The Four Job Fiesta is starting... are you going to do it?
I just pre-registered. I'll probably give it another shot. I always get shitty jobs that don't work. Maybe this time I get a blue mage... and things are easy for once instead of Berserkers and Dancers with Redmage as my only support.
Anyone up for it?
Will likely be doing the fifth job challenge this year.
Earth jobs are largely booty so I doubt it will change much for me.
>>4032492
Might be Ok, but then again, you might get something garbage.
I'm really hoping for jobs that are more engaging this year. I've gotten Knight-Berserker-Ranger-Dancer, and Monk-Redmage-Ninja-Dancer.
You seriously feel the lack of magic in FF5. Black and White are so extremely powerful that not having them is suffering. Red Mage just doesn't get the good spells, so even with Dualcast, it's still weak sauce.
>>4032475
I just cleared the game yesterday, this time with a friend.
I'm not really up for another run, but does anyone have a fun challenge idea? To mix things up

Nice OP.
Okay /vr/, which one is your favorite and why? This is strictly SNES!
For me, I prefer Dracula X. I've been playing it for the past few days and fired up Castlevania 4 today after years and felt like it was a step back. Sure, the controls aren't as stiff and you can whip everywhere but it felt like your actions had less weight and were less deliberate. I also noticed that the art direction was a lot better in Dracula X. The enemies had better sprites, and the side weapons too, and everything was clearly defined. In Castlevania 4 the enemies can sort of blend in with the backgrounds and overall the style is kinda muddy. In a technological sense, I guess that 4 is more advanced than Dracula X but it's mostly unnecessary. To me the gameplay in Dracula X feels more satisfying.
This is actually great bait, it will get a lot of replies. Lots of meme, misinformation and trolling around those 2.
I'll bet the contrarians at /vr/ will say DX is better. And it might actually be, depending on your taste. I prefer IV; but Dracula X was my first Castlevania game back in '95. Both are pretty gud.
>>4031759
IV if you're a casual babby.
X if you want RoB: Hard Type.
>>4031806
But X is easier than Rondo.
What went wrong?
Nothing you retsupurae watching cuckold.
>>4031423
>cuckold.
fuck off, you /pol/ posting faggot
>>4031423
did you know people played that game before some literally whos did videos on it
I've beaten Planescape Torment, I've beaten Fallout 1 and 2, and I've beaten the more recent Pillars of Eternity. What else should I play in this same vain? I've boughten Baldur's Gate and plan on playing that soon. Right now I'm playing Tyranny.
Make sure you fit Arcanum in there somewhere.
If you have to ask you're probably to young for this board.
>>4031352
The younglings need to seek the wisdom of the old.
Can someone tell me what the fuck these are supposed to be? I've been wondering for almost 20 years now. As a kid I thought they were propane tanks.
Cut down trees aka stumps.
>>4031293
Trash cans.
pylons
Ultimecia lived her whole life under persecution for crimes she hasn't committed because of SeeD's witch/sorceress hunts. She clearly has a reason to be angry with SeeD.
Her entire plan was to compress time to prevent SeeD from killing her (which is inevitable for some reason).
She had Squall interrogated because she wanted to know why SeeD are hunting witches in the first place. SeeD was formed to kill the witch, but for what? Ultimecia was trying to save her own life from THEM; a military group that was formed to kill her before she was even born.
>...Lowlifes. ...Shameless filthy wretches. How you celebrate my ascension with such joy. Hailing the very one whom you have condemned for generations. Have you no shame? What happened to the evil, ruthless sorceress from your fantasies?
So was Ultimecia future Rinoa or not?
This is important.
There is no right or wrong in FF8. That's the whole point of the story.
Squall himself acknowledges this, his thoughts exactly when they're preparing the attack against Edea in Deiling City.
Funny thing is, the mayor of Horizon was right. If both parties had sat down and talked, instead of jumping at each other's throats, they'd realize they only want to kill each others because the other wants to kill them.

Buyers remorse knowing that you could have paid 30 bucks for a Wii instead and had access to proper 240p output and more consoles to emulate.

Do I have to worry about disk rot?
>>4030982
I'd be more worried about disk failure than disk rot.
>>4030982
Unless you live in the amazon rain forest, you should be fine.

If you aren't a literal retard who leaves his discs out in direct sunlight 24/7 you'll be fine.

>There are four possible endings based on choices made by the player.
How can some cheesy survival horror game have more endings than Mass Effect 3?
>>4030538
Maybe because BIoware are hacks?
Survival horror is rooted in the adventure genre.
Multiple endings is not a surprise.
>>4030538
HOW THE FUCK DID THIS SERIES DIE?? IT WAS RESIDENT EVIL WITH DINOSAURS WAHT THE FUCK????? REEEEEEEE

I've seen it but only on discs that are particularly damaged, if it's on every game it's probably your laser.
I'd like to play some obscure strategy games (be it RTS or TBS) with (at least comparably) good or interesting story, from the late 90s.
What would you recommend?
Seven Kingdoms II is worth a playthrough, the game tried to do a completely randomly generated story campaign which is fascinating if somewhat nonsensical to follow.
Myth: The Fallen Lords
The Tone Rebellion
>>4029923
Ground Control
its resource-less RTS with tanks in desert maps
SUPER NINTENDO
SEGA GENESIS
GAMECUBE NINTENDO
Good ol' Genny.
>>4029818
SONY PSX
GAMECUBE IS NOT RETRO AND SAME WITH DEUS EX
ITT: International Videogame Con Men and their victims.
>>4028672

Was AES Last Resort always that expensive?
>>4028784
it was 40 - 80 euros and widely available because no one wanted it. I blame the unwashed "hidden gem" retards on youtube.
Discuss your favorite games and other things about the pc engine. What do you think of it?
Original weeb console.
Had a lot of bullet he'll games. Especially on the CD version.
Looking at a PCE collection feels like I'm LITERALLY regrowing my virginity.
