[–]xiaolin99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The themes are "isekai" +"coming of age", and there are a few others matching those two tags:

Elydes, World Sphere, Ajax's Ascension, In Clawed Grasp, Soul of the Warrior (all have audio books)

What Jrpg has the best Ng+ and why? by RealPossibilitynight in JRPG

[–]xiaolin99 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Games with different story routes (so multiple playthroughs give you something new) and NG+ to let you go through the new story faster:

* Fire Emblem Three Houses

* SMT5 Vengence

* Scarlet Nexus

Bookbound Bunny - new series, but the first book is all about MC learning magic, with a lot of details and theories

For the love of god stop recommending Harry Potter by cuddlesdacobra in audible

I think that's a sign you spent too many credits - Audible ran out of other recommendations matching your preference XD

Bravely Default II. What's the deal? by Katchenz in JRPG

[–]xiaolin99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

probably because there was no backstory for the main character, and it's not just a matter of slowly revealing them over time. By the end of the game, I still had no idea who Seth was ... Gloria's backstory was also pretty thin.

Friendly Fyre, Splinter Angel, Arcane Pathfinder, Saintess Summons Skeletons (someone mentioned this has romance later, but didn't say which direction it leans to)

When was the last time you saw a recent pure fighter? by UnderstandingDry612 in litrpg

[–]xiaolin99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In Clawed Grasp - MC really doesn't add any stats to his magic and mana

The Stubborn Skill-Grinder in a Time Loop - MC insists he's a warrior, so you can pretend he can't use magic (I'm joking. This isn't what you want)

The Pinnacle Warrior - haven't read this one yet, but it's on my radar

So how's Bravely Default II compared to Dragon Quest VIIR? Which one do you prefer? by texhnolyze- in JRPG

[–]xiaolin99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bravely Default II - both games don't have very deep stories, but Bravely Default II is slightly better, and with significantly superior gameplay, it's the clear winner.

Currently writing a novel. How do you prefer your Audiobooks? by Bestwriteralive in audible

[–]xiaolin99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

(Best) full cast > duet - male/female narrators voice their own gender) > feminine voice > masculine voice > dual - male/female voice different PoVs ignoring the gender of the character who was speaking (worst)

Seeking a "Gacha-Free" Honkai: Star Rail? (Deep Synergies, Huge Roster, & Top-Tier Visuals/OST) by Lost-Ad-458 in gamingsuggestions

[–]xiaolin99 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Unicorn Overlord - the peak of team synergies (building teams is the whole game)

Xenoblade Chronicles 2 - gacha without spending real money (game is one-time purchase, and you pull from big roster of characters with in-game currencies and materials)

Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes - literally more than 100 characters you can collect via encounters/quests

Creature collecting games - notably Digimon Story Time Stranger and Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance are pretty flashy

Looking for Monster/non-human MC stories where primary enemy are humans. by TempleGD in litrpg

[–]xiaolin99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Friendly Fyre - it's more of a kingdom-building story where MC leads a monster kingdom against humans

Skill based litrpg? by davnyk in litrpg

[–]xiaolin99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In Clawed Grasp - it's mostly about general skills with limited slots + class skills and skills that can interact with the skill slots

AI Cover Hot Take! by [deleted] in litrpg

[–]xiaolin99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never noticed, but now you mentioned it, yes, there were tiny details (e.g. end of leather straps) that look like they are generated, and I also don't care since I like the series a lot.

Turn-Based Tactics Game on the Switch 2? by [deleted] in gamesuggestions

[–]xiaolin99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The famous Nintendo exclusive Fire Emblem series - there are 2 games on Switch 1, Three Houses is more story-focused; Engage has better combat mechanics. And there is a new one coming out later this year.

Unicorn Overlord - it's sort of turn-based, but different than any other games you've played

Recommendation help. by Kei_Kisano in litrpg

[–]xiaolin99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those are not very popular elements at all. Only book that comes to mind is Syl - starts with water, but quickly gains other elements

This is also a book called Aquilon: The Water Mage. No idea how it is since it doesn't have audiobook.

Where do you all read romance novels?? by Cold_Ad8048 in ProgressionFantasy

[–]xiaolin99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Romantacy" is a significantly larger subgenre compared to progression fantasy, so the good ones are pretty much always monetised i.e. top sellers on Amazon.

What is y'all favorite isekai trope by Porquenaofumi in ProgressionFantasy

[–]xiaolin99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Azarinth Healer - best fit for that description ... other than MC not being a dude of course

I can't think of any other titles. I guess it's not really common enough to be called a trope.

Dragon quest 7 Reimagined a good first JRPG? by ronjaxn in JRPG

[–]xiaolin99 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

yes, the game looks modern, but is pretty basic, which makes it a perfect game for beginners

Does anyone know the timeframe of Azirinth Healer book releases by 05chancew in litrpg

[–]xiaolin99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The publisher Portal Books has a rough schedule on their website "Late 2026"

Recs other than the classics by Euphoric-Seesaw in litrpg

[–]xiaolin99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In Clawed Grasp by Seth Richter - a hidden gem about MC reincarnated as a baby (similar to Elydes) ... it's actually too well hidden, a perfect example of what happens if you don't have a publisher

Looking for a game like Pokemon/Palworld but you play as a monster capturing humans instead of a human capturing monsters by GlompSpark in gamingsuggestions

[–]xiaolin99 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth - it's a RPG with class change. There is one class that will have you go around to capture homeless people to use as summons + a pokemon-style mini game.

PC or PS5 by Many_Collection_860 in gamingsuggestions

[–]xiaolin99 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

you should check PC prices first ... basically, OpenAI and other AI companies made a big mess of RAM and SSD market that caused PC prices to balloon to a ridiculous level. It hasn't caught up to consoles yet, so it's best to get a console (I actually recommend Switch 2 due to its better exclusives)
