>>1352841 I think Metal Max/Metal Saga is the only jRPG to ever pull off "open world" well, and it only works because 1: It's not a true "you can go anywhere right away", it's more you're locked into a region till you beat the boss the blocking the way to the next one. You could rush that boss right away, but in practice you're expected to do lots of what are nominally sidequests to gain power. 2: That only works because the game has so many vectors for growing stronger. It's not just character level, but equipment (which is more than just incremental gains, totally changing how you attack and the elements you have access to), vehicles and vehicle equipment (which is relatively "locked" in power, with character level having a noticeably small effect compared to new equipment), and occasional access to a shortcut/boss weakness/etc. 3: Those sidequests are only interesting because the world is whacky and the blank player character is allowed to make fun interactions.

>>1353850 Yeah, an open world JRPG or a semi-open one can work. It's what the Romancing Saga series is too, in a sense. It wouldn't work with Tales due to how character-focused the series is. You can't have open-ended stories like what happens in an open world with a tightly-bound and bonded cast unless you record tons of extra dialogue and write tons more lines to account for the dozens of permuations of progress and how it would related to characters developing and growing. You can get away with fixed characters or characters growing independently of each other, but as a party it would be a tangled web of branching paths and possible interactions if you wanted to do it right. What if we go to X town related to Y charcter first in stead of second, that kind of thing. Basically, it'd be really fucking expensive to do right, eat up a ton more resources and result in less effort elsewhere like graphics (and we can't have that in this day and age, god fucking forbid), or if Bamco isn't willing to put in the effort it'll cause too many issues for the character writing or result in static characters. I just don't see it working with the current team in charge. I'm sure it'll sell because of marketing horseshit but I expect it to be like Arise and not have much of a legacy outside of annoying normalfaggots comparing anything else anime style and open world to it. They could also do something like the Octopath games with mostly-fully-developed characters that affect the people around them and help those in their individual stories, with a tiny but of self-development, but that'll be such a sharp divergence for the series you'd be better of naming it something new. >>1330162 Still working on that playthrough, anon?

>>1140452 Sage cuz doublepost, but you fucked up anon. Tales of the Abyss on the 3DS is one of the few games you can't get through the Eshop,as it never had a digital release and only had physical carts for some reason. I'm assuming you're talking about actual hardware here and not emulation of course.

>>1125045 (OP) It's disappointing that Sony has some good titles like Wild Arms and Ape Escape, but they're stuck in cold storage.

>>1343217 I'm still gaslighting myself that a Skies remake will happen.

I miss Resna already

>>1044640 For me, it's Veola.

>Fall in love with Mana Khemia >Find out Japan fucking hates it, it's the lowest selling games in the series and the chances of Mana Khemia 3 happening are some orders of magnitude below zero It's the weeaboo version of finding out Santa doesn't exist. It's fucking Persona and Atelier mixed, how could it have failed?

>>1287908 How big is her penis? jk, I know girls tend to prefer more casual stuff and of the friends I have who play with their partners, Stardew Valley seems to be a pretty popular choice along with Minecraft.

>>1354582 Double posting like a faggot but I guess I should add flavor of the month stuff too, for some reason I've come across a surprising number of chicks playing Lethal Company, Phasmophobia and the like. Probably due to how much of a focus those games have on social interaction.

>>1287908 It Takes Two looks interesting but I haven't played it.

I mostly play old fighting games on MAME, like Street Fighter 3rd Strike and Garou: Mark of the Wolves. Although, I am annoyed that many USA versions of arcade games got fucked over by the FBI. The FBI forced game devs to include the "Winners don't do drugs" screen in many 90s arcade games. I actually prefer European versions because they don't have this unnecessary forced PSA.

>>1293221 (OP) Is there a working rom of Panic Park?

Unless you count arcade-like games like the Touhous, or NES' Gimmick and not just arcade games, no, I've never 1CC'd a game before; I'm very much a scrub when it comes to arcade games. At one point I wanted to 1CC either Metal Slug X/3 and maybe In The Hunt, but performance on MS always fell flat at Stage 2, on ITH it was immediate. Arcade emulation as a concept also hates my guts, MAME and Fightcade alike. I'm always getting filtered by the emulation setup and rom checking; like I wanted to get into Progear because a friend recommended it to me, but I couldn't for the life of me make it work. It was a miracle I got Metal Slug X running recently. Also, loosely related, but I made a doodle for a friend of mine, he is an arcade nerd (and also helped me to get MSX running). How much of a bad idea do you think it is to play a fighting game with shared inputs?

Is it strange that I like this thread more?

>>1264528 No I do too

I made a races rebalancer mod. https://files.catbox.moe/fg8if8.esp It's pretty simple stuff, basically a mixture of those two: https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/21875 https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/47782 > Made some races more receptive to hybrid classes. This was the main motivation behind the mod. > No powers or spells. Only passives with a couple of "toggleable" abilities. > While balancing considered multiple weapons/armor skills as if they were a single one, since realistically you are just going to use just one weapon type and one armor class > Hopefully balanced. The Altmer is the only one I'm iffy about (permanent 1 magicka regen)

>>1349927 Holy mother of AI.

>>1347036 These Xbox consoles are absolute fucking shit. I learned last year after not having played my consoles for probably about a decade. My drive doesn't work anymore either for the Xbox OG and my 360 is a loud piece of crap with the disc tray constantly getting stuck. I also falsely remembered the 360 being backward compatible with all Xbox Original games but this was never the case. So I can't collect some of those obscure Xbox games now like I was planning. And yes I was also planning to play them. I decided fuck it its just not worth all the hassle. Perhaps at some point I will mod them like you but maybe they won't even work anymore soon enough. Meanwhile my old as shit PS2's work fine. Even my damn N64 and PS1 works. Even my Gameboy handhelds work although the Pokemon G/S batteries long died so no way I can save. But at least it still works as I would hope despite the age. Microsoft is an absolute piece of garbage company. They need to just go third party already and stop with these shitty consoles. All these Microsoft games would be better ported on PC anyways. But on the topic of Morrowind, doesn't this edition have even longer load times then the original? This was actually one of the reasons to get an Xbox over PS2 back in the day since gaming on PC wasn't as easy to get into or as cheap like it is now. Plus Morrowind as a console exclusive was absolutely a big deal and a huge plus for Xbox. PS2 doesn't have anything that can match it.

>>1352701 Could you reup?

>>1352701 Very informative, thanks. I use mgba but I didn't know it could do that.

>>1352701 What's in the screenshots folder? The thumbnail look intriguing Seconding the other guy, that's a nice thing to find out about mgba.

>>1245971 you know why. Why are you asking?

So is the setting a sort of afterlife or dream world? Is it supposed to be a wacky matrix? There's references to sinning and repenting, with genies seemingly being the thing that decides if you move on or not. A kind of purgatory? It's clearly not meant to be that thought out, but the setting internally probably has at least one 'line' of consistency. I'm not familiar with Ena past the game though. >>1084101 >will break your back hunting every single secret and bit of lore or you'll find it completely uninteresting. The aesthetic for me isn't something I like or dislike. But I really liked Outer Wilds and this kind of reminded me of it. Puzzle based kinda-walking sim with some platforming. Got both endings. >>1245499 Taski kept appearing in random places which was amusing. Called me out when I was following her in the maze. I hope we see more of her in future chapters. Definitely best girl, though I want to see more of Coral Korean.

>>1350586 >So is the setting a sort of afterlife or dream world? Is it supposed to be a wacky matrix? Even if you watched the animations (which you should, it's not that long and they're good) you don't get much information beyond it being a surreal world, most likely a digital world, with some powerful beings that can grant "wishes", and yes some references to it being a purgatory as well as some insights on Ena herself.

>>1299173 >>1299505 No matter what she wears, she will always have the blank look on her face.

>>1343873 I can't believe you did this to her.

>>1102113 (OP) >All we ask for is a trailer. This is the best I got. I know it's not much, but it comes in handy from time to time.

>>1102113 (OP) Not a new trailer by any means, but I've never been in the show before and at the very least I'd like to have one 8chan rep. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2720340/Cole_Dingos_Vtuber_Blackjack/

>>1351658 Though, I think according to your rules you need a trailer cut uniquely for your show. So if I get the opportunity I will try to do that.

>>1346442 > Zeno Clash got the Nier Automata treatment Do you get to see some fat ass on robot girl in this game?

As with all the other Zeno Clash games, I loved the art style. The game itself is fine? Zeno Clash just looks and feels so fucking weird and there's nothing else like it.

>>1347327 Lol no, I mean the game got a lot of heart put into it compared to its predecessors.

>>1330997 A certain schizo spamming

>>1336368 I think it might be /bag/ schizo. I saw him spamming random threads in the overboard once

8chan is comfy, sucks threads of niche games like these are not more active.
