Ahhh.... The good ol' days.
>>730833148The best starter JRPG on the market.
>>730833148That music is fucking baller.
>>730833148This shit was mindblowing when it came out
>>730833148Mia has big PP now
>>730833148Imagine if Camelot was allowed to make something besides Mario sports these days
>>730833148Mia's PP..
>>730834684id suck mia's pp
>>730834105I'm glad Sakuraba still makes music for them, I hope Fever's soundtrack has some good not-JRPG battle themes toohttps://youtu.be/rUvGu6OwWCY?si=L6635NCptdggF1bk
>>730833148Why was Golden Sun abandoned while Xenoblade thrived? Nintendo could've easily had two flagship JRPGs.
>>730834105>Sakuraba's best music comes from outside his main series (tales of)weird
>>730834917They think it's more lucrative to have Camelot strictly churn out sports games.
>>730834973The source is my ass, but supposedly Sakuraba is restricted on the music he can compose for Trails Of, and they keep telling him to just write the same stuff. I'll believe it since his work on other games shows he has a much wider range.
>>730834980GBA Camelot games were great though
>>730834963>And you got to remember that RPGs are an expensive genre to makeThe fuck they are. RPGs are one of the cheapest genres to make if you aren't doing square style movie games. There is a reason it's THE genre random dudes in their basement make.
>>730835050my headcanon is that every women in video games is futa
>>730835050you dont know that
>>730834917Camelot tried with GS3 but it wasn't very successful and the company didn't upscale for full 3D RPG development. >>730835192you are retarded
>>730835264>my headcanon is that every women in video games is trannykys
>>730835264Every woman except Kaine.
>>730835121You're not crazy, I also remember an interview where he said they expected "Tales of" music from him. I assume at this point he's as motivated working on those games as the rest of Bamco, which is not at all.
>>730833148>GARET'S SWORD LETS OUT A HOWL >AQUA SOCKThat had to be a typo for Aqua Shock, right? That's about all I remember about this game.
>>730835370no i said futacant you read, retard?
>>730835483No, sock like "sock it to 'em"
i don't give a shit what the public consensus is on Dark DawnI loved all three titles And DD gave us Himi and Sveta, so that alone justifies whatever qualms people toss and turn over
>>730835490youre never going to be a woman or even pass for one. please hang yourself
>>730833148I never really understood the Djinn system as a kid. I just spammed the Djinn attacks not realizing that active Djinn provide buffs and change your spells.
>>730835530Xenoblade's existence isn't why Golden Sun is dead, calm down retard
>>730835565you're not alone it took me a while to realize djinn lowered or raised your stats was wondering why i got one shot on late stage bosses
>>730835546i dont wanna be a women
>>730835565I was the retard that pronounced the "D" in "Djinn".
Shining Force 3 also pulls off a similar look. The concept art with chibi models is pretty soulful.
>>730833148I played on emulator and used save states, I saved during the dragon fight but I had no way of beating it because I was too weak, and I didn't had any other save states so I had to restart the whole game. Comment and subscribe to my blog.
Was Issac's son really a furry?
>>730833148It's not old, this is like 2001 or 2002.
>>730836096Would you not be in his situation?
>>730833148these games sucked. extremely verbose and the dungeons were slogs. The best thing about them were the tight as fuck battle system and quick battles but everything else was retarded. I beat the first game and then tried to play through the second one and it just became too much fucking trouble. The ending wasn't even that fucking good either after watching a playthrough of the rest of the game. >durr the real bad guy was the fuckin eyeball from the beginning you were a le pawn!fuck you. it was telegraphed from the fucking very beginning of the first game.
>>730834917Nintendo actually fully owns Xenoblade you dingus
1 - good2 - still good3 - abysmal dogshit
>>730833148>purposefully engages in a 1v4 while his powers are getting nerfed by the lighthousebased or retarded?
>>730834917from ninty's POV xenoblade is an epic AAA game that rivals FF7 and persona , while golden sun is a 2d game from a portable console that 2 cats played.
>>730835891Sega need to quit being fags and remaster this already
>>730833148golden sun was fucking awesome and the people who whine about purple prose are add-ridden retards
>>730834754>I'm glad Sakuraba still makes music for themall his shit since Tales of the Abyss sounds the fucking same>shitty midi guitarshe sticks out in kid icarus uprising and smash ultimate like a sore thumb
>>730836195>quarter of a century ago>not old
How am I suppose to know this without looking up?
>>730833148I still stand that is is an amazing JRPG that others could learn from.>Fun job system that rewards exploration and experimenting>Magic is usable outside of battle, THIS shit should be done more, from solving puzzles in dungeons, to exploration in towns to just do fun shit like read minds>FAST battles, a lot of shit can be fast forwarded like almost no other JRPG, it's done on the fly and not some lame option that needs to be toggled in a menu outside of battle>Cool setting and world that's not obvious at the start, the fact that it takes place in a flat Earth is amazing, few JRPGs go above and beyond since most rely on the usual world structure (Xenoblade 1 and Terranigma are other great examples)>It's not insanely long, well, it is if you play 1 and 2 back to back but it's still a very good length without padding out the assThe biggest criticism I've seen is that characters talk too much, I never had an issue with this when I was a kid playing this shit but I guess dopamine addicted people can't stand to read.
>>730834973His music used to be good, listen to Valkyrie Profile, Golden Sun 1&2, Star Ocean or early Tales games (Phantasia, Eternia, Symphonia).
>>730837201By walking on the map.
>>730836919I was one of those cats.
>>730833148Bros... is it TOO much to ask for a remake? I don't ask for a lot, just do something like SaGa Frontier 1 did, same characters and backgrounds, just redraw them faithfully and keep the "early CGI" look they have, at this point I'd take HD 2D or something like the Link's Awakening remake just so that this game FINALLY ends the story and we can fight Alex.
>>730837280>The biggest criticism I've seen is that characters talk too muchand a lot of puzzles involve just pushing thingsand there's not much side contentand despite the djinn system letting you access cool classes you never really need any because there's no difficulty curve
>>730837475Considering most JRPGs today have just lazy dungeon design I appreciate Golden Sun puzzles a lot more, Air's Rock haters can suck a fat one, but I do admit is a bit of a curve considering it's pretty much early game.
>>730836919>>730837442
>>730836624I'm pretty sure Nintendo fully owns GS too
>>730837575I'm more of a Mars Lighthouse Anti
>>730833148mom made fun of the stupid dialogue when she played it fir 5 minutesalso, fuck only having half a story in the first game
>>730837575i just wish we had more stuff involving the other elemental psynergies over move and growth
>>730837475I'm alright with a lack of a difficulty curve in some aspects, especially with how the class/Djinn system can be extremely overwhelming.If a remake does happen, having access to either presets or a codex of class combinations in game would be great.
the characters of golden sun were so fucking generic and 1dthey had zero personalityat least mernardi was hot
FUCK THE LOG PUZZLES
>>730834973he does so much shit that I never really thought of tales (or anything, really) as his "main" worksstill fucking crazy how nerfed he is in tales regardlesshttps://youtu.be/kkFKzN741e8?si=xx0ky-utp6C47FWO
>>730837635It's co-owned between them and Camelot
>>730833148kino djinn systemkino exploration with psynergykino special weaponsI fucking wish more games had weapons that felt as cool
>>730837829>X lets out a howl!This was the hypest shit
>>730837829I agree, in my ideal world, Final Fantasy 17 would take the best aspects of early FF, Golden Sun and Baldur's Gate.>Fully 3D game but goes back to the roots, you make your party, give them jobs and explore the world at your leisure>Magic and battle abilities can be used outside of battle for puzzles and exploration which in turn unlock more jobs/summons, etc...>Choices and dialogue matters like in Baldur's gate, your jobs and skills also affect this and the outcome of the story>Turn based battles, probably take aspects from Ocotpath but I'd take something like Xenoblade's system at this pointI feel they should do this and step away for a bit from the more story-focused game-design.
>>730837859I let out a>Megiddoooooooooevery time it procced.
>want to play it>but a remake might be around the cornerCamelot is in the sports mines, is releasing Mario Tennis next month so doubt they are working on the remakes.Grezzo released Echoes of Wisdom 1.5 years ago so even if they are on the remake, it would take another 2 years.
>>730838381>but a remake might be around the cornerGo sit in the back with the guy who thinks we'll get a new Banjo game and the guy who thinks Chrono Trigger is getting a remake.
>>730838381>>but a remake might be around the cornerhaha...
>>730835540Dark Dawn? what's that? there is no such title, there are only 2 golden sun games>>730837201I played these games fairly young and found all djinns on my own literally just by walking the map
>>730835891When was the last time Sega deals with the series? Shining Resonance Refrain?
>>730833148Daedalus my beloved
>>730838460>>730838576Mario RPG fags won't shut the fuck up about their game for years, Nintendo finally does a remake and it sells very well.Surely the GoldenSun fags will be heard right?
>>730837829check out lufia 2it maps and puzzles are like proto golden sun
>>730838693FINALLY, someone based ITT!
>>730834917Two big reasons:>The third game took wait too long to come out>And when it did, it sucked ass, it didn't give GS fans what they truly wanted.
>>730834917Probably because Golden Sun was garbage? Hope that helps!
>>730837807It's like they told him to tone down the cheesiness and do "something serious" for Tales of Arise, and the soundtrack (and game as a whole) was quite bland as a result.
>>730837859And then GS3 removed it.
I wonder how Issac feels about his son being a FUCKING FURRY.
>>730838913"golden sun fans" were ass mad redditors who never really liked, or played the series
>>730835891>>730838576>tfw no Golden Sun HD in the style of Shining the Holy Ark
>>730838196Yes, I know, LF.
>all those deleted posts>Wonder what happened, go to archive.>Anon is particularly aggressive but nothing ban worthyI guess they fucked up in a different thread and got nuked from everywhere as result.
>>730837829Djinn system rules. I have Ivan all my fire djinn at the tail end of the game which gave him stat buff spells, I steam rolled everything after that. Except deadbeard ofcourse, that guy was just a brutal test of attrition
>>730835540I don't remember jack shit about the bottom left and bottom right.
>>730836096Can't say I blame him.
>>730836096Yes, is fucking blatant.
>>730834917Nintendo keeps poaching Monolith's employees so as compensation, they let Monolith make games themselves every now and then.
>>730838460Chrono Trigger WILL get a remake because its the last iconic Square Enix nostalgia bait game that they have left to remake. And no anyone who says "They can remake the first Kingdom Hearts!" Nah Kingdom Hearts isn't one of those nostalgia magnet series in that remaking it would actually work. For the Nostalgia Remake trap to work a game needs to be popular and actually stand out in the first place usually iconic.Banjo Kazooie like you said is definitively dead though, its just a generic platformer and it was quickly outpaced by others like Gex.
>>730839984I can. You're going to go furry then do it right. She needs a better redesign. As she is she looks disgustingly too human.
>>730839984She really is best girl.>>730840242I mean, considering that the furries happened because of the SUN going up well..
>>730837201I never missed any of them as a kid. Most of them are in places you're gonna be in anyways, often going back and forth a couple times. Even if you did miss them, you could find them again when you transfer your file over to Lost Ages (I think you can reclaim 2 or 3 of each like this.
>>730840173ct was a square game, not squaresoft nor enix nor squeenix
>>730837153SHUT UP LALALALA I CAN'T HEAR YOU
>>730833148The biggest failing Golden Sun has is the horribly unmemorable characters and story. And whoever thought that Felix should become a mute despite having a defined personality in the first game should be killed. The characters and plot are the reason Golden Sun never left a mark. Shame because the gameplay is neat.Golden Sun is Kingdom Hearts. Neat gameplay mechanics trapped by an extremely shitty story and shitty characters.
>>730840448Ironically, Isaac gets a character the second he's not the main character. It's fucking dumb.
>>730840448that's why i love the internet people who obviously never interacted with a piece of media can still voice a dog shit, unremarkable opinion
>>730840606The characters are shit. And you are shit.
>>730840796post birth year
I think Golden Sun was the handheld game I put the most hours into growing up. I've never found a handheld game/RPG that really sucked me in like Golden Sun did.
>>7308408842007
any good indie "x niggas in a row" rpgs? Last one I really dumped a bunch of time into was Divided Reigns, which was amazing
>Seeing that Megido animation for the first time
Reminder that there is no overarching "Xeno" series. It's just Xenogears and a bunch of garbage no one cares about.
>>730837807I don't think it's a Tales problem. Guy has probably written over 1000 game songs by now. There's no way to maintain a high quality with that output.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YMA5c96Czl0
>>730841008Sheba my beloved.
>>730840983Crystal Project if you haven't already played it.
>>730840242She can go either way
>>730841070I fucking love Crystal Project
>>730841071Can someone tell me the appeal of sticking your penis in the thing on the right? I don’t get it at all.
>>730840926He said birth year, not graduation date
>>730837201In GS they are only in small islands with a bridge and nothing else on them. In GS:TLA the fortune teller in Naribwe will tell you where they are if you give her a piece of armor.
>>730841008>We will never find out where the fuck Sheba came fromI don't give a shit about Alex. I want to know about the ancient Adept civilizations. They may still be around due to Sheba dropping from the sky, and the Ancient Jupiter civilization was said to be a flying city.
>>730840448>>730840546The same thing happened with the Persona 2 duology and their protagonists. Why are the Japanese like this.
>>730840606i own a copy of the game from when it came outthe only thing i can remember about mia is her name and that she's a water adept. that's her entire "personality".
>>730841192>Come from the moon (maybe)>Does nothing with itThank you Golden sun
>>730841192She comes from Anemos, it's the Jupiter adept city that's in the sky. It's bottom part is just earth wich is why it really is the Moon. Just a schizo theory.
