Alys-1993

I’m very green :-)

Aria of Sorrow and Order of Ecclesia are must plays, after that pick and choose from the others based on if you think you’ll like them. Dawn is quite grindy, and CotM is the most difficult (excluding OoE hard mode)

Exegootioner. Sprite edit of a Hoodlum-type enemy with the head replaced with a Slime and the color palette changed to match

An aberrant form,,

PSIII is so damn weird. I wish it was worthwhile to play because it’s amazing conceptually

It’s an okay port of some really old arcade games, but not much else. Funnily enough, it’s the only GBA game I physically own rn. I just have it to fill the 2nd slot on my DS lol

2019? They’re STILL doing that and it’s even less funny than when it started

That’ll be hell to search through if you don’t organize it day 1 lmao

I think people who say stuff like this are simply too unmotivated to deal with even the tiniest bit of friction in their games. This statement isn’t surprising though, given the direction they took with later TES and Fallout games.

Yuzo Koshiro never misses

The AW2 version of Jess specifically. Having weak infantry units means you’re forced to use your expensive stuff intelligently.

Aesthetically, probably Kanbei? Yellow comet units just look the coolest, tbh

Open world games peaked 26 years ago with Legend of Mana and barely anyone has been able to match it

a genius with his thinking cap on declaring "haha is my PS2 laser dirty? what is this crap", dismissively pointing his thumb at the soundtracks to drakengard and evergrace, which conveniently have an arrow pointing to them labeled "(literal coolest music ever)"

never trust gamers example #38403482

Crit rate only goes off of base speed, not actual speed iirc

I hate how much Hippeux’s grown on me. How does he get to do that

The ignorerrrr

Bloodstained CotM is perfection, but every other project of theirs has something that ticks me off. They consistently make the most intuitive controls you’ll ever experience and then throw in some second-rate NES platformer nonsense just to fuck with you

Pretty much! The other stats still do something, no matter how minimal. AGI still adds a point of evasion for every 2 points you have, for instance

By far my favorite part of FF1 is that they forgot to program any real function for INT. Iirc nobody even knows its full intended function, bug fix projects basically have to guess on what it does

What are you saying bye for? Gender just got here!

Oh, it’s bait? You’re really good at it lol

Out of the games you show here, I’ve only ever had difficulties with SotN. (Inverted castle is cool, but not particularly fun?)

Interested to hear what you’ve been struggling with for the others

Sonic and Tails sitting behind a waterfall. The water appears transparent thanks to blurring. Sonic stares at the camera, clearly impatient with the fact that I’m fiddling around with aesthetics instead of playing the game

Finally bothered to find a good enough CRT shader for retroarch. Won’t matter for most games, but damn if it doesn’t look cool when it does

Would love to know the music played here

An insignificant but absolutely insane piece of misinfo I’ve seen multiple times is the claim that Mystic Knights can’t use magic during battles in the famicom version of FF3. The magic command is right there! You can make your ghost knight cast weak healing spells in battle!

Atlus are going to make a world where Persona 5 lasts forever…

Yeah, same. Pokemon has been kinda mid in recent years, but people always seem to blow it out of proportion and criticize things about them that are actually decent?

The most baffling of which is criticism of the designs of newer mons, which only ever range from really cool to delightfully stupid

Do Pokemon still spawn like crazy in the switch 2 version or has that been patched?

A screencap of Mario Party DS. Luigi is standing in a dark void. A text box is below him with the following written within: “It would be best to offer a formal apology for what you’ve done.”

Geodude’s always been my default “I need a guy RIGHT NOW” pick because they just squash most of the early gym battles
