No, of course not, and you would be foolish to think otherwise.

Bump it up to at least Hard so Mungo King spawns and then you'll understand. He's got a way more powerful mastery board than he did during the story mission.

Why didn't you just choose to kill the remaining enemies?
>>
>>2099262
Alisa by herself can't reach one of the monkeys on a balcony - there aren't any stairs and it's way too far for jump attacks to land. Picking 'finishing off remaining enemies' without any bosses left essentially softlocks the mission in that specific scenario. Maybe grenades could be used, but I doubt even three of those can get a kill at cruel/challenge/high risk.

It's not more difficult than your average turn based. You get the characters one by one and you have a lot of time to experiment. The very complex shit is when you up the difficult level to very hard fuck my shit up hexing must die.
I bought the game because, of course, it has a pretty girl on the cover and more pretty girls inside. I had to check a couple of time internet because i didn't get some masteries, sure, but it's not something this strange.
>actually know what the fuck is going on

>>
>>2104322
It works pretty well on Kylie and Ray, and decently on Alisa. I've never tried it on Heixing or Giselle. The effects are hard to comprehend just by reading the masteries because so much of it looks like conditional nonsense, but in practice a build like that ends up evasive as fuck with insane accuracy and speed, and pretty good damage and HP. With postgame masteries they also spam buffs on themselves like nobody's business.

Okay, first playthrough done, have a meme.
The last mission took 2 tries. On the first one I only had Misty and Heixing left against the tankiest destron and they weren't gonna even scratch him, so I cheesed him by running away in circles until he ran out of fuel. On the second try I killed them fairly. 60V is much easier.

the tankiest destron is such a nigger lol. Idek what the intended strat is vs him since even with 5x armor break he still takes single digit damage from ranger heixing with an anti-robot setup.

Which character in the game would be the most likely to actually play Troubleshooter?
>>
>>2108419
Misty, but that's too easy. Other than her...Heixing I guess.
>>
Anyone else play other games, read the writing, and wonder how the hell Troubleshooter is the poster child for bad writing? Yes, Troubleshooter has its issues, but so many games are so much worse, and few are actually better.
>>
>>2108804
Who said Troubleshooter has bad writing?
I could understand thinking the prose is bad because it's an awkward translation, so sometimes the sentences sound weird. But the plot and characterization is pretty good I think.

I appreciated how most of the characters felt more "realistic" than your typical anime-style game. Most of the time each character has an assigned trope, a backstory if they're lucky, and that's their character. Especially in strategy games with a big roster. Fire Emblem is the worst for this.
In Troubleshooter they felt more like real people to me. Especially the characters from Alley. Irene is probably the silliest, and if she's all the way on that end of the spectrum then that shows how down-to-earth the characters are overall.
>>
>>2108804
The main issue with Troubleshooter's writing is that the translation is noticeably subpar. Some people wildly exaggerate how bad it is, especially since most of the really bad lines have been fixed ages ago, but it's still not great by any measure. Aside from that, I'd say the story itself is decidedly above-average for a video game. Not zOMG TEH BEST but quite good nonetheless. Despite being an entirely unrealistic setting it feels grounded in-context, and it has just enough complexity to give it some appeal beyond the immediate face value. Maybe it could do with fewer flashbacks and side-stories, but at the same time those do add some extra depth and flavor to the setting in a way you wouldn't get from a purely linear single-perspective story.
>>
>>2108994
>Some people wildly exaggerate how bad it is, especially since most of the really bad lines have been fixed ages ago, but it's still not great by any measure
you can see this a lot especially around the Joel flashback parts. I cant remember what cutscene it was in particular but I could tell that the original text was clearly attempting to phrase things in several ways but was directly translated in a way where characters just kept repeating themselves.

The writing is fine. That mega faggot on RPGCodex who wrote that it's "badly written" was just doing so to keep his credentials intact on a site that notoriously hates anything anime related and dismisses all games containing anything resembling it out of hand, no matter how good the actual gameplay and content is. So the guy writing the review just dismisses all the aesthetic and storytelling elements because the gameplay is so awesome he still wants to play it and get other people on that godforsaken site to play it, so he hyper focuses on it in his review. The game is actually pretty damn good writing wise, it explores its themes and sets up its characters and world quite well.

Every single major protagonist is dealing with abandonment in some form and I felt the game did a good job differentiating in how each one handled it. And Pascal was the perfect final villain for the game, as the world had utterly abandoned him altogether and his response was to become an absolute monster that betrayed everything he stood for, which contrasted him quite nicely with the heroes who handled the same rejection in better ways. Except Albus, of course, who will one day cause Ragnarok.
>>
>>2108804
honestly anything even tangentially anime related gets religiously shat on by faggots that want to seem mature and cultured. The best example of this is how hard disco elysium gets sucked off despite having similar overall level of quality to an eastern VN.

I'm glad someone else pointed this out, although I think doesn't refer to just one person. It refers to Sharky, and Albus, and Valhalla in a metaphorical way. It's a good line, it says something about both the speaker and the target, is relevant to the game's themes, and gives nuance to the game's conflicts. One of many examples of why I think this game's writing is very underrated.

He's comparing Albus to himself; his statement applies to both of them equally.

Sharky:
>leader of the spoonists
>well respected figurehead among his kind who supports those who've been abandoned by everyone else
>was planted into the role by Edward and replaced the original Sharky
>falls to Carter who in turn takes over his mask and replaces him

Albus:
>leader of [Your Company]
>well respected Troublehooter hailed as a hero after the subjugation of White Tiger
>deliberately and almost exclusively takes on dangerous cases that accelerate his climb through the ranks in order to gain access to government files about the catastrophe from 10 years ago
>hides a cold and calculating personality beneath his nice guy mask

It's both the neon green color + her mouth is too wide with the lipstick. It makes it look like she applied it wrong and she's the Joker or something.

Noticed her fringe's brown, makes me think they originally planned her to have dyed her hair blonde. No clue why they went the wig thing, it's a pretty odd design choice.

>>2112523

>>2112523
It wouldn't make sense for her to dye her hair then un-dye it at home and re-dye it the next day.
They should just have the new casual outfit turn into this one but without the brown fringe. They both look good, it's the new uniformed look that's a problem.
If they don't match that's even better, it'd exaggerate how she's becoming a different person when she puts on her "armor".

Something akin to Dishonored or Thief, where you play as an assassin or criminal. Make it so civilians can call for the police and troubleshooters to hunt you down if you get seen attacking someone.

It works on everybody but you don't have the particularly interesting synergies for a full board until the end of base game and the DLC. Main niceties:
>tons of Vigor and recovery for it, Heixing and Giselle love this
>Professionalism/Vocation is an absurd amount of Speed
>buffs last forever and mental debuff immunity
>powerful effects on missing which works great with reaction attacks like -AT and buff roulette, Kylie gets it for free with Reactive Matrix, Giselle and Heixing lessen the sting of missing with their reaction attacks that cost AT and even Alisa sees some benefit with Anger Strike/Forestallment
>ignores a lot of Block/Dodge with Sharp Spirit and you also ignore a large portion of Block's damage resistance anyway with Ebullient
>Vocation + Green Old Age is a potent buff to all your skills damage
>The Will Beyond Extreme Will for dealing with reaction attack spam
>one person can run the Commander's Spirit buff stuff, or Renowned Commander
>actually find the +Overcharge stuff very restrictive with the rest of the board, but 50% damage reduction in Overcharge is one of the stronger effects, Alisa can do great things with it
Here's a couple builds, these ones I think I could figure out working outside of Limit Break, and my Ray too since it just uses Vocation, but my Alisa is engineered within an inch of her life even with LB.
>>
>>2116979
Some other fun things:
>That Giselle killed the DLC2 mission with just her and one other person before my teammates even arrived, normally Vigor would be a problem for that but the board sustains her by itself
>That Heixing is great with an Anne White Mage backpack fueling his Impulse Fields and giving him more turns, the entire point is he gets his turn back off the reaction attacks which lets him spam Fixed Stance Sweeping Fire off of Re Mop-Up, very fun build

ESP builds are strong on nearly everybody. I'd carve out some caveats for Wind Albus outside of Limit Break, and I haven't played around with Ice Leton much. I've made strong and fun builds for everybody else.
>no Tough Spirit
Panic/Confusion are mental debuffs, right? Diligent Worker's immunity to those covers that. I find those effects to rarely be a problem even without it, situationally relevant for sure but I'm always hungry for fun synergies and I really like Bounding Stride too.
>>
>>2118200
Confusion's not classified as a mental debuff, but almost no enemies inflict it so it doesn't matter. The main reason to run Tough Spirit or mental immunity is so you don't get Surprised/Contraction'd by Mungos.

If you guys could pick one ESP type to have in real life, what would it be? I would probably pick water since it seems the most versatile and immediately useful.
>>
>>2123589
>water
>all sorts of poison fart buffs
I'd pick Fire since it seems to be the most useful in everyday life without immediately giving you away as an esper freak (or causing terminal blood cancer).
Makes you virtually immortal too.
>>
>>2123589
Definitely Earth.
>>
>>2123589
I'd probably go for Water as well
I think in general the more defensive ESP types would be the best to have. Being able to clear debuffs in real life would be sick.
>>
>>2123589

On the other hand, Fire would be incredibly useful

You can use as many ESP suppressants as you want in your school, But it wont stop a determined Spirit user from creating a black hole in the middle of the cafeteria.

I don't think kids have the training to use Spirit yet, especially not to such a crazy degree. Even adult VHPD Suppressors can't use Spirit.

What's that?
>>
>>2127767
Divegrass AKA football is something that's been going on for almost 15 years on 4chan where people make teams of AI players that compete against each other. The main competition has teams based on board culture (which /vst/ has one), but there are invitationals where people make teams about whatever they want. Some anon made a really neat Troubleshooter team which is in that webm playing against a Kingdom Hearts team.
>>
>>2127603
>>2127949
I knew about divegrass, but not that there's a /vst/ league let alone a Troubleshooter team. It even uses the in-game models, that's nice.
When do they play?
>>
>>2127954
It's not a /vst/ league, it looks like the team has only been used for the Divegrass Before Christmas invitationals which are every December according to their wiki page https://implyingrigged.info/wiki//troubleshooter/

>Any reason why I wouldn't like this?
It's much more story- and character-based than similar games, with lots of cutscenes and flashbacks and stuff like that. Plus it's super linear. You can always go back and replay missions as much as you want, and some missions have alternate paths, but the main narrative is 100% on-rails. The start of the game is also arguably the worst part of the game, since the story takes a while to get going, lots of mechanics don't open up until later, and you've got a tiny squad so you get lots of missions with shitty generic police units filling out your team, which just isn't much fun IMO.

If none of that is a dealbreaker for you it's definitely worth playing.

Some of that stuff does seem like it would annoy me but if the rest of the game is fun I can put up with it. I'll check it out, then. Thanks for the response anon
>>
>>2130628
If it gets on your nerves you can always just switch difficulty down and trivially shitstomp missions until you've got the first five or six characters. I also recommend looking into the settings and switching off various notifications and confirmations in combat. Streamlines the experience a lot.

I boughted the game and I've been enjoying it so far but you all were right about it having a slow start. It seems like every time Irene is about to join the party, she just kinda leaves.
I don't mind the generic police units, it's nice to have some consistent ranged damage when most of the name units are melee or rely on abilities for range and I don't feel bad about sacrificing them. Also they look cool and it's fun to do what >>2131422 says and play like it's a tacticool swat team instead of capeshit but korean.
>>
>>2133920
You get access to more than just cops with guns. You also get riot shield cops, and Payday 2 Cloakers. Plus a named police unit that helps in a fair amount of missions.
>>
>>2133920
eventually you get the only female NPC in the game as swat members. They suck ass though because their death screams are too erotic so you start suiciding them into enemies to hear it

Midgame VHPD are such chads. Once the Suppressors promote to Rangers they get Cover Move which you'd never notice without reading their board since they lack Base Defence, but if you have them conceal against cover it works. It's extremely cheesy on the sniper defence training map because pretty much everyone except the Strikers and Guardians will try to range them and fail.
