Etrian Odyssey General

First for U3.

RIP OP

Second for hard sex with lolis.

U3 is good too though

>>144494028
The dancer thread was fine, this one too.

>>144494094
What's with people worrying about the OPs?
Has anyone used the /vg/ catalog? There are 2 seperate hentai game threads AND a /vg/ colab hentai monster girl game thread.
At this very moment I count at least 10 lewd OP pics and I think this is a poor show for the catalog OP pics. I wouldn't save a one.

>>144494507
The OP was deleted once because it had Necromancer in it, and it really didn't show anything more than the current one.

>>144494605
See >>144211240

I would like to recant my statement about the overworld from EOIV from last thread. While I do like the sailing better, I think the overworld is a nice addition. It's it's own little puzzle with FOEs to dodge or fight and stuff to collect. I just think that boats are more fun since they actually exist, unlike skyships (fucking blimps don't count).
I hope in U3 they do more than just copy the ship exploration part. I hope they really expand on it. More areas, more FOEs, more items.

>>144496943
Addendum: I think the most fun part about the sailing was painting areas you wouldn't need to go. Like actually squinting to see the 4 squares ahead of you and mapping it out and the tiles next to it, and the ones next to those. That was the nice touch about having limited movement.

>>144496943
EOIV oveworld was bad. Not because it wasn't charming, because it was charming. But because you never were in danger unless you put yourself in said danger.

Not being turn based it was easy just to bruteforce every "puzzle"

>>144497192
Yeah. I suppose I just liked how populated it was compared to the sea.
Fishing is way superior to just flying over spots and collecting things though. At the very least in their next attempt, make fish, birds, and beasts follow around the FOEs so you're at real risk if you want to collect them all.

>>144497392
Best way to fix it, it would have a post game food that allow you like 300-500 days in the ocean for free exploration.

>>144497483
Hey, there you go. It can even take up all your slots so you still have to carry the right shit if you want to get items and fish.

>>144496943
I've always thought it would've been neat if the sea-locations in EO3 were small dungeons with a boss at the end.
Actual FOEs on the map (instead of just pirates), and puzzles that don't boil down to "equip these three things and move in this specific pattern" would make it more engaging too.
I prefer EO4's overworld, but EO3's feels like more of an adventure. I just hope they build on that.

>>144498404
Right on the money, anon.

My super secret EO wish is that they knock it off with the 3D dungeons. make the walls nice 2D things that aren't just copy/paste walls. So there are visual landmarks. The 3DS ones aren't terrible, but they have artists, make use of them. Put the animation team on vacation.

Has anyone else seen the Kamigokuto trailer? Could be good, plus it got my Corruption boner going.

>>144499710
Well I know the EO Generals used to also be the Dungeon Crawling general as well a while ago; where did those get moved to?

>>144499959
There was a whole shit storm and basically the other Dungeon crawlers got fend up with everyone mostly talking about EO and the EO people were getting annoyed by the other Dungeon crawler discussions. So this was made into EO general while the others went and made Dungeon Crawler general. Now guess which one died out quicker.

>>144499959

Again, stop lying, those were falseflaggers.
There were no problems with both coexisting for a long time until the shitstorm started. Nowadays every time someone mentions other dungeon crawlers some autists start shitposting.
Also everyone who claims he likes the game play of EO but is not interested in other games of the genre is either completely retarded, a guy who only plays for artstyle or a liar. I really don't understand either one of those and am convinced that a lot people here play other games of the genre, so there's no "them" and "us".

>>144500242
Don't know about that one since I don't own a Vita but what about all the dungeon crawlers on other platforms?

>>144503071
Go back to your general anon.
Just because you like one game it doesn't mean you have to like all the games in the same genre.

>>144503071
There are people like that in lots of generals for some reason. I get trolling, it makes enough sense I suppose, but real fucking shitposters. The faggots who just wait to say, "This game doesn't belong here! Get out!", fuck those guys.

Actual false flaggers. It's amazing. /gsg/ has a bad dose of it.

>Just because you like one game it doesn't mean you have to like all the games in the same genre.
You like an entire series of games and those are heavily inspired by classical dungeon crawlers, so you really can't tell me that you do not like the gameplay of others at all.

They don't. Most dungeon crawlers have a fucked up UI and everything is a fucking mess.

The thing I like the most about Etrian games is that everything is pristine and also the information is easy to read.

>>144503523

How many have you played? Because that's not true at all unless you just like the colors of EO or some shit like that.

>>144503646
Wizardry, Elminage (these shit are an unplayable mess)

>>144496943
>(fucking blimps don't count)
Why?

What I liked most about EO4's overworld is that it gave an actual sense of adventure and exploration. Travel through unknown lands. Locate the special temple/jungle/village/cave. Explore the shit out of it. Keep traveling.
Whereas routinely doing down to a city-anexed a labyrinth where you do pretty much the same stuff all the time feels more like work than adventure.
Too bad said overworld also murdered labyrinth depth. If only we could have both.

>>144503690
You haven't played them then. Sure the old Wizardry games are extremely minimal in comparison but I really don't see why the UI of the newer ones or Elminage games should be fucked up.
What makes the UI of Elminage fucked up that the EO games don't have? Because the UI's are very similar (again dungeon crawlers) only difference is that the system of Elminage is more detailed and has more information.

>>144503715
The more I think about it, the more it was... fine. JUST fine. I guess it was jarring for them to be like, oh here's a free airship, that thing you get half way through every other RPG. They kept saying how special it was and you're the new guys in town, of course they have to give it to you, or there's no game.
It was just a little off for me. You could have dug it up if they had a 5 floor deep dungeon below the town or something.
But it doesn't really matter now since 5 won't have that stuff.

>>144499096
The basic design is cool, but the usual CH shit ruins it.

Well, the plot was that Logre's skyship crashed nearby and they copied the technology (or what they could), then the Count sponsors pretty much every guild with one. Which is a crazy investment but I could see him doing that. I guess you pay it off with animals and plants you collect and are forced to sell right away, there's just no way that an actual cow is worth so little.

Then you see the original skyships and realize what a shoddy imitation Tharsis skyships are.
They're just lucky that there seem to be gassy stones all over the place.

The thing I dislike about all the other Dungeons crawlers is that its turn order. I like taking my turn for all my characters in one go in these types of games. Most other DRPGs keep doing turn order and it shite.

>>144505282
It depends. When you do turn order you get more of a "Come on, come on, fucking be my turn next, I neeeeeeed this." At least if it's done right, like Darkest Dungeon, otherwise it draws out the battle since you can't choose your attacks and hold A.

>>144505282
>Most other DRPGs keep doing turn order and it shite.
Mind making a list? The only other dungeon crawlers that other guy mentioned have all the same "one go" order like EO.

Hey.

You wanna know a good DRPG?

Arcana.

I'm surprised I played it at all since I shoved in Eye of the Beholder at my cousin's house and was like, "What is this shit? This is a fucking Super Nintendo. Where's Super Mario World + All Stars and Megaman X?"

>>144505040
>when EO is wizardry with a map gimmick
Unless every turn based first person dungeon crawler = Wizardry that's just wrong.

I bought EO4 last week, I've just gotten to the quest where you take Shop Loli to find flowers in a dungeon. Is there anything I should be aware of?
Also I hear "Medic is a subclass" a lot. Why is this and when do I unlock subclasses?

>>144505712
I beat it some time ago. It was kinda boring and it had a weird difficulty curve.

>>144505712
Hey, you wanna know something else

This is still the wrong general no matter how much you guys want to bitch about it.

>>144506093
You unlock subclasses before the third boss.
The first unlockable class subclassed as medic is generally considered to be better than a medic. This is because the unlockable class has things that it can do in turns when it isn't healing, and can put out respectable heals when it needs to. A medic subbed as this class will not be as effective in the turns between healing.
In terms of things to know. Don't use too many support classes, but otherwise EO4 is pretty forgiving so far as party composition goes. If you're trying to build a linkshark team, keep in mind that your whole party should be built around that to maximise effectiveness.

>>144506098
The ending theme is killer though.

>>144506153
See, where other generals have a shitposting group, you're just one guy, so it doesn't work out.
I'll use /gsg/ as an example again, there's a whole steamgroup. Memespouting, mod dicksucking faggots.

It's not like anyone's posting anything else anyway. I don't want /eog/ to die like /idle games general/ did.

Why can we never go a single thread without someone bringing up DCG or 7th Dragon? It's like people want to start shit on purpose.

>>144506330
>I don't want /eog/ to die like /idle games general/ did.

How noble of you. We aren't anywhere near dying nor as slow as some generals or just even how we were before. If your idea of keeping this place alive is by bringing up shit that was decided long ago, you're just shit posting

>>144505995
Not really. There are a little bit more common points than just FPS.

>>144506578
>If your idea of keeping this place alive is by bringing up shit that was decided (by me) long ago, you're just shit posting

>>144507489

>>144507489
>decided (by me)

And me. And every other single person that decided to post here instead of the /dcg/.

>>144507578
I actually called it EO2U always. For the simple logic that the game it uses as a base is EO2, not EOU.

>>144506390
Because people like to bring up/recommend games with similar game play and their differences while discussing a game series they love.
The 7thD is probably a combination of director and animu art style or something like that, it has been discussed here quite often.

The better question is why we can never go a single thread without autists getting extremely emotional over what other people post, be it permadeath, background stories, games of the same genre etc.

>>144507731
>And every other single person that decided to post here instead of the /dcg/.

Changing the name of the thread isn't necessary. The fact that there was no problem with the coexistence of discussions wasn't caused by the name "Etrian Odyssey/Dungeon Crawler general". People just tolerated it because it was never that much discussion in the first place (like 5% of a thread at most, source: my memory and ass) and, again, it's related discussion.

>>144508938
>Because people like to bring up/recommend games with similar game play and their differences while discussing a game series they love.

Go to the lol general and convince them to talk about Dota, since they're based off the same Warcraft mod. Go tell the Counter strike general to talk about TF2 since they're both on the source engine. Quit being a retard, and shame on me for taking the bait.

>>144509137
Those have their own generals, your point is moot.

>>144509137
Good thing we're on the level of assfaggots and all the others. Only because they aren't capable of rational discussion of mechanics they'd like to see added or talking 10 posts about very similar games instead of meaningless bump posts (like we do a lot here unless a metadiscussion is happening) doesn't mean that we aren't either.
Unless the userbase is the same which seems to be the case for you at least because I sure as hell couldn't make statements about those generals since I've never stepped my foot into one of them.

>>144509137

>>144509247

>>144509491
You're right, it isn't your fault. You have nothing to do with it.
Doesn't mean they shouldn't be able to post.
I say let them post. Who knows, might be some fun mechanics and I might buy a new game.

And for the last time, there was no reason to start a new general when the discussion never was that big in the first place. Everyone with a brain should have been able to realize this, so the people who did were either retards or falseflaggers. Same with that MeiQ recently.

Is Nine smashes damage worth it's 55% accuracy?
i'd like to go club mastery on my gladiator but idk if it's worth it late game

I'm surprised they let Faf and Flavio be past 18.

>>144531207
9 smashes is only really worth it if you have some way to guarantee you hit the majority. So you'll want leg binds, blinding or paralysis. The only classes that can deal these are Ninja (leg binds); Buccaneer (Blind) and Wilding (All 3); but each of those classes are underwhelming in all other regards.
I normally run Sword Gladiator. Keep in mind that only Blade Rave can hit 1 enemy multiple times.

Those classes are underpowered. Except arguably ninja who makes for a pretty OK subclass.

Oh yes, I had requested that last night, I had no idea someone delivered. Thanks!

I haven't gotten far in Etrian Odyssey 3 yet. I just found out that if I use thunder attacks my Bucanner can follow up on them with a special skill. So now I have a Hoplite, Zodiac and Arbalist spamming thunder attacks while my monk uses physical attacks and heals. Is this a solid strategy?

Elemental weaknesses.
Like all of them. Fish are weak against lightning because water conducts electricity, fire because you cook 'em, and ice because water freezes.
They have a poor lot in life.

>>144562775
You should have spent your first 500en on weapons for each character, and the smallest armor you can afford for everyone. I think there are 20en shoes or something.

Gang up on monsters, don't spread your attacks. Figure out if your 2 hardest hitters can kill one and the other 3 can kill one. Or maybe your weakest and strongest can take one out and the other 3 can take one. Stuff like that. Plan your encounters a little, this isn't final fantasy. Don't be afraid to use your alchemist to fry an enemy either. Heal when you have to.

>>144563237

>>144564936
The deal with bard/survivalist is that bard is better for bosses and survivalist is better for random exploring. So that's what you're feeling. You don't have as much offensive oomph. The survivalist would contribute with nice damage and always acting first.

MD is buggy, absolutely.
You can avoid the class with the bugs though. But the only class that does something similar has really bad looking models

>>144567121
The only buggy thing about EMD is the sovereign class, and one of those bugs is there only if you choose to abuse it. Retarded AI has always been a feature of MD since the 90s

>>144567563
Exactly.
You can avoid a majority of the bugs easily, but dancers' models are fucking garbage as the only other buffing class.
The panic however is pure evil incarnate and the definition of artificial bullshit.

What's the best subclass for a buccaneer anyway general?

>>144580738
Always glad, for charge/vow. But for all intents and purposes G/B is better for the same purpose since they have endless battle and better stats; if you have a levelled bucc then B/G still does the job and is better at landing head bind with hanging since their luck/tec stats are higher. B/N is also reasonable

>>144581586

Sub Glad.
Absolutely no downside to glad sub because Charge makes you more TP efficient and boosts overall damage by 50% (30%? One of those)

>>144599436
Sure, why not?
Terrible Vocaloid intro though.

>>144599526
Kill yourself.

>>144599740
Just go back to dungeon crawler general.

>>144599436
Played most of it, ragequit on the final boss, pretty good game overall, but has some stupid design decisions

>>144599952
Fuck off.

>>144599436
EO gen isn't /dcg/ but this is probably fine as long as it doesn't derail the entire thread.

Also I didn't know it was coming to Steam? Is this the one with editable portraits?

>>144600089
Why are you so triggered anon?
There is no way someone would want to argue with you when you act like this.

>>144599436
>Experience
It's hard to get hyped for their games, not bad but very samey. I'm more interested in that Xbone game they announced since it won't be a dungeon crawler.

That's because I don't want to argue anymore. The autists should leave, I'm starting to speak their language.

I think all versions have custom portraits.

>>144600467
No anon. You are the autist here.

>>144600491
I still don't know how I feel about custom portraits, I love them because of the freedom you have but I also hate them because of the clashing art styles.

>>144600491
>4 of them don't even have a mana bar, including 2 that have low HP.
What do they do? Just attack and defend and use items?

>>144601038
And skills.

Why should non-magic users have mana? They have skills.

>>144600168
Just to keep it relevant
How is this compared to EO? Is it easier or less polished?

>>144601223
>>144601232
Are they based off of how many turns it takes to recover the use of them or something?

>>144601392
I haven't played SotSC yet but usually you have to use a "charge" command in the previous turn or you just select the skill like a normal attack.

Is the mansion in EOU accessible in Classic Mode?

>>144602191
Yes

>>144601232
Tales of Maj'Eyal has a lot of fun skill systems.
Like Equilibrium. It has no limit. You can cast your spell all you want but the more of it you have (it goes up when you cast) the more likely the spell is to fail. Or Paradox where the more you have, the more powerful your spells are, but the more likely they are to backfire or create horrible temporal anomalies that will kill you. Also you choose how much of it you have.
Vim has a hard limit of 100 and you recover it with certain weaker spells. And hate goes down over time and goes up in combat.
>>144602191
Yes.

>>144599436
Bruh you got the Vita general for this, do you not see that this is the Etrian Odyssey general?

>>144602292
As much as that sounds fun that sounds kind of tedious.
Why not just go SMT and use HP, or FF and EO and just use MP/TP respectively?
Or DnD and FF1 with "skill per day" uses.

>>144602468
Just stop arguing and report since it is off topic. Even though it had been awhile since anyone brought this up, I can't help but feel they do it on purpose to start shit.

>>144602468
It doesn't belong here, but why would he go to the Vita general for a Steam game?

>>144602559
>I can't help but feel they do it on purpose to start shit.
Jesus, is the thought of people wanting to discuss similar games of the genre that absurd? There's no "they".

>>144602604
It's because the vitagen is responsible for all the shitposting here, every guy who plays other dungeon crawlers is a vitagenfaggot, weren't you here when the EO/Dungeon Crawler shitstorm started (after a long time of peaceful coexistence)?

>>144602815
>every other guy who plays dungeon crawlers is a vitagenfaggot
I didn't know Strange Journey was on Vita.

It's really funny that the retards who complain about dungeon crawler posts and those who complain about other faggots complaining cause more (completely off-topic) posts than those few dungeon crawler posts alone ever did during the Etrian Odyssey/Dungeon Crawler General phase.

I know you guys like shitposting but please stop.

>>144603249
I will as soon as they understand that this is the ETRIAN ODYSSEY general. It's in plain English, I don't see how anyone can't not understand.

>>144603249
Agreed.
Just leave the dungeon crawler guys be. They'll leave after a while.

>>144602936
But it sure is in the SMT general.

>>144603249
Congratulations you've contributed to the same shit as well with this post and so have I. Thanks for the shitpost.

>>144603485
No fucking shit.

Hang on. I think I got it now.
So anyone see The Odyssey? It's a pretty good movie. Calypso is my waifu. I didn't see Armoroad though. I probably have to rewatch it.

>>144603874
Armoroad is Greece. Read the fucking manga.

But we can still talk about the only good version of 7th Dragon, right? Everyone knows its relation to EO.

Hey nigga don't go hating on spell slots.
Shit's fuckin great goddamn.

That being said, I'm starting to think we should probably make shit back into dungeon crawling general, because even as an Etrian Odyssey General every DC-fag comes here anyway.

>>144604062
Only if we can talk about FFXIV, I mean it's only fair

>>144603359
We aren't allowed to talk about SQV then?
I don't see how you "can't not understand" that the small amount of posts talking about other games in the genre never hurt anybody except maybe your autism.

>>144603359
>>144604196
Pack it up people. We're not allowed to talk about Sekaiju no Meikyuu here.
>>144604121
As much as I like Dungeon Crawlers, that's probably a bad idea. Especially due to the prior shitposting that's happened.
>>144604123
No.

This is what, the eighth thread in a row now?
fuck's sake people, just stop yelling at each other and work together.
We all like the same shit, no need to get autistic about it.

>>144604313
Shitposting or not, making a singular thread will stop the future shitposting, right?
There won't be flamebait for the rest of forever because 7th dragon (even though it really isn't a dungeon crawler nearly as much as it is a DQ clone) like there is now, and maybe we can have more active threads.

At this point. I think it's the same anon trying to derail the thread.

>>144604530
/dcg/ is deader than Hrothgar
Just letting this stay EO with sporadic dungeon crawler posts here or there is a better option.
Also discussing this might attract the anti-dcg and pro-dcg autists.
>>144604629
I see no Etrian Odyssey here.
