Red pill me on this game. I've run out of RPGs and want something to play. I remember playing this as a kid and dropped it in like an hour. All I remember is something about gay color orbs in combat. Is it worth trying again?
>>3983132>I know the game is piss easy, but it is insane to believe this game eliminated grind.I get what you're saying, you have to grind a bunch if you care about maximizing stats, but since there's no need to do it I don't think it matters unless someone can't get over missing stats.
>>3983286I mean, the entire of the game is the many characters you can play.
this was the one with like a ton of characters right??? worth it just for that alone, even if some of them are obvious OP
>>3983828and yet you can finish it without using them all, sort of like how you can still beat a pokemon game by using only your starter and filling the other slots with HM slaves so that you dont have to fill up one of your attack slots with a shitty move like flash, it saves up free time for you to focus on other things or maybe even possibly play an extra game since you dont waste time trying to pointlessly grind up your shitmons or side fodder you'll barely use due to the amount of people you can use in chrono cross
>>3984428>this was the one with like a ton of characters right???Yeah.>HarlepostingBased.>>3984453It's been a while since I've played it but I'm quite sure I just used the three strongest characters available at any given moment rather than bothering to level them all up.I'm an efficient motherfucker like that.
I think that Fighterfags puff themselves up by trying to portray themselves as the yes chad but are mostly just insecure about the fact that they want to play an unga bunga class but don't want to look like a moron for doing so. I have more respect for (Anti)-Paladin/Barbarian types who know that all they want is big number damage hits and nothing else. This is why they shit on people who like to play spell casters while weirdly enough the other two don't seem to mind so much.
>>3984991>(Anti)-PaladinNot a class, lost /tg/ faggot.
>>3984991>garbage zero-gameplay anime RPG Maker sludge thread>garbage opinionThis thread is extremely low quality and you should feel like a real retard for having made it.
>>3984991I loved Mogeko Castle and Wadanohara but I couldn't push myself to finish The Gray Garden. It was just too boring I'm sorry.
>>3984991I don't care about this topic, I just fucking hate this character and I'm glad she got vored by her hotter and more likable sister.
>>3986638Hot
My life was through once I first laid eyes on her. Wandering in off the cold rainy streets of balmora, enduring the cold stares of the hostile blue skinned nwahs that leared at me like angry alley cats. I got lost in the warmth of her eyes as she greeted me with a joke about elves and whether I had seen them. She was the first to acknowledge my mere existence. I was through as soon as she laid eyes on me. Finished. So when she told me to start a ruckus at the thieves guild with my sword arm I didn't hesitate. When she told me shake down the old cathouse in Suran I did so between sips of Skooma to numb the weight of my foul deeds. The imperial cult be damned, the blades be damned, the nine be damned, my previous allegiance to house redoran was in the crapper, all down the dark and seedy demented spiral of crime and debauchery and misdeeds that had become my life. And to think....all over a dame.
There's a sale going on, so I picked up a few titles I haven't played yet. I don't really like FuRyu games though.
>>3984987>Is there even that many?There's like 10 different mobs and around 8 to10 reskins for each and more unique boss models than mobs from what i've seen
Trinity Trigger looks like a classical JRPG. I just looked up average completion times, and it's under 20 hours.
I was in the middle of the Greed boss fight when the power went out. I was winning, but inching the units around hazards is a pain I don't want to do it all over again.
>>3986579It was pretty badplay Alliance Alive if you want something traditionalish
>>3986599>Alliance AliveI liked that one but they only published it
What are some good monsters for the early game in XIII-2? I also heard you can unlock some of the OG XIII cast. Is that a post-game thing or can you get them earlier? The game is pretty fun so far and lets you engage in combat system much earlier than XIII.
>>3986594plots sound stupid. girls are fine. sexsexsex ahhhhhhh...
Best way to play these two games? apparently both the Sega CD and PS1 versions have some pretty questionable localization/censorship and although I've heard of fan translations existing, I've been unable to find them anywhere. Also the NA versions apparently have some wonky balancing compared to the JP version, which is a problem as well
>>3984359They are shades of plum, a purple tone. Faggot.

>>3978625Dead Money for goldHonest Hearts for 1911Old World Blues for best girl stealth suit MKIILonesome Road to nuke both NCR and Legion
>>3978625Dead MoneyOWBHonest Heartsshit Lonesome Road
>>3978625desu Dead Money's writing is so annoying. they force the main theme down your throat over and over and over and over again.I GET THAT ITS ABOUT LETTING GO YOU DONT NEED TO TELL ME FOR THE 12TH FUCKING TIME!! I CAN ASSESS BASIC NARRATIVE THEMES!!!the resetting your gear and atmosphere do kinda make up for it tho.
>>3984142>Old World Blues is "funny" people with "funny" problems, and the penis-fingers aren't exactly helping me get in to the problems of the brains in jars.That's the whole point of the story though. They're locked in a prison of their own making, occupied with banal adolescent preoccupations which don't address their problems at all.It fits well if you think the central theme of the game is being trapped by the past. Better than Honest Hearts in fact. The departure in tone is annoying though.
Lonesome RoadDead MoneyHonest HeartsOWB because I think the combat is way more annoying than Dead money, I actually dropped OWB for a while because of that.
is anyone playing this?
It's just an smt clone, play smt if you want smt don't let these people siphon your money with a buggy plagiarized product. Demanding 20 dollars for something like this is just absurd
>this game with no monster catching mechanic is a clone of a monster catching gameIf you used your head just for a second you would notice its actually ripping-off Etrian Odyssey and DisillusionIts pretty much the exact same structure of a EO game hidden behind the pseudo-intelectual pretentious bullshit of Disillusion as a coat of paint
>>3985935It's very clearly lifted from SMT for the ui. I don't know about the gameplay
>>3985935I don't care what it's ripping off of, all I know is, it's ripping off of something and I personally don't approve of it because the game looks like boring mental illness/troon sewage.
Is there a mod that gets rid of the ugly portraits?
I'm about to play Witcher 1 (Enhanced Edition) for the 1st time and I'm new to the series. Are there any super essential mods required or should I just enjoy the game raw?
OP here, just finished it (at my leasure). It was good anons. Like I could see the junk in some places and the overall voice acting could definitely be improved...but it was not as bad as the internet suggested. The game definitely had atmosphere and charm. And since I've read that the series only gets improved in each game, that sounds awesome. Taking a short break playing some FNV before moving on to Witcher 2."B-But that sword is for monsters..."
>>3983390>and the overall voice acting could definitely be improved...Shove off, kid
>>3983390>junk in some places>voice acting could definitely be improvedyour mother sucks dwarf cock
>>3983390>voice acting could definitely be improvedEnglish version is shit and Doug Cockle was a miscast.
>>3983390Use the polish dub
Shitty aesthetic and wacky memery aside, I like this game. I liked the overall story and I liked how both sides you can choose had a legit argument for them. Usually for games its like one side is>super duper evil muhahahahaha and you destroy the worldvs>goody two shoes where everything works out and this is the devs obvious choice you should pick
>>3985155Nope, there's a way to do it without Gippers, with Holy Detonation (or if you really want to kill Valor, blackmailing them by kidnapping Raegan). Nor do you NEED to fuck over the refugees, you can actually balance them with the Marshals with some effort to the point they're both happy.Just because there's not clear speech checks doesn't mean there's not an objectively best choice.
>>3985178>holy detentionWith how many people complained about the grippers on reddit, its kinda disappointing that they added an alternative way, but at the same time atleast you have to sacrifice one player-made char to make peace with both factions in that dlc.>balance them with the Marshals with some effortThe fact it requires effort and knowledge that you probably wouldn't know in your first playthrough already makes it better than most other rpgs in the diplomacy department.
>>3984404I tried playing it shortly after a Wasteland 2 playthrough and just wasn't feeling it at the time, nothing wrong with the game in particular I think I just got burnt out.
>>3984404Try wasteland 2 instead.
>>3985367Wasteland 2 was OK but Wasteland 3 was shit. This is logically consistent.
Did any other RPGs ever have level design as creative as the first Kingdom Hearts? Tons of platforming, secrets, riddles, puzzles etc
>>3985955KH1 has a weird level design philosophy where despite being an action game, half the content of every level is random stuff like riddles, trinities, platforming challenges, (enemy) puzzle challenges like white mushrooms, and shenmue-style "find the correct guy to talk to" stuff like in shenmue.KH2 went the complete opposite direction by turning every level into a big combat arena. There are a handful of levels in KH2 like Agrabah and Hollow Bastion that have some of this stuff but nowhere near the amount it was in KH1.
>>3986106That´s probably because the original KH was trying to keep mechanics associated to Disney games (but translated to 3D). You know, stuff like Mickey castle of illusions or the adventures of Chip & Dale which were sidescrollers. Back then it was probably conceived as one of those collab fanservice games... I don´t think anyone expected it to become so big that it could rival FF in popularity, they just struck gold. And then ruined it by releasing tons of subpar games as it´s customary
>>3986177>And then ruined it by releasing tons of subpar games as it´s customary Honestly, Birth By Sleep kiiiiiind of scratches the same itch that KH1 does in my brain. In retrospect that game feels like one section of a Disney theme park, though a very wacky, clumsy, poorly made one which nonetheless still gives you what you came for. Maybe KH3 does too, I haven't played it.
>JRPG fans think that children's games have great "puzzles" & level design
>>3986489They're kind of like adventure games without the ballbusting difficult puzzles. It's very neat IMO
What game or games had your favorite quests? Could be side quests, main quests, or just some interesting ones.
>>3985999Arcanum. Plenty of interesting side-quests abound.
>>3985999Witcher 3 had entertaining quests
Zelda, and it's not even close.
>>3986278What kind of disability makes grown ass men think that toddler games for the Nintendo are the best thing since sliced bread?
>>3985999fable doesn't have great or intricate quests but it does have some memorable ones, like the one where you cuck a ghost in 2.
Are there any rpgs with a similar concept as geneology of the holy war? As in having a first generation of characters that you play matchmaker/eugenicist with that directly influence the second generation cast? Awakening kind of had this with its gen 2 but they used time travel shenanigans and are relagated to late game sidequests, which fates does as well except with an even lazier excuse than time travel
>>3984740Wildermyth would be the closest, but it's more of a "heroes of legends have children that will have to try to match them in deeds and fame" kind of vibe.
>>3984740the Argest War series

>>3981245I always play normal. And then if I find out there's extra content for dom I make a separate uber optimal character just for that.

Go crazy with it. Imagine you have unlimited resources and time. I'll start. >Large sandbox RPG >Set in Roman Empire during 3rd century crisis>Large focus on historical authenticity >Basically Red Dead Redemption meets Kingdom Come: Deliverance, but set in 3rd century Rome and with character customisation >Gigantic scale sandbox comprising the entire Roman empire plus some fringe areas like Germania>Choice of starting province and profession to determine race, skills and starting loot>Start as a mercenary (in place of gangster/outlaw)>Recruit crew, take contracts, choose between special story missions for generals to influence the outcome of the game>Buy land, property, slaves, equipment>Create passive income with slave farmers, whores, gladiators etc>Gain status through achievements, sacrifices, donations, marriage etc>End game is to become a general and help restore Rome
>>3984783before anyone calls me schizo they're making a movie based on pic related and anon isn't going to see shit from it. Stop posting your ideas for free on 4chan.

I love the idea of this thread, thanks for making it. Before I post some random ass game ideas, does anybody here know of a forum for the theme of this thread? I think there was some old Subreddit a long time ago that I stumbled onto with the idea of "THIS SHOULD BE A THING" - it didn't have to be games, just a place to spill out random ideas for inventions or things people wanted to see either built or developed. I do that whole synthesizing cool ideas thing a lot, where I know I'll never put in the effort to carry half of them out, but some are things that others could probably take and run with for a story inspiration, or develop into a game, or anything else along those lines. I think there was a sub that also had the theme of "Make this into an app" for people who would think of potentially good apps but who weren't themselves developers or programmers that could actually carry it out.Anyway I would think a game with the graphics and mechanical gameplay of Dark Souls coupled with the extra heavy, dark, horror art and theme of games like Pluto, Fear & Hunger, or other recent indie games with those insanely creepy enemies at atmosphere, mixed with the writing and character development and depth of something like an HBO show. By this I mean heavy on the adult themes but not for gratuitous reasons, not done in any egregious manner. I'm thinking of high quality writing on the order of things like The Wire, The Sopranos, Breaking Bad (I know this isn't HBO, but it is S-tier writing), Game of Thrones (first 5 seasons were amazing, even if you don't like the show the writing is great), or other high caliber productions.I know that's basically impossible to make come together because the game would need everybody to be at the top of their game and it would likely cost a lot to fund to make all of those variables coalesce into something perfect, but I see it in my head, it is possible, and it would be fucking beautiful.
My ultimate game would basically be a fantasy underrailI do enjoy the futuristic post-post-apoc setting, but my heart belongs to forests/elves/dragons/knights/etc. Going further, if it was some perfect holy combination of underrail (infusion looks like it´ll be even better), parasite eve 2, and tomb raider 3, and you can have a party like in most crpgs, thatd be the ultimate gameas for setting, Id like the typical cyrodiil/not!europe basis, with forests, mountains, rivers, seas (and ships), swamps, volcanoes, desert (rocky more than sandy), caverns, with plenty of dungeons ranging from tiny to gigantic, but also an emphasis on beautiful wild areas to traverse.If I could make my own infinity-engine game, it would be based around a portal nexus in faerun that would take you to a variety of environments, dungeons, and other planes or even other material worlds. Could use that idea for this game to facilitate all the different places the game would contain. I would prefer my own custom setting to faerun though. As for races and monsters there would be many of the usual D&D ones, but not all the D&D stuff.I genuinely dont give much of a shit about story; id be happy with an exploration sandbox campaign where there are things to get involved with and accomplish, and maybe some kind of endgame you can get around to when you feel like finishing.so *basically* what I want is a true D&D experience video game without all the shitty current sensibilities, and a very good DM with gobs of prepared material as a sidenote, Id also really like a sort of pokemon/earthbound-esque fantasy where you play a kid or group of kids who act like a party of adventurers where you go around a modern setting playing pretend but the stuff they imagine is real kinda like stick-of-truth in essence, but, you know, better, and not south park>>3931118bro, underrail
