Also, JRPG's are a dying genre and thank loving god. Why yes I would love to play [sterotypical anime loner] who's trying to insert his penis into the 7 year old princess he's on a quest to save while an anime dog and old magic pervert join me for 40 hours.

Battle! Time for the fun part!

The single player campaigns are a lot more fun this time. It still seems pretty short for how much it costs. I don't really do the online stuff so if that's your bag you might love it.

I play Skyrim as a loving Everything. I'm a Warrior Mage Necromancing Healer Damage Dealer Makin' the Ladies Squealer Dragon Shout Never Doubt Dovahkiin Supreme. Except for sneaking, thievery and archery because gently caress that poo poo.

But I use the SPERG mod on PC so mileage may vary.

The middle part is pretty spot-on actually. I don't know what he's on about with the 7 year old princess and magical pervert, maybe he's only played RPG Maker games.

Also Skies of Arcadia is the only good JRPG ever made. Truth.

Gaming "journalism" is a joke, don't even bother with that poo poo. Don't pre-order games, wait for reviews and complaints by normal people to come out. If you have a half hour to waste, watch some nerd play it on youtube before you make up your mind to buy or not.

yeah but once you balance those spreadsheets and accomplish some tiny goal like annexing a small part of romania or w/e it feels so much more satisfying than "let me click through this hackneyed event chain" imo

you must have had a poo poo ck2 experience because i dont see a whole lot of event chains its more scheming and manipulation of individuals. its different from the more nation focused nature of other paradox games sure, but imo EU3 and 4 are way more annoyingly driven by events than ck
