>turn-based game which is on all platforms
Gonna be honest Anon, I have no ideas. Outside of Disgaea I couldn't believe an RPG or tactic game could have DLC-locked characters.

>>360986658
I had Fen from Steamworld Heist in mind
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r-t6LUFj49k
Considering the rest of the cast is steam-powered and not electric they, other than the captain, don't trust him.

And to be fair to the developers they did him with some other DLC quite a few months after it came out to bring it to more systems.

>>360986549
This shit applies to action games too.

I CAN'T STAND THIS SHIT
It doesn't happen often, but it pisses me the fuck off when it does. Especially in things like monster hunter where some shitter (be it clownsuit fag, your ai shitter buddy, or even some enemy tiny shitter monster) gets the last hit in, completely killing the mood.

Fuck hidden speed modifiers.

>>360989630
I never used it because of how SP works. Shit that requires leaving the game in sleep mode or literal pay-to-win microtransaction shit isn't something I want to use in a turn-based RPG.
I only spent time on Norende because of the unique equipment and the fact that it was the only way to get Specials.

>Boss is immune to fucking everything and constantly spams area of effect and stunning moves.

Both Baldur's Gate games are guilty of this.

>game has a ton of interesting status effects
>regular enemies die in 1-2 hits and bosses are immune to them all
SMT tries to fix this but it's still kind of guilty. It's focused on buffs/debuffs like pokemon but a lot of the status effects are tedious instakills or "you can't play anymore"

>>360992075
>run into literally any enemy mage

>>360992205

This was one thing Bravely Default had going for it. A status ailment build was actually fun and viable because bosses weren't immune to them all.

The Last Remnant

>Fighting final boss.
>Feels almost impossible.
Grandia 3, fuck you, the whole game was a moderate challenge and then suddenly at the end you become impossible to even beat the floating ball of bullshit.

>>360992835
Damn, I preordered LTR, nobody knew what the fuck was going on for the first 1-2 months. The information that's going around now was pieced after a lot of collaboration. I remember how much people hated it on release. Everyone struggled so they grinded, but that broke the game even more. You have to really efficiently know what you're doing from square one.

>>360982469
Grandia is dead. The fella who made Grandia is dead.

What a shitty time to be alive. That had the best turn based system...

>>360992593
I still haven't played Bravely Default. Is it worth giving a go? Everyone seemed to hate it but at the same time the price slowly climbed up

>>360990115
If it really bothers you, try to beat the game at a much lower level or something. I was able to beat it at fifty with a team of faggot snowflakes, and having Bravely Seconds almost feels like a necessity.

>>360993201
No idea why the price would be rising. Is it rarer? That's some shit.

It's okay, though. If you really like Final Fantasy 3 and 5, you might be into it. The brave/default system is a lot of fun.

>>360993201
The gameplay systems are really good and it's probably worth trying it for them alone. The big problem with it is it literally repeats dungeons and bosses in the late game.

>>360993485
I have a feeling the repetition of dungeons and bosses was just a faggy way of letting you play with all the classes and experiment.

Beyond being part of the narrative, it's the only reason I can think of them doing that.

>>360993485
It's a fucking shame that part turns off so many people. The penultimate and final boss are so amazing holy shiiiiit.

I liked it. The music is top notch and it's certainly a lot better than the main Final Fantasy series has been for quite some time.

It does have flaws. There is a lot of repeated boss battles (though I personally didn't find it all that tedious) and the game can be rendered trivial by using certain overpowered job combinations. I maintain it's fun despite that, especially if you're a fan of the SNES-era Final Fantasy games.
