Yeah, the last boss is kinda stupid and poorly communicated. You basically have to use the D-dive, then fire your giant fucking laser at the dude until your D-counter runs up to 128%. Other than that though, I thought BOF5 was a fucking amazing game.

OP should also check out a game called Soul Nomad and the World Eaters. It plays like a cross between a normal NIS game and Bahamut Lagoon. It's pretty average story-wise, but after you beat the game, you open up an alternate scenario that lets you be the villain, which is always fun.

What's to hate? No controller support? Most PC builds and games have extended controller support compared to a few years ago. You could even map older games to use it.

Plus you're not stuck in a shitty set resolution by the console because its hardware can only do so much. Take the PC port of Valkyria Chronicles. It looks so goddamn nice blown up beyond 720p (the cutscenes are stuck in that resolution but it can't be helped.) and you get to enjoy near constant 60fps even in an average toaster. Consoles are seriously losing influence in each coming gen. Their only relevance now is its still tight grip hold on certain genres like JRPG's and fighters and even then they're starting to come around.

Demons souls is a boring, unfinished, uninspired kings field derivative with a less imaginative director who didn't really know what he was doing.

Dark souls was somewhat more realised and interesting, but still lacked focus and was generally uninteresting due to a huge rushed schedule.

Dark souls 2 is a polished, quality game that bought back core values of what makes games like this truly special, and I for one congratulate the team and Naotoshi Zin on accomplishing that.

Fire Emblem 7 is pretty fucking solid. So is Awakening, even though it might be a little bit newbie-friendly to start out with.
The thing is that since most of the FE games weren't released in the West, and that the series has evolved quite a bit, there isn't a "best" game out there. Anyway, the best way to play the series is to try a little bit of each era and see what you like. The Elibe games (6 and 7) are generally seen as being pretty good, and both are readily available in English and playable on VBA.

I really pity EOP's who started the series with 7. It's 6 where they should've played first to make Rekka no Ken's story even more effective. I'd recommend 8 as babby's first since it's in a universe all of its own.

>> No.12735551

>>12735539
Going from 7 to 6 has some charm of its own, though. It's in chronological order, increasing difficulty and it actually makes a bit more sense than the reverse order (because many things were just made up for 7, so the story won't seem like such an ass-pull).
I don't like EOPs either, but don't kid yourself - if not for the FE7 release, most people out there wouldn't have played FE, none of the others would have been translated and you'd be left without the community (which is actually not retarded).

(OP here)
The GBA ones (6,7 and 8) are the ones I enjoy the most by far, mostly because of combat. The sprites and animations are just so much more satisfying to watch and play with than the older stuff which visually looks like shit and the newer stuff which looks bland and uninspired.

FE4 likely has the most interesting story, as >>12735528 said.

The original is mediocre as hell. It's an unbalanced sandbox where half the interesting classes are hidden behind grinding that only serves to overlevel, the interface is awful, creative level design of any sort is rare, and it's mind-numbingly easy. Unless of course it's your first tactics game, which I suspect it was for most anyone who thinks it's anything better than decent. Its relevancy is purely due to the final fantasy name.

Its true, and in fact I got terribly bored after seeing all the classes. but all the options for character skill customization have its charm, and even after reaching level cap battles still are fun. if you don't use a surefire op party, that is. in the end , those are all pretty common flaws of any old school tactical rpg. the only really balanced trpg I've ever seen is Vandal Hearts
by the way, how comes that no one said Vagrant Story yet?

>> No.12736101

I just always stick to older JRPG....Star Ocean 3 if you like....unless you hate the grinding part

For story i think Xenogears or Xenosaga would be enough

For More Action Tales of Symphonia or Abyss or any Tales series will do but i recommend Vesperia if you want

for casuals you could try Ar Tonelico or Mana Khemia if you want to have a VN slash RPG style

anything else i didnt mention please forgive me since it's been 5 years i haven't play any JPRG

I'm not trying to be a smart ass when I say this, but just don't. I'm not sure how your build is right now but at a minimum you want to be at the weight level where you do the fastest rolls which = more iframes. It's better to get in the habit early so you have an easier time later. Get hit all you want now so later on you don't.

>> No.12741702

My character is fairly light but not as light as she could be, are you saying I should make her the fastest she can get ignoring defence and then add more armour when I can? Also, what do you mean by I frames?

Capra demon's hard.
Kill the dogs first and fast, and know that the ledge up the stairs on the left is exploitable as hell.

Yeah. Blocking's still good, but dodging is usually betterin souls games. I wouldn't strip, but try to keep yourself at 50% equip load or less for the medium roll.

>> No.12741710

>>12741702
As long as you're below 25% of your maximum weight limit you're good to go. i-frames stands for invincibility frames which means you have x amount of time during your roll where nothing can hit you, this allows you to roll right through attacks. It's important that you have the fastest roll because not only do you get the most i-frames from this, but you also recover faster which means you can follow up with more attacks. There are various rings in the game which increase your weight limit and you might want to prioritize these as they would let you wear heavier armor while also doing the lightest rolls possible.

I'm gonna go to bed because it's late, but some more food for thought. You might not want to spread your skill points too thin, typically it's best to stick to 3-4 skills (hp/end/str or dex, or both depending on your weapon) the rest aren't really useful and magic is for fags but don't let me tell you how to play.
