>Defeat a difficult boss>10 minute unskippable cutscene before you can save
>>4106952Looks super comfy. Reminds me of the Aethra Chronicles
>>4106952this feels kind of like a modernised gold box game
>>4098714>Game has job board in town A>Person next to job board tells me to meet person in town B about a job>Trek to town B>Find person>Person tells me they need my help and will post a job on the job board>Go back to job board in town A and accept job>"please come and see me in the town B"
>quest has a choice>weigh my options and pick what feels right for my character>dialogue afterwards implies a different motive for the choice that's incongruent with my character
>>4098717This happens to me in NES RPGs so much. I'll get lost and wander around for hours, gain a bunch of levels due to that, and then when I finally figure out where I'm supposed to be I just kill everything easily.
Do you expect anything substantial to release before chapter 6 comes out?
>>4111399Why do all the unbirthing and pregnancy discussions surround Martlet then? Ceroba, Chujin, Moray, and Starlo fans don’t push their fetish like this because they are not insecure troons.
>>4111391Golly anon, such harsh language!>>4111402>Why do all the unbirthing and pregnancy discussions surround Martlet then?Nta but because there are people with an obsession>Ceroba, Chujin, Moray, and Starlo fans don’t push their fetish like this because they are not insecure troons.Now now, theres no reason to insult fans of something just because there are people with an obsession over the same character but cant keep themselves under control
>4111402We are not taking the bait
>>4111402>Moray[...] fanscome on, let's be real
>>4111407They are rare but they DO exist, also kinda funny that people ship Moray with Martlet despite the fact that UTY seems to imply more of a relationship with Ed.
will it ever be topped? the story, side quests, followers, loot, builds you can make etc. there's nothing that comes close. nowadays everything is sterile and "balanced"
>>4110714I have a feeling they nerfed ranged damage because of the Archer kit, but then forgot to make +3 arrows
>>4110613I'll give it a go then, I'm playing on PS4 so I believe it's the enhanced editions, so I'll make sure to recruit a tank.
>>4110880At least in EE Enchanted Weapon spell makes equipped weapon strike as +3, including ammunition.
>>4110918That's a good change
>>4110880Half-way through chapter 2 my archers were already getting cucked by "My weapon is no use!".Meanwhile acid arrows in BG1 were indiscriminately raping everything and shitty fire arrows dropped by kobolds were +2.
Completely new to the series so this is going to be ignorant.I recently heard about a retranslation patch for 2 and I was wondering why? Is the translation particularly bad? And if so in what way exactly?
>>4110654Ah so it had ACTUAL problems rather than being like "quirky" then
>>4110656yeah, it completely botched a bunch of the lore too.
>>4110660Arigato anon. I haven't even played the first yet but when I get to the second I'll definitely check out the translation.
>>4110654does the patch also undo the censors? i remember way back then watching a vid about AT2 region differences and some of the CGs especially jaquli's gets hit
>>4110660>botched a bunch of the lore too.So as spoiler free as possible how bad?

Mag feeding in Phantasy Star Online. You have to wait 3 minutes and 30 seconds IRL before you're allowed to do it again, and you can only feed 3 items at a time. Mags have no restriction on level or stats, so you can give a max level one to a low level player, so why keep the time restriction?
Return of the king edition

>>4087892 it and /v/ were the highest traffic from 2014-2023, but this is probably a post lacking self-awareness due to a trip, so I'll leave it at that.
haha...
>>4069270^^^^
>>4059192People still play Trails with the English dub? I loved the dubs for CS1 and 2, but 3 had a clear quality drop and by Reverie it was severely compromised with a lot of mediocre lines. Kuro 1 I switched to subbed, and for the few minutes I have tested out the dub I was alienated. Van sounded bad, Elaine sounded like a middle aged woman, etc. But in Japanese, everyone sounds good, and Daisuke Ono as Van is great to listen to as the protagonist for 300 hours (also voices Jing Yuan in HSR!).>>4062362You will find more active discussion on RPGcodex, RPGhq, and Kiwi Farms.>>4066565Agreed. Crossbell was boring, and worse, you have to put up with it for not just 50 hours. Not just 100 hours. But 200 hours including its mandatory chapters in CS3, CS4, and Reverie.

>>4109327Don't cha wanna wait for U2U to come out? Then we could have a UWU jam with werewolves and pretend it's 2022 all over again.
>>4110511>UWU jam>enter with a game made in WOLFit's all coming together...
>>4110485>>4110420BCD and E tiles end up on the same layer,which means they overwrite eachother.Place floor tiles and wall tiles in A.Consider making some autotile wall / floor tiles.You can also use script commands to force the tiles to be on a lower or higher tile level, but it's tricky (and so far I know, no one made a tool that can do this).Also the top corner B tile has id 0, and is the default tile. It is the tile that is assigned to every tile and thus drawn on all tile layers when a map is made. You can use it as an eraser for the BCDE tiles, but not for A tiles.
I played Dragon Quest 1 recently. (NES version, in-browser)>OOOH, is that what RPG Maker is trying to do? Everyone wants to make Final Fantasy, not Dragon Quest.
>>4110855thanks, been trying to do the autotile thing with it but it's hard with the perspective they used because a lot of stuff is half-tile, but I think I've figured it out now
At what point did you realize that the best style of RPG is the Ultima perspective?
>>4096230>GOG hides the sauce files of the DOS games nowWATWhy would they do that?
>>4096348That's not true, I've never met a white person who liked caves of qud. Not even slavs
>>4096383i dunno? easier file management? they mostly seem to pak it all into an ISO file and rename it "something.game" or whatever, then load it from with some config file in DOSbox.

Are there any non-retro RPGs with really good exploration? What RPG has your favorite world to explore?
>>4106687Rogue Trader, going around exploring on the star map was cool.
>>4106774In the first zone I realized there was nothing to find, so I literally just did the main quest. I remember someone telling me how much they liked that song from when you first get out onto the giant's leg or whatever, I think the Smash Bros stage, and I didn't even remember it because I was there for like 5 minutes since I never explored. To answer your question OP, I don't know. I'm really conflicted on exploration in games. I like the idea of it, but I don't think there are many games where I enjoy doing it outside of like ... Zelda 1.
mass effect was comfy

The Steam achievements for Persona 6 have been leaked. Apparently the game has a cop/detective theme to contrast the phantom thief theme of Persona 5.https://www.exophase.com/game/persona-6-steam/achievements/
>>4086661I think there should be a penalty for doing a harem route. Like maybe you get locked out of rank 10's and if it's at rank 10 by the event where they find you out, then it goes back to 9 for all the girls. Or maybe one of them betrays your group and kills you in the other world. Or herself. Or maybe using teleporter technology, Takaya just shows up out of nowhere and shoots you in the face and your save corrupts and you need to go new game. Just something to remind the player that they're evil and playing the game incorrectly. But FATLUS doesn't have the balls. They will never have the MC be insulted ever again.
>>4087082They can't do pure supernatural. Gonna show social into this.
>>4095710I miss the original Persona 3.>Or maybe one of them betrays your group and kills you in the other world. Or herself.Kay this isn't bad.
>>4088655Same here
>>4087877>>4086661Trannies are malding on bluesky because P6's phantom detective protag was confirmed to be the son of Joker and Makoto (best girl, is anyone really surprised?) and thus invalidated any schizo headcanons they had over non canon ships
Hollowwald’s 1.10 update is in the works. The translation from Rusty Cradle is still on the way as well.Thirst’s translation from qudere still isn’t out yet.
>>4110911Huge. My dick can feel it.
>give Uula a sturdy rod>she says thisNah, fuck this shit. I'm out.
I had saved Tsue for last. I hadn't even unlocked her 2nd event yet but this is her info page. I was curious and tested it to make sure and every lewd event you do with another party member Tsue masturbates twice implying she is watching every time.
>>4111231That's pretty funny actually, I never realized
Uula's masturbation occurs from virtually any action: lewd scenes, traveling between areas, using transfer swords, etc. It seems she just masturbates casually whenever you aren't actively talking to her and thus is becomes like this very quickly.

You cannot argue in good faith against this masterpiece. It is objectively the greatest video roleplaying game ever created, and honestly probably the best video game ever created. Why do Millennials hate fun? Why do they hate the West incarnate?>The last Oblivion thread is still upGood, now there are two good threads on the board. No other RPG is worthy of discussion at this point.
>>4108745>endorsements: 1Just what people have been waiting for!(This is a joke about people whining about things they don't actually care about)
what is everyone's thoughts on FCOM, lads
>>4108841To be fair, it released just today and like i mentioned before, the modding scene for Oblivion is not causing as many waves so breakthroughs are quiet but great.>>4108956Im not a huge fan of gigantic overhauls or modpacks for any game really. They tend to both add certain features you probably dont like and hugely alter the game to the point you are playing something else which misses the point. Its better if you handpick all the mods yourself and have 100% tailored to your tastes experience.
>>4108995wasnt there already a spear mod?maybe i hallucinated that
>>4108745>enchanting as a skill but the only addition being the ability to have multiple enchantments in i posted a fun old mod earlier ITT that kinda does thatenchantment mastery. at the very least it gets you to that lategame morrowind crazy enchant feel which is extremely fun in oblivions physics engine lolthe thing i wanna see again is cast-on-use enchants. thats one thing that a warrior build in oblivion lacks, is a way to do some extra magic attacks/buffs/debuffs. ideally without investing into 2 stats they dont really care about. i always used to take enchant as a minor on my warriors in MW, just to have the extra options
