Electric Phantasm posted:Were there some quests you had to return? It's been a bit, but I remember quest turning in automatically. As Zore said many of them require you to actually find the NPC to turn it in. Doing it in the Nopon tree was absolutely horrendous because they all look really similar AND they walk around. So you'd get a quest, complete it a day or two in real time later and have no idea where to give it in. One High Entia quest took me about 30 minutes of just WANDERING trying to find the right person to hand it in to. I get that it's old school but jesus mark it on the map because my characters would definitely know where that goddamn person is.

Does this game tell you which quests cancel after a point? This was the most annoying thing in the Trails Series, didn't go to that lighthouse early? Screw you.

Yeah, the ones that cancel will have an exlaimation point and there are a few pretty telegraphed points of no return.

If you mean Xenoblade, every quest that has a possibility of cancelling has a clock icon next to it and it's entirely plot related so if you don't advance the story they never fail.

How often does it turn out the JRPG lead is actually a dream/ a copy/ an artificial human as some big twist? Is it too mundane to have come out of a vagina?

Honestly it isn't that often overall. There's just some huge ones that sort of overshadow the genre. Like Final Fantasy went to that well in VII and X, but not really in any of the other games.

Endorph posted:I mean kishida was just the artist The whole part about girls liking a male character being a "betrayal" to the male audience so they'll just do guy on guy relationships instead was kinda interesting. I figured women would be more upset at a generic romance/self-insert guy being added. Maybe that's more of a western reaction?

It's Baldur's Gate II with amazing combat mechanics. And better class/skill customization. Its wonky bits can be forgiven. (Characters and writing are still better in BG II though)

What's the best camera setup for xeno? I zoomed the camera to close in behind Shulk which is fine, but the y axis feels wrong no matter what. There's also no penalty for death, and lovely quests are turned in automatically? Inspector Gesicht fucked around with this message at 22:13 on Nov 10, 2017 |

That's like the whole point of the reveal, he got super traumatized and built up this whole fake personality because of the experimentation and Zack's death and made himself think he was a SOLDIER and poo poo. Then during the reveal he has a breakdown and his personality radically changes as he rejects the fake persona and memories. And the implication is that this only happened because he was a 'failed experiment' after he volunteered for the Jenova cell stuff.

Technically, some of the Timed Quests aren't actually plot related, they're just Mutually Exclusive quests which aren't timed by the overall plot. They're usually very obvious though.

Trails actually does give fair warning for the non-hidden. You see that S/M/L by the sidequest title? That how long you have until they expire. If it's down to Short, it'll expire after the next plot event.

I put down FFVII and never picked it up again when I had to redo a minigame and that loving Rufus fanfare had been blaring for twenty minutes. Another factor against replaying is that while Midgar has a very strong presentation, you don't really have any options or choices in regards to customising your equipment.

Accordion Man posted:Tyranny is real good.Torment 2 was also real good, I really don' t understand the hate. Torment 2 has real awful character progression and combat. It honestly probably shouldn't have even been in the game and just been an adventure game. The point I was trying to make is that there was a wave of CRPGs after Witcher 3 and they all ended up divisive for one reason or another, and Divinity Original Sin 1 was in that wave and it had problems (writing). Divinity OS2 is the first of the next wave and they fixed many of the problems from the previous game. It's definitely no perfect game, as anyone who's played it to the end can attest but it's better than anything else in recent memory. Really pulling for Pillars of Eternity 2 myself.
