An important thing that must be remembered, since particular companies go out of their way to remove Roms from existence of games they will never go back to thus depriving people of a chance to experience them.
This goes double for games that were never translated and thus you only ever had a chance to play through fan-translation-patches. Anyone have personal stories when it comes to that? Live A Live was mine, in the process became one of my favorite rpgs now. https://fantasyanime.com/legacy2/live_about.htm

In my younger years relied on translation patches on roms played via emulation to experience various japan-only games (primarily rpgs, where being able to actually understand the text was more important to being able to play the game).
Nowadays they are remaking and remastering all such old rpgs, and thankfully they aren't always dogshit like when devs 'remaster' more modern games such as the grand theft auto series (and then proceed to fucking delist the better older versions from all marketplaces).
>>426231 FFV was my first final fantasy thanks to translation patches. All the later games in the series sucked dick compared to it. FFVI felt like a romhack where they turned every class to a boring character.
And FFV in particular is a prime example of classic RPGs being remastered in dogshit ways.
Looks like Kaladesh is the artifact centric plane as we saw it in Origins. And Tezzeret is mucking about for reasons, so my bet is on Phyrexians in the second half. Poison counters plus Energy counters, oh my!
Whyis there not an Xcom sort of game but set in a Fantasy-Medieval setting? Obviously the invading force is going to be something magical or from another dimensional rather than little grey men in flying saucers, but still keeping the same concept of the otherworldly threat building up while your scholars and wise-men discern the secrets of the remains you bring back letting your force grow in strength to combat it.
South Park Gaming thread, from the new RPGs to the classic first-person shooter. All are welcome.
Personally I've gotten ridiculously hyped over Fractured But Whole, makes me keep browsing the same information about it over and over again. If anyone has something new then share it, need to scratch that itch.
I can't believe how long South Park has continued to run for. Its basically a more crude zombie simpsons now, made by has-bins that should have stopped years ago.
there is a 2b2t player alot of people seem to talk about named THEJudgeHolden, but I have one question, does he still play 2b2t or Minecraft? I'm just curious
>>426050 Sorry, meant to quote the other guy, I'm playing MS Tactics Demo. And yeah, it's VERY puzzle heavy. I'm not sure I like it, but it's extremely overwhelming on the first go. It emphasizes separate unit abilities to "chain" and high mobility to give you extra defense. You also can't cheese team attacks by cancelling movements. The music is meh, the artwork is manga junk instead of pic related (you can see the classic select faces in only one place, in a 8x8 icon), the controls are keyboard + mouse only, and the sprite work is... it's pretty decent actually, but not up to the standard of the classic games. Let's say, if the classic games have 10/10 sprite animation, then MS Tactics is maybe 7/10. It's decent but only half as smooth as the original ones and every character makes bouncy bouncy poses and movements.
>>425983 I kind of hate the second year of dlc characters. Its 4 characters only across an entire year... and as well as bringing Bison back two of the them are fucking crossover fighters from SNK. Would have rather preferred Mayor Cody and Maki honestly.
So although there seems to be an agreement on this game looking awful, discussion in the General thread seems enough to merit a containment thread. This is that thread.
