Hello /v/

Oh, did you get the broom closet ending? The broom closet ending was my favorite!

>>8205023
>NO FUN ALLOWED ANYTHING FUNNY IS /v/
whats ironic is that redditors like yourself probably think youre some great defenders of board quality

>>8205019
based

But a "but thou must" situation doesn't let you end the game. You're just delaying putting off the advancement.

>>8205019
There is Doraemon jrpg on Famicom where you can do this in the very beginning when Doraemon asks you to help find his friends. You'll see the ending screen (bad one, but still), so yeah, it actually counts.

Interestingly in the case of Persona 3, the game (or at least a prominent character in it) discourages you from taking the only correct option. (one ends the game prematurely and is clearly the bad ending, the other just opens up the rest of the game and the actual ending.)

DQ I famously has a bad ending though. If you select "yes" when dracolord asks you to join him the game ends.

I will do the thing.

I don't get why Nintendy doesn't just add some stats and character customization & extra difficulty modes (Think dark souls) to ZELDA to make them action rpgs, and really go viral and crush the competition

>game gives you dialogue choices
>outside of the immediate response of the NPC, it doesn't affect the story in any way.

>>8208480
because they're good as is desu
not every game needs to go for the same shit. we're drowning in games with rpg mechanics

>>8205882
Surprisingly a lot of Harvest Moon games have a "no" option at the start that just ends the game

>>8205882
Try playing a game produced by a company other than Nintendo some time

>>8208480
>I don't know why Nintendo doesn't fuck with their formula that's still making them mountains of cash over 30 years later
Truly a mystery

I played the SNES version a while back and picked yes and then the hero wakes up in bed in town and it was all a dream and you have to re-do the final dungeon. Did they change that from the NES one?

>>8208480

No thanks, zelda 2 fanboys moved on to other games

That's not a "but thou must" moment then.

Kinda related, in willy beamish if you pick the “‘mean” answer usually it results in insta-lose. I’ve never saved so many times per minute in a game before

I CAN SEE I CAN SEE I’M GOING BLIIIIND

>>8208480
Because grinding is garbage.

>>8205019
Rayman 2

>>8209119
learn the game mechanics and you won't need to grind rats for hours to leave the first dungeon,

tl;dr git gud at rpgs

>>8208487
This is unforgivable

>>8208861
It's a play on a but thou must moment. The player assumes that selecting yes will start an infinite loop and make you re-select, like a but thou must would, but then the game just ends.

>>8206675
If you say yes, the timeline goes into the Dragon Quest Builders timeline. Hero from DQ1 is actually the second to final boss in DQB

U can use the vibration test in MGS to jackof lol

>>8208492
I wish so bad the MML games had h scenes.

>>8208591
Frankly, I'm glad. I didn't know these choices did nothing as a kid, and always felt anxious about what I might have done wrong. I don't really like computer RPGs for that reason.

>>8208480
>and really go viral and crush the competition
You're right. BOTW sold fuck all didn't it.

>ITT times you acted like the Joker.

>>8210263
But those are objectively the right answers. If you're raising pokemon you do it to win. Otherwise you're just raising a pet.

>>8208480
It's a kids game

why does she look like she's panting like dog
