Are we talking about the game, or the system?
If you are saying that FFVII encounters are braindead easy for someone who loves exploiting the materia system, I would agree. But you keep saying that "i can use bolt and cure all the time, so materias suck"
You don't see the stupidity in this?

Probably the Gold Mine in Earthbound with the mole bosses. Maybe ADOM's Infinite Dungeon? I do kinda wish Dragon's Dogma 2 had actual dungeons, but the open world could be considered a mega dungeon, since it's not trivial to navigate or find things. And I just refuse to tolerate any negative commentary about either of the Dragon's Dogma games. Kingmaker had good dungeons. Wrath had several good dungeons. Underrail's GMS Compound and Junkyard are pretty iconic and fantastic dungeons. The final dungeon in Final Fantasy 6 was pretty epic and unforgettable. Deadfire's Old City Ruins dungeon was definitely the largest in the game, I think, and very good for being a relatively open-roam layout and classic boss at the end.

But it's worse in every way. SH2 judgement rings are not only customizeable, they're affected by status ailments and they determine how optimal an attack is kinda like a dice roll you have more control over, the QTEs in E33 are completely meaningless, they simply determine in a very binary way if a move works or doesn't and they can even be turned off with no cost to the player, unlike automatic judgement rings which make the ring realiable but always weaker than manual use.
E33 sucks dick, AND Shadow Hearts blows it out of the fucking water on a fundamental level.

I think the game expects you to do Jongle's questline, if only so you can learn that you probably shouldn't accept any quest you come across. I don't think Troika would've added a way for you to fix the steam engine if that wasn't the case.

Recommend me some lesser known rpgs pf any subgenre. Played almost all of the well to somewhat known games (especially CRPGs)

Prefer something that has a decent story/characters and I prefer party based over solo, but anything works.

Boring overhyped soulless gookslop walking simulator, just as I expected ever since it was announced. Same predictable pitfalls as any MMORPG developer trying to make a single-player RPG - Massive map size with grandiose graphics, but no real reason to linger anywhere, unless you're one of those retards who thinks that watching a scripted animation of some NPC's grappling each other or sitting around a campfire is 'content'.

On top of that they picked the worst type of gookslop worldbuilding theme too - which is gooks trying to 'authentically' imitate cookie cutter medieval european environments, by making everyone an uncanny looking viking mogger, making every enemy a human, the bosses as humans with slightly bigger swords or increased to 2x size, ugly basic bitch plate armors for 'realism', and turnips for items.

>"OMG, WHITU PEEPO!! DIS WOT DA WHITU PEEPO USED TO BE LIKE!!! DOHOHOHO VERY COOL!"

Very exciting and novel for South Koreans devs who are used to a gook and weeb fanbase from Black Desert Online, but completely oversaturated if you ever played a WRPG in your life. Doesn't have the otherworldly gook fantasy feel of Monster Hunter or Elden Ring, and fails at having any of the atmosphere or charm of KCD2 or even Assassin's Creed, because gooks think that just having white people with plate armor and swords fighting in an Alpine forest is already an innovation.

Even the chuds who feel obliged to glaze every game that has le manly white men and Evropa in it are forced to admit through clenched teeth that the gameplay is kind of trash.

Nest of eagles basically tests if you understand the ap system and how waiting can be beneficial. If you just rush in like a retard, like I did when I first played through the game, you'll get slaughtered. If you wait though and let the enemies come to you you can thin them out before the bosses get to you. And if you get lucky with the rng you'll have the ap for gae bolg so if it procs, and it likely will at low br, you can basically just aoe wipe everyone. The last time I played through the game on switch gae bolg proc'd twice in a row on David and made the fight trivial.

So the two discolikes, zero parades and esoteric ebb, anyone else feel weird about them?
I didn't like them. Am i being unfair or weird about not liking any of the disco likes? Ebb I feel is so easy to know the DNA of it, that you feel you know how it was approached to make it not disco elysium, I know which skills and elements it wants to lift but I am not interested.
Zero parades just feels off and uninteresting? It feels like catching a movie that you don't care about, it's headache inducing. The skills and everything there.

Both games really want to cast and have Harry but they just can't sell it. I don't feel like both characters are justified in trying to copy Harry, the so random and pathetic options don't come across as honest. It's dollar store Harry. I just don't know why. The skills and settings are uninteresting, the quality of writing is inferior.
When i played DE, I was in from moment one, I just liked it and kept playing. I replayed it over and over. The copies dont grab me like that

It's 100% contemporary, all of it. Well, most of modern "fantasy" products are.

>>
>>3953969
Absolutely, great point anon. The game feels intellectually honest, and I respect that. Dev put his heart and mind into the game, and it feels genuine. Exited to see if he will do anything with Ebb in the coming years.

It just surprised me is all, addressing contemporary topics without trying to subvert anything for once.

>>3938087
Good games are rarely for everyone and that's alright. "You can please some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can't please all of the people all of the time".

>Both games really want to cast and have Harry but they just can't sell it. I don't feel like both characters are justified in trying to copy Harry,
I didn't get that sense from Ebb. The story is too upbeat, the humor is too D&D focused. Ragn is an inexperienced nerd that can't seem to make friends. Harry is a burnt up detective that pushed himself into a drunken breakdown. Ragn has no accomplishments to his name. Harry has plenty but also a bad reputation. Harry is a character that forgot himself. Ragn is a blank slate.
>>
>>3954565
I wouldn't call Ragn a blank slate, there are parts of his personality you can't change. His family trauma, his attraction to big women or his love in Urth (i saw some people being angry they couldn't call him out for his genocide) are deeply engrained and you can't just go against them

Spector only amplified what was already there, Garriot always wanted simulationist bullshit but was too incompetent to make it himself which is why he had to rely on people like Neurath and Spector to get it done, see how Ultima progressively shifted focus after V, see how Ultima Underworld and Ultima Online came at the tail end of the series' life, see how Garriot himself attempted a comeback in the industry with Shroud of the Avatar.
>I think if you psychoanalyze the guy he found success too early.
Garriot already found success with Akalabeth, which is what allowed him to even make Ultima to begin with, outside of that he's just a narcissist fraud like the vast majority of people with a lot of money, which is also not at all rare in the videogame industry and doesn't really need any "psychoanalysis" since it's rather blatant and shameless behaviour, see all the other has-beens like Inafune or Sakaguchi that just like Garriot love to dub themselves "father of/creator of" despite their actual contributions being questionable.

I want something that is kind of the RPG equivalent of being Joseph Joestar from Part 2 all the way until his older years, basically a very long spanning RPG through which you age and get descendants that you battle alongside with.
Now my wish was actually 80% granted in the god tier Dragon Quest V I played recently, one of the most beautiful games I've played in my life but I want something I guess more with the themes of JoJo too and the important factor of you becoming like a very old grandfather figure, with it reflecting in your stats too.

I'll write some other more unique concept later though this is just something I wanted to share, maybe someone knows something like it apart from DQ V.
