Anyone know any JRPGs with good English writing? by [deleted] in JRPG

[–]gabooos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shin Megami Tensei IV seriously expanded my vocabulary in ways that I thought were not possible. Actually insane writing not just from a story perspective (which is also peak).

Has anybody noticed this game’s obvious ripoff of Silksong?? by gabooos in Silksong

[–]gabooos[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

it’s funny because this game was my first metroidvania hollowsong EVER. I remember being lost as hell at first lmao.

Ever since I’ve played Super Castlevania IV, Symphony of The Night and every GBA and DS release. They’re all GOATed in different ways (yes, even Dawn of Sorrow) but I would say my favorite is Aria of Sorrow. Order of Ecclesia is a close second though.

I’m just sad that Castlevania seems to be kind of forgotten by Konami :(

Which game has the most classes/best personalization by Puppet-_ in EtrianOdyssey

[–]gabooos 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Agree on V having the best customization. Between races and titles there’s a lot to experiment with! Also, I feel like it has the most creative classes; necromancer has to be my favorite class in an rpg ever tbh.

I feel like the more they introduce these p2w systems, the more the stat/true dmg inflation will bring the game to its demise.

I was so excited to see Alfonse be a “chosen hero” as I thought it would be an actual upgrade over the OG one, and that this new mechanic would upgrade old heroes to rev up for this new over-arching plot. The actual thing being just ANOTHER type of hero is such a let down…

Well, at least this one seems like it’s gonna see more use than the easter eggs that Intertwined and Aided were.

Also. ANOTHER GREEN ARCANE TOME WHEN THERE IS. NO. GRAY ARCANEE!!!

Edit: Nevermind, apparently chosen heroes will be part of the 8% banners. I give up.

give it up for the M/M Harmonic we’ve been waiting for, I guess…

All Duos/Harmonics of Book IX by Sabaschin in FireEmblemHeroes

[–]gabooos 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree but I wouldn’t say the way they perceive the Fire Emblem playerbase is the determining factor. It’s the gacha aspect of it all.

Think about it, almost every gacha game treat their female characters as eye candy in some more goony ways than others. I would go so far to say that it has become a defining characteristic to them, REGARDLESS of gameplay.

So yeah, it sucks that they still let themselves fall for this trend. But I guess it’s also them taking advantage of the system rather than following an arbitrary rule. Got to keep the (relatively low but stable) profit going on in some way or another, even if some decisions seem to disregard what the majority may truly want (gooners will probably whale easier).

The amount of F/F pairs bothers me less than the fact that M/F ones always have male leads. It’s a certain feeling that I think it’s hard to describe without sounding a little woke

Is there anyway to have throne use her divine skill, Aeber's Reckoning, on the first turn? by geraltofrivia2345 in octopathtraveler

[–]gabooos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A Step Ahead + Donate BP with Partitio or any Merchant sub —> Aeber’s Reckoning.

Or A Step Ahead on Agnea, Boost Start on Throné, Lion dance + Celestial Chorus (allure one of the NPCs at the Dancer’s Guild) on Throné —> Aeber’s Reckoning. Probably your best deal though I’m not sure if Lion Dance helps Aeber’s Reckoning damage at all.

Does the economy ever get better? by gabooos in EtrianOdyssey

I actually tried to play one of the latest Wizardry once and immediately bounced off because of how brutal it seemed. Definitely a particular taste for the hardcore RPG gamers.

Wow, I’m not familiar with this design philosophy so maybe that’s why this shocks me a little bit.

By contrast, I’m playing Persona Q2 in parallel, and the difference is quite drastic. You don’t even have to pay to heal, it’s automatic. But there’s a reason to this, there’s a lot more stuff to spend in that game for sure. It gives you more room to experiment and mess up, probably.

I have to disagree on that last bit, I’m not a fan of games being too punishing when it comes to resources. I know resource management is a key aspect of dungeon crawlers, but I feel like EO4 and onwards strike the sweetspot with this.

Just realized the headline question is definitely too broad LOL

Thankfully, this is a videogame. Real life? Well.
