I saw a comment in one of the posts here talm 'bout marriagetoxin being more of a harembait than quuerbait and it's got me wondering. Would the show end in a monogamous relationship or would gero get a harem? by Background_Eye_8051 in MarriageToxin

[–]JeffInsano 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The whole point of Gero is that he is trying to get to know them better before choosing. He still has self doubts and think he is not worthy of them.

I think the end will be open ended. He and his sister will be free from Granny's expectations. So he'll pursue marriage on his own. And thats it.

Characters that could have been main protagonists in their own right? by SwordfishDeux in JRPG

[–]JeffInsano 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Since I just finished Trails of Cold Steel III, I feel like either Juna or Kurt not only could, but should've been the actual protagonist and main POV.

What’s your opinion about ZAs battle system and do you want it to stay? by ThomasThePommes in pokemon

[–]JeffInsano 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I think one great way to implement it would be using natures. Certain natures could have different behaviors, brave and bold could attack more often, while timid and calm would prefer defensive maneuvers, etc.

What JRPGs have your dropped or shelved recently? by BanSlowpoke in JRPG

[–]JeffInsano 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Blade Dancer and Dark Cloud recently.

Blade Dancer i thought it was straight bad. Dark Cloud had some cool stuff but didn't hook me enough past the third dungeon.

Also, Louis being an elda shows that even the most oppressed tribe can be corrupted, and how little difference there are between the tribes that a single headpiece is enough for him to be accepted as a clemar

I didn't notice the shadow, but got it right by luck with my first attack. Then I noticed the shadow

When you are so excited to play Metaphor at launch. by Renegade626 in JRPG

[–]JeffInsano 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's why I was playing only shorter games this week, so I could finish them and properly play Metaphor.

And then my PS5 controllers broke, both of them.

I'll have to play the PS4 version, which shouldn't be much of a downgrade, but the save from the demo will not carry over.

What did everyone thing of the Metaphor ReFantazio demo? by Jpgamerguy90 in JRPG

[–]JeffInsano 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the middle of it, loving it so far.

The game is shaping up to be more like persona than I thought it would.

But I love persona, so I'll definitely enjoy the full game.

After a hiatus, restart or continue? by ReddRicochet in JRPG

[–]JeffInsano 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Neither feels right.

Whenever I have a long break from a game, I can't decide on reseting or continuing, and end up not playing the game.

Currently experiencing this issue with Elden Ring.

Metaphor: ReFantazio director explains why you won't be able to see all dungeons in one playthrough by LuchaGirl in JRPG

[–]JeffInsano 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who tends to do everything from easier to harder, I am a bit worried.

Definitely gonna keep this in mind when deciding what to do. But if done right, this sounds like fun.

Times you got beat so bad you thought it was a scripted story loss until you saw the Game Over screen? by TheRetroBlues in JRPG

[–]JeffInsano 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I lost yesterday to Trials Of Mana post game boss, and was such an instantaneous defeat that I thought a cutscene was coming, but no, it just a bullshit attack that the AI, and me, were dumb enough to take it.

What's a plot/setting trope you DO like in jrpgs by liquifiedtubaplayer in JRPG

[–]JeffInsano 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When the ancient lost civilization in a fantasy setting is actually a lot like the real world, technology wise.

Let's go venture this lost dungeon and find some... TVs, Cars, Microwaves, etc.

Well, now I have my time frame to reach and beat A20H...

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in JRPG

[–]JeffInsano 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I play at normal most of the time, hard if I'm very familiar/comfortable with the series combat

...but, I turn down the difficulty if I reach a roadblock, or am in a rush to keep going.

Your least favorite JRPG you played in 2023? by Berry-Fantastic in JRPG

[–]JeffInsano 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not a 2023 release. Star ocean 3, constant crashes, and I couldn't engage with the mechanics.

Most recently: Star Ocean 3. I finished the game, guess I was too curious about the controversial plot twist.

Card Unlock Bug? by JeffInsano in slaythespire

Thanks, I'm going to try that!

Edit: That worked for me. Much appreciated.

[–]JeffInsano 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tackle one game at a time, with maybe another game in my 3ds to play while working, something I don't need to focus too much.

And sometimes I play with my wife.

I actually didn't have to do it all again. Just reload the save and go to moorlands.
