Acacia Sgt Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 (edited) But seriously, spending two weeks with my foot in a cast and having to use crutches was certainly not fun. And I learned my lesson. Since then I stopped jumping the last five-six steps of any flight of stairs.

Lightchao42 Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 I like to imagine I'm a background character who barely contributes to the plot, but has a moderate fan following. Having fought Meta Knight in Forgotten Land, he doesn't mess around in this game. Making him an Arena exclusive boss is a good way to work around needing a reason for Kirby to fight him during the main story. You even get to use his sword for your trouble, though I won't get it until I upgrade Ice and Sleep first. (It would be nice if Meta Knight himself was playable, but I'll take what I can get.)

I'm Garon, which means I'm evil, apparently. Quote Isn’t Rogue Legacy 2 a roguelike though? Not sure I’d enjoy that, but then again, I’ve never actually played one. Sooks damnit I'm supposed to sleep but you're making me gush about games over multiple paragraphs It's... kind of a roguelike, but with one major difference. Like a roguelike, the map and your character are randomly generated each time you die. Unlike a roguelike, there is progression. When you die, you get to spend all the gold you obtained in the run into a wide array of upgrades for your castle. That's what I mean by there not being any time waste in the game. In pure roguelikes, when you die, all you gain is practice. In Rogue Legacy, when you die, you actively progress. You can also, with the right upgrades, disable most RNG from the game if you like. The architect can lock the castle down and prevent it from being generated randomly, though he takes a gold fee that increases for each run you keep the castle locked. You also unlock a special shop after the first boss. Among its wares are the abilities to lock one of the three possible heirs (new characters to pick after death) to a specific class, spell and trait. But honestly, it's just more fun (and profitable) to explore the random castle with random characters. These are best employed when you want to concentrate on a boss. So yeah. Rogue Legacy 2 takes everything good of roguelikes and everything good of linear RPG progression systems and combines it. What's not to love? 19 minutes ago, Sooks said: I’ve always wanted to learn the piano. Such a pretty instrument. However, pianos are expensive, so it’s never happened. I took piano lessons as a kid. But I dropped it when I entered high shool. Too stressful, back then I couldn't stand failure, and it nade playing the piano incredibly frustrating. I've occassionally considered picking it back up. Too little drive for it, though. 25 minutes ago, Acacia Sgt said: I remember taking piano lessons as a kid. Coincidentally as an early teen I sprained an ankle for jumping down too many stairs steps.

Saint Rubenio Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 (edited) Progressing after dying doesn't mean death is mandatory in Rogue Legacy 2, though. The abilities that are most impactful and/or required to reach areas of the map are tied not to castle upgrades, but rather heirlooms. You find these in the world, and once you acauire them by besting their challenge, they're yours forever. Of course, this means you don't have to upgrade anything if you don't want to. Quite the opposite - if you're godly enough, you can beat the game on the first life! Still, most people will die. The game isnt easy. The fact that they kept the games challenging while making them accessible by turning the act of dying into part of the fun is one of both Rogue Legacies's strongest perks, in my humble opinion. That, and RL2 introduces house rules, which allow you to customize the difficulty to your liking. Even straight up cheat, if you just feel like watching the world burn! Fuck, I need to sleep. I'm regaining the horrible habit of using my phone in bed. That's terrible, I need to stop this again tomorrow. Stupid books and their words that elude me! I had to stop leaving the phone out of reach so I could google them...! Edited May 1, 2022 by Saint Rubenio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The possibility of both of them sucking, however miniscule, is uh.....not something i want to think about haha. I will say, just to get it out there, my main concern with Xenoblade 3 is it's villains. Mr. Wild Ride seems like he'll be fun but it'll be really important how they handle Melia and Nia (i'll reluctantly accept brainwash, provided it's done in a way that makes sense but i'd rather not). Ethel is another one i'm not fully sold yet. And since this game appears to have a high(?) number of female antagonists, i really hope they nail that. Xeno is a series with very good female characters and very good antagonists but for some reason, they almost never overlap. I don't know why. 6 hours ago, Sooks said: Maybe if I was in the mood for more SRPG, but fe9 has left me wanting to play something else. I’m not 100% sure what though. Sooks since you have a PS4, you can play Gravity Rush 2. It's only $20, has a free demo, and it's really fun. Do not play the first game, the first game is doodoo ass and it really doesn't matter anyway. 5 minutes ago, Sooks said: Welp, I know what I’m going to play next. …why do half of Skywalker Saga’s steam reviews mention sex?

Sooks Posted May 1, 2022 Share Posted May 1, 2022 (edited) The bad news is I have no idea what order I want to play through the movies in. Like at all.
