A Brightis english fan translation has been releasedhttps://www.romhacking.net/translations/7639/
romhacking still up? I thought that shit was dying
Woah, a 20-year-old game I've never heard of got translated? I'm so excited to not play it!
>The script is a localization more than a strict translation.
some guy used google LLM to make hungry ghosts for ps2 playable
>>743691512>that tiny bit of damage for a full combo against fodderBruh...
>>743691230Thank fuck. It kills me there are games with no translations while fucking FF6 and FF7 are getting multiple re-translations because some autist really wants to you to understand what "nakama" means.
>>743693842>video games?! On my video games board!?
>>743693842>haha look how much I don’t care haha
>>743691512Truly the dark souls of ps1
Another game people are experts about because of youtube?
>>743691512getting some nightmare creatures vibes. or deathtrap dungeon.
>>743691230>The script is a localization more than a strict translation.
>>743694479and fucking wild arms 2 STILL doesn't have a re-translation
>>743691230Years of shitposting about it paid off lol
Holy based, it's about time
>>743691512>souls sloppa
>>743694479>>743694705Just learn Japanese
somebody dropped the patched iso I'm not struggling with this bullshit
>>743693934>>743694661go back and stay there
There was translation being worked on that got cancelled last year and this one is based off of it but whoever did this one rewrote the dialogue in a more archaic old english style, wish it was kept normal desutext below in the pic is from the old project
>>743694736Looks kino, but is it good?
>>743694736I download your Brightis pic, so have another Brightis pic
>>743691512reminds me a bit of Die By The Sword
many thanks OP! I've been meaning to check this one out for a while
where can we find a ntsc-j collection?
Bright Souls
>>743695085>I WANT EVERYONE TO TALK LIKE A CURRENT YEAR WEST COAST AMERICAN AAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>743695785Coolroom? Then https://hack64.net/tools/patcher.php is good enough to patch
>>743695903Bottom text is way more accurate
>>743696041It is, and it's written like generic dogshit because japanese language SUUUUUUUUUUUCKS
Game always looked super cool to me but I wonder if it's actually fun to play
lol
>>743697359Go woke go broke
the translation being shitty works in a way, it fits in better with other shitty translations of the period
>>743697359>blue eyesaryan as fuck
>>743697359Yakubian
superior game by anon soon
>>743691230>jp game has no translation>"wow this game has such a cool mystique, i wish someone translated it">finally gets translated>"oh..." instantly gets forgotten and added to the pile of shovelware i have zero interest in
>>743691230Actually based.
>>743691512Wtf, literally never knew this existed and I know almost everything on ps1.
>>743699467sean seanson covered this game on his channel about lesser known ps1 gamescheck it out you might find more you’ve never seen beforehttps://youtu.be/RgxZ9lyp2WE?t=3305
>>743694264Has anyone tried playing it to see if it even makes sense?
>>743691230Ah yes time for people to realize yet another JP only retro game was horribly overhyped by mouth breathers online.
>>743699912I've heard it doesn't play very nice but I'm sure it's worth checking out. Same devs as Terraniga so I bet it's at least a decent game>>743698524>he posted my gamebased!
>>743691230>localization more than a strict translation/v/ always loses, baby!!!
>>743691230pretty coool
>>743693842Anon, 2006 was 20 years ago.
>>743701237
Does anyone know about the Despiria English patch? I really want more adventure games but there's been no updates for a while.>>743691230I feel like PS1 romhacking and translation has been speeding up. I wonder if there's been better documentation in the decomp era on how do these things better. I know the guy whose been doing the SotN decomp has been writing out extensive documentation on how to do things. Interesting though. Onto the backlog it goes.
>>743691230I thought it was Silver at first
>>743702209how's the game anon?
>>743691512Is this made by the Dragon Valor devs? It really reminds me of it.
>>743702209i dont really follow what unc is saying but s'cool
>>743691512looks pretty but holy shit that seems tedious as all helli'll wait for a sloptuber essay on it instead
>game lets you rebind its controlsAlright, I'm already liking this.
wonder where the game plays better... on the PS2 via OPS or on the Wii via WiiStation
>>743702290idk just played a few mins to check the engrishit's too awkward, obvious ai slopcombat feels like generic hack n slash to me, there's no lock on like oot or desenvironments look nicely detailed but draw distance is silent hill tier, makes the dungeon more claustrophobic i guessi suppose it's closer to king's field or hack n slash like the old might n magic games than zelda really, don't expect non linearity and complex puzzle dungeons
>>743702209>>743703271Its 3D Brandish You can kinda tell on the PS1 and PS2 dungeon crawlers if its more Brandish/YS or more Zelda depending on how extensive or stiff the animation system is. And following the lineage, we get games like Evergrace which is further down the lineage trying to improve on the PS1 attempts.
>>743691230That's cool to see, I played throught the game with one hand on the controller and my secind hand holding my phone translating each line via Google translate. The game's plot and signposting is simple enough that I didn't feel like I missed anything but the menus were fucked up.
>>743697359>i got a tancharcoal chad strikes again
>>743702392made by quintet devs
>>743704119Oregano Japanese for context
>>743691230how about you brightis nuts?
>>743694264link?
>>743695913Is this literally we have shadow tower at home?
>>743707378shadow tower is a third person action rpg with combo attacks and separate dungeons connected by an overworld?
>>743707774damn, how did you know?
>>743698524>>743700024What gaem
Can anyone drop the patched game? Much appreciated.
Actual translation or MTL/AI slop?
>>743709289based on a mostly finished script (things related to the pocketstation feature are untranslated) of a cancelled project but then the new guy went back and old englishified the script for some reason
I'm going to repost this from /vr/ since it seems relevant.In short, there was an old, nearly finished project that was abandoned. The abandoned project had the script completely human translated. They just couldn't get it into the game. Someone took that old project and finished it. Instead of just inserting the script as it was, they edited it to read like it's Old English (hence the "The script is a localization more than a strict translation." comment on the download page).Right before this new guy announced they finished their version, the team behind the old project unabandoned the original project. They're still planning on finished their version, so soon there will be two versions of the translation. The one that's out now that is "localized" to be Old English, and another soon-to-be-released one by the original team that is not "localized" and reads normally.
>>743709635
When can I AI generate my own translation for games?
>>743694895>I could read shikashi on that last text boxand that's the extent of my knowledge about japanese
>>743708297>https://tintodev.itch.io/project-goblin
>>743709635>bro literally made the original translators so ass mad they came back to finish the projectkinda based honestly
>>743691309They don't directly host content anymore. You have to link to another site that hosts the download.
Oh that's really fucking cool.I've seen a few projects to do this that all died over the years. Its cool that someone actually finished it.That being said a big part of the magic for me was playing Brightis and not knowing what anyone was saying or how to play. It felt like playing PS1 games as a dumb kid again. Putting together my own story, deciding for myself who were my friends and who were the bad guys. Also figuring out how to buy new skills and equip them, trying them one by one and being totally surprised by what they did.I think I would have enjoyed the game less if that magic was missing.Still. Really cool game. Anons should play it if they haven't because its very fun.
>>743691512mind boggling effects
>>743712310Thanks
>>743694475Balance was like that. You have an absolute shitload of skills in brightis, like actually mindboggling for a PS1 game. It wasn't like "here's fifty attacks that are the same but do more damage" but instead you had directional attacks so you can hit guys behind you, big swings for crowd control, wall splatting attacks, there's even this sickass aerial front flip attack you can use to jump enemy attacks and hit them on the way down.Its vaguely like severance blade of darkness where if you just mindlessly button mash you wont hit shit, so you gotta do positioning and pick the right attack for the range and angle.Of course that does mean if you just wanna chop up some dudes you've got a handful of attacks that are just "chop up the cunt standing in front of you" bread and butter skills.
>>743695691Huh. I never made that connection but it is similar.Doesn't have Superior Limb Based Combat but if you play DBTS on auto mode the combat does feel the same.
Someone upload the translated game at archive or cdromance>>743701886This game was good shit
>>743691230>The script is a localization more than a strict translation. Brightis reads like a fable, so the English leans slightly archaic where the world calls for it, the way a knight ought to sound rather than the way a textbook would render him. The translation takes few liberties with the story itself, but line by line it favors what reads well over what maps word for word. Hmm...
>>743712601If you look at the dates, they came back about a week before the new guy showed up. There's no cause and effect. It's just uncanny timing.
>>743704505>You barely made it to one star?>You've got a long way to go.The game was mocking you
>>743697359He has natural blue eyes so he's a White man with a tan.
>>743712601The rick and morty effect
>>743691230Did you make this thread just to try and bait that one schizo who got mindbroken by a translation a while ago?But also thanks for the heads up Anon.
>>743703271>i suppose it's closer to king's field or hack n slash like the old might n magic games than zelda really, don't expect non linearity and complex puzzle dungeonsI'd say closest game would be Kingsley's Adventure.I'm not sure why exactly it feels like that. It just does.
>>743713625All is left now is Battletech for pc98 and the x68k, but is better to reverse engineer that and throw the DOS text.Then all mechwarrior games will be nativelly playble on a modern windows.
>>743709635If the original team is going to finish theirs, i’m glad this versions stylized script existscomparing the dialogue in >>743702209 to the google doc of the direct translation of the original team, the rewrite is less flat and autistic soundinghttps://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/16ST1GpUGnfzQkkyA7Y5LqPaeRHxq0L23jmVaQDX_wBU
>>743691230i just finished up the first dungeon and grabbed the element. this is ps1 zelda like i always wanted (blood omen was a good zelda like also). thanks OP.
>>743713625I’m pretty sure that schizo is the one who made the thread on vr about it
>>743714881>Take a look>"Now all the posers can play it!"Yep. Dunno why he would do it on a board where you get banned for being a faggot though.
>>743715015Maybe it’s actually 4d chess to bring more attention to new translations via ragebaiting
>>743715130In any case, it worked.
>>743691230HOLY FUCKING SHIT!! I'VE BEEN ASKING BEFORE FUCKING COVID
>>743694731
>>743708896>>743694880it’s very easy you can patch it online using marcrobledo, follow the instruction onhttps://github.com/WadoTranslations/ps1-brightis-english/blob/main/docs/patching-guide.mdcdromance for the untranslated game
i thought this was a Silver thread when i first glanced at the thumbnail.
>>743700024when are you adding a femc for troonbux (she should have red hair btw)
>>743691512Is this anything like Virtual Hydlide where you get special items and armor to clear dungeons and bosses?
>>743699806Hi Sean
>>743703974Quintet actually had a few Falcom devs. Not sure if they were still around when this game came out.
>>743691230>Never heard of this game>Check out a gameplay sample video uploaded 15 years ago>Entire game oozes with soul from the opening movie, to the sfx and music, to attack animations, and everything elseAdded to the backlogWhat's the town name supposed to be? El Saado? Irusaa?
Frankly i never expected to see this game translated.Now i hope that brandish 3 and battletech are next.
is the game good or what
>>743703271>don't expect non linearity and complex puzzle dungeonsOoT doesn't have any of that. And hard lock on is shit for 3D action games.
>>743691230Oh neat let me just download the->Myrient is gone
>>743721513>"Didn't Play Past Jabu Jabu's Belly" Award
>>743693842>i haven't heard of it so it mustn't be any good, because i am the king of planet earth and i'm so importantWhat a shallow and pathetic way to live.
>>743695537It has atrocious user ratings.4.82/10
>>743721913GOD-TIER, COMPLEX, puzzle design.
>>743717580I started learning japanese during covid.You could have too if you weren't lazy and useless.
>>743691230>Brightis is a 1999 action RPG developed by Quintet and ShadeI'm sold, fuck yes
>>743721458just got out of the tutorial dungeoncontrols are good for a ps1 game, actually uses the sticks for movement and camera control instead of d padgraphics (except for draw distance) and music are great, oozing with soulcombat is simple for now but it looks like there are alot of moves to unlock and there is magic, cant speak on difficulty yet. there is no button to lock on but it seems like there is a soft lock when looking at and standing near an enemyclosest comparison is zelda i’d say but with some light rpg stats and leveling up so i’d play it if that sounds good to you
>>743722497Which beetle settings?
>>743699467Maybe you're a fucking newfaggot and never realized it. Ever think of that, bitch?
>>743703974>>743718920Quintet was founded by Falcom employees and this game is an evolution of Granstream Saga which is a game obviously influenced by Falcom titles like Brandish and Ys.
>>743722816how could you tell it’s beetle and not duckstation?i have it upscaled 8x dithering on internal scale and pgxp with culling
>>743722497>>743723587>8x upscaled internal resolution AND crt shader
>>743723901yeah i know it isnt meant for upscaled res but i like it for the colors, bloom and the texture it adds to the image even if it doesn’t blend the pixels the way it should :cthough after seeing this post i’m trying with native res and it works better than i thought it did
Quintet were barely involved with this. It was developed co-developed by Quintet, Shade and Arc Entertainment.I'm gonna fire up the Japanese version and just play that coz i don't trust this AI LLM """relocalization""" crap that passes for translations these days. I know enough jap to play games so i should be fine. Plus i have a 240p CRT Emulation setup so i'm gonna crank up the signal blur with the GTU50 shader to hide the PS1 rendering jank and see what the game is like.It's got terrible user ratings so i'm not holding my breath for anything decent.
>ITS AI CAUSE IT UHH LOOKS FUNNY
>>743725386>Subhuman post
>>743725386>Quintet were barely involved with thisProof? Also Shade was just a subsidiery team of Quintet led by Koji Yokota, a former Falcom and Quintet employee. From what I can tell, Arc Entertainment was basically a development support division from Sony who helped several studios develop games for Playstation rather than being actual lead developers.
>>743723365Added note: Jun Nagashima (programmer of Brandish 4, Ys V, Popful Mail) left Falcom to join other ex-Falcom employess at Quintet/Shade to progam Brightis.
>>743707378Fromsoft doesn't have a patent on video games where you have a sword and are fighting enemies in a dungeon
>>743717648>you can patch it onlineI'm not doing that on my phone. Someone just upload the patched iso somewhere. I'd do it myself if I had access to a PC to manage files rn, but I don't I'm just looking to burn it on the weekend when I can get at a burner
>>743729342It was just added to cdromance.
>>743691230just finished the waterfall cave and it's pretty cool. i need to figure out the skill system tism though
meh
>>743698524...i mean are we really comparing a real game made for the ps1 and this shit?
>>743694705Why would it need one?
>>743722497way too high resolution
>>743731208How did they manage to make these animations back then? Very fluid.
>>743693842Here's a nice helping of existential dread for you - Gears of War is a 20 year old game.
>>743723587Because of my screenshot above with retrocrisis preset is running on beetle plus i am playing on a phone til my pc is back.
>>743717683>Duplicate file entry detectedBruh
I seriously hope that this game gets reverse engineered in the future.
>>743691230So now are people going to stop pretending it's a great game or are they going into damage control overdrive because they're excited to play a fan translation? I played it years ago and it was okay outside of the visuals.
Watch out Brightisbros, the larpers are already starting to crawl out
>>743739950You being an EOP doesn't make people who aren't lazy unable to learn moon.
>>743733259people don't understand that Liz's nonsense is supposed to be nonsense
>>743712601They are not going to finish shit.This is how lazy bumslatoros operate."Ayaya, gib kickstarter monies goyjin for this translations I make" "You can expact ot to comeout within next ten decades goyjin-kun">>743739686What is there to pretend? It is great game.If fromslop didnt make Kings Field all the normalfaggots would hate on it too.
>hyped japanese only "hidden gem" gets finally translated>it's midevery single time
>>743741109>larplarplarp
>>743741109>>it's midWhat's wrong with a 5/10? I have many such games I love to death, Granstream Saga for instance
>>743691512>check gameplay videos>all of the monster names and other UI elements in English>mostly dialogue is untranslatedI don't get why Japs did this. What's the point in making anything English if it's only getting released in Japan?
>>743691230I already played it last yearIt was aight
>>743699847i played it a bit but it was so boring i dropped it
>>743741020>It is great gameNot really. I know moon so I don't need to pretend I'm part of a sekrit club any time something gets fan translated. It's a very okay game outside of presentation.
>>743694895how are you doing that and make it quick
>>743739224>>743739268wait, do you buy moves and chain them together into one combo? Is this proto God Hand?
>>743744043They are on different button combos from what I remember trying this in Japanese. So sort of but not really.
>>743744191looks cool anyways, gotta give it a shot
>>743696256While Japanese writing is bland, using Olde Englishe is pretentious, and that is worse than bland.
>>743691230HOLY FUCKING SHIT I HAVE BEEN WAITING YEARS FOR THISTHANK OPANONS LIKE YOU ARE THE REASON I STILL COME HEREYOU ARE A SCHOLAR AND A CHAMPIONGOD BLESS USEVERYONE
>>743691512This looks fun, I like old clunky 3D action game. Recommended?
>>743742795I don't know but I truly fucking hate the state of localization throughout the 90s and early 2000s.Altered Beast got rebooted then never released in the US. It's criminal.
>>743744619It has good RPG mechanics.Hub towns and shops and equipment management and dialogue and all that.It's truly bullshit it was never released outside of japan.
>>743744043Been a long time since I beat it. From what I remember you can pretty much customize everything to your liking. There are predefined command inputs that you can slot certain attacks into, e.g. back, forward, attack.There are also charge up attack where you have to simply hold down the attack button for a certain amount of time and then release for them to come out. You can have several of those on one button staggered time, e.g. one move for holding down 1 sec and another for holing down 2 secs. A little timer appears at the bottom of the screen showing you how long you've been holding down the button for.I'm fairly certain you can switch out all your normals too. But some of these moves are rather pricey iirc.There are some magic spells as well but the upgraded ones shown here you need to unlock through a side quest.
>>743743695I didnt ask your opinion larper. Go back to your gatcha board or wherever you came from.
>>743691512Why do those skeletons have an HP bar like the DS boss?
>>743744828
>>743744043Someone already beat me to an explanation but yeah kind of.Custom combos were a huge fad in Japan at one point. Now it's all weeb gacha slop.
>>743743695I want everyone remotely like you burned alive after watching their family roast first.
>>743744828sounds sweet, thanks for the info anon
>>743744941>larperEOPは黙ってろ
>>743695913>>743697359AIEEEE TOO POLITICAL
>>743744948Enemy health bars are everywhere all throughout the 90s and early 2000s, little zoomy.
>>743744948some attacks take off way more hp that others. that flashy combo especially is pretty weak except for 1 or 2 hits that have to connect iirc. it also wasn't fully upgraded yet. it gets a final swing on the way down later on that pretty powerful.>>743745034
>>743745153>everyone remotely like youYou mean people smart enough to learn moon instead of being a lazy retard and bitching about unlocalized media for literal decades?
>>743745218Having a tiny fraction or single token black NPC in a video has always been fine, you rotten falseflagging libtard vermin.The problem has always been and will always be deliberately erasing the normlacy of most people being white in civilized ancient nations.You can't comprehend this nuance because you are both stupid and evil like every libtard to ever live.
>>743745263No. Arrogant weeb filth that is always confidently wrong.You are stupid by the way. Not even slightly superior. Infact your general smug conduct is proof you are inferior to most people in genral.
>>743745263if this >>743745201 is the extent of you jap then i have bad news for you
>>743691230Cool, thought it's never gonna happen. Porbably wouldn't if not for how Dark Soys and Zelda popularity. Hopefully Ore no Shikabane will be next fan-translated vidya from PSX jail.It's pissing me off that Snoy knows that this game is still popular, because they released PS4 remaster, and yet they still didn't bother adding the fucking translation.
>>743691512somehow still looks like tighter combat than any Soulsshit that ever released. funny how Memeaslopi got blown out a decade before he ever dropped the turd known as Demon's Souls.
>>743745556any excuse huh
lil piggy got zapped by the defense tower at the 13 sec mark
seems like a cool larp game
The PSX is truly the treasure trove for hidden gems. So many cool games that got shrugged up the rug
>>743745878mmmm bacon
>>743745393>that is always confidently wrong.You sound very angry and stupid. Getting mad that not everyone wants to pretend to be a connoisseur for playing fan translated games that aren't particularly good won't change that. I haven't seen this level of buttmad since retards were pretending VC 2 and 3 were good.>>743745413その程度じゃないけど、どうせお前は全くできないから日本語で会話する意味はないNow get buttmad and run it through an AI translator because you can't fathom the idea that someone who isn't a retarded newfag or illiterate third worlder could actually learn moon and play untranslated games.
Why is this schizo having a melty over a fan translation? He really thinks he's special because he learned another language (something most Euros already do btw)
>>743746863>growing up learning a language you're taught in school that has similar roots to your mother tongueThe saddest of all language flexes.
Very cool, I'm hoping we get SMT II PSX soon.
This anon is very angry kek. Imagine learning moonrunes just so you could fap to VNs
>>743746571You're sub-human filth and nobody is reading all that.>>743746863Sub-humans have poor impulse control and low social awareness.
>>743746863Why do retards insist everything that isn't translated is a hidden gem and get mad that people who've experienced it before untranslated say it's nothing special?
>>743747034Do you like video games?
>>743747034Your opinion is wrong and nobody considers you legitimate.
>>743747091>>743747185Point proven
will the game run much better if emulated on PC when compared to running it on my PS2?
>>743747210>no argumentI accept your concession
>>743747034you are so fucking lamewhy are you in this thread, go be a smart ass somewhere else
>>743747034It actually is something special and the fact you are saying it isn't is why everyone is reminding you that you are trash.The smug superiority posting is just digging deeper and proving how truly retarded you are. Like medically clinically mentally unwell.
>>743747210>Doubling down with smug "I win" postingYeah I'm sure everyone totally doesn't think you're a retarded faggot now.
>>743746571Vermin like this are why so many people celebrate when a fan translation gets made.
>Smug anime reaction image >Spends of the rest of the thread insisting that they are superior and that everyone and everything is beneath themWhat factory do they make these things in?
>>743747279>It actually is something specialIt's not. There's a reason it was never big in Japan or with people that know moon. People that hype up untranslated games just because they're untranslated are as bad as people who pretend that every poorly translated LN they read is good.
>>743701886Me too
I wanna play this but there's no ISO on Vimms and I trust very few other sites. I even just took a look at emuparadise for the rom and the file was a 132kb .bin file.I'm with an earlier anon above. Ain't touching this until someone just dumps the patched rom somewhere. Spoonfeed me.

>>743749542>Demon's Souls>autolock?
>>743749885>change defintion of word in your mind>get confused
>>743750024You should explain when you say shit like this.Because auto-lock could refer to the players lock on ability or how enemies attacks "lock-on" to players, or even both.
this is one of my most wanted games. Hope it's as fun as it looks
>>743751121I don't need to explain basic terminology on this board. That's on you. >An autolock mechanism typically functions in one of two ways:>Soft-Lock (Aim Assist): Your attacks or bullets naturally bend or curve toward an enemy as long as you are generally facing them. You can still move freely, but the game helps your aim.>Hard-Lock (Camera Lock): By pressing a button (like pushing in the right joystick on a controller), your camera sticks directly to an enemy. As the enemy moves around the battlefield, your camera spins automatically to keep them in the center of your screen.
>>743751136looks like ape escape so it's probably fun
>>743752236>evil gargoare there friendly gargos?
>>743752373SCORPIO'D
>>743702392>Dragon Valormy fucking nigga, literally one of my top 5 PS1 games.
>>743752373HAHAHA GET REKT
>>743752273There are plain and winged ones (see top-center). They're all relatively evil I would say. That particular variety in the clip is the only one that breathes fire from what I remember.
>>743752578I really like the look of this game
>>743702392It's made by Granstream Saga devs
>>743752108No one calls hard lock-on autolocks.
>>743753385Keep seething retard
>>743753474Seethe about what. No one has ever called a hard lock on an autolock in a 3d action game before.
>>743698524>soulless ui>superiorkys
TNDTOTAL NOGGLE DEATH
>>743694895>>743743987Not him but I know Retroarch has that built inhttps://docs.libretro.com/guides/ai-service/#automatic-mode
is the first boss supposed to take place in the dark or did i miss a light element because i can barely hit him
>>743756778the stone golem fight? you can have an element during it. you probably didn't pick that platform element back up earlier. stop the platform in the middle so you can jump across and take it with you.
>>743757153i meant but wolf, but nvm i didn’t realize the boss door stays open even if you take the elements back out
>>743757658yeah, you should always check if you can advance without leaving an element behind
>>743757153that's a sick golem design
>>743722063Listen anon you have to understand the mind of a tendie, here's a book for it.
>>743694895You can tell that most of the people that use these apps or bitch about translations not being super literal enough cant read Japanese and are 3rd worlder ESL browniods
>>743691512Looks cool
>>743758085
>>743756280isnt ztranslate broken now?
>>743695913Rurufon is a nigger...
>>743761232Okay, what shader is this?
>>743691230>more atmospheric sword and board kinoCool
>>743761617Looks like royale xm29plusPs1 and saturn needs ntsc and pal composite for dithering
>>743761617what he said>>743761934
Looks like retroarchievements might soon support this patched version as well. From the achievement list they have on this game (I didn't know there was one until 5 minutes ago)... I missed a lot of items during my playthrough.
>>743761934>>743762247Cheers, anons. Looks groovy on my end too. I can't get video filters to work in conjunction with the shader sadly, but it still looks great. I'm also being blasphemous by having texture filtering on, polygon-warping correction, and downsampling-based AA. Almost looks like an N64 game now.
>>743753805why would the ui be finished before the game
>>743762498cool my favorite part a bout playing qames is showing them online
do i just suck or are combo attacks not that useful because you need to stand still without blocking to do them, and the second i stop moving i get hit
>>743765263Not sure what the issue is. With most enemies you can block infinitely and wait for your opening. Though there are a handful of unblockable attacks I believe.
>bees require more than one hit to kill in the third dungeoneat my fucking ass, game
Can I get actual good shaders to work on duckstation without a phd in rocket science? The default shaders suck ass and I don't want to use retroarch.
>>743769307I don't know, can you?
>>743734709Film someone in the dev team acting out the motions. Then copy specific frames.
wtf order am I supposed to put these gems in
>>743739686Normally with these translations, everyone forgets about it in a week and you'll never hear about it ever again.
>>743742382Your "5" is obviously a 7.5's are dull as fuck to play. 7's are flawed but interesting.
>>743744463You don't know japanese.
>>743771045nvm I get it now
>>743761934That's a myth.Composite doesn't get rid of dithering. It just fucks up the image quality. The dithering is still visible.When the fuck did everyone start getting terrified of dithering anyway? In the 90s we just accepted it. Now everyone spends hours going out of their way to try and eliminate it, adding ridiculous shaders that destroy the image quality of the entire game just to try and make some dots go away.
>>743771372dithering is literally fotm fuck you talkingabout
>>743739686I'm having fun. Visuals and music are top tier, game oozes charm and the combat, while jank, is still fun
How many element chests are in the gassland first dungeon? I found 5 light gems but only used 3 on chests
>buy leather armor in town>get leather armor in dungeon just a bit laterfuck
>>743773327the classic blunder
>>743695085Honestly, I don't know why people are losing their shit over the localisation; assuming every line has been flared up in the same way. The wording is just changed to sound slightly more archaic in English, it's not like they're replacing genders or inserting trans rights every 3 lines. The exact same meaning is being conveyed.
>>743772556found 3 as well
>>743773973I don't have an inherent issue with the conceptual direction of the dialog, but (at least early on), I've noticed a little too much reliance on Yodaspeak as a lazy way to convey "ye olde" dialect, and a couple weird mistranslations like the big villain saying "I will have all the magic macguffins, WHATEVER THAT MEANS" (the all-caps is the actual wording, the rest is paraphrased).
>>743703974>>743718920>>743723365>>743727225You guys just sold me on checking this out.
>>743691230>supposedly legendary jp game by westerners gets eng translation>check famitsu>25/40every time without fail
>>743774290Famitsu is legendary for ass-backwards ratings, anon. This is the same publication that gave FFXIII a 39/40 and both its sequels 40/40s.
>>743774290In this case I don't think they're right. I'm playing it right now and I'm very impressed by its gameplay, not to mention the atmosphere and aesthetics. The game has a staff of prime era Falcom employees too. I grew up in that era and played many of the arpgs and this one is definitely ahead of its time. I think its scores may reflect that maybe it was slightly too ahead of its time like pic related.
>>743774290>Journalists >:(>Journalists JAPAN :D
>>743772425The visuals, and especially that room, remind me of PSO.
