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.

I really cannot imagine English speaking overseas sales are still much of anything in the grand scheme of things? I still find this direction really strange if it's really targeting the west.

Every annoying SR point except like one or two is basically solving orgone cloud. The others are just usual movement tricks. Oh and like two manipulating allied AI to not kamikaze. Man that poo poo sucked. loving fighter jets! I think I took a month long break soon after that mission.

I always do a morale skill in the early game to get things going faster especially to help get kills to unlock the Ace bonuses depending on the game. You get so much PP eventually so you'll run out of poo poo to buy, don't worry.

I'll be the voice of dissent and say No, MD is not worth it if you're not into the OG cast/mechs. The translated script is really just awful too. Why not just play Original Generations if you're not sure? I guess the partial English in MD would be at least helpful but man that script was so unintelligible most of the time.

Samurai Sanders posted:I wonder if they'll be any major difference between the two versions? there was a resolution, and I think frame rate difference on the PlayStation 4 versus the Vita, but for this kind of game shouldn't the PlayStation 4 in the Switch be close enough so there's no difference? PS4 is quite a bit more powerful than switch but the switch undocked can still output 720p so there shouldn't be any big issues. It'll be on Bamco's side to not mess it up at the end on the day so who knows really.

I don't think I ever liked any of the GGG attacks that didn't involve its final attack or Goldion, until Genesic and I suspect that'll be the same here.

I feel like that just reduced the amount of mistakes you made, similar to how support attack/defend required the same elevations in both directions or whatever it was at one point. It's just the unit (enemy and allied) and encounter design. If there's anything the harder games in the series have in common it's usually a combination of crap like actually threatening map attacks, high HP regen+a lot of hp on bosses multiple times per run (as opposed to just once ala Dark Brain), enemies that can actually dodge attacks and you can't spam seishin to counter it, etc. Something like A Portable takes this an extra mile by giving you so many godawful attacks too, let alone the HP bloat. It's whatever these days. Even un-upgraded runs don't put up much of a fight at times cause the enemy stats can be so depressed at times. The Ex-Hard modes were kind of neat in that aspect even if it was just number bloat. Dunno how SRW X's hard mode panned out though. Rascyc fucked around with this message at 21:54 on Jan 30, 2019 |

I think I am misremembering how that worked in the really old games and have just gotten too used to having a nearly all-flying units lately. That or I am confusing my memories with how you couldn't select attacks and Great Mazinger would GREAATA BOOSTAH the tiniest of things in Alpha Gaiden.

I hope they used some of the same people again for the translating (glances over at you-know-who-who-is-probably-under-nda) Cause there is no way I am finishing X just on the gameplay and series lineup alone!

The Gespenst looks straight up awfully implemented this time though. The protag I'll grant you but without any way of knowing how much they integrate them into the early parts of the story it's also kind of an Eh Okay for me. Basically I'm not giving up my Switch version, I'll just wait.

Play-Asia usually has responsive customer support, it's the one thing they're good at when they're gouging the poo poo out of you. At least in my experience anyway. Your bank saying it's not their fault is not very helpful though, they should at least be able to see the charge and whether or not they approved/rejected it. If they never saw the charge then it never made it to the bank and you have to investigate on yours and PA's side. It smells like a browser problem if PA is shrugging too.

I basically just pick a series in every SRW and follow that one, one way or the other and I've definitely picked Gundam 00, Turn A Gundam, and Unicorn Gundam in my time.

Iczer would be my vote. I want to see the Dancouga fist bump again but mostly it just makes me sad to think that attack only occurs in a middle installment somewhere. Very surprised we haven't seen Dendoh in so long, same with Tekkamen. Escaflowne is one I see a lot of people mention elsewhere.

Reiska posted:Someone on Gamefaqs completed an expert mode + no upgrades + no TacP spending run already and posted a tier list thread for it. So far it's fine, nothing really eye popping. IDK how I feel about expert, wish I could re-enable the SR points sometimes but that might be a bridge too far if it were possible. ImpAtom posted:If you're willing to use the TacP items then a lot of the limitations of no upgrades are lessened or removed. It actually is pretty fun to shuffle items around for greatest effectiveness. --- Incidentally while it's on my mind the Gespenst has grown on me, the neutron beam animation is pretty slick.
