>>378937769
Name 3 games that do this. (You won't)
>>378937051
Suikoden 2
>>378936990
> You can brainwash and steal his waifu
>>378937593
Tales of Symphonia and Arc Rise Fantasia do this as bonus encounters in their Coliseums. I suspect it's a staple of the jrpg genre.
>>378937593
Lost Kingdoms 2
>>378937593
Smt secret bosses
>>378936990
>the time when it's done badly and the character is completely different for {no reason}
Prototype 2 did this
>MC and the rival team up for the boss
>they both get trashed
>>378937568
Dds?
>>378937593
Eternal Darkness, but it was the MC from a previous segment. It has a lot of interections between current and previous protagonists, Pious I guess too.
>>378937904
.hack
animal crossing
fire emblem awakening
final fantasy 2
>>378937593
Dark Souls 3 kinda
THAT IS NOT SOLID SNAKE.
>>378938018
Fuck Heller and Prototype 2
>>378937593
Trails of Cold Steel 2
>>378936990
Can't wait to see Yui try to win the 8man by skipping the bounds of the LN and in a game.
>>378936990
>MC of a previous game reappears in a sequel
>He's totally different and unlikable
>Neat music throughout the level
>You engage the boss
>vocals kick in
>>378938203
Akane was even worse, she went from the great mastermind in the first two games to some shit-tier waifu bait.
>>378938217
fucking nier automata was so good with that shit
>the boss attacks sync with the music
>close to final boss chamber
>ominous lighting and eerie unique music

>the evil overlord is a cute gril
>>378936990
>SNAAAAAAKEEE
>LIQUIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIID
I loved that bare chested fist fight more than any straight man should
>Equipped weapons and armor show up in cutscenes
>Completing an objective before an NPC asks will surprise them and save time
>Small, innocuous things like looking at notes or talking to other NPCs leads to alternative choices/dialogue in important moments
>You can change the appearance of equipment while still keeping the stats
>Options that allow you to toggle things like helmets
>Characters acknowledge odd or outside of the box behavior/thinking, such as throwing objects around a room or using a hidden entrance
>Sountracks that consists of one main theme that is remixed for different themes and moments
>Music that syncs up with player actions, like lyrics kicking in at an important part of a fight
>Romance options that can interact with other scenes, such as other characters acknowledging how much time you spend together
>>378938217
>Final boss music is the opening theme with vocals
>>378937918
Name 10 (十)(DIES)(TEN)(दस)(عشرة)(দশ)(дecять)(テン)(ਦਸ)(ZEHN)(DEK) Games that do this.
>Story fight that you're supposed to lose and is made extremely difficult
>You can still win
>Story drastically changes or you get rewarded for winning
Pretty sure Chrono Trigger does this with Lavos. Any other games?
>>378938504
>Serious game with some hokey moments
>The final boss is a woman pretending to be a little girl
>Idol music starts playing out of nowhere
>>378938715
WHAT GAME
>>378938562
>Equipped weapons and armor show up in cutscenes
LBX a best
>>378938715
>>378938813
Well, Resident Evil 7 tries to be serious and has some hokey shit. Also, the main villain looks like a little girl but is actually a woman/BOW. No idol music though.
>>378938813
Seriously? MGS Peace Walker
>>378938562
>mc uses the gun you equipped to shoot someone
>ammo counter is down one round
>>378938709
yeah, in megaman x6 the reward for skipping straight to the final levels is that you only have to play that part of the game
>shit gets serious
>battle theme stops interrupting the area theme
>>378938562
Everything right here is golden
>>378938639
>No X
Shit you hate in vidya?
>Playing Nioh
>Only use spear and axe, never even touch swords past the tutorial
>Every single cut scene has the character using a single katana
I get that slashing someone in a cutscene would be difficult to do if someone was using a spear, but come on.
>>378939080
>battle theme keep interrupting the great area theme
Why is this shit allowed to exist?
Diablo 2.
>>378939302
>Thing you do in battle changes the battle theme
>It happens during the boss theme too
I love Xenoblade Chronicles, but fuck that shit.
>>378937865

>forced minigames
>milked spinnoffs before final game
>>378937051
The most popular class from torchlight 1 became the villain in torchlight 2. Don't remember if that game was actually good or not
>Final boss is a party member
>>378937860
I like manipulative girls.
>>378937593

>>378936990
>Golden Sun 2
>The entire party from the first game shows up

Xenoblade chronicles
>>378942883
>>378943479
thanks
>Boss starts using your own weapons against you
>And the weaknesses to go along with it
Nearly shat bricks when Wily yelled out TIME SLOW during his fight in Powered Up.
>Beat a boss so hard you break his otherwise indestructible sunglasses, force him to drop his spaghetti and run away
>cutscene shows him leaving on his own accord because he's bored
Fuck you resi 5
>>378940175
>final boss is a real person
>final boss is also a protagonist
>One of the first encounter is an overpowered ennemy that KO you for the story sake.
>You can actually beat him and have a secret cutscene
It's like a kind and gentle headpat from the devs . :3
>>378942883
She's going to be in the sequel, all alone, isn't she? They'll probably kill her off too.
>>378937921
Most Tales games do it. Symphonia's isn't even that good. Abyss and Xillia 2 have really good ones.
>>378941356
>Persona 5 or most Atlus games in general
>Nier Automata or most Platinum developed/Taro written games in general
Granted Taro's writing while full of character is kind of shit
>>378945462
>tfw still haven't played these
At least this means there's still some hope for the industry.
