Lightcosmo Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 Salvation has been attained, i have reached level 48 finally. Second Chance will be a godsend for Critical mode. And the rest of the extra bosses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lightcosmo Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 Sadly in Critical mode, MP regeneration time is cult in half, meaning in need to wait around 1 whole minute before I can start healing/spellcasting. Unfortunate drawback that i dont like to deal with, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean i could've but there is a certain vibe you get from actually playing a game that can't be recreated by watching a playthrough. Besides, it's not like i disliked the combat or thought it was actually bad. It just wasn't what i wanted coming from Eternal Wings. But yeah, if you're ever in the mood for more Monolith Soft and want multi-protags, check out Baten Kaitos. Or most of their library actually, Monolith Soft seems to like doing dual-protags a lot.

Armagon Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 Just now, Shrimperor said: what scares me from them is their gameplay pre-XBC honestly. Doesn't look like i something i can enjoy gameplaywise Well judging from what i know of your tastes Xenogears has random encounters so that's instantly RIP Xenosaga Episode I is kinda weaker gameplay-wise than Xenogears but doesn't have random encounters. Although what might kill it for you is the near total lack of music. Playing Xenosaga Episode II is the worst kind of torture there is also random encounters lmao. Xenosaga Episode III has aged quite well. It's the best of the pre-Blade Xenos and it's even got some Trails-esque mechanics in how you can cut in line in the turn order and take some bonuses for yourself (the other Xenosagas do this as well but their combat is nowhere near as good). Both Baten Kaitos games are card-based RPGs, not sure how you feel about those. Eternal Wings is good, if flawed, but i liked the freedom. Origins' combat is simple but kinda more restrictive comparatively. Namco x Capcom quickly devolves into tedium, it's why i dropped it. Project X Zone 1 is cool although mid-game and onwards definitely artificially drags (i struggle to complete maps in one sitting at times). It's probably the most fun 6/10 game i've played tho (the PxZs are post-XBC). Haven't played Endless Frontier duology but that's got random encounters so RIP. As for Soma Bringer, Disaster: Day of Crisis and Project X Zone 2, haven't played these yet, i know @Interdimensional Observer has played Soma Bringer so perhaps he can tell you a bit more. Although from the recent test run i did, it did remind me of Ys 7 (not in boss fight length lol). Disaster seems like the anti-Monolith Soft game tho, so i'm avoiding it.

Eternal Wings combat (i placed a timeskip to avoid spoilers also it's in Spanish also enjoy the shitty English voice acting) Origins combat (don't watch past 3:15, it skips to the final dungeon) This is just vids tho, like a lot of RPGs, watching vids =/= actually playing it for yourself. ____________ Edit: LMAO Heihachi.

I thought it was a fundamentally solid Action RPG, not the greatest title, but it would've been a pleasant light distraction back in the day. I feel the game would've been more fun with co-op as the game was intended, but obviously emulation can't do that. I also made the mistake of picking the Kampf(?) class and running a sword and shield with healing magic, which is very safe, but boring. The NG+ only Hard or Very Hard difficulties with a more offensive-oriented class could be challenging and fun. The Soma (mage) class is probably hindered by a lack of co-op on the higher difficulties, you can't really leave the AI to distract the enemy for you as you stand still casting spells. 59 minutes ago, Armagon said: I mean i could've but there is a certain vibe you get from actually playing a game that can't be recreated by watching a playthrough. Not to mention the 4-part no-commentary longplay of BKO I found skipped on reading the letters or taking to NPCs. Neither is truly mandatory, but the little things can add to the experience if you're of a certain mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, a lot of playthrough, even 100% runs, just focus on doing that and not looking at the little things that improve the experience. Chuggaconroy seems to be the exception. If the man ever does let's plays on the Baten Kaitos games, i know he can do them justice. 1 minute ago, lightcosmo said: XS III doesnt have turn bonuses, only the first two do. Are you sure? Because i know it has the Boost mechanic, wouldn't make sense for it to be there if there were no turn bonuses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am 100% sure on that. game would be hard af if it did though! Edit: the specials go off of the players BG, along with turn skips, and you can have up to 10? BG with all the BG boost accessories. Enemies max out at 6 i think. Edited June 22, 2021 by lightcosmo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
