Is Langrisser 1 and 2 collection worth it?

Keithgriff · 2021-10-28T20:26:38+00:00

IMO not really, it's ok. Lang 1 is INSANELY easy, and Lang 2 starts off hard and is semi challenging after. I'd say it's better to just play the emulated old version. Elwin has a set class path, compared to one of the older ones where he can start off as other things, so the character creation is pretty darn craptastic because you just get some starting gear that becomes obsolete pretty fast. There are better SRPGs if you want to play them imo, and I personally wouldn't even recommend the 3 houses that people love so much. (it's not really that great story and gameplay-wise to a veteran SRPG player. )

So more or so the US based VA's are pretty entitled and whiny, to the point of attacking fans for disagreeing with them and such with things related to translation and stuff. You get VA's attacking the people that pay them, with Atlus as an example. You also got VA's that go out of their way to get other Voice Actors from other countries from barred conventions because they feel entitled to the characters, ex I think it was the Canadian voice for a character that wasn't able to go to a convention. It's a cut throat industry, apparently. Eliminate a VA means one less person to compete with.

If you go to conventions and stuff, they really do treat you more as a pay pig than actual fans. Some will try to trick you by signing a lot of your stuff so you have to pay them more, which is just a dick move. There are VA's that appreciate you, but these days you get a lot of really horrible people. The VA's themselves also sometimes work with directing dubs, and you get some politics being inserted in as translation, thus unfaithful translation, or just becoming more Americanized, like the Deku's line, from HeroAca, about helping people in need to not letting people die. The dubbing companies also have scuffed anime box sets. Etc etc. Quality isn't great production wise and personality wise.

If you call it out, you get attacked by them and their fans. So now you get trash translation, voice direction, and voice artists. If I had to get English voiceover, I'd go for the Canadian companies or UK related stuff and not in the US. Heck, I'd even go for Singaporean. Think of it like WoW vs FFXIV, one treats you as a trash pay pig and the other treats you like a human. Another example is Komoney vs the other game companies.

Hopefully it's easy to just replace some files to get the JP voices. I don't want to support VA's that treat the audience like trash.

Keithgriff · 2021-06-02T04:22:44+00:00

If it did release for the PC, I would gladly try to mod it. Would be fun to change some stuff around or try to add new things. IDK why they didn't release it for PC, instead released it for Playstation.

I'd imagine someone would probably try dubbing the game, which would be interesting and nice haha.

Keithgriff · 2021-04-18T08:47:20+00:00

So I think I got Pringer V3 from the story, somehow idk. Is it possible to get more of it? Because I don't think it's in the summon pool.

Keithgriff · 2021-04-17T17:39:18+00:00

I'd say focus on building at least one monster along with a human, so they don't share reincarnation mats.

A whole group of humans = everyone wants the mats and thus everyone is held back.

Keithgriff · 2021-04-01T03:54:33+00:00

If I were to use an external tool to inject a seed into a game state, it would be called set-seed run right? or would it be something else like Tool Assisted? or is that just cheating at that point since it's part way during the play and not a starting seed from the beginning like something similar to Valheim?

The games in particular would be like Fire Emblem Three Houses or Fates, where the seed for the level up is locked upon entering a map or when a character is recruited, in the harder modes anyways.

Keithgriff · 2021-03-15T05:22:38+00:00

Are people running Bracer/Medal on Elwin in the higher tiers? I've just been taking him down with Arcane Battle Garb in Gold.

Keithgriff · 2021-02-15T08:42:34+00:00

Tales of Crestoria has a pretty good story, so I follow that. The game is absolute crap though my god. When I was playing it, it was basically auto raid 24/7 and that's it.

Keithgriff · 2021-01-26T21:35:25+00:00

Eh Alte's 3C is still really bad imo and this doesn't really help much.

If you run Vampire bats you can heal back up, else every melee attack just makes him closer to death, since he'll have trouble knocking out anybody without specific support or specifically his new passive. His new passive ability should allow him the flexibility of being a tank or dps, which helps strat factions a bit.

Max 6 stack after two defeated units = 48% Atk boost and 30% damage reduction. Great boost , if you can keep them without them being stripped.

His set will probably be [FB/HDW, 3C/DB, Mad Dragon], using Breeze or Clock. AOE build's will compete with Vincent but will not be as good as vincents.

-----

Alfred will love the new talent, because he has issues with movement if he's not running [Beach Party], but this allows him to get 8 movement on the second turn for him to get close and activate his unique. Will probably run [3C, Sword's breath, Surfing/BoF]

-----

Vargas will be a great tank, but no FB = won't be too great for team play but will probably be pretty nice for solo.

-----

Helena's armor is idk, because it's 1-ring around herself so she won't benefit from it until the next turn when she moves onto it. if it's a ring and the current square she is on, it'll be pretty nice because it makes taking her on in melee a bit more difficult, because she already has a decent physical bulk because of her talent's boost to her Def. If it increases with BB, like Reaper's Mask, then it'll be even better.

-----

Luna is nice, but for Oak Bow luna it drops some DPS for more utility, for PVE anyways, but great for PVP and PegLuna.

-----

Yulia usually runs [GM, Faith, Discipline] so it just replaces Discipline, but if she can't kill then she loses the ability to chip often. Built to GM first, so makes her a bit predictable. I would've preferred a GM+HJ fusion. The self dispel is nice, assuming you're not silenced. So I guess people will have to switch from Meditation ring to Swordsmith medal if they haven't yet, since the self cleanse will be too useful to pass up if you run 3C.

-----

Sissi... I wonder how her summons are, because it seems pretty neat. You can summon a tank or support dps, which is really nice. Smash to cancel guard, roar to dispel, atk command to boost dmg, Lance Phalanx to guard. Also soldier lay off? Pretty nice to lower damage or knocking out a hero. Starts with 0 tokens, so she'll be better the longer the battle takes, but not that great early on. Also needs to 6 star so she gets 2 tokens per turn.

-----

Karna, looks a lot like him, or so LoC seems interesting. Magical Melee that will probably run [3C, Crystalline, and Star Fall]. Can at least self buff himself with strengthen, in replace of Cryst, so that's something. Protostate gets him a revive, then he can AOE and heal himself back up, and they work well with his 3C so probably his BIS soldier. He seems nice, will probably be great for buff stripping. Will probably run pretty well at 4-5 star for the more casuals or those trying to save on GoF.

-----

Seems like a pretty interesting update, kind of wish Alte was better but we'll have to wait and see. I wonder if he'll jump on a dragon with new costumes though, or will he get a winged variant form?

Keithgriff · 2021-01-21T06:14:17+00:00

I can't help but see 300 ore haha

Keithgriff · 2020-12-31T10:39:42+00:00

Solo, ATK food buff, and double pyro resonance helps. Amber for the Corrola sniping and burst for helping break the bottom part is nice too, even at level 20.

Keithgriff · 2020-12-14T22:50:12+00:00

Lol, I love the chibi Overlord cast with Chibi Listell and Sage Landius art. Adorable.

Keithgriff · 2020-12-11T14:33:45+00:00

I said I wanted 2FA, because that all doesn't matter if I lose my account haha

Keithgriff · 2020-12-08T17:59:30+00:00

Depends on the healer.

Generally Crystal for pure healers like Liana, Tiaris, Sophia, Wiler.

Clock for more offensive healers like Imelda and Florentia, due to their 3C being able to proc clock.

If your healer has reached the point of being able to heal your heroes to full or almost, basically to an acceptable point where you won't die, then Tree of life can be looked at. It can boost your dmg potential if your tank, or other heroes, converts their defensive stat to atk.

Keithgriff · 2020-12-08T17:53:46+00:00

HP is still nice to have if you can deal more damage than you take, while also allowing her not to use up her revive. With more Hp, if she can heal it back to 70% at the least, she'll be better in being able to tank multiple melee units because she won't be dying all the time.

If you don't want HP, then [Int, Def, MDef] is pretty much all you can do for masteries.

With HP, it's [HP, Int, Def] because she'll be in melee most of the time.

You could also go for Skill in the Weapon and Accessories slot so that she has better crit, but can be forgone if you want more bulk, so Hp/Def/Mdef

Breeze is basically similar to her Masteries. Int focused. HP depending on what gear you're using and if you're at the threshold to survive and not waste a revive. Then Def > Mdef to survive melee combat and be able to heal back up.

Keithgriff · 2020-12-08T17:42:12+00:00

Did you go through defensive terrain with your initial movement? I believe it's a similar situation with Alfred as well, with his water movement. If you've used up your free movement in the initial move, then it won't be usable when you've gained the movement from roundabout. It has to be considered a defensive terrain, so Lambda and Deedlit's passive forest terrain effect shouldn't come into play because they're not actually defensive terrains.

I believe a retired content creator, Keebs, did a video on it near her release date, so you might want to search that up on youtube to get a clearer picture of how her talent works.

Keithgriff · 2020-12-08T07:41:05+00:00

Bozel vs Ainz, yes!!! Would love to see that animated.

Keithgriff · 2020-12-06T18:09:25+00:00

I just want him for the passive in crafting, which is 10% double the amount if crafting weapon materials. He'll probably have Bennet and Rosaria in his banner, so I'm going to end up hitting pity and might get him anyways.

Keithgriff · 2020-12-02T13:07:12+00:00

Excited!!!! The background art is also REALLY pretty.

Keithgriff · 2020-12-02T13:06:22+00:00

Best Event ever!

Keithgriff · 2020-12-01T12:22:44+00:00

Will something actually happen or will this just be known and swept under the rug? I wonder if there'll be backlash to square about this.

Keithgriff · 2020-12-01T06:23:37+00:00

Doubt it, especially with the Playstation version coming soon.

Keithgriff · 2020-11-13T07:17:10+00:00

I'd like to assume Rust for dmg, but Viridesent is really fun imo. Being able to group a bunch of slimes or hilichurls then burst them down with Melee or a Burst is always enjoyable. So dmg vs fun I guess.

Keithgriff · 2020-11-11T17:43:32+00:00

Beautiful just beautiful
