my strategies for Pokemon TCG Generation 1
--
level 24 Magmar is a good haymaker. can do early damage with fire punch. flamethrower does a solid 50 damage and its energy cost is manageable with judicious use of fire punch. technically not as good as Hitmonlee, but its fire typing allows it to easily sweep grass type trainers.

level 32 Ninetales is the mvp of a fire deck. lure is a built-in gust of wind. and its fire blast does a whopping 80 damage. and it doesn't need more than one evolution, that from a bulky 50 HP vulpix.
--
Blastoise has the pokemon power, rain dance, which allows it to stockpile enough water energy to make use of a 60 damage attack. both Gyarados and Blastoise have a good 100 HP to match their decent attacks.
--
Kadabra has recover, which is a built-in super potion. also has super psy, a 50 damage attack with no downsides. can evolve into Alakazam, which has a worse attack, but the infamous pokemon power, damage swap.

level 17 Haunter avoids damage with transparency and its nightmare attack does damage and puts your opponent to sleep. and it has zero retreat cost and to top it off, a respectable 50 HP. it's a great Mr. Mime counter.

level 60 Mewtwo is a good haymaker, but it's a promotional card so you can only have one during the game.
--
i also use Scyther and Chansey as initial pokemon. Scyther has no retreat cost and can be used to attack in a pinch, Chansey is a huge wall that has only a retreat cost of one.
--
gambler is good for stall decks and for thwarting stall decks.

That's kinda a hard one... Probably depends on what you're in the mood for. If you just want to casually game and finish then probably RE4. If you want to spend a bit more time actually learning the game and gitting gud to pull off sick combos while gaming then DMC 3.

The latest Atelier game is coming out on the 20th. I like how the main character is a cake. It seems to have pivoted to action which makes me say "meh" as I liked the relaxed turn-based stuff. I guess it will play likes a Tales game?

Glad to hear you're enjoying it! I know it gets a bad rap from some people, but I have to say after having played all the armored cores before it, the ease of controls wasn't at all to its detriment. It managed to make itself quite fun to fly around participate in high paced battles while still keeping some sense of grounding to the mechs.

Looks cool but the gameplay seems slow.

It is kind of slow, but the girls are nice. The combat isn't amazing, but the skill system was kind of cool. There's a dating system, too. Play it for the girls.

>Conception II
Gameplay was hideously boring to me, but again cute girls and there's something like dating. Good for escapism. That one gif with the little chibi-like girl with the fan that detaches and spins away is from this. But man, the dungeons really dragged on and weren't engaging at all.

>Etrian Oddysey
I like DRPGs but EO was too hardcore for me. The remakes and newer games are a lot less difficult with their story mode, but this one doesn't have that.

I've tried some of these games in the past on PSP and found them incredibly hard, as someone who is decent at other rhythm games like Taiko and Project Diva and always plays them on the highest difficulty. Maybe the learning curve is just steeper. But this doesn't seem like a good choice for a beginner to the genre.

>Etrian Odyssey
They're pretty good, would definitely recommend. I don't think these games are particularly hard, it's just that they offer you a huge amount of freedom in character building, and as a consequence it's possible to screw yourself over, so you need to be somewhat meticulous with skill point allocation and all that. You can read up on different classes and skills on wikis or GameFAQs, or if you ask here I can also give you some general pointers.

Banner of the maid is really good. I heard about it years ago but only bought it on sale recently. As far as srpgs go, I think its one of the better ones I've played. Usually indie srpgs are too easy and braindead but that's not the case here. General mode is very difficult and almost too strict at times, which makes it feel satisfying to play. (atleast if you're doing a no death run) The characters also have their own skills which makes each one feel unique in their own way. (for example the girl holding a bird has the ability to move another turn after using her heroic action, very broken)

Only gripe is that you can't play as the british or the prussians. The girl in pic related is very cute, probably the cutest, but I can't recruit her. Also apparently she is based off a real woman who disguised herself as a man to fight in the prussian army. She fought and died in the line of battle, I would have saved her.

Playing Sanabi and so far it's been pretty great. Not the hardest thing ever in terms of platforming, but it keeps you on your toes for some sections, and the pace of it is quite speedy. Think about it a really good hookshot in a 2D game you've played and then based the entirety of the game around the physics and combat with that. You grapple towards enemies to kill them, and you avoid them with propelled grapples that phase you through harmful objects. It may sound simple but it's got a good variety of boss fights that actually are pretty fun and gave me a bit of a challenge.

The story so far from what I've seen is one of revenge and corporate conspiracy, fitting for a game coming out of South Korea. The main city that this game takes place in is Mago City which has come under attack by the terrorist Sanabi, and whilst inside of the city looking for the terrorist several oddities pile up as the city's not what it seems at first glance. I'd get into more spoiler territory but I'm not really done with the game yet. There could be a bit more but I think I'm at or right next to the final area since there's not much left to climb. My prediction right now entering upper Mago city is that with the light theme of personality digitization and talk about human mimics, alongside the main sidekick girl supposedly avenging her father who was working against Mago city, that the MC is actually a robot mimic of her dad. And that with the false memory manipulation he's been given a vision of the roles reversed in which his daughter actually died in a terrorist attack by Sanabi and he survived. Which is probably the reason for Mari wanting us to play the harmonica so much. The MC being a robot would also make sense since he's not able to pass through anti-robot zones, having too much robotic content in his body. So far I think the story has been pretty well written with a bit of ugh's with the localization in the EN subs. Not too sure about what I think about what Mago corp is doing yet though.

Playing Yes Woman's Land right now, and it's okay.

So I was mostly right about my predictions. Only real difference I guess would be that maybe the scenario wasn't the same IRL since that false memory was implanted there by scientists to have a more driven replica. The process by which they detail this is pretty nice expository format where you're traversing your memoryscape. But I finally figured out what the Mago group was up to and it does sort of make sense why they did what they did. They were trying to overthrow the Royal government of the nation with personality cloned bots that are like yourself, but their scheme was leaked so they burned everything to hide the evidence so that they could maybe spare relatives and such. It kind of makes me wonder how bad Mago were, since while they are evil company A in a way, the Royalty doesn't seem much better. Mira is cute and great. I'm on probably the real final chapter now and I've heard its pretty tough, so I'll see for myself just how hard it can be.

Nvm fuck Mago, they made Mari cry. Man, that was a great ending. Glad I didn't skip through the story because it's quite emotional and epic at the end. Best Korean work I've seen since watching Parasyte. Redemption of innocence is always nice and heartwarming to see. General is best dad.

I've been quite bored recently and would like to play through some classic games that I haven't tried, with Final Fantasy being the first. However there are many games and I don't know where to start. I recieved some advice last year which suggested starting with 1, 5 or 10 - but 5 is apparently offputting due to being too lighthearted - and focusing on 6, 7 and 10 apart from that. 8 is also apparently quite good but very weird.

 No.141397>>141544

>>141394
Story-wise they're all isolated from each other, so that's not an issue. You should probably see if you can "tolerate" something like Final Fantasy 4 with its pixel graphics. If you can't, then move on to 7. If you can, but you find the story uninteresting, then try 6.
Never played the NES stuff apart from 1 very briefly.

I started going through the FFs I hadn't played, starting with 1 and it was still fun. And if you get through those the later ones should only be better as you see how they progressed.

Thank you guys. I've started with 1 and yeah the pixel graphics are fine. It's more similar to Pokemon - I grew up with Yellow and Crystal - than I imagined. I'll try 6 afterwards. I recieved FF10 as a Christmas gift when I was quite young but thought I wouldn't be able to understand it because I hadn't played the previous 9 and didn't know that they were standalone.
