SC2, the best jrpg series ever made
>>388347583
I guess I just threw in the towel on Disgaea 5, that's kind of a jrpg.
Beat the game, grinded to 9999 multiple times, and hit a brick wall on Baal and didn't want to grind another 15-20 hours in carnage item world to beat him.
Looking forward to playing through FF12 again, but waiting until I see a good deal on the game or it gets announced for PC.

Though I will probably beat none of them.
>>388347583
I'm looking forward to Dragon Quest XI
>>388347583
Can that Code Vein game finally be a JRPG even though it's a soulslike for having big eyed animu charas?
>>388351663
>Stranger of Sword City
You definitely won't beat this. Requires like 120 hrs of grinding. It was fun for the first 60 or so though. Then the content dried up before the final final mega ultra boss that requires lvl99 to beat
Playing DQ11 and looking forward to Sen 3.
>>388347583
Time for SE to rape more of Square's cherished series for cash, eh?
>>388347583
Replaying EOIII with an all farmers party cause I'm hyped for EOV.

>>388347583
XC2, but I'll be keeping my eye on the Secret of Mana remake as well.
Xenoblade Chronicles
>>388347583
Not playing any right now, but I am looking forward to XC2 and Cold Steel III - although the latter will basically be irrelevant to me past fervently looking up plot spoilers until like late 2018.
Currently been playing EO2U on and off for about 2 weeks. Looking forward to and will switch to either zwei 2 or ys 7, whichever comes out first
Z.H.P if that counts. It's a NISA game so I know there's gonna be a load of side dungeons and post-game but doubt I'll touch them. The gameplay is generally alright but the rapid item degradation is just so unfun, can't cope it. I'll see the end because the story is good and the sentai aesthetic is GOAT but that'll be it
>>388355404
ZHP had good ideas, but making special moves cost significant chunks of stamina was complete ass. Thankfully they nailed down the mechanics in Guided Fate Paradox
Guys I am thinking of playing Fantasia. Is it worth playing?
>>388347583
Tales of Berseria. I like the story but it's so damn repetitive. Almost done at least. Might start playing the Xeno games after.
Is Tales of Symphonia a good entry into the series and is the PC port the best way to play it?

The EX dungeon / Heavenly Steppes is pretty good. Farming those sweet Void scraps for crafting.
>>388357957
having to use katz souls for everything in heavenly steppes tilted me too much; I know there are layouts where you get a ton of them but fuck why push that shitty currency any further. Which is too bad, I thought the general idea of timetrial battles was pretty fun.
>>388358470
Just reset the dungeon (leave and come back), you'll get to one of the Katz levels in a few minutes. I'm currently sitting on over 1300 of them.
>>388351382
There's nothing to get, the story is yuri fanfiction.

Not really playing anything atm but I have the fantranslation of trails of Zero on my backlog forever now.
Looking forward to the .hack G/U remakes and Cold Steel 3.
>>388358883
There literally was no yuri in what I played though. Pretty disappointing.
>>388357957

Playing that many games let alone that many RPGs is a poor way to go about things.

Fuck Square.
>>388360301
You can play Cold Steel first, but if you can do play TitS first.
I trying to play ff7 again for the 4th time but I think I'm just going to quit. I just can't get into no matter how hard I try. I played ff9 for the first time last year and loved it. Maybe I should try 6 or 8 next.

>Persona5 on rpcs3
How playable are you finding it? Does stuff in your image happen often?
>What are you playing?
Cold Steel 1 on PC. The difference between Vita and PC is noticable to say the least.
>What JRPG are you looking forward to?
Cold Steel 3. And probably 2 on PC, despite owning a Vita version. I'm now in the capital in CS1 and getting some nasty flashbacks of that slideshow I experienced on Vita so I kinda don't want to ruin it for myself. Plus turbo button seriously spoiled me.
By the time I finish CS2 they will announce CS3 on PC and my PS4 version will remain sealed.
Tell me about Secret of Mana remake. This >>388353556 looks like that terrible iOS or whatever version of FFIV and I don't want to touch that shit.
I do like low poly grafix, but screens on steam page look very lazy. As if it's a nostalgia cash grab... But squeenix wouldn't something this low, wouldn't they?
>>388360504
>>388360784
I had the stupid idea of getting CS1 when it released before knowing about TiTS FC/SC/3rd being set before and CS1 spoiling some stuff, I don't mind buying FC since its the cheapeast and I could get the rest during this xmas sale
>>388347583
Hopefully Cold Steel 3 brings the series back to the quality the previous sagas had instead of being the lower point in the series' story telling and character development

Hey boys, what's a good JRPG I can download and play on my laptop while I'm outta town?
>>388361126
I just hope they fix the combat system
>>388360970
It's decently playable, I'm through the 3rd palace so far and with core pausing I can keep 20-30fps. The glitching happens once in a while when hitting cutscenes or load screens and can range from just the textures getting wonky to text boxes as well. Sometimes hitting another loadscreen/cutscene will fix it but if it ever happens to me I just save and reset since usually the game will freeze not too long after it occurs. This blog post explains which settings to tweak: https://rpcs3.net/blog/2017/07/13/persona-5-is-now-playable-in-rpcs3/

Once again.
Once a fucking gain I am right about NISA. I knew these charlatans for what they were as soon as the Disgaea 2 DHD dlc fiasco happened and I warned you all throughout the years. Yet you slaves continued to defend them. I don't even reply to apologists anymore because I know that time will always prove me right.

Hell if I know.
Why is this not coming out on the Switch? It was originally a Super Nintendo game. Fuck, Square has such a boner for Sony.
>>388362631
Have fun. If you end up having to pause cores to get a more fluid framerate what's worked for me is to pause 3, 4, and 5 at the starting 'do you want to connect to online features?' screen, then once I've loaded my game pause 2. Pausing 2 will generally make the game pause as well but if you keep clicking run/pause eventually it'll stop and the game will keep going.
>>388365636
>Why is this not coming out on the Switch
moneyhatting
>>388365636
It's just some low budget remake. You're not missing out on much. Just emulate the original
I'm going old-school, recently playing through Super Mario RPG, Robotrek, and currently playing Breath of Fire.
>>388365974
Or you can just buy this one for PC. Probably doesn't take much to run the game.
>>388347583
>What are you playing?
First Ys game. Never played any of this series before.
>What JRPG are you looking forward to?
Dragon Quest XI (imported it; waiting for it to arrive) and Zero/Ao/CS1/CS2 when I finally get around to them.
>>388365636
Switch is already getting the Seiken Densetsu remake. It's only fair.
>>388365636
I'm going to guess because the Switch already got a Mana trilogy pack in Japan, and Square doesn't care about the west.
>>388366175
Why would you want to pay fucking 40 (F O U R T Y) dollars for what is basically a shitty mobile remake? Don't fall for the Square Enix jew.
>>388366296
Fucking this. If you're absolutely determined to get it, just pirate the game.
>>388366431
Last night when I saw it on the steam pop up I thought, "Oh cool, what is this going to be like 10 dollars? I might buy it I like mana." Then I click on it and go on a laughing fit. Who the fuck thought this was a good marketing plan?

I do have a ps3, I just didn't want to buy the game

>>388384715

It seems like a simple facelift, whereas FF7R is like they're reinventing the entire game

I've been meaning to play it for a while. Maybe after DQ VIII.

He was literally the only good part of Honest Hearts. It was a shit DLC otherwise.
Just about to platinum FFXII Zodiac Age.
I've been a huge DQ fan my entire life, but SE's handling of the series outside of Japan has left a really bad taste in my mouth over the last few years. I want to be excited for DQXI but I'm finding it hard to be.
I was so excited for the 3DS remakes of DQVII and VIII (VII on PS1 is one of my all-time favorite games,) but I eventually ended up not even playing them, even after waiting some four years for the VII remake on 3DS.
Which version of Dragon Quest V is the definitive?
>>388397316
DS has more content, PS2 dat soundtrack. Flip a coin.
>>388397316
Play DS version if you want to marry Deborah (and do it, she's great). Otherwise, play the PS2 version.
Been playing through God Wars the past few days. It's a good little SRPG with a neat setting if you're into Japanese mythology and folklore, but of course, NISA published it in the West, so there's a catch. Somehow they forgot to include subtitles in the animated cut-scenes, despite patting themselves over the back for including dual audio in it.
>>388397405
>>388397579
PS2 emulation sounds complicated. DS it is.
>>388397916
Have a blast, it's a great game.
>>388397693
>Somehow they forgot to include subtitles in the animated cut-scenes
wait what? Is there adub
>>388391583
Because they wasted so much time and resources on inconsequential shit on disc 1. They needed an editor very badly.
Most likely it was just intended as a vita title and got ported to PC and ps4 in development
I like it, but its certainly a coward way of doing a remake
>>388398307
Yeah, but it's Godawful. Think early '00s Koei level of bad.
It's not really the end of the world though, some guy's uploaded all the cut-scenes with his own subs, so it's not that bad. Plus the animated cut-scenes aren't super frequent, most of the story's done in traditional JRPG text-dumps or pseudo-comic scenes ala Bayonetta. NISA's PR guy claimed back on release that they were working on a patch, but two months later and nothing's been heard, so I'm not holding my breath on it ever happening.
>>388347583
>What are you playing?
Currently playing Bravely Second, FF III & FF IV.
>What JRPG are you looking forward to?
Project Octopath Traveler. I'm really curious about it, specially because some people say it could some kind of Bravely third or something like that.
Kind of shuffling around between Tales Of Innocence R, Medarot 9 and Digimon Cyber Cleuth.
No real motivation to play anything though. Might be burned out a little.
