/jp/ - Otaku Culture

Touhou.

That feel when the first real Otaku Culture thread made today that wasn't a blog entry goes straight to page 10 without a single contributing reply.

It's a feel I know all too well, original poster.

Have some bumps.

By the way, Mother 3 is an obvious one that comes to mind. Also one of the Dragon Quest games for the SNES.

Der Langrisser

Famicom Detective Club Part II.

Clock Tower for SNES.

A few of the Fire Emblem games come to my mind. Have you ever tried the Super Nintendo ones? They're great.

Live a Live? It's pretty cool.
Also that slayers rpg on the snes.

Waiting for Ys 5

Demonophobia, I waited a lot for that one.
Also as >>9774000 said:

I would love some anime/games/media that was translated from Japanese as a sort of joke, making it ten times more funny than the original.

>>9774075

If you're an Earthbound fan, there's Mother 3 for the Gameboy Advance

>>9773884
Would I be able to play this and follow the story without having played the first one? Since, to my knowledge, the first one is untranslated.

>>9774075

Der Langrisser completely machine translated. I've only played a little bit of it, but it's really funny.

Mother fucking three.

>>9774150

Yes.

>>9774150
Yes

>>9774203
>>9774204
Cool, thank you.

Who should I pick?

Shin Megami Tensei.

Mother 3 best game

>>9774257
Settler

>>9773696
>Hourai Gakuen no Bouken!
Watching people play that game is more fun then actually playing it for me
Guess im just not MLG enough

>>9774257
Monica

>>9774042
I've been waiting for Xenophobia...But it doesn't seem like it's ever going to get finished.

bravo op, you have finished one of the RPG must play

>>9774707
Why would you unironically post this?

>>9774710
It would actually be a decent guide if someone cropped off the right four columns.

>>9774707
>Ore no Shikabane wo Koeteyuke
NEED TRANSLATION

Even kotaku have played it

>>9774783
Please don't misuse spoilers.

>>9774707
Are Atelier Marie and Elie translated?

>>9774707
this list is lacking Linda³

>>9774789
Nope

>>9774707
For the rightmost columns, what about the Monster Hunter series? They're not story-oriented and don't have a turn-based combat system, but they're still JRPGs and apparently very well-received.

>>9775084
I refuse to take that side seriously as long as it has Final Fantasy XIII on it.

>>9774707
>90's JRPG worth playing
>1999, Final Fantasy VIII

What?

>>9775112
It should have XIII-2.

The right side obviously isn't meant to be serious anyway.

Why is Romancing Saga 2 untranslated? It's killing me.

>>9775127
>Romancing Saga 2
Just go play the best saga, Romancing Saga 3

>>9774792

Was that ever translated?

>>9775122
I wonder if someone will make a proper list one day.

>XIII-2
Too much dlc. Especially since one of them has the best card game I've seen in a Final Fantasy game.

>>9775181
don't think so

>>9775136
Sorry, generational advancement will always be better to me.

>>9775197

Aw shucks.

Shrink High. Good luck finding the translation, though.

Unless you're really into GTS, in which case I could go out of my way to get it.

>>9775397
Please stop misusing spoilers.

I like Romancing SaGa III.

>>9774707
Can you please post the ones from 2000 - 2008? Thanks.

>>9775859
I should ageru this so that my voice is heard loud and clear.

>>9775859
The list is too long to fit in the image.

>>9775880
Can you post 2000 - 2008 separately, then? Thanks.

>>9775880
Are you still there? I'm waiting for the image. Thanks.

>>9775968
Please stop harassing me or else.

I was going to make a list but got bored while looking at a list of PS2 games.

>>9775978
Why the HELL is it only PS2 games? I'll harass you as long as I want to, homo. What the fug are you going to do about it?

>>9775981

>>9775985
You look scared. Your eyes are closed because you're not ready for me. Look at the way your legs are. They're at an awkward angle. They're shaking. You're not ready for me. I'll take you out in a single blow. You should retreat while you can.

>>9774707
Finished around 50% of that 90's list.

No wonder I never had friends when I was young.

>>9776019
Shut the fug up. Shut up. Don't talk.

>>9776021
Please... just stop. Just stop, okay? I'm begging you.

>>9776035
Okay. I accept your begging.

>>9776021
What, you think your man enough dweeb? I'll find you and punch you with my MAN HANDS.

Just like how I did your mom.

>>9776044
What the H*CK? Man hands? Holy sh*t, you are out of your vector. Your man hands are nothing but gay homo hands, I tell you what. Kid, trust me, you don't even want to start with me. Just quietly tip-toe back to your cave and don't ever talk again. I will seriously mess you up if you attempt to berate me further.

>>9776049
That's what I said to your mom last night.

>>9776053
I was around my mom the whole day yesterday, and I didn't see OR hear you. Checkmate. You don't stand a chance against me.

>>9776060
You do know that's not your REAL MOM right?

>>9776062
Stop playing games. You don't even know me.

Policenauts.

HELLSINKER

MOTHER 3!

>>9774707
You know why this list has a gap between the years 1999 and 2009? Because it's makers were all born mid-nineties and decided to list old rpg's everyone has heard of along with hipster ones together just so they could then make a statement about their first rpg's, played during the 4chan era. Bonus points for le rage face.

You know, I've never seen a list of worthwhile pre-Dragon Quest JRPGs. Were they really all so bad as to be forgotten completely after DQ?

>>9776973
It's because all of them were Korean nida

>>9776062
Please don't bully!

>>9776973
wait, Dragon Quest isn't the first JRPG?

>>9778010
Nope. Dragon Quest introduced the JRPG turn-based combat system and random encounters. Before that you still had a town with an Inn/Item Shop/Weapon Shop/Armor Shop, you still had equipment, items and magic, and you still had the experience system, but you saw the monsters walk around outside of town and mindlessly bashed them with your sword until they were dead, at which point you got extra experience.
It doesn't sound bad, but it was very primitive, and DQ's much more strategic system was a huge improvement over the pre-DQ games I've played. Then again, my experiences with pre-DQ JRPGs is very limited.

>>9778742
Sounds like Crystalis, but that came out after.

Dragon Warrior (Quest) is hard. I don't know if I'm doing something wrong but every time when I cross the bridge the enemies murder me in like a second.

>>9778010
>>9778742
Here's gameplay of Hydlide, a 1984 JRPG (2 years before Dragon Quest): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pmrxfeozmis

>>9778756
Yes, they continued making pre-DQ-style JRPGs for a while after the release of Dragon Quest. By the 90s they'd become nonexistent, though.

>>9778772
That's an aspect I loved about DQ1 (though I never got very far because in general it isn't very interesting if you're used to more modern RPGs): the game doesn't give any 'you shouldn't go here yet!' bullshit. It lets you access any area you want to go to, but you'll be stomped to death if you go into a high-level area too early. You're not supposed to go there yet.

>>9778742
It sounds like Ys and Ys is awesome.

>>9778779
You love railroading.

I want to play the early shining force and megami tensei games. Anyone here played them?

>>9781961
I should hope most people here have played one of the other.

Honestly, I wish more games were like Shining Force. None of that Fire Emblem crap, mind you.

>>9778772

I think someone says something about that. Right now I'm level 12 and getting anywhere has been tough. I keep getting sleeplocked when I try to run and everything three shots me. Heal is a terrible spell later on.

>>9778808
>You love railroading.

Isn't he arguing the opposite?

>>9785297
It's both railroading, actually. One is railroading by force (you can't go in here!!), the other is railroading by making all other options impossible (sure you can go here, but everything will one-hit KO you). Still, I much prefer the latter option as it allows you to reach 'too difficult' areas sooner than you normally could as long as you're good enough to survive there. In heavily stat-based games like DQ you'll still need the numbers to back up your skill, but in more skill-based games it allows you to do awesome things. I recall slaying a Troll with a bow in Gothic 1 or 2 at a time when they could kill me in one hit. Things like that are always awesome.
