Lightcosmo Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 6 minutes ago, Newtype06 said: was agreeing with you. I just thought it was funny Lets just be clear: if the game is too easy, I dont give a shit, being difficult doesnt = fun inherently. But if the game is designed around choices, dont make one SO busted (I.E CS) cause if so, then why have (for example) 50 options when the player only wants to use one? If this is the case, why, bother making those options? CS is the worst case of this cause CB is so busted that any other option isnt even worth attempting.

Lightcosmo Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 If anyone enjoys easy games, great! Thats totally fine! But I dont want to sit there and play on auto pilot the entire game, thats boring, easy or difficult. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Rubenio Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 (edited) So not only does this game require you have knowledge of Blackjack, it also wants you to know your Roman numerals. I do not remember Roman numerals. I can figure it out as long as it sticks to Is, Vs and Xs, but beyond that... I think C is 100 and L is like... 50? Maybe? EDIT: Turns out I did remember my Roman numerals. But I misread the number. It was CVIII, not CVII. Oof. 36 minutes ago, Newtype06 said: Is this game good?

Saint Rubenio Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 You know, I would've appreciated more entourage slots, though. When the plot forces me to deploy two characters I want nothing to do with, I can't keep Daniel out of the group, and Daniel... Well, he isn't that great.

Do you mean that DQ had multiple games covered? The Heroes shared a moveset because they're all blank slates and it's not like Sephiroth could have three different characters as alts. In terms of licensing, DQ's biggest hurdle was the music with only two tracks per game, and it didn't get any remixes while FF got four (the only other DLC series to not get remixes was Kingdom Hearts). Even the spirits were either recurring enemies or exclusively from DQXI, and the stage was also from XI. I imagine the Dragon Quest rights aren't spread amongst various parties like the Final Fantasy rights apparently are, which is what I meant by "licensing issues". What I should say is, since time and resources were limited, the developers chose to represent VII well rather than skim the surface of every other game. 8 hours ago, Saint Rubenio said: See, there's a small difference here: Exit Fate is actually a good game.

Still, he would've been cool to see in Smash. --- Alright, finished Idra Cave! Man, Terraclone was... well, thank goodness for Margaret's healing spell. Still, perhaps it's a sign I needed to forge a bit more. Sadly, not enough gold ore to craft everything at once. I'm already in the early 70's in terms of level so... I'm way covered there, heh.

You can find an in-universe book called "Kitty-Talk for Dummies" that contains several cat phrases and what they mean; for example, "Nyaaoo〜n" means "You're absolutely right." If you memorize the phrases (or screenshot them), you can understand what cats say when you talk to them. 20 minutes ago, Newtype06 said: They should've went with the best protagonist His main weapon isn't a sword, so he wouldn't work as an alt.
