Hey guys. I'm looking for a comfy 30+ hour but not shallow/bland

Turn based combat is boring

Pic is very related you lobotomite, unless you don't want turn-based combat.

Admittedly I was having nostalgic feels about pic related, so I said "probably isn't related" to see what reaction I'd get. Glad to hear it's a good choice.

Shadowrun Dragonfall or Hong Kong are pretty comfy and RPGs
Kind of sad their's no fourth game, I can't think of a more comfier isometric game other than maybe underrail, which you should also check out.

final fantasy 7.

If you enjoyed TTYD and you like turn-based combat try an older Pokemon game. The DS ones still hold up, especially Platinum and HG/SS.

Have you played Persona? P4 is good if you're looking for comfy, P3 can be a bit depressing, and P5 is too recent if you want something outside the last three years.

Actually, why don't you list some RPG's you've played and enjoyed.

Shadow Hearts: From the New World.

Don't know why this picture is so bad

>>387733512
Dude I know I'd love it because I love all the classics but I just can't put up with those graphics I'll just wait three years for episode one of the remake it's gonna be sick :^)

>The DS ones still hold up, especially Platinum and HG/SS.
dear god no, OP, don't listen to this guy. gen 4 is slow as hell and not a good intro to pokemon. try gen 3 (FRLG, Emerald) or even gen 5 (B2W2) instead.

What do you mean by shallow/bland? Mechanically or story wise? I love Dragon Quest VII but like all dragon quest games it doesn't aspire to much mechanically, very intentionally. The story is interesting and fun and it's definitely 30+ hours.

On the flipside is Bravely Default, which has some interesting gameplay and lets you choose difficulty level. The story is...yeah. 100%ing it takes more than 30 hours.

>>387733984
They're not that slow, I never noticed it. I mainly recommended the DS games for the physical/special split which is one of the best things to happen to the series. FR/LG and Emerald are perfectly fine games as well.

stick of truth is kinda close to paper marios combat system

There are others that I don't remember. My family owned most PS1/2 RPGs.

Obviously I don't have patrician tastes or anything. Just haven't tried much and nowadays I'm much harder to please.

>>387734267
Shallow/bland...just a combination of things. A game made by a passionate team with shit mechanics but a great story+characters would be fine with me. However, a game with fabulous mechanics but a lackluster everything else wouldn't. A bland RPG visually would prob look something like Two Worlds. Feat. generic fantasy setting and style, and it feels lifeless somehow. Sorry if that's a little vague.
>>387733810
Is that pic of Hong Kong? Looks good.

>>387728475
just play this again but exploit as many glitches as possible, there's a ton you can do you if you know what you're doing like flavio glitch

Skies of Arcadia.

>>387738262
>Morrowind, still my guilty pleasure
Why is that a guilty pleasure? It's a very popular game.

>most Personas (I wish more games had cool interactions with party members)
If you're looking for interactions with party members/forming a bond that both develops their character and their abilities in combat, you should definitely try out Trails of Cold Steel. It's on PS3 but recently got a PC release.
It's incredibly comfy, and definitely longer than 30 hours. The combat is turn-based but it's got a unique system behind it, and the gameplay is like a mix of the best parts about Persona and Tales (bonding with party members, party chat while you're exploring, link-system kinda like Tales of Xillia/2).
As you can probably guess from this wall of text, I can really recommend it.

>>387738668
Ah, sky pirates. Always had a thing for that, but for whatever reason never got far in Arcadia. I'll put it on the to-play list and see how it goes.

>>387739260
When you've played something a shit ton, it becomes more of a guilty pleasure and time sink. There's that and my embarrassing addiction to mods.

>>387739260
I remember trying the first Trails, being impressed by the world-building, and then it freezing up at the same exact point. Thanks for giving me the excuse to try Steel.

Oops, accidentally tagged you twice.

>>387740720
You can definitely start with Cold Steel anyway so don't worry. The other Trails games are still worth a playthrough if you end op hooked on Cold Steel. I just recommended it because you said you liked interaction with party members. The only Trails games released in English that have bonding like in Persona are the Cold Steel games.
