is great for a fun ride exploring wherever and having fun. Re:Digitize has similar vibes but it's a bit more handholdy which can be a good thing. Next Order is grinding autism hell. I didn't personally like it but I can see other people liking it. It feels more like an mmo if that makes sorta sense. Survive is okay but it's a really slow grind where nothing happens most of the time. I'd put it at CS > Re:Digitize > World 1 > Next Order = Survive (Survive might feel better on a blind first run desu. I only rated it this low because it's a replay for me and I remember too much where nothing's exciting but it's too fucking slow to get to any of the diverging parts or even "good" parts)
>>729111215Any, I already own Code Vein btw.
>>729110934Looking for turn based ideally as long as it's not Final Fantasy since I've been playing those most of my life and I want to try something else. I just finished Vengeance actually but didn't really like demon negotiations. Really up for anything at this point
>>729111542How's Code Vein?
>>729111608Have you ever played Tengai Makyou Ziria and Oriental Blue? Both received English translations.
>>729108889Thanks anon
>>729111608Etrian Odyssey, Monster Hunter Stories, Xenoblade Chronicles X, God Eater, White Knight Chronicles, Fire Emblem Awakening and Fates all have varying levels of character customization..
>>729111756No actually. But they look interesting I'll probably try oriental blue first, thanks anon!
>>729111349Thanks I'll give it a shot
>>729111629It's an easier soulslike because of the companion who'll take aggro or rez you at times, the meat of the gameplay comes from mixing abilties and passives from blood codes which lets combat be a bit more faster paced despite having a stamina system. If you're familiar with God Eater you should be familiar with how the story of the game works, it's pure wholesome nakama bonding the entire way through. Customization for characters is good, clothing is very limited however since you can't customize outfits; you're stuck with presets that you can colour. Also no facial hair for male characters.
>>729111608Octopath Traveler IITriangle StrategySuikoden I & IIEtrian OdysseyBaten Kaitos I & IIChained EchoesCrystal ProjectDark Deity IIDisgaea 2Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark PrinceEiyuden Chronicles
>>729112268Please don't recommend Eiyuden Chronicles. That shit is boring.
>>729112079....which one
>>729112349There is a fan-made difficulty/enhancement mod that is pretty good. Definitely improved the experience imo.
>>729112482Cyber Sleuth
>>729112626That doesn't fix the shitty story
>>729112778oh enjoy! :D
I was thinking about getting Rebirth but I'm sure they'll make a trilogy pack once the last part releases.
Oh my god, I think I finally understand why I hate Pokémon.>the crap of completing the Pokédex.>Pokémon that need to be traded to evolve.>The annoying grinding.>Pokémon that are exclusive to a version.>Pokémon you can only get at events or that are a pain to catch.>That damn competitive scene>That type chart with advantages and disadvantages.How awful.Any RPGs I can use to replace Pokémon?
>>729113245Monster Hunter Stories? Digimon?
>>729113245>the annoying grindinghuh
>>729113317But I'm looking for an RPG where leveling up is ultra easy, without any kind of collecting, where there aren't characters with advantages and disadvantages, and where you have to grind and everything is given to you effortlessly.
>>729113245Yeah if you hate collecting monsters you're not going to like a video game about collecting monsters. Probably should have seen that one coming.
>>729101329This image was made to piss me off specifically.>Xenoblade 2 as the face of the xenoblade series>Final fantasy 7 for all the normalfags>Shit emblem>Dragon mediocre 11eugh
>>729113653Witch Spring R
I have nothing against Sugiyama. Ideon's soundtrack was fucking killer. But the last DQ game I played was 11. (I played 1,2,3,5,9 before but don't remember much of 5 and 9, 123 were much more recent) and I've been doing DQ3HD -> DQ1HD -> Builders and I swear to god I've been hearing the exact same fucking soundtrack for 4 fucking (possibly 6 games) straight already. I get it but holy fuck
Picked up Metro Quester Osaka. Pretty kino post apocalyptic RPG in which you scavenge for shit.
>>729113680Yes, you're right, collectible video games aren't for me.Are there any video game genres that would be ideal for me as an alternative to Pokémon?
>>729113859i second this
why does Metis learn sexy dance? What are the implications of Aigis's emotional state come to life learning this move?
>>729113859This. It got a free Epilogue DLC update a few months ago. The game itself is like 30 hours long with the DLC adding another 10 hours. I replayed it a few times to get all the things.
>>729113859>>729114056>>729114247There's a problem.I don't have a Nintendo Switch, and I hate Steam.Do you have anything for Sega Genesis, Game Boy Advance, PlayStation 1, PSP, or Sega Dreamcast?

>>729114860I only have low-end devices (a tablet and my smartphone), so I have to emulate retro consoles.
>>729115009>>729115108
>>729115108So what are you going to play?
>>729114860>>729115452Do you have anything with these characteristics?>RPG without grinding>RPG without magic>RPG without fairies and magical creatures>RPG where it's impossible to get lost or stuck>RPG where leveling up is ultra-easy and effortless>Ultra-linear RPG with no exploration>RPG where you have everything from the start and it's always overpowered
>>729115520JFC, fuck off. I've catered to you enough already.
>>729115520Play a VN, retard.
>>729115582I've also realized that RPGs aren't for me.Are there any alternative video game genres to RPGs that would fit what I'm looking for?
>>729115768>>729115705
>>729115520Imagine Party Babyz seems right up your alley
>>729103727which are the shortest of thesei dont have 500 hours to spare
>>729101329have to finish tales of grace f and start chained echoes, so no jrpgs for now…
>>729115520>it's this same retard againYou don't want an RPG, stop coming into RPG threads.
>>729116010Play Barkley Shut Up and Jam GaidenIt's like 5 hours long
>>729116182>>729115768
>>729116010This >>729113859 and The Legend of Nayuta are fairly short.
>>729116257>>729115705
>>729116154Both are good. Have fun, anon.
>>729116332I don't just want visual novels.I want something that isn't an RPG and that meets my needs.>>729115520
>>729116010Chrono Trigger
>>729116451Then kill yourself, nigger. You're a fucking insult to any effortpost wasted on your dumbass. Fuck outta here.
>>729116451I’m going to be real with you, i don’t think there isa rpg what is going to fit your needs.
>>729115520Space Invaders.
>>729116010E33 main story is 25-30hours max so you could try that one.
>>729116010Final Fantasy Legend I and II. They're designed to be beaten in around 10~12 hours.
>>729116618Heh, based.
>>729116553And are there any video games (other than visual novels) that fit what I'm looking for?>>729114351>>729115520
>>729116451maybe the South Park™: The Fractured But Whole™?its not really rpg and is very linear with minimal exploration
>>729116709Tetris, pong, and pacman.
