Inferno-sama posted:If it were possible, classic Mazinger would work. Gets stats, a couple more attacks and its main upgrade is the Jet Scrander, giving it flight and space capability. Oh yeah, it goes without saying that the way to make a game with OG1's power curve is to let nothing fly unless it's a terrible jet fighter.

Or a super robot's trashy jet mode you mainly use because it has one extra square of speed. On the other hand, OG1 had Cybuster.

It has a flight form. I'd say that Mazinger Z eventually getting the Jet Scrander is allowed, especially since OG1 does give you a few fliers. Weissritter, Cybuster, R-3 Powered...

I was being hyperbolic. The Gustwing is definitely one of the go-to flying units in OG1; my point is that the reason for this is it's one of only a handful of things that fly at all.

Samurai Sanders posted:I disagree. I think OG's blows away V and X and also Z3. Z2's are also better I think. I'd personally just pick one of X or V and go with that. I don't really see any reason to go back to the old games now that we have some actually being translated. If you can get a hold of the fan translated games those are worth a trip though. I think I started "modern" SRW on JP Alpha Gaiden without ever touching Alpha 1 and that was pretty cool.

Hopefully gonna be diving into L soon! Rascyc posted:Maybe, except they're not in English so. Unless we're talking about the GB games then uhhhhh, I dunno I'm just going to disagree! 2ndOGs has the best animations in the series. There's a website you can read for a line by line translation too! But also that's way more effort than just picking up V or X. I agree though, unless you really like SRW there's no reason to go back, and if you like SRW you've probably already been "back" as it were.

I wanna see Dairaioh so bad. So loving bad.

I just work with text files and spreadsheets. He does screenshots, movie recording, music tracking and linking, the whole nine yards. There's no understating how much work he puts into all of his SRW LPs, and the same goes to Caphi too.

Way I see it, V or X are probably the best choices for someone new to the franchise, but if you want to give it a try before investing money in the franchise than J is probably the best choice among the fan translated games as it's modern enough to have bypassed most of the quirks of the earlier parts of the franchise, has decent animations and a pretty decent series list*(even if SEED sticks out like a sore thumb as part of the game's setting), and perhaps most importantly due to being a GBA game it requires almost no effort to get it going *being a mixture of classics like Mazinger and oddballs like Tekkaman Blade drrockso20 fucked around with this message at 02:19 on Nov 26, 2018 |

Man it would be cool if they had a game where you researched different super robot tech and made your own units with your findings. Yeah I got a 5 man combining unit made of Super Alloy Z that runs on Getter rays what about it

Know that you bring it up I’m surprised we’ve never had a Combattler/Getter/Gravion style original where it’s a combination of multiple smaller vehicles.

My first thought when I read that was ship development in a 4X strategy game but for anime robots. edit: or hell just a 4X strategy game where you play the Inspectors or whoever.

I believe there is a series of Japan only games called Azito I think? where you manage an underground tokusatsu/giant robot lab but I have hardly seen any info about them.

Supremezero posted:Not of vehicles, which is what he was after. Unless you count the R-wing, which still leaves R-2 and R-3. Yeah, there have been plenty of robots that combine, but never a bunch of trucks/jets/trains that combine into a big robot. I don’t even think there has been anything like Gaogaigar where a robot has a bunch of auxiliary vehicles attach to it to make a slightly larger robot. That is such a basic super robot design concept that it’s weird they have never used it.

I imagine the reason they don't do a vehicle combiner is they're afraid people wouldn't enjoy playing as just a plane or a tank or whatever, even if it's only for a stage or 2.

Yeah its the sort of thing where you'd want it for the prologue stage and never again and just deploying autocombined/upgraded so it ends up being work for not much payoff. It'd probably be like Z2 Dancouga Nova with the weaker vehicle having a call in for the rest of the team with a Will gate on combining.

A Dancouga attack that starts another, smaller SRW map in which you play the components entering the enemy mech and breaking random internals while shooting down security. That can't have just been Nova, right?
