Acacia Sgt Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 What a deadly Bishop. Also, I can't help but be humored by what seems to be an indoors map... with forts. What, are they clown-car esque fortresses? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The most important item of the bunch, as she drops it, and weapon regen durability every map in this game (since durability is super low in general (max 10) and you can't buy anything. Money is used for making weapons stronger, and that's it). Having a one use rescue every map is super good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I capture them i stop reinforcements and get exp and gold if i capture them fast enough. Like in this map i have 5 more turns to get the exp and 8 more turns to get the gold. The game does have Same turn reinforcements btw, BUT, and this is very important, it warns you a turn before they spawn with a big exclamation mark on where they will spawn Edited July 10, 2020 by Shrimperor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it's still an amusing image due to the size discrepancy. Makes me think of Shining Force II, with the party's mobile base. Aw, that takes away the fun of it!

Armagon Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 2 hours ago, Interdimensional Observer said: From what I know of its prior life as Clover/part of Capcom, Okami is somewhat heavier than the average 3D Zelda, but still within that oft-compared-to franchise's usual narrative ballpark. Viewtiful Joe is nonexistent for the story after the intro and before the conclusion. VJ2 I never played, but it appeared to increase the amount of story, but not by a whole lot. So even before becoming Platinum, their games were very much "gameplay first, story last", with only the NieR games being pretty much the exception. Interesting. 2 hours ago, Shrimperor said: buy them used So long as it's a good price and not "$3 less than full". 1 hour ago, Shrimperor said: meanwhile i am fighting this scary thing That's just Yandere Eirika. 25 minutes ago, Acacia Sgt said: Aw, that takes away the fun of it!

DragonFlames Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 Today really was not my day. First, my printer gave up the ghost, then my grandmother hurt herself while cleaning. I stayed with her for pretty much the entire day and while I'm happy to spend time with her, seeing her hurt like that was not pleasant at all. Luckily, she avoided serious injury, but still.

Codename Shrimp Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 this fucking guy Auto-intercepts anyone who comes in his range and attacks them. He also has a 3 range spear lul.

Do take care of her and yourself, and be careful! I have my own experience with my granduncle. It's especially worrisome when they are stubborn (like my granduncle is) and never ask for help, so you always have to worry wether they are ok or not...

Codename Shrimp Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 4 minutes ago, DragonFlames said: On a different note: what is this game? A japanese SRPG studio game, Yggdrasill https://www.freem.ne.jp/win/game/22967 I will just qoute what i said earlier today about it 😉 Quote so yesterday everyone's random Shrimp decided to go and try some japanese SRPG studio titles (and tried to use a texthooker to tl, but that was a disaster) First one i tried, called Yggdrasill, had the following: - Morale system. You get Hit/Avo/Crit bonus the better you do on player phase - Weapon durability that regen every map, but have low durability instead (imagine 3H magic but on all weapons instead) - 2-3 range bows - 3H like danger lines - Unit based skills instead of class based - an assault system where units who didn't attack can move again in exchange for stats (reducing your def/res to 0). It's also somehow tied to the morale system, but can't figure out how yet xD One of my main problems with english srpg studio fangames is how they try to copy FE 1:1 most of the time, so i decided to check and see some jp ones. First one already lookin pretty cool (not using standard srpg studio art or assets, or gba ones for that matter, helps quite a bit in making the game more appealing) Also early pegasi get's such a good skill. 100% evade next attack after defeating a unit. Kinda op, but i like xD I've been mostly using google tl and my FE knowledge to go by, but i am honestly really enjoying it. It has some pretty neat ideas and gimmicks that aren't actually annoying, but instead have to work around. Not to mention same turn reinforcements that actually seem kinda fair? xD 14 minutes ago, DragonFlames said: Yeah, my grandmother is stubbornness personified, so it's extra worrying when she does ask for help.

While true, age also matters. It really annoys me everytime i find my granduncle carrying heavy bag on the street because he didn't give me a call to go to him (i just need 20 min. with S-Bahn). Or when he needs something instead of calling help he does it himself and ends being hurt (which more times than not leads to me calling ambulance...) 11 minutes ago, DragonFlames said: Sounds interesting!

But, if you clear the brige on the other side, you get access to 2 tiles that increase your magic range by 8 (and mag stat itself by 6), which should allow me to clear that scary side pretty easily... however, on a 3rd side there is an archer with 10 range, that i can hopefully rush with my flier to take out (by using assault i would sacrifice def and res for a turn, but get basically +7 mov) then rescue her out with my staffer. Not to mention my flier has perfect avoid after defeating an enemy... The map before it had a boss that reduced my Max HP of all units by 1 every turn, so i had to act faaaaaast. It's some cool stuff ngl Also having a witch is always a plus. A witch with a 3 Range prf tome <3, but reduced inventory space.
