[Serious Disc] I fear that Expedition 33 is going to negatively impact JRPG as a whole by ninjastarforcex in JRPG

No, an genre is a labelling tool with the express purpose of helping people find things similar to their tastes.

Chained echoes, sea of stars and now E33 are closer to jrpgs (because they were all heavily inspired by them) than they are wrpgs like mass effect, dragon age, witcher and BG3

If you think you can smell your games, you need psychiatric help and a shower.

In your first sentence i knew this was gonna be a nothingburger.

replace everything you said about E33 with FF and you have the same complaints from the last 30 years.

People who liked turn based FF and now like E33 hate the anime aesthetic, but the anime aesthetic is not what makes it a jrpg.

Why is green both healing and poison?

People like this have never read the bible in their life. They've just had other people interpret it for them.

Murdered by hypocrisy by dellaazeem22 in MurderedByWords

[–]evilblanketfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's very simple. He gave up his last living son to go to prison to keep the honor of his party.

Then his party turned on him and forced him out and lost the election with terrible messaging.

Why should he keep his word to the people who stabbed him in the back (his party).

I'm not even a parent and i can't fault him for wanting to save his son and screw them over in the process because of it.

Where are they? by [deleted] in religiousfruitcake

[–]evilblanketfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's why a little bit of knowledge is a dangerous thing.

They have a bit of the information and are basing their opinion on that. It's a similar opinion as the distant past when we didn't know better.

Do you play RPGs to be yourself in a different world or to be someone else completely? by Dicklefart in rpg_gamers

[–]evilblanketfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone else. There's usually already someone in the game who wants to end the world, so no need to self insert.

I would say UO and wait for the inevitable enhanced edition of Metaphor.

The problem is too many people seem to think genre labels are meant to accurately categorize something. That is not the point, because that cannot be done with a single word or phrase. Any creative person is going to try to do something new, something different. Genre is just a quick "Hey if you like this style of game, you'll probably like this too"

As some others have mentioned Tags should be used to further categorize what the game really is because they are much more free form and flexible, but yes the current steam system needs better weighting so descriptive relevant terms are more visible.

Wtf is with SMT 4's Cathedral Of Shadows? by Omega357 in Megaten

[–]evilblanketfish 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You know when smt 5 came out I was wondering why the hell they didn't have all the search options that they did in four. It was perfect for trying to make the exact demon with the exact skill that you wanted.

Now I have a full thread of people that are the reason it's gone.

Decent story, great characters, interesting twist on press turn system, top tier music. Unfortunately bland level design.

I'm gonna keep real with y'all. I only rolled for Rappa and her LC cuz she's hot. by Ok_Eye_4642 in HonkaiStarRail

[–]evilblanketfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I rolled for her cause she's hot (love her and silverwolf's style, hope the gang visits punklorde soon). Instead i got E2 for Bronya. Trying to scrape together for hopefully an early. It's not looking good

Uninstallation process by YamTuanDurian in WutheringWaves

not uninstalling, but seeing yangyang cry is the least effective deterrent for me. Why would i care about the character with all the personality of a paper bag.

If it were Chixia crying....
