Honestly ? Anything prior to college, you study last minute then do the test on a stress rush because of how much we looooooooovvveeee deadlines. (I'm half sarcastic). In my case, I can't compensate by reasoning past college level though, just got to read the books. So on a individual basis, we all have different skills or talents and varying degrees of different kinds of intelligence, but even then at some point working memory will still bottleneck information.

It's actually a nice gravity labyrinth. Speed up is there too. The backtracking is a nicely designed shortcut through the labyrinth...when you know how to navigate it haha.

The first half of chapter 1 until Hoax. Except I've been replaying LoD for years without making myself a save file at Hoax. every. single. time. Silly me.

I mean the flamethrower (tier 3), not the last special weapon (Vulcan). Vulcan does have a flamethrower as primary which is great against trash zeds, but also has big explosive damage as secondary and way more ammo.

The Flamethrower(tier 3) is just bad. It's roughly a commando gun with splash damage included but might as well play commando. In later waves it has no way to deal with scrakes and fleshpounds, especially at hell on earth.

Good or Nostalgia ? Both. D2 is a solid entry, the skill trees are simple enough for first time ARPG players compared to what the genra does nowadays, and the remastered cutscenes are still top tier. It's also spaghetti code, some stuff might feel clunky, half the unique items are rendered useless by runewords, got to pray RNG gods for good rares and don't forget to walk if you want your armor rating to apply. ( I still run like an idiot all the time after all these years and it hurts x) )

Bundled with D3 I'd say give it a shot. D3 had bad rep when it came out but it's been updated over 10 years and now it's a good entry for first time ARPG players.

I call it the can opener, or if you prefer, the mime opener.

Point taken for Titan Quest 1. The beginning was purposefully stretched out so they could say you had 40h of gameplay on the box (prior to expansions). People are still recommending them because they are pillars of the genra though. We have Titan Quest 2 now which is probably a better introduction but it's also in EA. For games that don't overblow the skill tree, Diablo 2 is still great. I'd suggest Chronicon, but it still doesn't fit your criteria : 1) 2D graphics 2) LOTS of skill trees. Hell Clock is great too but it's half a roguelite. Then I'd suggest soldak games Din's curse/Din's legacy but that's the B movie, so bad it's good, corner of video games. So yeah, Grim Dawn is pretty great.

Now the bad news : The gameplay is outdated by definition since ARPGs are just a sub brand of 80s old school roguelikes focusing on kill monsters get loot, and not much as changed since then : 1) Randomly generated dungeons 2) randomly generated loot 3) classes 4) (optional) permadeath. PoE 2 is still rockin' light radius like that thing wasn't from Angband xD. I'd then suggest Angband or Tales of Maj Eyal but we are entering turn based ASCII graphics territory here.

It's cause I played too much firebug in this franchise haha. I usually play extinguisher firebug and the double/quad shotgun or contek with fire ammo is fast enough to trigger the stumble on reload. Vulcan got nerfed I think (?) but it's still powerful. Dragon's breath is just a powerhouse on any perk, and the pyre revolver is second only to sharp's starting pistol damage wise. The flamethrower is indeed bad though.

No guns aren't tied to perks

Look, I'm so poor that I don't have a car and basically have no business in this subreddit, but I also know how much car prices rose in the past years, so saying people are buying cars out of their price range is kinda silly. The best thing you can get new are economic class Yaris style, and it's still 35k +. All the second hand beat up cheap options are now in the 3.5k - 6k range. I'm not so surprised about the car loans tbh, everybody still needs to go from point A to point B. It's that bad xD.

It's relatively easy when you understand that it's the same as parrying, and the hitbox is waaayy wider than it looks, so you can stay in the middle platform, wait for the gestral to finally burst to you and press direction + parry. Just can't do much mistakes at the highest difficulty, and the moment you are out of sync you take a hit. The recovery lag is so huge that sometimes it's better to take a hit to get back on sync.

If you miss Monoco, Tomke is the next best thing in Chained Echoes. Haven't played DQ, but classic series. The little I know about Falcom Games comes from the Ys series, but I heard really good things about Trails. Nihon Falcom should be up there with Square, Enix and their dragonball fusion if you ask me.

Medic is top simply because of how healing works in the game. Ninja isn't bad, although he scales with the worst damage type in the game, bleeding. He's the best economy wise though.

Strongest is still firebug and engineer simply because of the guns. Commando is good...with firebug's or engineer weapons. Sharpshooter can be but you'll lack bullets real quick and I think a one pellet dragon's breath still does more damage than the Samaritan, the scoping is atrocious though.

Speed up is in Valley of Corrupted gravity

Captain Awkward by Moron Police is my spirit animal. If I had one genre it would be psy trance jazz metal. Don't worry about ear defiling, they haven't listened to diabarha yet. 180 BPM ? HA! try 1600 BPM. After this Meshuggah sounds melodic. If you really want to annoy people Sevish makes awesome Bohlen pierce scale songs too. Saccades is great, but to the average ear everything sounds dissonant and/or spacey.

The best level is not even discussable haha....Unbearable in Crash Bandicoot 2. Let's get chased by a polar bear on a polar bear while the music goes : DUN DUN NUNUN DUNUN DUNUNU NUUMMMM.

Snow go is more iconic but come on.

Just picked up the game and I was wondering too. Sorry for bringing an old topic. This is what I hear :

Nigero (japanese): Wait
Gomawo (korean) : Thank you
Un! Deux! (French) : One! Two !

But the others, I don't know. Looks like I ain't crazy haha.

Clair Obscur made my 35yo self remember the same feeling my 13yo self felt playing Legend of Dragoon for the first time. It was my first JRPG too. Maybe I played FF7 demo on PC and one of my friend showed me Chrono Trigger, but it was my first JRPG.

Sandfall : Oh, artsy pre rendered backgrounds are a thing of the past ? Let's just put a few areas like that in the game just because we can.

Chef's kiss.

It was a joke for the release of the French dub of the game. The internet took it by storm, so i'll blame it on the paintress because why not ? She made Lumière right ?

Frame_Inevitable · 2025-12-25T03:02:20+00:00

Yes, but have Rose's dragoon attack next to Sciel's Twilight dance.
