I had 4 and 6 on console and played 5 on zsnes back in the day. "Pixel remaster* looks like such shit would never touch it. What is the best way to play these now?
>>4012841Audio engineering is a finished discipline, jackass. We solved the riddle of sound fifty years ago and the only remaining variables are the resources and talent of the people doing the thing. Sometimes it's good, sometimes it's supposed to be bad, and sometimes it's a waste of money to make everything hq and/or lossless. These are specific metrics with practical, replicable applications. Your faggot opinion is just noise.

>>4009217This, remasters are always the way to go
>>4011304>as well as naming some of Faris' pirates after Biggs and Wedgeholy shit I'm downloading this right now!
>>4012786If you're applying hacks anyway, you may as well hack the original rom. You will have objectively superior audio and video and you can add any specific hack you want (qol/translation/randomizer/graphics/content/etc).
Hello falcomfags. I'm playing Brandish: The Dark Revenant (PSP ver) for the first time. I'm currently on Cave B7. I knew there was a Warp spell but couldn't afford it until like 10 floors later.I'm trying to get 100% map completion in the game, but decided to wait until getting the Warp spell to backtrack and finish the maps I didn't 100%. This is because I VERY FUCKING REASONABLY assumed the Warp spell could send me all the way back to previous floors.Well after getting the spell now I realize you can only warp on floors you're currently on. I have maps I didn't finish at the very beginning of the game.. this would mean backtracking 25-30 floors to go and finish those maps.Before I do this, is there really not a way to warp back to previous floors later on? Because that is some goddamn motherFUCKING bullshit if so. What the fuck! WHAT THE FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>4015392it has a fan translation, retard.
>>4015392Dew ett yourself? Cannae bee worse than most transmission trendy fluid "translations" right now honestly
>>4015392>>4015394>>4015396All translators should be butchered and dumped in mass graves.
>>4010657I like this game. Quit being lazy. It really shouldn't take that long.
>>4011023op doesn't want to be one of those fags that didn't beat the game
I'm 100 hours into Kingmaker and I think i'm in chapter 2 or 3 and I everything about the game is really quite good, there's just one thing thats kind of ruining the entire experience and is tempting me to drop the game and Owlcat as a whole forever. Does the filler combat ever let up? Maybe it's because i'm playing turn based with a controller(pc) but it feels like i'm fucking drowning in combat all the fucking time. I'm playing on challenging and it kind of feels fucking ridiculous at this point and the pacing is completely fucked by virtue of constant never ending battle at all fucking times. Are all the Owlcat games like this? I already bought all of them because I heard they were on par with Larian. It doesnt even feel like there's a "little" too much combat it feels like the combat to story ratio is completely fucked 4x in the wrong direction and its blowing my mind and driving me a little crazy. Does anyone else feel this way or is it just me?
>>3972757>of which only Deadfire is really worth playingwhat a fucking horrible, horrible opinion lol.
>>4013206>Anti paladin is cool except I can't smite anyone.there's even a suitable armor set for it that, but you get it pretty late.
>>4015652>the only GOOD rpgs are Lord Sawyer's and Disco Elysium guysWe all know what kind of mental capacity we're dealing with here lol.
>>4015659i'm just quoting what you said bud
>>3968568No.
I am making a roguelike, where YOU are the emperor.Do you have enough iron will to beat all 100 floors of monsters? When you die, your game is over, and you must start again. This innovation allows for very tense gameplay. Wield many weapons, drink potions from healing to poison, and even enter shops to improve your gear.At the bottom of the dungeon lies the Sigil of Onra, which grants magic powers to its wielders. Prove yourself as the emperor, take the sigil, and return to the surface.Dislike my idea? Well, I'm very close to leveling up. And you look like just enough XP, haha.
>>4014331> Assume the role of President Anton Rayne and guide the nation of Sordland. Amidst brewing international conflicts, need for reform, deep-seated corruption, and economic recession, you must make the decisions in this political drama. How will you lead? >Do you have enough iron will to beat all 100 floors of monsters? When you die, your game is over, and you must start again. This innovation allows for very tense gameplay.

>>4008619Sounds kino. Do you have a EA Steam page yet? Itch.io? Where can we follow development? Is the game name 'Roguelike EMPIRE'?
>>4008764>where every day you must engage in vicious debatesLike DE? How would that even work?
>>4008619>When you die, your game is over, and you must start again. Nope. Not playing it
>>4015732You sure about that? I'm very close to my next level, and you look like a good source of XP, hahaha.
Rules>Square-Enix Characters Only>No JRPGs aren't Square-Enix (Like: Fire Emblem, Tales of, etc.)
>>4014642stop acting white
>>4014642kek
>>4014175This sounds like an oddly specific fetish
>>4014825tis a pity
It's been about a couple weeks since Chapter 5's release. Has this affected any fangames in any way? Was it that much of a nothingburger?Are you developing a fangame? Post progress!
>>4023032Nta but I thought it was a reference as well at the time.Though the little snippet about spanish online communities calling eachother terrorists is fantastic news to me.I want to call people terrorists for having bad opinions.
>>4023036That is a very fun fact to know about now, true.
>>4023031>>4022874On second thought, don't answer this. I prefer imagining an answer.
>>4023031>the Deux Ex guy was also a terrorist making a bunch of really out there claims, though everything he said was true.Technically speaking the game doesn't allow us to fact check his claims on corporate and individual tax rates when it comes to the exact numbers he was talking about, so that remains unverified.He's probably still right though, yeah.
I don't even have an idea I want to draw of him right now, but Reynault is once again occupying my brain now.That talk of foxes being possessive towards their lovers has inflicted me with the idea of him saying random nonsense to prevent me from getting out of bed before him so we can cuddle more, like that he'll freeze to death in my absence without me there to warm him, or acting obviously fake sad at the idea of me not wanting to stay in bed with him, whatever absurdities he can conjure to make me lay back down with him for just a while longer.God, that damned, stupid, ridiculous, charming, handsome, lovely fox...
The pathfinder series is a kino vrpg of the highest order. And I've never pretended otherwise. We all know all good things come in three !So, when will Owlcat deliver a third game?
>>4013417It's never happening again. The developer stretched themsevles too thin, and they don't even have the resources to finish their UE5 game.If you're lucky you will get a new 40K game every 3-4 years.
Just started Wrath and after many hours and restarts fucking around with builds for my MC, I've finally made it to the mongrel village and levelled up, opening me up to more build indecisiveness.Thoughts on building Wenduag into a colluding scoundrel hunter? Planning on taking 4 levels in fighter for the feats/armour training and taking Boon Companion to make up the difference for the animal companion. The teamwork feats and the pet will work well with my Cavalier MC. Would her low wisdom be a problem for spellcasting at higher levels? My plan is to just load her spellbook up with self-buffs and maybe spend her stat increases on wisdom if necessary.
>>4014370>Thoughts on building WenduagShiggy diggy
Just picked up WotR. The game's cool but the writing is very retarded at times. Mffw Nenio shows up with some absolute reddit chungus tier bs
>>4014695>be me>played Kingmaker, it was OK>oh hey their next game is about a crusade against demons>sweet, sounds like it's PALADIN TIME>roll up a crusader of Iomedae>three minutes into the game I meet a jive-talking Nubian who claims to also be a paladin>"It's nice to be stuck down here with somebody who's my kind of crazy!">my smile and immersion... goneOf all the games that desperately needed a paladin played straight, this was it. I can't even think of one in the (((last 20 years))). Probably NWN2.
was kreia that good of a character to warrant such a long video essay?
>>4011568At their core Sith are basically force users that rely on emotion instead of discarding it. This tends to lead to them using things like anger and fear because they're incredibly powerful, which leads to the biggest psychos being the most personally powerful.They do use love though, in TOR Malgus kills his twilik waifu because she 'made him weak' and the resulting angst it causes him immediately grants him power on par with the strongest force users in the setting.
>>4013207But you can't discard emotion. Emotion informs logic, people with head trauma who lose their emotions become unable to think properly and make even simple decisions. Sounds like a flawed Western conception of Buddhism.
Why didn't the force-only guy just kill Kreia
>>4014120who nihilus? he uses saber too
>>4014394>who nihilus?Literally who
The final game released
I'm really glad you guys are keeping shit spoiler free but I'm actually getting angsty trying to get to Utawarerumono Past and Future. (Still in Monochrome Mobius and it's so fucking slow - which would be fine for a VN but as a JRPG it's so fucking boring). I just want to know, is it a true sequel for the trilogy? Were you satisfied with it? How would you rank it? I want to really know people's impressions on it but I'm scared to find spoilers. Like people talk about MoT hype scenes all the time but I hear nothing for Monochrome nor Past and Present.
>>3992425man ngl I found Prelude lore fucking confusing as hell. I get the gist but the events don't just map together in my head.
bump hello
HELLO PEOPLE
I started Monochrome Mobius but wasn't very into it. When it was revealed the new Uta was a direct sequel to MM I lost motivation. Shame it's the final Uta game, I've been with the series since the fanTL of the first game.
Any shmups with rpg elements aka you level up or upgrade somehow? Sounds like a fun mix. The void rains upon her heart is more of a roguelite than anything
>>4009413That's basically what Nier, Returnal, and Saros are. 3D bullet hell type rpgs.
>>4009802Kill yourself.
>>4009413Off the top of my head, Sigma Star Saga (already mentioned) is probably the fullest vision of this. But since it's Wayforward, it feels a little off to actually play. There are a number of shooters with money and upgrade mechanics, like Fantasy Zone. U.N. Squadron by Capcom is a further refinement on this where you can pick what missions you want to take, earn money, and get upgrades, including health. So maybe give that one a shot.
>>4009413There's a flash game I played back in the day called Starwish that does thisThough it's really more of a visual novel with gameplay sections than a full shmupGood writing too, especially for a flash game
Do you think the leaks are real? If they are real what do you think of them?
>>3996814This logo is so lame
>>3991550It's bad ai. Waste of a thread. Kill yourself.
>>3991550I'm laughing at the designs.
after how dogshit metaphor was I have 0 expectations for this game
>>4021592Don't worry, the team that made that shit is not the same
So Square Enix scrapped Flames of Fate and started over. What do you think of the new Dragon Quest 12?
>>3992596I bought Dragon Warrior 7 after FFX because that's when it came out. 7 is a great adventure. You constantly restore parts of the world through heroic vignettes, which actually feels rewarding. None of the stories overstay their welcome. Darma is such an oh fuck moment. You can exploit the gambling if you want. You can grind jobs if you want. Player knowledge is hugely rewarded as far as jobs go. Jobs are enough of a grind and hard enough to change that you force yourself to overcome areas and bosses with what you have rather than what is optimal. Equipment has varied enough qualities that there isn't really a best.
>>3991559They didn't do that, they have problems due to western guidelines of localization.>you can't put if is a male or female, you have to use type of character either type A or type B but give same options to both types.>you can't make sexy female characters and say they are women/female because is offensive.>you can't add certain customizations through armors is offensive to "players" so no bikini armor.>you can't make sexy bunny girl as asobinin you have to use a neutral design for both.Blame western fags for the delays overall.>draquest 7 reimagined is launched.>butchered beyond recognition.>no more visual change of babydoll for maribel.>no more dungeon exploring because current gamers hate that.>add shitty content story because of the implication kiefer became the final enemy in the game either original or remake 3ds.As long there are mental ills this won't launch at all until law changes.
>>4006965>I bought Dragon Warrior 7 after FFX because that's when it came outNo it's not
>>39925967 gets carried heavily by being the only dragon quest game to really lean into having a group of little kids as your party, it adds a lot of charm to the story experience that you don't get from say 5 or 8.
>>3991559I would have prefered the edge.
>finally give this game a try>skits are dead silentWhy was this allowed?
>>4012723>>4012736>>4012742Not only did we get PS2 Abyss in the US but it also had several changes like balance adjustments, second mystic artes for every characters, an extension to Luke's first mystic art, new mystic artes for Nebilim and other small changes like changing the time window for some side quests and requisites for some titles.
>>4012814This was also the case for star ocean 3 and rogue galaxy on ps2. The west got the advanced ports which added content moves and fixed balance issues
>>4012634The remaster will probably have fully voiced skits. Eternia remastered is getting a new translation and included skits.
>>4012610To filter "people". "People" that play with english voices are subhuman.
>>4012636From my experience they're not too bad in the other games, but do remember that Tales' appeal is heavily rooted in characters and their interactions.
>Heh, this Hero of Gothic doesn't even realize what rich and adventurous back story I ha-ACKHis last thoughts before you killed him for his overpowered one handed sword.Apologize.
>take a break>come back and update to latest patch>environmental sounds like walking and rolling, etc. are goneWot
>>4016129good, bloat
>>4015475what a stupid cheesy poster
>>4016129afaik they got restored, what they did patch (and I'm glad they did) was the bone crunch sound every time you hit someone with an arrow>thread almost gonehopefully a new one will be made, just got Gothicc and had a blast fighting the swamp camp champ in the arena, holy fuck that was hard
I BOUGHT THE REMAKE WHERE THE FUCK ARE THE CUTE GOTH GIRLS
Witcherbros, we eating good
>>4013492Yes. Ciri Witcher ending with Geralt retired in the vinyard with yennefer is the canon ending.
>>3990808ciri's game already flopped so hard they devolved to 3 to make back the potential losses, about to see an asset flip of all asset flips. gonna make unity asset flips look genuine
>>4013692Powerful
>>4013692Stunning and brave.
Such a shame killing radovid is not canon
