It already does from the Mechanics and responsiveness side 1 is Bump and most bosses aren't well designed 2 is bump and cool, but i prefer Napish and Party Ys over it 4 is pretty damn weak 6 is super jank Edited July 4, 2021 by Shrimperor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Rubenio Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 Okay, then. I suppose dark magic is just a lost cause, with two shamans who are better than me. But I still got anima, and no other mages to outclass me there. I suppose I'll just-- GOD FUCKING DAMNIT He's better than me, too... Why is everyone better than me!?

Problem with Ys 6: it's jank it's slow teleport comes too late and the game has quite a bit of backtracking (i was about to drop the game just before i got teleport that made me continue). Teleport was an addition on a later version btw, og Ys 6 didn't have it i played it after Origin, which has none of these problems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm more worried about the fact that I've got too many units I want to use and no room whatsoever for them. It's so annoying when that happens. I might have to bench me. But I don't wanna bench me, I've got an A support with the female bow armor and Lyon's animations upon promotion!

Interdimensional Observer Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 (edited) 26 minutes ago, Armagon said: If you're unfamiliar with why Shenmue would get thrown into PxZ, I've picked up a little knowledge of the game secondhand. Back in 1999, the game was considered very innovative in a few regards, such as having a very detailed ordinary world to go about doing ordinary things when you aren't fighting people with martial arts, and maybe a day/night cycle and NPCs on their own schedules as well. The first Shenmue was also hugely expensive to create, making it the most expensive game ever made at the time. $47 million spent, including marketing (inflation raises this to $76 million). These things resulted in the two games gaining a lot of notoriety at the time. The cost combined with the failure of the Sega Dreamcast console as a whole, meant Shenmue and its sequel were unable to create a lasting franchise, despite the second game ending on a cliffhanger. A few years ago, crowdfunding resulted in the cult-classicists finally getting their messianic dream of Shenmue 3. Except IIRC, the game was stuck hopelessly in the past according to reviewers, as if the year was still 2001, not 2019. Faithfulness to a fault one could say. Outside of the crowdfunded copies, the game had low sales. And worse, the director and other returning development team opted to leave the game ending on a cliffhanger again -as if there is any economic viability to a fourth title now. There is very likely little reason for a modern gamer to ever return to Shenmue in the present day, save for historical curiosity. The industry has come a long way in terms of explorable, interactive, and peaceful worlds. 15 minutes ago, Armagon said: "I only pick fights i can win" Actually, Reiji does say in EF once that if he has to gamble, it's never on the long odds, he plays it safe.

I remember seeing some hype for Shenmue 3 and then it just went away when it came out bad. And speaking of the storyline, i have heard that the main villain has yet to actually be defeated at any point, which is why Shenmue has no bosses in PxZ2.

Saint Rubenio Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 Kinda regretting giving me such a smug face. Every time I smile like that at my shitty-ass levels I dislike me a bit more. 6 minutes ago, Maof06 said: I told Gunnulf that he looks like a frog. Y E S ...Wait, you're not seriously starting all over from the start, are you!? Dude, if you just want to undo the one choice, you can go back a couple saves. The game keeps a save at the start of every chapter. Better redo that than the whole fucking game! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Rubenio Posted July 4, 2021 Share Posted July 4, 2021 NOOOOOOOOOOOOO NOT A FEMALE BRIGAND ANYTHING BUT A FEMALE BRIGAND I DON'T HAVE ANY ROOM IN THE TEAM!!! Just now, Armagon said: Alternatively, you're just hiding the pain at this point. I think every single mage in the team is better than me. Even the healer only needs a promotion and he'll be better than me. I'm level 15 and I've grown 3 points of magic and 4 points of speed. This is ridiculous. I'm gonna have to give me statboosters just to keep up. ...later, though. I'm in the mood for some Bloodstained now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
