im not trying to argue semantics or split hair but this is more of a blobber than a “RPG”Also why wasn’t 2 on PS2
from stay awhile and listen book 2
>>12102379That's incredibly interesting and if what they thought was true it's typical Japanese way of severing ties with someone.
>>12102389westoid plebs had no idea that getting enamored by concept art and story pitches only to play complete garbage is the jarpig experience
You can't be a blobber if you're only controlling one character.
>>12102371>but this is more of a blobber than a “RPG”Vaguely, yeah. It's a Roguelike turned realtime and which is exclusively focused on one single big dungeon, and crawling that dungeon is the game.It's good at that, however.>>12102379Fascinating, never knew that.
>>12102371Because 2 came on five fucking CDs. How would you fit that on a console that you can’t even install things to?
>>12102569a ps2 dvd was 4.5GB retard
>>12102569>5 discsWas that the original? I recall having the expansion release with 3 discs
>>12102586From what I remember, the game had an install CD, a CD for each act, and a cinematics CD.
>>12102603fail
>>12102614Seemed like so much more as a kid.
>>12102379The capcom of DMC, Ace Attorney and OnimushaI think i can kinda see it, as their JRPG offers has generally been completely lacking
>>12102794Other than BoF5, which was a bold game, they only did the MMX RPG.
>>12102614*copies you're cd key*nothing personnel
>>12102371>blobberwhat's that?
>>12102379huh, I'd never heard of this before, and I thought I was aware of all the Blizzard North lore. cool.
>>12102371They also had a Diablo 2 planned for PS1 but cancelled it because of technical limitations.
>>12102569>exposing yourself as a zoomermany such case
Probably no one asked them to make a PS2 port so it never happened. They were way too busy making multiple classics at once to do it in house.
>>12102371Its in no way a fucking blobber. Its a isometric action rpg.
bumping to counteract the sega spammer who just woke up in his favela!
>>12102371Honestly, a lot of blobbers have more RPG depth than Diablo does, Diablo is pretty strictly about killing and looting.>>12105682Those old first person dungeon crawling RPGs.>environments are square rooms and hallways>think kinda like Wolf3D but you move one increment/block at a time, and it's not realtime 3D but just hand drawn with 4 fixed directions>you have a party of characters with you and you all move together>you encounter monsters and combat is turnbased>there's traps, NPCs, locked doors, puzzles, etc>>12107227Someone should kill him.
>>12108485Whats a good example from the genre that you wpuld reccomend?
>isometric blobber
>>12105682Dungeon crawlers where the party takes up a single tile regardless of its size like some amorphous "blob".
>>12108485wtf is a blobber?
>>12109281Eye Of The Beholder>>12110479I just fucking told you, you faggot fuck.
>>12102569PS2 is DVD. Also multiple CD games were normal, just as multiple floppy discs were normal.
>>12108485>blobbers have more RPG depthGames never make defense vs HP interesting and almost always HP>defense. Magic/physical defense splits and evade further make defense worse.Monster Rancher 1 is a rare exception where defense is a multiplicitive damage reduction making it more valuable than HP.
>>12110817Diablo 1 doesn't do it any better, armor class strictly determines the chance to miss, weighed against the attacker's chance to hit.
>>12108485 >>12110478are the old might and magic games [6, 7, 8] considered blobbers?
>>12111026Yes.
what the fuck is a blobber supposed to be
>>12110479>>12112012Like wizardry, op thinks a blubber just means a game with a single big dungeon with different levels each with like 5 floors
>>12112012Gauntlet game where you run into blobs of enemies and they die.
>>12111036I guess I'm a blobber enjoyer then.
>>12112012It's an RPG where you control your party as a "blob" rather than as individuals with tactical battles. Like Wizardry or Dungeon Master.
>>12102371wtf is a vlovver
>>12102371diablo was so huge that a console port became kind of small time, it wasn't something blizzard needed to bother with.
>>12112819*diablo II
>>12112205>>12112320Thank you that makes sense
>>12112132Diablo has 15 floors if you don't count the special quest ones, another 8 if you add the expansion.
