Or, just do what they do for melee stuff in RPGs and make it literally magic. DnD forever has had it that at higher levels you're getting magic weapons and armor and whatever.
It also doesn't make sense that someone did enough bicep curls that they can go from killing a rat to slicing a building sized machine's steel armor.

Yeah you're full of shit though or just terminally weeb brained because ER hits a lot of those notes. Granted DD2 has moments with cool NPCs, DD1 had a lot more sadly.

I'd prefer DD2 smother mechanics and customization + ER level difficulty for sure, but we don't get what we want because J-dev took a shortcut based on his ego and rep and got paid anyway is the truth of the matter here.

You won't get better from Capcom or any dev if you keep defending slop and not recognizing the competitor's advancements.
Look at Mon Hun which even shared dragon skeletons with DD1 once upon a time, Capcom pours budget into that yearly because people consume GAAS slop and pretend it's great and perfect, mostly because they're terrified the dopamine skinner box drip will dry up same as POE players.

>>3863624
It's red barren landscape on a time limit because it sucks and they wanted to limit your time in rushed content is the brutal truth.
I get what you're saying and even agree but you can't ignore the truth of DD2's shallow and pathetic post game content compared to even Everfall much less Dark Arisen. There's literally like 2 unique monsters and items there, it's fucking sad how rushed it feels.

The story is mostly removed. Cutscenes are stripped-down to have minimum dialog. It's not really supposed to make sense (you can switch between the World of Balance and World of Ruin at will). It's just supposed to be a fun (and fast) way to engage with the gameplay.
> Level scaling or not?
There are dozens of settings and tweaks, I admit I haven't played it enough to know them all. I just rolled a few seeds without much randomization so I could play the game without having to slog through all the random battles and cutscenes.

>>3859552
I played IX, VII, VI, X and VIII in that order between the ages of 12-15. It was the right age for FF and in that mindset, VI just resonated the most. It's not that deep.

However, if you're an actual adult playing these games, you should really consider why you're doing this.

It makes me so sad that Fromsoft stopped making these somber dungeon crawlers. I really have no interest in soulslikes and their heavier focus on action and boss battles. King's Field IV is their definitive masterpiece.

BG3 is at least on par with Elden Ring, better in some ways considering it's a full RPG with real character gen, companion voiced stories, co-op, multiple storylines etc, worse in some ways as it has a bit of woke that's really buried under Larian horniness/fanservices. Meaning it is the winner in RPG/Eroge category vs. the straight JRPG/ARPG category.

Vaguely related, but whats your cutoff point for QOL features in an RPG?
I am liking this game but holy fuck every interface is a slog to go through, the fact that running in maps is so god damn slow and you can't split up your party to loot corpses and even worse you have to wait for your entire party to very VERY slowly climb ladders, jump off cliffs or whatever one by one for the party to move on is infuriating.

One of the very few things 3 did better than NV was random encounters. NV basically had zero, every group of NPCs was hand placed. Great for planning routes but it meant everything was predictable, which influences replayability. Which is doubly a shame because NV was the best FO for "builds" but not having random enemy encounters means you had less opportunity to utilize and react with your specialized build.

Clearly Confessor Cromwell is definitely the most schizo resident of Megaton. Maybe the most schizo character in the Fallout franchise or even the most schizo character in any RPG ever. You have to understand him standing in irradiated water 10 hours every day severely exacerbates his mental illnesses. Even the most stable member of Cromwell's cult probably makes even Moira Brown look legally sane by comparison

Bethesda kind of dropped the ball writing Cromwell's character because he oddly has no reaction if you deactivate the bomb. It'd be better writing if after you defuse the bomb he tells you that he hates you calling you a heretic and changes dialogue routine delivering epic schizo rants about how your character The Lone Wanderer is the most evil despicable monster in all the wastelands 10 hours every day standing in irradiated water. You can choose to try calming him down and get good karma points by telling him you feel genuinely guilty you killed his God and are very sorry and seek redemption but he spits in your face and continues screaming about how evil you are. Or you can get evil karma points by telling Cromwell to get help and stop abusing chems and you're genuinely delighted you murdered his God causing him to commit suicide 72 ingame hours later, which triggers a script for his wife and all of his cult members to commit suicide 72 ingame hours after Cromwell

What are your favourites? Ones with actually original good concepts and story and not just a cookie clicker or pure fighting. Preferably with only text and images and not a top down controllable character.

This game is the only fallout I've enjoyed and not modded. I'm always finding new things and with the wild wastelands perk, I just keep coming back to it.
Hate on it or not, don't care.
What RPG can you play over and over again, without mods?
You can give your reasons why, but expect people hating you for your opinion. It is 4chan.
Hope they can make another Fallout this masterfully written.

Also, wish the graphics were as amazing as the picture.

There was a german AI voiceover with original voices, until a popular voice actor declared he'd start suing people over stuff like that. Returning (that fuckhuge russian expansion mod) is getting a complete german AI voiceover with elevenlabs, some modders are creating a new tool for that. When they're finished they'll probably release it and you can easily adapt it to create an english elevenlabs voiceover for any mod.
Also the german community is now doing a fan voiceover for archolos, ETA probably 1-2 years from now.
