I agree that it is far more RPG than Action, that's why I listed it as good example. The point is, even with that it's a decent shooter game when you play it with casul classes like navy and marine.

Craziest thing about the game is it fools you into thinking it has a decent budget because of coherent art style with soft lighting. Only to play it and realize it's Eurojank of the highest order precisely because it tries to do so much with a shoestring budget.
>>
>>3854193
I did play it back when it came out, I even followed its Kickstarter. It deserved better than what it got, what a cool universe and aesthetic it presented.

Any games that let you be a coward?
I feel like massive pussies are under represented and would love to explore that mindset.
I'll take any suggestions.
>>
>>3855882
Gothic games basically make you act like one - running away from enemies that are much stronger than you even on critical story paths. It doesn't entirely let go of that mentality even in lategame - you still have to pick fights accurately or risk getting swarmed and butchered in seconds. NOTR expansion is all about that feeling of being forced to face things above your standing.

Nox's Mage playthrough is all about being a coward - picking fights, making ambushes, frantically running around trying to shake-off enemies to pull off that one fireball cast and planning escape routes to mana stones in case things do go bad.

>>3855882
TES with some combination of sneak, illusion, and conjuration
>>
>>3855891
NOTR absolutely. For the fact alone that due to the mechanics of melee every melee fight with something skilled in it is potentially dangerous troughout the game even in 1v1 and most situations are 1v2 at least or some duels where your opponent just crits you dead on a lucky hit right away.

I got to chapter 4 in reborn but honestly I really fucking hate the gameplay. Too linear, slow, cheesy in which you just aim to throw as much of your units to fucking kill the boss ASAP, no real sense of progression because class skills are locked to classes and you don't really get any neat classes.

Is the gameplay any better in SNES or PSP? I had a long break before finishing off Chapter 3 so I don't mind replaying the game again but I want something a lot faster and snappier and jesus fuck I'm getting annoyed at Reborn level cap and holy shit I have to wait for every unit to move and playing the waiting game to come to me is so fucking boring.

How do the recruiting skills work in One vision mod?
So if i get a Beast tamer, i can train the skills to recruit beasts and dragons. If i change the class, can he learn the other recruiting skills? Can i put pretty much all of them to one character?

you could go look for the SNES version since that and the ps1 are the same. might have better luck that way

I want to like TO but I'm not really a fan of any of the game systems they have in play for any version. The closest one that resonates with me is LUCT but I dislike the fact that levels are tied to the entire class, not units, and level scaling makes it show no mercy towards your recently level 1 classchanged heroes

The modern remake.

Everyone says this game is piss easy on the default difficulty. What are the best Draconian quests to activate before I start the game. I'm torn between super strong enemies and reduced exp from easy fights. I'm usually not a fan of level caps in JRPGs but I'd rather go with that if the stronger enemies mode is too grindy or punishingly difficult, especially in the later stages of the game. Everything I read online about this seems to suggest that DQ11 is a game that's either too easy or too hard depending on the setting you choose at the start of the game.

What say you, /vrpg/? What's the best way to play this game for a balanced experience?

I'm not saying you can't ever be fucked by RNG, I'm saying a little bit of RNG can be fun in some games. DQXI is very forgiving and frankly I didn't have any trouble with the game with only stronger monsters on. I did not grind. A few bosses I had to retry a couple times but I don't mind that. It all felt appropriately challenging. I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume this is just a difference of taste but a lot of times people have these complaints and you learn they never tried changing their equipment or skill sets to try and specifically counter a boss and they never use consumables, or defend, or use buffs/debuffs etc.

I will say though that the scorpion did get nerfed for XI S and it was more bullshit in the original release.

Let's discuss games in the "scrollslike" subgenre; basically games that have the design philosophy of 3D Elder Scrolls/3D Fallout/Gothic, but that are not necessarily in those series. Examples include:
>Two Worlds 1-2
>Elex
>Outward
>Gedonia
>Tainted Grail: Fall of Avalon
Which "scrollslike" games are your favorite? Which upcoming games in the genre are you looking forward to? Can we come up with a name for this subgenre that doesn't sound as gay as "scrollslike?"

I've seen this mentioned but nobody talks about it, its a pretty impressive indie game thats worth playing if you like Morrowind
Its got a wack-ass (but comprehensible) setting, tons of unique locations, dozens of side quests that are ALL interesting

However, the game doesn't have the same mechanical depth as most RPGs. The combat sucks, the soundtrack gets repitive, and (some) of the writing is subject to tranny-ism (but not enough to make the game bad)

I put about 20hrs into it, and theres still a lot I haven't done. Its pretty good, very good writing. Worth playing. I'm excited for their next game, Entropy.
>>
>>3843694
I just finished tainted grail, and I can't think of any game more deserving of being called scrolls-like, since it feels like a skyrim mod.
Honestly if you told me the enderal guys had made another overhaul for skyrim and gotten a licence to sell it as a separate game from bethesda I'd have believed it, they're THAT similar.
It isn't a bad game by any means, but honestly I was expecting a lot more. It feels very shallow and unfinished on pretty much every level, bargain bin material through and through.

this is literally nothing like morrowind.
