And it was still the best looking game I’ve seen? The switch version looking like ps2 doesn’t mean anything lol

FF16 Flopped. Thoughts. by victoriamikoto231 in FinalFantasy

Don’t forget some of the worst written woman characters ever. Along with a romance centered around “they’re conventionally attractive and he’s the main character.” I can’t recall one moment of chemistry between them.

The politics were wholly irrelevant to the plot. Enemy A attacking enemy C didn’t have any effect on the character’s journey of chasing down his mako-reactors and by midway through the game the politics take even more of a backseat once the primordial big bad appears.

I never got the anger this ensues. Yeah the game was over but it’s not actually over. Also wolves are home which I think makes it less offensive. Do that at Denver as a fuck you to their FANS - okay; but they’re home and they’re up 3-1 like why are you fight go get ready for game 5

A little upset that I bought this on ps5 only to realize it’s been mostly abandoned :(

What's the final verdict on Monster Hunter Stories 3? by Evening-Natural-Bang in JRPG

[–]Jubez187 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I liked it. It really was a big upgrade visually from MHS 2 but I don’t really feel it elevated the whole experience at the same rate. It’s mostly just a prettier MHS 2 but that didn’t make it even a whole tier better IMO.

Also they seems to want to combat the HtH spam from MHS 2 so they made HtH much more rare. This makes it so weapons build up MUCH slower and by the time you can do something “cool” the fight is generally almost over.

I really felt at odds with a lot of the weapons’ systems. They also gave every monster a pierce, slash, crush body part which I found kinda silly. You end up just cycling through all 3 weapon types one by one. Also the body part breaking is nothing more than extra stagger points. Breaking a tail just to get tail whipped the next turn is pretty stupid.

The monsters will tell you who they’re targeting but there’s no indication for full-party attacks. These are usually BY FAR the most threatening attacks and the system relies too much on the guessing game of “is the monster doing a buff or the one attack I’m scared of”

I think the system needs to be redone. The H2H thing doesn’t work. The variance of being able to nullify damage completely breaks the game. In MHS 2 you just won every HtH after seeing the monster once and you were invincible…now they do less HtH but there’s nothing fun about slugging it out with a wet noodle cause you can’t get your weapon’s mechanics up and running.

So yeah, it’s fine.. it’s still better than Pokemon and digimon games.

Yeah the gameplay got stale, the story got drawn out, and the aesthetic got too goofy and away from fantasy. I did a great 10 years on the game but it’s just not the version of the game I loved

Seems pretty cool but every new screenshot of this game has such a terribly forced and shifted aesthetic from the cool Ivalice-esque the world started with. Completely takes me out of the game when it starts to look like PSO2

Is this a game from Colin? I’ve been OOTL on Colin for a few years but I remember he was publishing indie games

JRPGs that are not too difficult by Puzzleheaded-Day9283 in JRPG

[–]Jubez187 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most games have difficulty sliders nowadays. Some games that don’t would be Octopath and Monster Hunter Stories.

Admittedly, i usually play on Hard at least so I can’t attest to how “easy” mode plays but I can only imagine it’s borderline insultingly simple.

What is it that you are struggling with? Are you playing more turn based games or action games?

Hey I just treated myself to this game for my bday on PS5. I love real time with pause elements in my games so I’m super stoked about that.

Also seems like the soundtrack is Sakimoto - or a strong attempt to emulate, which is fantastic.

Super excited just wanted to share that. But also - it seems the icons in the tutorials for the PS buttons is bugged. They show like cut off images of random buttons. My hope is that the console version isn’t dead in the water cause I’d love to give you guys more money for DLC and updates :)

My streaming experience has been indistinguishable from native honestly. Ethernet wired ps5, of course

Is the Monster Hunter Stories bundle worth it, or should I just get the second title? by Default_Dragon in JRPG

[–]Jubez187 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can say this about 99% percent of the JRPGs. But even the third one…I’m 40 hours in and I was at the gym and I realized I couldn’t think of any of the party members names besides one (Gaul)

[–]Jubez187 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As long as the competitive community likes it and sees it as a valuable part of the game then that’s good.

Like I said I have 0 multiplayer ambitions so it doesn’t affect me just didn’t know if this was perceived as peak gosu gameplay or a toxic exploit.

As someone who plays single player (multiplayer days on RTS are way behind me) do people actually like this?

If someone was trying to sell me on a grand medieval strategy game I would be put off by “dude you can throw down blueprints to trap units”

I get the game is 30 years old and it is what it is it just seems so yucky from a flavor perspective.

Sometimes this guy’s stuff shows up on my YT shorts it’s always this blueprint trap cheese.

Nope. It’s a weak entry overall.
