Parasite Eve 2 actually, although maybe it shouldn't count as an rpg but it has real time combat with rpg elements, which is what makes it so engaging for me, not like modern mash x to awesome FFs for example. I like turned based rpgs but they're just not as fun to play on a moment to moment basis.

valkyrie profile is cool, it has the soft bleary glow of a waking dream
threads of fate is very charming, rod and johnny wolf are top tier, and the game really helped to popularize giant shoes
wild arms 2nd ignition has an untouchable plot, in that you've never seen an analysis or breakdown video of it on youtube

Extremely easy, messy game design, literally no story if you dont play with a FAQ, list goes on. Great presentation and art and cool gameplay (on paper), all ruined by horredous game design and writing. I name it the tri-Ace syndrome.

i agree on a few points, but i feel like its not so much the overarching plot that is the draw, but rather the vignette style closed character arcs that paint smaller portraits that fill the museum. i would also say that the crystal platforming offers a unique and often times demanding mechanic that challenges traditional dungeon design. certainly not for everyone but it is very unique for the time, and even now

Not more than the generic "it's easy to imagine anyone liking any game for any reason no matter how stupid". For example, you're hyper-fixated on one thing that most people either don't care about at all or actually consider a plus. You aren't a good barometer at all.

Ease up there baby boy. I'm not hyperfixated on it. The pacing of the game is flawed by the over world design. Abandoning it was a smart move by Square. Other flaws include massively OP materia system which trivially breaks the game, a flaw it shares with 6 and 8 and their respective systems.

What does that even mean, not only psx era shares the same overworld design, they even removed the interactivity they used to have were you could get a lot of times just by pressing A in front of bookshelves, clocks, etc. Pre-rendered backgrounds look good at the expense of being nothing but a picture

I'm talking specifically about FF7. It is the first game in the PSx era and marks the series' transition to 3D. Naturally there are some holdover elements from the previous generation. Overworld is one of them.

[Anonymous No.10717481]

>>10717451
And I'm talking about the rest of the psx era jrpgs. Take Chrono Cross for example, the overworld is no worse than Chrono Trigger. You can just select where to go in Parasite Eve's map.

The overworld designs in the 16-bit games were tight, linear when they had to be, and rewardingly opened up once you got airship. Outside of the Weapons I didn't really feel this was the case with 7. Hence my comment: the overworld design doesn't do 7 any favors. It would have been better with a more linear progression in my opinion.

[Anonymous No.10717514]

>>10717497
this post is incoherent. you’re not making a point. the overworld design? it’s the planet, same as with 6, and 6 is also nonlinear.

Like, the concept of having an overworld. Overworld as a gameplay element. Not talking about the geographic distribution of mountains and villages, though, yeah, I think it's a little sparse and random in 7. 10, for instance, does not have an overworld.

you’re really not making any sense, your complaint is that it’s a sparse overworld. it isn’t, it’s bigger. if i’m into hidden stuff in the overworld? did you even play 6? in 6 it’s nonlinear and you have to explore hidden places to find characters. 7 basically copies 6. you’re using all the wrong points to draw contrast between the two.

[Anonymous No.10717663]

>>10717620
Well 6 is a 16-bit game with extremely fast load times. 7 is an early 3d game with extremely slow load times. The overworld paradigm doesn't feel right. And, I just think 7s world feels emptier. Less is more when it comes to 6.

Legend of Mana, and yes. Just wandering around and running across events and quests was a lot of fun, exploring dungeons, and working through all the crafting bullshit the game offers. Even better is that you don't have to do all that if you don't want to, and can instead focus on learning weapon combos or taking your pets out for a monster beating.

My one complaint is that you can accidentally softlock your game progress, if several quests overlap but cancel out required elements. It's also next to impossible to find some of the more obscure parts of the game without a guide, although that's more of a neat bonus to find out if it does ever happen.

>Extremely easy
It's not that easy the first time you play it and don't know what you're really doing. There's plenty of really challenging areas of it. I hate that so many older games nowadays are so harshly judged because everyone knows all of these powergaming strats and speedrunner level exploit bullshit things to do in them that trivialize them and then they complain that they're badly designed.

Valkyrie Profile has great design for the most part and my complaints for it relate far more to the broader design of the Asgard and Hero sending aspects than it does the core gameplay, which is excellent.

It just feels pointless discussing this stuff because some 30 year old autist is going to claim a game that was aimed at less skilled teenagers in the 90's is "too easy" if it isn't some kind of Wizardry level poopsock grinder game. Let's just write off the whole generation of those games rather than accept them as they were in the context of their release dates and their consumers I guess.

All the fun materia you get way too late into the game and the best spot to grind it all up is in the final dungeon and by the time you master enough copies to make some interesting and fun combos you'll be so high level you can just go fight the final boss naked mashing Attack.

This is a problem with all Final Fantasy games. Extremely fun systems that are locked away for the majority of the game and Attack is just almost always the superior option.

VH1 is just an all around example of everything working RIGHT. It's not perfectly balanced but every class is very functional. The stage variety always keeps things interesting. And the story doesn't shy away from grimness and brutality but the heroes are heroic. There's a spark of thematic optimism in all their goals. More to point unlike most modern JRPGs it says a lot while saying very little It doesn't brow beat you over the head with constant chatter for the illusion of depth. You get a sense of who the major players are and why what's important is important and Ash himself ends up being a rather compelling character as he deals with and learns about his father's supposed treachery and he still manages to keep that optimistic spark the whole way. What did he say to Dolph "You would condemn mankind for their sins but I would fight the gods to save them." Ash rules.

the sad truth is that you get A LOT of materia at the end of the game with ZERO time left to actually level it up unless you spend time in the northern cave swamps defeating movers. it's not widely known, but random encounters are actually completely predictable upon reset, so you can fast track killing movers by knowing exactly how many battles there are until the next mover battle, and then reset when you know the next mover battle will take more battles to come up than starting the cycle fresh.
the poor materia distribution is the one criticism i can level against the game.

My favorite has to be FF9. I know people complain about the long load times for battles, the shitty card minigame, how some characters stories don't really go anywhere or just kinda fade away as the game goes on, etc. I have complaints of my own, about the shitty Chocobo Hot N Cold game, the forced Red Light Green Light minigame on Disc 3, etc. For it's faults, it still manages to be fun and have some degree of depth. Most FF games have some strong gear or setups you can do at specific points in the game if you know what you are doing. Nearly all of FF9 is geared around the obsessive hardcore player who is keeping track of everything.
If you aren't stealing from every boss, you are probably missing out on good gear. You can get OP spells and abilities through blue magic if you are keeping Quina around. You can grind to OP levels early in the game if you can figure out how to survive the dragon, and even fight an optional boss sooner if properly prepared for it. Speaking of properly prepared, thanks to the Ability system you can alter the immunities and defenses of your team prior to any major battle that is giving you problems. It's a level of customization almost on par with the Job system of FF5. And you never want to sell off your old gear, and probably want to buy some spares thanks to the Synthesis system. Get a rare drop equip off of some enemy? Probably better farm a few more just to be safe.
Best part about it, is most of this is optional. You don't have to min-max, steal from every boss, get the best blue magic, or even get the good gear from Chocobo Hot N Cold in order to beat the game. Even a large chunk of scenes have been designated optional, and can be skipped by not pressing Select. You don't even need to learn abilities if you don't mind throwing on weaker equipment when you need a specific ability. You can engage and interact with the game as much or as little as you like, and still go the distance.

Final Fantasies needed a new game + feature. There's just too many situations where you can get super powerful shit but you only get to have it for the last ten minutes. There's a NG+ hack of FFVI and it makes the game amazingly fun on replay. There you don't keep your levels though because of the way the growth system works. But you do keep most everything else.

>>10722178
yeah. even if you go through the trouble of leveling up your materia, you only really get to beat up the 2 weapons with your neat setups before you run out of things to do in the game.

that being said, i'm more into weak characters than NG+, but it would still be a nice and trivial feature to have.

>find a really weak monster for the first time when i'm kind of far into the game
>literally too strong to capture it
it's a neat conundrum to have, one that i've never encountered in a game before.

It seems too cruel to me to intentionally inflict sadness on them just for the sake of getting fewer limit breaks. I would always leave fury on Barret though, and sometimes leave sadness on the others if they seemed sad.

Retard. You don't understand the point of the overworld at all. Given the rarity of your particular position, odds are good we have had this argument before meaning you should understand, but didn't retain because you are retarded.

I wouldn't consider Threads of Fate an RPG but I think it's an enjoyable action adventure title. Who did you play as?

I played as Mint first, then Rue. I liked how you have to play as both characters to get the full story

no, the sadness and back row is to quarter any damage because the goal was to keep everyone at the lowest level possible (except aeris, who sponges the bulk of the experience that is forced upon the party). it's the only way to make a minimum level and complete playthrough work. i managed to beat dio's challenge at the battle arena with my lv8 cloud, beat the rest of the battle arena with aeris to get omnislash, and got beta from the zolom with almost no HP to spare. i'm pretty sure you can face seph with a lv8 cloud because there are no more boss fights in the game where he's required to survive the battle (i think rufus might be the only required fight for cloud to survive in the game, which got him to lv8)

Yeah, I agree. The only other JRPGs I like on PS1 (Lunar remakes + Grandia), I prefer on Saturn.

Chrono cross

[Anonymous No.10724330]

>>10716578
The PSP remake of the first one is on Switch and PS4 as well now. I think it's funny in a way; get this:
-SO1 comes out on SNES
-SO2 comes out on PS1
-SO1 gets a remake on PSP
-SO2 gets a remaster on PSP
-SO1 gets a remaster of the remake
-SO2 gets a remake

lol, but you should play either the remake or remasterer of Star Ocean 1. (First Departure/R)
and you should totally play Star Ocean Second Story R.
that remake is perfect.

Yeah, but early Final Fantasy was more for 9-15 range. My kids are 3 and 6. They love Vivi and think Steiner is funny.
