>play game on emulator>have slow health and mana regen>hit fast forward button>get full health and mana in 5 seconds>never need to use potions outside of combatCan't say I didn't beat the game, waiting for regen is a perfectly viable strategy the devs put in for me to exploit.
What game has HP and PP regen? Outside of using certain items in some games
>>12679981>pp regenThis nigga only knows pokemon
>>12679985I was thinking more DQ but ok
>>12679979You didn't beat the game, you just beat a version that heals you faster.
>>12679985>Pokemon invented PPThe irony writes itself here
pokemon doesn't even have any sort of regen, does it? Only in battle by using Leech life and similar, but not by walking on the overworld.
>ask your friend to download a gran turismo save packed with 3,000,000 CR cars>create a 8MB memory card with it>buy all these cars for 200,000 each>sell them for 1,000,000>Infinite money acquired totally legitimately, because you could do this back in the day>His dad works at Sony, that's how has those "legitimate" memory cards
>>12680000
>>12679994But the enemies attack faster as well so it balances out.
>>12679981Wolverine in X-Men Genesis did but it took absolutely forever. You had to stand still for 30 seconds to get your health back.
>>12679979Based alpha time optimizer
>>12679979Based. Limitless, yet slow regen is a poor mechanic. Good on you for exploiting it.
Based emulator plebs keeping the prices down on physical.
>>12679979Would any of you justify fast forward only for grinding in JRPGs? I try not to but I have only used the fast forward tool to make grinding less long
>>12681163>emulationbros don't have to spend billions on overpriced antiquities>retro collectors don't have to sell their wives to afford a single gameboy gameIs there a problem?
How come frogposters are always the biggest retards?
>>12681198If a game requires grinding it is garbage you shouldn't play anyways
>>12679979TRVKE
>>12681265frogs are 4chan culture, newfag
>>12681274Frogposting was thoroughly banned on /vr/ up until April 2025.
>>12679979I'm not sure what game you're talking about but in the examples I am thinking of it's an entirely viable strategy. If you wanna trade time for resources go for it.
>>12679981off the top of my head golden sun does mana but not health. dragon slayer eiyuu densetsu 2 does "mana" but its kinda a weird system where the spells regen you dont have mana. tengai makyou 2 does health and mana when you walk around in the overworld. romancing saga 2 does a full health heal after every battle. there are others that I know do health but I cant remember.
>>12679979>fast forwardYou did not beat the game
>>12681198If you adjust the speed from 1x, you did not beat the game.
>>12681198>set fast forward to the fastest speed the game can be played at without fucking up button inputs "just for grinding">leave this turbo mode on permanently because the entire game is slow as fuck
>>12681310What if you have a shitty computer that struggles emulating?Hey, old consoles had slowdowns all the time and GTA III is officially on PC
>>12681253I'm just happy that emulators exist and drive down demand for people that want the real thing. I didn't mean that in a bad way, I'm actually happy you guys exist so I don't have to pay triple what the market is currently at.
>>12681381Rare win-win situationI sold all my retro stuff, got a NAS, hoarded all the shit i could, got myself some chink controllers and a top computer + itx build for living room/portable and i'm all set.Best of luck to collectors, you guys are troopers.Some games have eye-watering prices like earthbound or chrono trigger
>>12679979i just constantly used fast forward whenever I wanted in my first FF game I ever beat (FF4)eventually i started calling FF "fast forward"So each game is like Fast Forward 6, Fast Forward 7 etc
>>12679981Ys is the best example of this. And before someone says it, yes you need an item for 1 and 2 but future games got rid of that requirement.
>>12681310I set my speed to 0.90x sometimes 0.95x to lengthen video games and enjoy them longer without noticeably effecting gameplay.
>>12681421>playing them slowerYou invented your own easy mode. You did not beat the game.
>>12679979>>12681198>>12681421you beat the game. congratulations :^)
>>12681198if you dont even turn the game on you can save even more of your precious time to cure cancer or whatever youre doing.
>>12679989DQ has MP not PP. You were caught being a pokemon tourist just admit it.
>>12681198You know how ff8 had a "skip summon" button because the summons were so long they would make each battle take forever? You didn't beat the game if you used it. Enjoy watching this 3 times a battle.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bwXKXoQz7UE
>>12680002>he did the meme
>>12679979>be me>working late nights and double shifts>huge game backlog>no time to finish>pay old Chinese man who lives next door to me $50 a night to play his way through my backlog and send me little clips to watch while I'm at work.You can't tell me I didn't beat the game.
>>12681546/thread
>>12679998No one calls mana PP.
>>12681620I'll do it for $49
>>12679998Little pp energy
>>12681556Oh no what am I gonna do now?I actually have played a lot of DQ games, only Pokemon I've played was gen 1 and 2 back when they released.I'm sure I've played other games that use PP in more recent years.Mother maybe?
>>12681904Based projector
>>12679979if the game had items to help mitigate the long regen time, then no, you dodged the intent of the design and in fact Did Not Beat The Game.
>>12679979Sounds like a jarpig. No one cares how they beat those they basically play themselves while you do the bare minimum Now arcade games those require 1cc to beat legally
>>12682113Regen mechanics date back to pen and oaoer D&D, shitposter
>>12681928NIGGAS IN THE CLUB DOING PENIS PROJECTOR
>>12681198Just stop grinding
>>12681278Why would you lie like that.
>>12679981Circle of the Moon MP regens and there is a spell that uses MP but regens health. It's extremely slow and tedious and you lose its effect if you are moving. I hate slow regen in games because it actively encourages NOT playing the game.
>>12682305https://desuarchive.org/vr/search/filename/pepe/deleted/deleted/end/2025-04-01/
>>12681463No sir, infact it's more akin to just playing PAL releases of games as the speed dip puts it around that mark.
>>126824756 pages? Lad I had over 35 (screenshot is where I stopped) of nothing but pepe between 2020 and 2024. It's fine if you misremember, but lemme give it to you straight (giggity): >dumb frogposterAnd genuine posting of pepe and apu was board culture. Nobody banned pepe on sight.
>>12682994Because it only found files named "pepe", leaving aside everything else with generic names. Not to mention that the pre-hack janny's goto move was to delete the image and leave the post, which the archive can't account for. But anyway, keep doing your usual gaslighting.
>>12682994I got warned yesterday for telling a frog poster to kill himself and im back again to say kill yourself frog poster
>>12683007First it was thoroughly banned, now only the files were deleted, huh? Take your lumps and move on. Actually I'll just make you.
>>12681267>if a game test your intellgience and abilities is bad.I kek.
>board culture
