What RPG's (J, W, or A) let character utilize or build around guns as a combat option or as the central gameplay?

Playing like pic related is not necessary, but is a bonus. I already played Arcanum and Alpha Protocol.

Why do some Transfer Paks come with a grey sticker and some with a purple one? Everything but the colour seems to be exactly the same.

Is it the difference between Transfer Paks included with Pokemon Stadium and Transfer Paks sold individually? If so which is which?

Giving recommendation lists this long makes you a shitty recommendation-giver. You're doing nothing but stroking your ego about how many you can name.

A decent recommendation would be 3-5 in different styles with a brief description of what kind of map it is so OP can decide what sounds interesting.

Might as well just link to Quaddicted and tell OP to sort by rating:
https://www.quaddicted.com/reviews/
At least there he can read a review and see screenshots.

What are some useful keyboard shortcuts for this game? Finding it quite difficult to navigate with such a stripped down UI compared to XCOM, which is the TBS I am most familiar with.

Also, any way of changing the setting where the camera moves to where the bullet eventually hits? Because of low accuracy this invariably moves the camera over to the other side of the map every time I shoot, which is fucking annoying.

Any tips on starting mercs too? I just bought a handful of cheap ones for 2 weeks. Is that good or bad?

Google ja2 hotkeys.
But ones I used a lot included 'r' and 's' for run and walk. 'B' to toggle between single shot and burst. Pageup and pagedn to crouch, go prone. Also 'alt' to sidestep around corners.

Also, play through the regular campaign once or twice, then download v1.13 and don't look back.
>>
>>2775041
Most of the cheap starting mercs will be fine. A few will have conflicts with each other, like Barry and igor, or fox and buns. If you want to, you can hire a expensive merc for a day, and then keep his equipment when he leaves.
>>
A team of 4 is a good start since you get Ira and Dimitri for free quite early.

Also anyone know if the 1.13 version of Urban Chaos is ok or should I just play it safe with the original?

Hey /vr/, what do you do or what did you do when you realized becoming an awesome retro game collector just wasn't feasible?

Lets say your heart really does still lie with retro games after all these years, and then reality sets in and then doubts and worry sets in regarding collecting.

>Money
>Space
>Time
>Worries about rarity
>No one to play with
>Ease of emulation
>It'll all be dust some day

etc etc. Whether you stop altogether or just decide to move onto emulation, what were the reasons why? Where does one stepping into digital collections begin? How do you assuage that "It's just not quite the same" feeling?

As for me I'm just getting into collecting digitally any way I can, but I'm new to the most effective emulators and setups. I'm not sure if I should just keep my stuff in boxes or if I should give it to an actually superior, successful collector. I'm not really interested in selling anything. Pic related, it's an offhand photo of my humble yet very incomplete collection, just some shots of SNES/N64 games amassed by high school, some notable favorites absent.

This is dumb. You should set out to buy the games you'd like to play, emulate the ones out of you price range, and that's it.
>>
I'm a stickler for playing the games as originally released. I've got a lot of albums on vinyl as well.

alright /vr/ hear me out

I've been trying to get into this game for a long while now but I can't stand the English voices. I know there's an undub circulating out there and I actually gave it a try but the piece of shit still has the English combat voices.

Now, even after that I kept playing and fully enjoyed the game. Even got up to the ghost ship boss but the retarded English battle voices finally got to me and I had to drop the game.

Here I am once more many years later and there's rumors of a 100% English Text Japanese voices version out there but I can't find it for the life of me.

All I want to ask: does such a version even exist or am I being lied to?
