I wanna be a space wizard and do cool shit, and NO I WILL NOT WATCH A 30MIN VIDEO THAT TALKS ABOUT SPREDSHEETS INSTEAD OF SHOWING ACTUAL COOL SHIT ON SCREEN.This game is great but what is it with the build autism going on with it, if you have a spreadsheet show a video first with gameplay explaining how the ability rotations work so you can get an idea of how the build plays, don't start with the sheet for the LOVE OF GOD!
>>3939274Yeah, particularly with priest abilities (i.e. Argenta) is probably the practically speaking strongest possible build, but if you want to stack damage numbers to a pointlessly high degree, nothing touches executioner psyker.
>>3939161https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-NmV355VFA
>>3939217No. Force swords are better at every point in the game. There are no other melee weapons which can do more damage on the pyro-executioner Heinrix build due to how warp damage applies debuffs / dots.
>>3940809Also Veil degradation management is the primary limiting factor for him, and you have to use force swords for that because Cass can't stabilize it when it isn't her turn. If you're using sacrificial dagger for infinite AP, no one else is acting until his turn is over.
>>3940809>>3940811Would be true if he could use malpian shroud, jutnsince he can't, his DPS is higher wirh rock saws.
What would a hybrid of WRPGs (circa 1995-2005) and JRPGs (also circa 1995-2005) look like?
>>3936995Metal Max series?and the MMO FF game was basically copying western MMOs.
>>3939052wow-style mmos are not "wrpgs"
>>3936995Lisa the Painful
>>3936995SaGa
>>39369951999 Septerra Core and SilverAfter the release and success of FFVII there was a short time when white devil wanted to try his skill in making japanese cartoon games.
>crpg>forced tabletop emulation>required consumable food / camping supplies to travel>kingdom management sub-mechanicStop doing this.
>OP bumps his dead thread from page ten
>>3937792>trash fightsstop doing this>trash fights and vancian magicinto the trash it goes
>>3937792His is like trying to talk sense on fuckers that insist random hex crawls are as good as handcrafted maps. Don't waste your time.
>>3937792What if instead, you have say 6 bullshit pseudo content fluff mechanics like food gathering, or making consumables etc. but you have 5 extra party members you can leave behind in Camp to do those jobs. Thus the player only has to choose one task they like, or hate the least, that they have to do in order to keep progressing.And if they opt out entirely they get permanent stat penalties and a gay furry romance dialog tree with misleading/mislabeled nodes is forced upon them.

>the GOAT JRPG>was made by AmericansHow did they do it?
>>3940640>the contrapoint to it.
>>3938342One of the worst games I've ever tried playing and proof that Americans in the '90s basically couldn't make shit.
>>3940800Except for tons of amazing PC games that came out in the 90s. Americans made great games, including Secret of Evermore.
>>3940360>>3940655>>3940800Weebs will never be able to handle that Americans invented, innovated, and perfected RPGs.
>>3940929i'm not a weeb, why are you quoting me.
Just picked up the Might & Magic series after playing through the old Bradley Wizardry games,they seem a little more "chaotic" combat seems to be random But I really dig these 80s sprites & MIDI soundfont really nice ambiance and amazing atmosphere,is it a dungeon crawlers or prototype RPG like daggerfall or morrowind?
Is 9 the one where you win by pulling a lever
>>3874720If a modern female character had a face like that now. People would scream its woke tyranny slop
>>3939542Bullshit.
>dispels youhow do you react without sounding mad?
>>3940906I don't use buffs *dragonbreaths*
The genre has only gone downhill since the Famicom era. Change my mind.
>>3940001Are you trying to impersonate and troll me specifically?>>3940263There are tons of hybrid RPGs on Famicom as well, including sports, chess like, side scrolling action games and more
>>3940369I know, what I am saying is that they branched out even farther as the generations progressed. What could be considered an jrpg, they just so multifaceted. People on this board have bitched at me and said rocket slime isn't a Jrpg when in fact it is.
>>3940001what about dq12 ?
>>3940369I don't know what it is, but I love these games look when they're this small. Something about the pixels look slightly less pleasing on my tv.
>>3940826With integer scaling it'll always look this good
Which rpg had the best final battle sequence?
>>3940707Hollywood Jews don't know anything about combat.
>>3940528>tfw you complete the main quest at too high a levelI know that feel, anon.The daedra are levelled, but the NPCs aren't. The means the Battle of Bruma can be brutal at high levels.
>>3940707you mean the army that pulled their spears back because they were blinded by Anorian light.
>>3940523Dragon Age Origins
>>3940707They usual cope is that they were blinded, because apparently not seeing shit changes the fact the Rohan retards are charging 2 meter long pike holding, 6ft tall athletically built uruks in plate armor
>Please read the accompanying ten books of lore before playing the game.Uh... how about no. See, this is why Wizardry is still around today and Ultima is a barely playable relic.
>>3937839>Ultima 4 is still hailed as one of the all time greatest games ever.um, no it isn't, educate yourself sweetyhttps://www.filfre.net/2014/07/ultima-iv/
>>3937841Retarded, overly reductive argument.>>3937992I don't give a shit what some random geriatric says.
>>39377654 sucked. Shit didn’t turn around until 5. Now 5 was some dope shit. 6 sucked. The rest I very much enjoyed. I even dug the final one. Jesus, the box was like 3’ tall
>>3937765the lorebook that comes with this game is 5 pages long. its a 10 minute read even for a slow reader.its not Ultimas fault you're a retard
>>3937765The only truth remotely related to your post is needing to know what reagents for what spells but you are probably mostly going to use 5 or so spells regularly. It isn't that bad.U5 is the best one though. Maybe the best game ever made.
Romance this one, romance that one, secret romance that other one. O.m.g. Kill me now.Can we please make a list of vrpg companions that agree to give you casual sex? I only remember encountering pic related : Wenduag from Pathfinder Wrath of the righteous — and you bet your sweet ass that I accepted hehehe.Surely there are others out there.
>>3937524>Her "redemption through romance" is the best one out of the lot, because she doesn't immediately transform into a different person with an alignment shift, and actually acknowledges it will take a long time for her to actually change.But enough about Cam Cam
>>3936912Romancing her is pretty damn good though. Once you tear down all the barriers she becomes the most honest among women. She challenges her former master, her own fears, for the commander and stands her ground with the utmost loyalty. Plus romancing her gives a cheat level bonus and a scene on which she almost breaks when she believes the commander dead. It´s pretty good.
>>3936912Jack in ME2 will fuck you, no strings attached but it locks you out of her romance.Also, every companion in CoC.Also, what is the best mythic path to "redeem" Wendu on? I want to give her a try.
>>3940860By putting your sword deep across her chest
>>3937008You mean you can have sex with that spider girl repeatedly?
Any recommendations for a decent free-roam/open-world FF-esque title?Having recently replayed the ever-greats 7 & 8, for the god-knows time, I'm finding myself looking for something of this quality with a more open world. The less railroading the better. Last couple of games to scratch that itch were Crystal Project and Cassette Beasts, not mandatory but ATB based-combat would be nice.
>>3940448>still not on PC>old version delisted
Have you played xenoblade 1? I find that its quite similar to FF12 - it works even better as a free roaming game even, for several reasons. You lose out on the classic magic system and gambit system but instead you get compelling melee combat, tanking and combos between characters that feel like an evolution of dual/triple techs from chrono trigger I think the monado is the coolest sword in gaming since the gunblade. I am happy that I can now wvvedash with both blades in project m.
>>3940728the way you can have a psychic vision of receiving a quest when you pick up a quest item is a wonderful feature in xenoblade 1- the next 3 xenoblades do not do this ( I think? I did not get far in XB2 or XB3). Idk why an MMO has not done this yet , 93% of video games will not let you touch the quest item until you are already on the quest.Also you get to jump.
>>3939978you're looking for Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII>>3940728xenoblade 1 does not have compelling combat actuallyit's really fucking boring
>>3940780I think having positional modifiers and active abilities for melee characters would have greatly benefited ff12. Ridiculous that 12 is the only game with dragoons that don't jump (ulahan lol ) .
What kinds of RPG portraits do you like to use in your playthroughs? I recently got back into digital art because I wanted to do portraits for all my OCs and perhaps another run of all infinity engine games from start to finish with the same party. I am torn on which artstyle to go for though, with digital art there are so many options..picrel is some lineart work in progress
Hand-made art.But I have to admit that when Bing/Dalle3 landed and everyone kept slopping with it, I ended up with a few decently looking female elf pics I used as portraits.
>>3935355Dragonlance portraits for everything
>>3937292Man of taste, anon
Tim Gayn's ludokino masterpiece
>>3923532>>3924059Have you finished your runs, anons?
>>3939484Haven't had much time to game. Just hit lvl8. Dicking around with the temples and helping them fuck each other over.
>>3939484second anon here, nah I dropped it pretty much right before heading of to NulbI was mostly interested in seeing what people were doing with Hommlet and Moathouse/Dungeon in terms of quests and NPC interactions to prepare for running T1 The Village of Hommlet module at a table, and I have no interest in running the entire Temple of Elemental Evil campaign.The game didn't hook me, the quests and encounters seemed like bare minimal effort, I have a somewhat of a dislike for 3e, and plainly speaking I just found it underbaked even with the mods.I can see several reasons why anons might like it, but I don't
while i enjoy 3.5 ruleset, man, after playing kingmaker/wotr, pathfinder 1e stuff is more whole. yeah, I know that pathfinder is basically 3.75 edition. Things that gripes to no end. >Fighter has access to alot of feats that available to everyone, as far i know, fighter has only weapon specialization/greater weapon focus/greater weapon specialization. while in pathfinder 1e, fighter has weapon training which not only functions as focus/specialization but lets you do cool things like add weapon training to initiative, add weapon training to reflex saves etc. armor training, which makes heavy armor have lesser armor penalty and greater max dex bonus, so while everyone has issues wearing armor, to seasoned fighter, wearing armor is like wearing t-shirt. >Dragon Disciple (i know its still not implemented in temple+). yeah, you sorcerer? how about we give you extra strength, and intelligence, i guess. also have dragon wings and breath attack, while in pathfinder it allows you to turn into freaking dragon so PrC makes you legit dragon-lite being. >Duelist. you want to be agile warrior? no armor for you. in Pathfinder duelist/aldori swordlord/aldor defender can at least still wear light armor and retain all cool ac bonuses you get from special features. yes i know that its quite moot point as AC can be solved by using magic ring/amulets/bracelets/spells, but still, you must wear t-shirt only, without actually being monk/wizard. I guess 3.5 was built up with idea that if you're martial, you'll multiclass into multiple classes, so idea that each class cool capstone feature is great.
>>3940479>you want to be agile warrior? no armor for youelven chains exist & provide the same AC for a high DEX character as a full plate armor to a low DEX character
Not one good rpg or similar game with good mounted combat, knighthood, etc. KCD tried but failed
>>3938343Pathfinder WOTR
>>3938343Mount and Blade: Warband
>>3938343Horses are really difficult to animate properly. That's the main reason.
>>3938343Final fantasy tactics had mounted combat. It was all right.
>>3938557The first ever animation was a guy on a horse so shut the fuck up with your lame excuse.
>one of your party members is a cool old guy who went on the same journey beforeWhat are some games? and no, I don't mean just any kind of older party member who's been on an adventure or two. Specifically ones who've done something identical or very close to the current protag's journey. Likely visited the same places etc.Right now I can only think of Galuf, Auron, and Kratos Mega bonus points: he doesn't die
>>3937437>Galuf, Auron, and KratosAnd Lulu, Yuna's pilgrimage wasn't her first time being a guardian.
>>3937477Just use your janny powers to delete it, faggot.
>>3937754Oh yes, the great elder Lulu at age 22. Shut up.
>Game has an OLD man that the part gives crap about his age>He's like 35
Sure is a lot of GERIATRIC cope here
