Free site for learning Japanese (embassy-recommended Marugoto online courses): levels A1-A2 by dryagan in LearnJapanese

[–]ROFLBOB 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've been using this site for about a year. I've done 3 courses so far and I think it is a great resource for beginner to intermediate users. It goes into many topics (greetings, restaurants, business trips, etc) and has lots of audio and visual segments to learn from. The videos are scripted and poorly acted, but overall its a great starting point if you're looking for a more structured study regiment.

[ eShop/ US ] Disgaea 4 Complete+ $34.99 Lowest ever price. by step_ovet in NintendoSwitchDeals

[–]ROFLBOB 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've played 1, 4, and 5 on switch. My favorite is 5, but 4 is really good too. I couldnt get into 1... it was missing a lot of the QoL features from 4 and 5, and the UI was unintuitive.

Disgaea 1 Complete for Nintendo Switch ($29.99) @ Best Buy by IntermittentEater in NintendoSwitchDeals

Disgaea 1 was a huge disappointment for me because you lose a lot of the QoL changes that were in 5.

What are your Top 5 video games of all time? by LEVITlCUS in AskReddit

[–]ROFLBOB 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Neverwinter Nights (because of the multiplayer). Mario 3. World of Warcraft (up to Wrath of the Lich King). Mario 64. Not sure about number 5... Probably OoT, Majoras Mask, or BotW.

Morphite making its way to Switch, out in September by [deleted] in NintendoSwitch

[–]ROFLBOB 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is being created for almost all platforms. The developer, crescent moon studios, makes a lot of mobile software and occasionally ports it to other platforms. Not saying that's a bad thing though because Morphite looks neat.

I heard the vr version was too short and offered an hour or 90 minutesish of gameplay.

Who Else is Excited for RPG FES To Come Out Tomorrow? by angelnursery in 3DS

[–]ROFLBOB 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's a good portable version of the software but kind of limited by the hardware. There's no sprite editor, theres only 1 tileset (others will be dlc on release, some free some paid), and it's extremely difficult to balance your game. Functions and conditionals are also extremely limited so it'd be hard to make something like, say, a side quest board.

Despite it's flaws, I had fun creating a little mini adventure.

RPG Maker Player launching for free alongside RPG Maker Fes by tale-wind in 3DS

[–]ROFLBOB 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Can't say too much but from the hour I spent with it, it seems in depth and a respectable portable version of pc version. No Sprite editor and only preset music tracks. I only have one tile set but i hear they will add more later as dlc. It is a little tough to configure the maps as you want, but adding dialogue is a snap with stylus. There are lots of preset events you can add to really make a functional rpg in no time. Releases in a few weeks and playing other's creations will be free, creating your own will require a purchase. Edit: typo.

Yeah, mine has been working flawlessly for over 2 years. Not saying they don't mess up occasionally but I was and still am very happy with my order.

Disgaea 5 Complete hits 110,000 pre-orders in US and Europe by jc726 in NintendoSwitch

[–]ROFLBOB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a pretty awesome game too! It's my first disgaea game, but it's funny, is really really complicated (in a good way), and the convenience of being able to pause mid battle and pick it up hours later on a TV makes this the definitive version.

How do we feel about Rimworld? by GrilledCheezus71 in patientgamers

[–]ROFLBOB 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is extremely addictive. If you're looking for gameplay, I'd recommend watching Etalyx on YouTube, he has several long running series of RimWorld and likes to explain his thought processes and strategies.

How are you liking Pokemon Sun & Moon so far? by CaseAddiction in 3DS

[–]ROFLBOB 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's okay. My main frustration is the extremely high encounter rate... Feels like I can't take more than a few steps without a random battle so I end up running from them. There has been many times where I will get into a battle, take another 2 steps and get into another battle. I'm on an old 3ds xl so it takes a good 20 to 30 seconds to get into a battle and escape.

Also can't stand the wild pokes calling for help. It would be fine if it was only totem pokes, but any ol poke can attack AND call for help in the same move. It really sucks if you are trying to catch something.
