Jazerus posted:legend is a little obtuse unless you dig into gamefaqs and i have seen negative opinions about it, but i'm not sure anyone at all actually hates secret or trials. I think the general consensus of Secret of Mana is that the great sprite art and music are a plus, but the game itself is kind of a mess thanks to the SNES CD never existing. MAKE ME RUN UP THAT MOUNTAIN AGAIN, MOTHERFUCKER. I DARE YOU.

Okay where is the switch I need to hit in Ch 4 Nevarl Fortress? You'd think the bad guy would welcome me through the door because it's clearly a trap.

I know they weren't going to change the plot much, but I was really hoping they'd do something with the stuff from the prequels. It would have been nice for someone to tell Hawkeye the girl he's crushing on is his aunt

And if you go to Class 4 with Kevin he has a solo boss fight so he'll outlevel you regardless. Best to make peace with it now.

Mr. Locke posted:The heavy implication is that Angela is the daughter of the True Queen and the Hero King. I don't think the game ever directly spells it out though but it alludes to it a couple times (Which is weird because in most other ways the game's pretty ham-fisted about every other twist-shaped plot point almost immediately, with only the Darkshine Knight being handled with any kind of tact.). There's a prequel for the DS that ALSO refuses to come out and say that, but does add in a whole subplot where Flamekhan had another kid, who he disowns for being on the other side of the game's conflict. She has Hawkeye and apparently dies, so Flamekhan takes him in and tells him he's a random orphan he found. It's a weird decision.

gandlethorpe posted:Yeah, it's pretty convoluted, especially since it never comes into play again. And don't forget the convenient way you get the squeaky hammer. Whatever, I love this game's goofy plot. The thing I miss the most is that you can't use the hammer as an active item anymore, so you actually have to heal status effects instead of just using it twice really fast

Yeah, if you were going to remake SoM, I think you should take the opportunity to remake all the stuff that got cut from the original. Then you can hype the hell out of it as "a classic game that is FINALLY getting the full game we never had!" But doing what they did was probably cheaper.

The original assets aren't floating around because they never got made. You'd need to go back and actually make those story beats that are missing, like the Dryad dungeon. That's why you'd do this with a game you think could make actual money and not a phone port you're halfassing

You can revert everything but it requires a special item that's only available at the end of the game. For all intents and purposes, you pick one class and stick with it.

I think the worst team is one with a shitload of redundancy. Something like LD Duran, LD Kevin and LL Charlotte, or DL Hawkeye, DD Riesz and DL Charlotte.

Heithinn Grasida posted:I think Warrior Monk could be a really good hybrid support character on a team with MP hungry characters with good melee, like Nomad or Rogue. And Kevin is still Kevin, so he’s going to be doing a lot of damage regardless. Unfortunately healing just doesn’t really seem very important compared to just doing more damage. I used WM for my first playthrough (Nightblade Hawk as lead with Star Lancer Riesz were the rest of my team) and it felt like a very solid team. Would recommend.

sigher posted:So who the gently caress is Anise and how does she fit into the game at all? I don't recall any mention of her until the post-game and it's kinda strange she just appears and is like, "Yo I'm super evil, have nothing to do with anything else that's happened but come on and fight me." She's an easter egg, think of her like if you were playing a Final Fantasy game and Zeromus popped up after you beat the game and asked to fight.

Taear posted:Is it my imagination or did the game have a lot of springy yellow things before the remake? They occupy quite a bit part of my memory of the game but you barely see them in this. There were some that got removed, but ally they usually did was shoot you up in the air so you could see some of the world map. Now that there's an actual world map you can open up, most of them lost their purpose. Mr. Locke posted:Heroes is just a bad game. FFXII: Revenant Wings is a more successful take on the RPG RTS strategy and if that's what you're hankering for, play that instead. The RTS parts are extremely basic and can be completed by anyone who can memorize a small number of Pokemon-style unit-counters-unit matchups and the few times Heroes tries to throw a wrinkle in that it doesn't make it HARD, it just makes it SLOW. SLOW-er, rather, since Slow is the default speed anything in Heroes happens at. I think the only reason anyone would ever play it is if they absolutely loved the characters from Trials and, well... that's not exactly the game's strong point.

Taear posted:The actual upgrades are just "get the thing from the next town a little early" though like I mentioned. Still nothing exciting. I went through and boiled down a walkthrough for you. Here's what happens in the game once you get Flammie. Go up Joch's mountain Go to the Palace of Darkness Go up Joch's mountain Go to the Gold Island Go up Joch's mountain Go to the Moon Palace Go up Joch's moutain Go to Tanisca Go up Joch's mountain Go to the Tree Palace Out of the eight spirits in the game, four of them are obtained by running up the same mountain to talk to the same NPC. SD3 only sends you through the same dungeon twice, it definitely doesn't have the balls to ask you to traverse the same mountain, completely unchanged, five consecutive times.

Alxprit posted:I think the balloon airship on the Nevarl side is probably goofier than the eagles carrying the beastmen. Like, it's like they heard the word "airship" and thought oh, I know exactly how to do that! The part that makes Nevarl's airship so funny to me isn't even the balloons themselves, it's the way that the ship bounces up and down from them like it's attached by bungie cords.

Taear posted:Does SoM (assuming you mean secret of mana) count as a remake? Wasn't it just a remaster? Generally, a remaster uses the original assets, but polished up. FFX is a really good example, they are using the same engine and models from 2001 but with much higher resolution textures. SoM, like SD3, was remade in a new engine.

Sapozhnik posted:ehh, being too overt with the nostalgia-milking would be kind of tiresome. One of the things that I like the most about FF6 is the art style of its world and characters, so I think it would be cool to see them use modern hardware to fully realize Amano's vision of weirdo machines, baroque architecture and everyone having 20000 trinkets on their clothes. On the other hand, I also don't think Square understands why FF6 is good. They'd probably make Cid dying mandatory.

King Bahamut posted:I’m playing through the game with my five year old and having a blast, but is there any part where it opens up and becomes slightly less linear? I just got Flammie and filled out the map and it seems like there really aren’t any side challenges, better shops, sequences to try differently etc. Should I just keep heading for the star at all times? Even “hidden” chests just cough up 2 candy The part where you get Flammie is as non-linear as the game gets. The branching is really in the selection of characters and classes.
