The only sprites that really bother me are the companion sprites for Lenny, Myron and Vic. They are unbearably slow to follow you because of their animation, which makes bringing them along for fights a chore because you're always waiting for them to catch up. Outside of that, Fire Geckos are kind of annoying, but also because if how dangerous they are... slow and they easily kill you with flame. I dont mind the others. Mobsters look the worst, imo. They are so stiff.

There are rumors that Square Enix is going private.

Wanna share a little known RPG you loved with others? Post about obscure RPGs here so others can discover them!

My submission is CHRONICLES OF RADIA WAR on Famicom.

Tecmo dropped this fucking banger in '91 and it got left behind in Japan because the West was transitioning to 16-bit. A English localization was actually almost finished before it was scrapped. It abandons turn-based battle for real-time action combat with zero random encounters. You actually see enemies on the field, walk up, and beat their ass. You get a full 4-man party with on-the-fly tactical AI commands—tell your party to back off, focus fire, or heal while you tear shit up.

The late-era Tecmo anime cutscenes done ala Ninja Gaiden look incredible for 8-bit hardware and the story actually has momentum. Check out this cool anime TV commercial from Japan:
https://youtu.be/HQGQpf54IX0?is=oOzYoenNDT6QmM-5 [Embed]

Is it perfect? No. The difficulty drops off a cliff in the second half, the gear customization is pretty basic, and the fan translation is a little rough around the edges. But the pacing is fast as hell and it puts many western-released NES RPGs to shame.

Get the fully patched English ROM here:

Would the totally unoriginal "crossdress to gain access to gender-exclusive areas" thing really cause so much of a fuss? Sure, the game is pretty crass, but the sexism is depicted as strictly negative. There's more to take offense with when Judd slaps the shit out of his girlfriend than in the entire warring same-sex cities arc.

Cute, but way easy and basic. The idea of a musical RPG is kind of cute, but in practice it just means you get some long cutscenes every so often. They are deeply charming games, though, and the sprite artwork is a treat

I didn't get that far, but I liked it enough to go on and enjoy other SRPGs. Is it worth getting one of the newer updated versions, or is the PS2 classics version good enough?

Was in the mood for something unc so I'm playing the PS1 remake of Wizardry 1; it's my third tile-based dungeon crawler aside from EOU1 and The Dark Spire. Everything can be switched to English except for spell descriptions but GameFAGs has me covered on that. Currently mapped out a good chunk of Floor 3 after farming Murphy's Ghost for XP so my priest could get Latumofis and stop my party from getting raped by poison every other encounter. So far, I like it; it's not blowing me away, but it's cool to experience what DRPGs and almost every JRPG come from.

Pretty much this and it's what people who try to compare Skyrim to other, far more railroaded RPGs like Witcher 3 don't get. The freedom and role-play potential is what makes TES games so appealing to someone with an imagination.
>>
>>4071422
It's good but like all Elder Scrolls games, it plays differently from traditional western rpgs. It's more about you larping as the character you want to play and deciding what quests to do or how you want to play based on that character.
So you can easily be a schizo that does all quest lines, join the imperials and then kill the emperor with the dark brotherhood and then become a werewolf for the companions, then get drunk and end up on the other side of the country after a drinking game with a daedra. OR you can also just do nothing other than building your house and reading books, or collecting all the gems across all dungeons for a shitty crown, etc.
In that sense, it is a lot closer to simulation games like Kenshi rather than a crpg.

When kcd-III comes out, the series will become the single best immersive rpg trilogy ever.

The fact that both first games use exactly the same engine is awesome. The continuity in feel is unequaled.

They could have taken exactly the same gameply, slapped a new story on top of it and the game would also have been awesome. But no, they refined the gameplay, trimmed off some excess, expanded in interesting directions.

Lets not even talk about the fact that there is zero competition.

Yes, because the game had picrel. The bronze age had nothing resembling it.
It's an iron anvil in an iron smithy and a plot-point in the game. Which wasn't even the fucking point, but a wink at the "bronze age". But you still butt in while being a clueless, ignorant retard who probably didn't even play this game.

Sure. But "smithy had anvils" (which is what you actually posted) is not the same as "the anvils depicted in game are inaccurate" or "the smithy was working iron" (which is evidently what you meant). Here, I already helpfully explained why I'm making fun of you in an earlier post >>4076090

Don't worry about it, I was being a bit insouciant. Not everything has to be the most serious thing in the world. For what it's worth I didn't actually think you were angry, the opportunity for a joke was just too good to pass up.

I do actually agree with you in that it's not strictly a pseudo-bronze age setting, though I can understand why people describe it as such because it gets a lot of focus during the game and it's a rare setting, especially for rpgs. I played and enjoyed the game, Sirin was my favourite character followed by Lantry and Verse.

Who knows? I think SoS half of the series burnt itself out with the building/decorations somewhere between A New Beginning and Olive Town so I think that also has an effect on RF
From what we saw in the trailer, I didn't see much room to decorate, but that's not necessarily a bad thing.
Though I do wonder if we'll have character customization, those woolies were all unique.
