Thoughts on their games?
>>744700742Ys games are great fun.
Early Ys, Zwei, Xanadu Next and Gurumin are all apex kino and I'll forever rue the day they became Trailshit: The Company.
>>744700742The last hope for JRPG's.
>>744700742As a non fan I get the impression that they don't really do anything good anymore. Latest Ys and Trails not being as great as they used to be and the tits remake being a remake.
>>744701720Tits remake is the tits, tho
>>744700742Interesting, but not concerning.
>>744701776I like it. But it's not really a testament to falcom being able to do new things, it's going back to their past glories.
Legit never heard of them
>>744701917Legit the last decent developer that stuck to their formula for their respective titles making minor gameplay changes until trails of cold steel came outnow they're trying to fit every trope , dopamine rush, cliche for their new games
there's way too much filler and inane dialogue. worth it for the kino battle animations I suppose
>>744700742I like Trails but at the same time I find it exhausting because after playing so many games with the same general formula. It's become incredibly noticeable how padded out the later games are. Trails in the Sky remake really highlighted how fucking pointlessly long the newer games like Horizon are. Horizon felt extra long because of pointlessly added side quests, another virtual world to grind in, and a split route system where you're jumping between different parties.In comparison, Trails in the Sky's progression feels so smooth and well designed that it feels like Falcom got worse over time at making an engaging adventure for the player to go through.
>>744700742All their talent left and formed a much better studio (pic related).Falcom's best games are ones no one talks about.Zwei, Gurumin, Popful Mail.
>>744702324>how padded out the later games are.The localization doesn't help.They added in 50 times more text in the english versions.
>>744706141*People like this.They call it """world building""".Absolute fucking galaxy brained mongoloids.
Solid games but lots of missed potential. Feel like they could be way better than they are. Solid 7/10 dev
>>744701720Even if the last two Ys have not been as good as VIII, they're still pretty fun.
>>744700742I like them. They make good games.
>>744704786Popful Mail (Sega CD) wasn't even developed by Falcom, the Falcom version is shit compared to it.Original Zwei fucking sucks. The gameplay is braindead simple.Gurumin is fine but doesn't reach the gameplay goodness of the top tier Falcom games.
>>744704786Oh thanks, you just reminded me to download the English patched version of BrightisTo the fags that wouldn't upload the game in the thread last week, it's just on Internet Archive now
