What's the best way to play Xenogears? Should I just stick with the UNDUB or is the Perfect Work's Build preferable? What does PW even do?
>>
>>12796938
Either original or undub. Perfect works and 2.0 are fanfiction shit. Still not making an account for your site, Spike.
>>
I also suggest going for the Undub version. Also you can find it on websites that don't require logging in (just search, it's easy to find).

Meh, I already have the login. I've downloaded hundreds of games from here. No reason to change now.
>>
There is barely any voice acting at all so who care if it's english or japanese

The official translation is great just play the original us version
>>
>>12796938
>What's the best way to play Xenogears?
youtube walkthrough (no commentary)
>>
>>12797008
Not a zoomer. I'm in my 30s.
>>
>>12796938
As the anon above said, there's almost no voice acting save for a couple animated cut scenes that are spaced 10s of hours apart. I wish you good luck, its one of the best written games in existence; but it can be a bit of a slog.
>>
>>12796938
Perfect works fixes the text speed which wasn't a problem for me when I played it but it is slower than how it was in the Japanese version and it's a long ass game.
>>
>>12796938
How's the PW translation compare? I heard it was improved?
>>
>>12797057
i had to take a break once i got to Shevat because it was just dragging on. I keep meaning to go back to it, but idk
>>
>>12797076
Shevat has a great theme, you're still pretty far from completion though. Once you reach 2nd disc it goes quicker due to them totally changing to linear narrative fights instead of open world because budget was running out . Gameplay wise, Xenogears is average to terrible depending on who you ask, I enjoyed it for the first half of the game because it was simple but it lacks any real depth or complexity later on.

>>12796938
By throwing this shit out or using it as a clay pigeon

>>12796991
^Ignore both of these autists. They haven't played perfect works so their opinion is literally based on nothing.

Perfect works is just a better version, simple as.

2.0 is outdated
>>
>>12797276
>better version
So it's not the creator's original intent, it's just fanfiction shite. You didn't beat the game.

>arguing in bad faith
you posted it. you know how much they changed >>12797294
>>
>>12797287
>muh sacred cow saaaar
>video game is perfect art saaaar
>it's not toy saaaar it is religion you must get experience officially licensed by the Jewish corporation saaaaar
the creators original intent doesn't make it to the game at all because it was unfinished.

Cope autist.

name 1 bad change
>>
>>12797321
You might as well just play the game with 30 or so gameshark codes enabled, or better yet just watch a longplay on youtube if you don't want to engage with the actual game
>>
>>12797330
>fixed bugs
>fixed translation
>small Rebalancing
Quit crying like a bitch, autist. There's no difficulty in this game except the fucking platforming.
>>
>>12797335
>fixed bugs
Bugs you would never encounter under normal circumstances unless you're hyper autistic about that sort of thing
>fixed trannylation
Need I say more? Look at who did this "fixed" trannylation and get back to me
>small rebalancing
You said yourself there's no difficulty, why would you want it to be easier
>>
>>12797341
Annoying encounter spam is not difficulty, it's tedium

as for the translation, they've got an extensive changelog and all of it makes sense. they made it like the original Japanese.

You're just a crybaby.
>>
>>12797447
>it's tedium
Play a different genre or get your ADHD medicated
>they made it like the original Japanese.
No, (((they))) inserted their fanfiction shit where it doesn't belong
>>
>>12797456
no they didn't
>>
>>12797456
obsessed

Just play the official release and not fanfiction. Applies to literally every game btw.
>>
>>12797484
This.
>>
>>12797330
>engage with the actual game
It’s hilarious how the Xenodefenders say this because they partially admit it’s not a game but a interactive anime that really sums to “push x to win”
>>
>>12797456
>No, (((they))) inserted their fanfiction shit where it doesn't belong
Explain!?
>>
>>12796938
the best way, whatever version you choose, is to only play the first disc. it is VITAL you not play the second disc. it's so fucking bad.
>>
>>12797628
You didn't beat the game
>>
Which one removes random encounters while platforming? One of the most painful things about playing this game.
>>
>>12797650
Just watch a youtube longplay if you don't want to actually play the game.
