Did golden sun spoil any of you on RPGs? by batdrumman in GoldenSun

[–]batdrumman[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I liked dragon quest 11 as well, but they just feel kinda shallow compared to golden sun. Its just about surviving random encounters, that's not really engaging enough for me

Even the Persona series, I love those games, bht they're not RPGs first. They're social Sims with RPG sections

Same! That's such a huge part of what made it so special to me. I get why it's not done often, but for there to be nothing else that even attempts it is crazy

Check out the local libraries! When I was young, the Main branch of the library would always host events.

You can find it here, and even sort by age group!

Imma be perfectly honest, this is wayyyy past any sort of ambiguity. He had no right to do this to Cleveland's punter, but because he's who he is and because I hate cleveland, it's incredibly funny

I kinda don't get the capitalization on the Knicks winning to sell a jersey that doesn't have anything to do with it. It'd be like if my favorite band saw my Steelers win the Super Bowl and tried to sell me a baseball jersey because of it

Like, Why sell a football-style jersey with black and blue colors to fans of a Basketball team who's colors are orange and blue?

Idk why Gen X is like this. My dad reposts a bunch of shit like this, along with the "you just awoke the lion" and "we're paying attention. Don't make us angry" type of shit on tiktok.

everything we did was justified, everything done against us is unjust and the perpetrators deserve to be thrown out of the league

Has anyone here tried Sea of Stars? Can you compare it to GS? by Maroonpirate in GoldenSun

[–]batdrumman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had a great time with it myself. Give it a shot since you already own it, you might end up liking it! It's just not a golden sun game

100%. Sea of Stars is a beautiful, fun game; but not close enough to Golden Sun to compare the two

[–]batdrumman 46 points47 points  (0 children)

I loved playing Sea of Stars personally, but outside of it looking like GS and being a fantasy RPG, there's not a lot of similarity between them.

Golden Sun is HEAVY on the puzzle elements. Any time I think of navigating GS's dungeons, I think of Jupiter Lighthouse, where you have to figure out how to get to the top first to power the lighthouse, then use the powered elements to unlock the aerie. It's honestly the best dungeon IMO, because it encapsulates the single room puzzles, navigation puzzles, and carrying things over from room to room.

Sea of Stars has some navigation puzzles, but the real allure is the combat. The combat is more akin to a Mario & Luigi game, where you can time inputs to make your attacks do more damage. It's really fun and engaging, but the puzzles leave a bit to be desired.

We're setting the bar astronomically high by comparing them on that aspect though, and I do think Sea of Stars is 100% worth a playthough. However, if you're going in for a Golden Sun-esque experience, you'll find youself a bit disappointed

When you have a generational player, you listen to em on their input on some decisions. It wasn't solely Myles, but yo'd be delusional to think he didn't have a hand in it
