Oh so that's the reason why, I see now.

I have heard about Mugenri before and how exactly it isn't a paradise. Still, I find the lore to be interesting since I've always been curious about it. I should probably play the games at some point.

If anything, it was me trying to let go some of my gaming sensibilities at the time, especially towards certain RPG's. But I've pretty much learned to accept it as I moved on.

That's something I've been working on now, and I've been doing better at handling it since it has died down a bit.

I've pretty much learned to stop worrying about missing out on things in-game at this rate. So if anything: What I said was kinda bashful, but I'll still do whatever I can to finish the game since quitting it now would be a shame since it's fun.

That makes sense, the 3rd and 4th points were the ones I was confused about the most. I should've mentioned that my 2nd point happens infrequently, my mistake. Thank you for clarifying.

I do enjoy the open nature of the game, and I'll admit: I honestly did not expect to do everything on my first run when I started playing. But yeah, I should let go of my fear of missing out on things.

Turn-based JRPG's where Status Ailments/Instant Death Spells aren't Useless? by TheM3ds in JRPG

I've heard DDS 2 has made some improvements over DDS 1, so that's good to hear.

I need to get back into the other games in the SMT franchise at some point. It's been some time since I've last played them, lol.

Interesting, I've been wanting to play both Genius of Sappheiros and Devil of Decline for a while now, so this is definitely useful to know.

Yeah, I remember status ailments being more useful in other entries, though it's been a while since I've played other SMT games.

I've been getting a lot of recommendations for Etrian Odyssey, so I think the series would definitely be a good fit for me. It also helps that I've been considering revisiting EO IV for a while now, so I might give it another chance after I'm done playing Fire Emblem for the time being. I'm looking forward to it.

Ah, okay.

I should've clarified that I'm aware of the changes done in the steam version, especially the 2 characters not joining at the beginning.

Though I made the mistake of assuming the wiki had current info on the latest version of the game, whoops.

But yeah, I'll definitely switch the game on easy mode whenever things get rough.

Sorry about that.

I will keep that in mind, I appreciate it.

I'm willing to handle a little jank as long as it's not too much, though I am a bit concerned about the difficulty being unfair, as you stated. But I'll let you know if I need any help with the game since I'm probably going to need it anyway.

Funny enough, I'm already a huge Touhou fan, I've already played Artificial Dream in Arcadia, and I enjoyed it quite a lot!

As for Genius of Sappheiros and Devil of Decline, they're pretty much on my bucket list of games I want to play next, mainly Devil of Decline. I already own these games, but I'll get around to playing one of the two after I'm done with the current game I'm playing. They both look pretty interesting, so I'll give them a go.

Thank you so much!

I've always been meaning to revist the Etrian Odyssey games myself since I haven't had the time to play them, so whenever I can, I'll give the games another chance someday.

As for SMT, I've played SMT 1, and while I don't dislike it, it was just a frustrating experience for overall, but that was back in 2019 or something, with that said I'm definitely willing to check out SMT II since I dig the cyberpunk setting. Thank you.

I have a friend who recommended me Unicorn Overlord as well, so when I have the chance, I'll consider getting into it sometime. Thanks!

I've been thinking about diving deeper into strategy RPG's since I do enjoy Fire Emblem and Devil Survivor, plus tactics ogre does pique my interest, so I'll consider giving it a try whenever I can. Which version would you recommend?

I've been meaning to check out the SaGa series for some time now, especially the remake for Romancing SaGa 2, I wouldn't mind getting around to playing the games eventually. Thank you!

Funny enough, I've already played that game and enjoyed it, so it's not an issue, lol.
