post JRPGs that have a good story AND good gameplay, not just one or the other.
>JRPG with good gameplayDoes such a thing exist? Do fans even want this?
>>729358481you are in every single jrpg thread reminding us how much you hate them
Clair-Obscur : Expedition 33
>>729359479parry slop is not good gameplay
>>729358481octopath and bravely default are pretty close to good gameplay, but their stories suck...
>>729360516>close to good gameplay>story sucksthe absolute state of JRPGs
my nigga Expedition 33: Clair Obscur
>>729357780It sure ain't that sack of crap, FFX is a joke.
>>729360807quite literally the peak of the genre thoughbeit
>>729360383post how many Atluslop games you played
>>729360901finished P3 FES (6/10)played about 10 hours of Metaphorfinished Catherine (10/10 but not a JRPG)
>>729357780>Turn based>Encounters every 3 steps>Tunnel simulator>Sphere grid which is even more broken than drawingGood gameplay alright.
>>729361186How are either of those broken?
>>729360516>pretty close to good gameplayWhat do they do differently?
>>729361186>turn BASED>flee has a 100% chance and the ability No Encounter exists>a linear journey is quite befitting for the plot of the game>an interesting progression system that gets you more involved in your characters' stat growth and ability acquisition than most other games. bonus points for offering 2 versions that accomplish different experiences. bonus bonus points for letting you beat the game without gaining a single stat
>>729361320they let you store up your turns to take multiple actions in a row. and just by virtue of having a semblance of sane class balance and enemy difficulty scaling makes them better than most games in the genre
>>729361557are you talking about bravely 1 and octo 1?or any of their sequels? or all of them?only played a little bit of bravely 1. kept hearing how octo 2 made 1 obsolete but idk anything about that.
>>729361631>leave JRPGs to me
>>729361747JRPG = Turn-basedThe J stands for turn
>>729361747100%'d both and i'd say Automato barely passes as good gameplay and Replicant doesn't. Enjoyed both for other reasons though.KH2FM mogs both hard in terms of gameplay.
>>729357780Dragon Quest 8Paper Mario
>>729360891Not with garbage designs like this
Make way... Make way...
>saves your genre from 100 hour snore-fests with no innovation and no design>does it all without introducing shallow quick-time eventsBASED
>>729362315Undertale is not an RPG and no one can convince me otherwise.
>>729359479Gameplay was ultra shit though.
>>729362409RPG = numbeR uP GameAs you can see, the LV number went up here.
>>729362058X/X-2 genuinely have some of the worst fashion disasters in the series which is really saying something. I think FFXIV A Realm Reborn is the only competition with the baffling gear design choices like salmon pink oven mitts and leopard print BDSM leotards.
>>729362848memorable though + Rikku and Lulu make up for it
>make a nigga named nooj.......fucking NOOJ>make him look like thistetsuya must have been blazing 25/7
>>729357780Terrible post game though
>>729363015Why do you think so? My only complaint is that the Dark Aeons are too easy once you stat max, it would've been good if they forced you to use more strategy. Dark Bahamut was really good though.
>>729362848For me, it’s the wedding scene where Seymour has both his gravity defiant hair antennae shoved through the front of his RuneScape gnome hat. Laughed uncontrollably when I saw that, and every other person I’ve introduced the game to over the decades of my life has had the exact same reaction.
>>729357780FFX is the most overrated FF in the series, 5/10 from me
>>729362058Why you dissing my nigga O'aka like that?
>>729362058>O'aka'd in the cloaca
>>729361747Replicant doesn't have good gameplay and Automata has a garbage story.
I wish Shoopuffs were real.
