Odd posted:I just found out that in FF4 (FF2 in the US for awhile but not any more) that you could avoid the trap tiles in the secret dungeons, by casting float on your party. How did i not know this for 20+ years? I dunno. What other stuff have people found out about old games? how did you get past those dungeons without that? even on easytype, i think the summoner's cave would be pretty loving brutal if you had to heal every square.

Shibawanko posted:how many houses you can build also depends on how many points you scored in the action segments so if you really want to max out your level you have to farm enemies. the game doesnt tell you about this iirc maxing out your population doesn't extremely matter, though. you can squeeze one or two more levels out of it if you farm for points and watch for bridges, but you don't need those levels. the sim sections are mostly just there to build into areas to find new spells and other unlocks. it's weird but when you look at sim stuff from that era like SNES sim city and counter intuitive stuff like not building roads, stacking residential areas, only building a single fire dept, etc. it's actually about par for the course.

lol yeah, i've done this. i wish skyrim dark brotherhood had been a little better about that kind of thing. most of the quests, you don't even really know why you're killing the target and it's mostly easiest to just slit their throats. in oblivion, you can usually piece out what's going on, like when you drop the deer head on the guy and it's obviously his heir. it also had fun stuff like going back to find the guy who insults you at the beginning of the game and the agatha christie house.

Lunchmeat Larry posted:The guild questlines are one of the few points where I think Skyrim is inarguably a huge step down from Oblivion (I know they're both bad etc but there's fun to be wrangled out of Skyrim if you have the brain disease that makes you look for it, imo, whereas Oblivion was miserable) i think in the end i actually like oblivion better but it's basically unplayable without mods so i'll probably never go back to it.

CyberPingu posted:I really enjoyed Oblivion but it was my intro to TES so that might be why. oblivion was my first too which is probably why i liked it. i still liked skyrim tbh but as their games go on, it feels like they put less effort into the guilds and rely more and more on radiant quests. i swear every other quest in fallout 4 sends you to that one car factory with all the raiders.

I bought all five games for 25 bucks on sale once and made the mistake of starting with Arena. I actually got pretty far into it but then I saved in an impossible situation and my last save was way too far back.

Tender Bender posted:I think some of the ways Oblivion is "worse" make it more interesting than Skyrim in hindsight now that I understand both games are heavily flawed. The hazy, incredibly generic Fantasy realm, the potato-faced dopes who float around and awkwardly babble nonsense, the janky physics, it feels like you're in a dream. one thing that sort of works for oblivion somehow is that besides three main characters, it's like the same 10 voice actors who probably did half of it drunk in like one take. there's something about skyrim hiring way more people whose talent levels are all over the place that's off-putting. like wes johnson is there just doing his "WECOME... TO THE ARENA!" voice through a halfass filter as a dremora lord and lynda carter is doing the same, cardboard reading she always does for about half of the housecarls, but then there's like Enn Reitel and Gideon Emery giving 110 percent. also they told all the guards to do some kind of terrible accent.
