Necro can summon exploding corpses and bone spiders.

I liked pretty much all of the dungeons in the original game design wise but I couldn't tell you what plot happened in any of them except maybe the first one and the pyramid

I came around a bit earlier on Hugo playing with him on Nightmare but on any other difficulty he's a snoozefest. But the 3rd char is so worth it lol

Riviera is like an RPG with VN elements right? Maybe I'll check it out

From what I'm seeing Yggdra Union just has an insane amount of interlinking systems

Riviera is like a combination RPG and adventure game, you spend points that you get from battles to move around and activate stuff in the dungeons.

I just got to the part where ragou gets killed by yuri in tales of vesperia. This is still fairly early in the game yea?

That's the end of act 1 out of 3 I'm pretty sure

it's awesome bc it's the most obtuse and random stat- and party-wise any of the sagas I've played while you also have functionally no control over the battles. You just pick a target and give a general guidance for the kind of attacks you'd like to do and that's it. It's the most devoted game they've made to the JRPG gambling ethos. It owns. It suffers deeply from the ps3 brown curse though and the cities are super tiny for how cool they look in the preview images on the map.

You kinda get control if you save up whatever no is called in that game...at least control to do the op attacks lol

I'm finally playing Octopath Traveler on gamepass and it's way better than I expected. If I'm loving the first 10 hours does it pretty much stay good the whole time?

Depends on what you like about it. The dungeons stay the same, the bosses stay good and the story and characters also stay the same (as in, they don't interact outside of the scenes in the bar). I think the final boss is worth the trip but I also took like a year long break in between doing each of the sets of 4 characters.

Went back to Etrian Odyssey V to do the 6th Stratum but I've forgotten all my party synergy so instead I went with something simpler and started a new game of Etrian Odyssey Nexus.

7 hours in and having a blast going through forest maps with my party of Hero/Imperial/Gunner/Sovereign/Zodiac. I made 1 of every other class too since they give you a passive exp accessory way early.

EO Nexus might be too loving big lol. Entered the second shrine expecting a short 1 floor dungeon in between islands like the first shrine and it has 5 drat floors. Still sick as hell, can't wait to finally make it to the next set of labyrinths. This game must have over 60 floors in it, I've already been to 19

but i loaded up the game to check nd went with

hero/harbinger (afterimage spam hero and passive healing, harbinger just for phys attack/def and hp up)
pugilist/ninja (heavy bind combo pugilist, ninja for status atk up)
nightseeker/landsknecht (ailment exploit nightseeker, landsknecht for some passives)
zodiac/medic i named jughead (straight up zodiac poo poo, i gave him medic for group refresh/unbind and a free skill point)
arcanist harbinger (aoe ailments, harbinger for ailment increase miasma and status atk up)

Nice...sounds like it's time to continue the playthrough.

Kind of, but it also has a bunch of points where certain side quests become in completable. Usually after a set of wyrm hunt quests or set of quests for the duke
