the tribe you're from is partly descended from vault dwellers who were well educated enough to know stuff like that about pre-war america, and many other groups in the wasteland are also educated, eg the NCR who know enough about american democracy to make their own version of it, and the Wright Family who, if they win in Reno, make public schools with better standards of education than pre-war american schools had

A good point though is that regardless of how much of a genius the chosen one may be, there clearly wasnt a whole lot of reading material around camp for even a smart chosen one to know things they have not right knowing...
But we all know the reason behind this is because they're stupid pop culture memes and it was always meant to be a joke.

I took another crack at it and finished it last night by dismissing my party members and then using chest engine to fix dogmeats HP at max, although he could still die if he took damage greater than his HP in one attack, wiped out all the muties with my minigun. Dropped off all the companions safely at BoS and made it to cathedral. Gonna finish it then play 2, 3, and NV. Never finished 3 or NV, will see how bad they get?

The more i see, the less i care for it. Companions look plain simply bad, combat looks unimpressive and i am being kind, character creation seems restricting and awful. Morrigan looks... well, she looks like shit. Not only the design takes away the sensual mystery of the character but it´s just ugly to look at from an artistic perspective. Sex is not really a selling point either as all the characters are ugly.
Solas, who was supposed to take center stage, is now been reduced to being the opening act. Fuck the new guys, he was the one we were interested on because, you know, we had all that established history with him.

I honestly can´t think of anything this game is actually doing right. I mean sure, it´s not a service multyplayer, great, but from my perspective that´s irrelevant now that the story doesn´t revolve around Solas anymore.

It´s mission based instead of "open world". Which again is mostly a reflection of it´s origins as a service multyplayer right? A way to save as much of the work that had been done before switching away to a single player game.

The way i see it, some people will give it a chance on account to it "being" Dragon Age so it won´t end like Concord but i honestly don´t see an appealing game here.

Witcher 3 is the story of a degenerate card addict gambling his way across the land

I didn't believe but she's a real dumbo, sometimes in a cute way like when you first meet Ekun and she can't see Octavia's sarcasm. But also when you order that wizard to stop torturing that troll, she's not only against that but also sperging at mc like he's commiting a crime or something. Hopefully she will calm down when he personal quest start and romance proceed further

That was one of the handful of spots where their alignment choices really dropped the ball. I wanted an LG option for “stop torturing the troll and kill it humanely, I don’t want trolls in my land or your fucked up torture dungeon, gtfo”

She is an insane tank though. Can solo pretty much every mob with that necklace that does damage over time thing and a proper build.

She is good enough as 11+ TSS/rest stalwart without need for dips even for higehr difficulties (though unfair is an issue for her on act 1 before you get things rolling)

>VIIR might be better
VIIR is a straight downgrade of VII, just retarded easy, while VII was a pretty challenging game with meaningful resource management. Where as in VIIR you overlevel very quickly and get fully healed (SP as well) after each battle, so you just spam your strongest shit and steamroll.

Also, all the cool 4K graphics mods are for VII only, VIIR is locked to 1080p and no modder wants to touch it.

I like FFF and Death End Request.
They are not high quality games, though.

>>3615125
>Looks at this game made by the oldest employee of this company that is allowed to do whatever he want without caring about sales
I wish nihon falcom let Kiya and old developer do the same with Ys, Xanadu, Sorcerian was a 1/100 .
But well western Falcom fanbase are filled with those dumb tard console warring and salesfagottry

Death End has a really novel idea of "pinballing" enemies off each other after you attack them.
The problem is that it's just no visually congruent with the battle system's camera or your controls.

There's a really really good concept there though of layering up attacks and bounding enemies off each other like Dragon Ball Z, but it's not there in the game.

*fingers dickhole* Doesn't seem like it

I sure did. I enjoyed how you were allowed to slowly absorb the bleakness of the setting, I like how increasing your power and skills feels meaningful because of the learning curve and I liked the survival stuff. My favorite thing about it though was that I feared defeat in this game more than any other. Defeat in Outward isn't a reset, its being thrown into a hole you have to climb back out of. Sometimes literally.

Good game.

>>3612174
I went through intro and got bored. That's it.

Never played octopath, why the comparisons?
I guess saga always these type of weakness depending on the enemy defenses, but now it seems more gamey and egregious: attack with x to double your damage

The problem was that they advertised implementing combos(I guess it's United Attacks) into RomSaGa2, great idea but it's a terrible idea to link this mechanic to weakness spam.

Played the demo.
I love the table top RPG from Emerald/Scarlet but Romancing felt better with dungeons and a City.
No cure was a good idea in Emerald because in Scarlet It sucked, but in Romancing is better having It.
Combat is slower and worse than Emeral , felt more FFX in tone.
I think this is Xeen B team (Trials of Mana director was in Episode Aegis) but was accesible enough for casual.
I have rather this be the casual path while they let Kawazu be crazy with a Blue Theme saga.

>>3616895
It's two reasons.
First one being this remake trashed SaGa's mainstay combat attribute system that has been a thing since forever ago, that alone is pretty bad, to make thing worse they used Octopath's combat attribute system which is simply bad and inferior to what SaGa's original mechanics used to be.
If you haven't played either, in SaGa combat uses physical and elemental attributes, you have Slash/Strike/Pierce and Heat/Cold/Lightning, in the original RS2 there were two more attributes, Missile and Status, the former was mostly relegated to things like arrows and some projectiles while the latter used to be kind of a messy attribute that mostly regulated things that, as the name implies, were tied to status effects, so poisonous gases, mushroom spores and the likes.
Now these are all gone and replaced with some nonsensical shit like "Sword" or "Spear", which cause all sorts of issues and are entirely nonsensical.
The second issue is that they introduced a new mechanic, Overdrive, which is essentially the Break gauge from Octopath, it's a gauge you fill up by hitting enemy weakness and it allows your party to chain various attacks (chosen pseudo randomly mind you) together for big DPS.
This is also something that has no place in this series for a lot of reasons, first off because gauge mechanics were avoided like the plague until the now due to not being in the spirit of the series, and also being bad, secondly because to enact this shallow gameplay loop they nerfed status effects, which were a major element of the original game and overall a major element in the series, they just want you to look at big numbers like in Octopath where nothing matters outside of your DPS stacking.

In RS2 remastered I could give everyone in my team an axe and spam reverse delta in every boss fight. Am I going to have to make a balanced team because of weaknesses or whatever?

>>3616920
No, they happen after.

What are your favourite kiseki combat wise?
I think the top 4 is Third/Zero/CS3/Hajimari

>>3616929
For me, it is just the recent ones in terms of combat, Kuro 2, Kuro, Hajimari, Sen 4. You can really see that they try to improve combat with each new game. And make it more fun.

>>3616932
They're trying, but I'm not entirely sold on the turn order system of Kuro. It kinda takes away a nice big element from the previous games.

I also don't know how to feel about the orbment system yet, but I'm also only in chapter 3. Feels like I have little to no reason to change plugins so far.

>>3616934
True, the turn order is a bit questionable and takes time to get used to. Hopefully, they tweaked it for Kai.

>>3614532
NTA but every area of V is a 3D dungeon, they are always danger zones designed with labyrinthine paths and plenty of midbosses and hidden treasure on the way to the big boss in the end. Structurally the game is very similar to Strange Journey (And EO by extension) where you have a home base you adventure to different sectors from.


Also amongst the 3D games, I would say the 3 (4 with the school) "traditional" dungeons in V are about par or slightly worse than Nocturne but better than IV and DDS 2 (with DDS1 still having the best dungeons of the 3D games).

>>3614719
The maps are not structured like dungeons at all, especially now that they took away the abyss blocking the mini map. There are no puzzles and they are easy to navigate and no maze like at all. It's always clear what the path forward is and alternate paths are short and lead to a treasure box a majority of the time.

>>3609563
Nah, it's the secret bad ending that requires extra steps to get.

>>3591978
The music nice.
The doimons are just waifus again. Lilith isn't that bad though.
The dungeon they replaced the shit dungeon with is only slightly less shit but still fucking horrible.

they made the party building substantially more fun and I liked running themed teams across the various cycles to try and squeeze some life out of it. But, the balance is still impossibly shit.
I don't even think it was planned this time. Like Masakado being such a heavy lifter is obviously a design but Gog, Arioch, etc I'm pretty sure they had no fucking clue what they were doing again.

Replayability still fucking sucks ass. I shouldn't be reaching back to fucking WoFF for a NG+ mode that doesn't break in the end game this hard.
They've been in this game for decades. This still shouldn't be something they're fucking struggling to do.
Godborn is unbelievably shit as a difficulty and if it was going to be that poorly they should have just outright delayed the feature and hired somebody who knows what they're doing.

It's a package that looks nice and sounds nice. But fucking Devil Children has more of a bite than this game.
I swear these games are getting progressively less attention to the actual mechanics as time goes on.

>>3591978
It’s a good game but a mediocre Megaten game.
Gameplay is fun, overall - it’s just a bit annoying by how nerfed the buffs/debuffs are with each new passing Megaten game. The real drawback is the atmosphere, last good SMT games on that front were 3 and SJ.
