Romancing Saga 2, good or pass?

Romancing Saga 2, good or pass? - Lemmy.World

Never played any Romancing Saga, I saw the trailer and it captured my attention. For those that played, was it worth? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wCloP3y0LnY [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wCloP3y0LnY]

Thanks for sharing, this one was flying under my radar! There are a couple of things about monster collector games that I wish developers would improve, and I’m not sure how this one handles them:

  • Balance is the core of any good RPG. The mathematics behind monster types, stats, and matchups need to be well-designed and internally consistent. If the numbers don’t make sense, the whole experience falls apart.
  • Monetization can make or break a game. Please, no pay-to-win mechanics, no predatory microtransactions, and especially no gacha systems. A fair, upfront pricing model goes a long way in building trust with the community.
  • If it includes multiplayer and PvP, design it thoughtfully. Competitive modes need careful balancing to prevent a small meta from dominating, and the community tools (reporting, matchmaking, etc.) should actively work against toxicity. Make it fun , with the option to challenge other using your full team (maybe 6 monsters?), normally they force you use max 3 or 4.
  • QoL features are non-negotiable. Fast travel, box management, in-game encyclopedias, and autosave are small things that make a huge difference in comfort and replayability.

    • Thanks again, I’ll keep an eye on this one and the upcoming Nexomon 3!

    That is really good advice. Thank you!

    If you haven’t played Shredder’s revenge would you maybe opt to go with Cosmic Invasion? I used to play Turtles on the arcade and it was very fun but I’d like it in a modern evolution. I asked the other contributor about the graphics. Have you felt that Shredder’s was a bit too pixelated?

    I looked Scott Pilgrim and I think that really doesn’t make my heart pump. The aesthetic isn’t very appealing to me and is not nostalgia, because I kind of like the Absolum style. Absolum just look a bit more involving game, and even maybe built for single campaigns.

    It is helpful. How do you feel about the graphics? I was checking some videos and Cosmic Invasion was looking a bit more polished.

    This is more of a personal taste thing but I’m not a huge fan of the combo: Open World + Single player + RPG

    If you have Open World and RPG, nowadays that calls a Multiplayer situation for me, otherwise is just a lonely journey. Despite the bad entrance and the distributors, I hope Chrono’s Odyssey has success, without the regular bullshit that we see in MMORPGs nowadays.

    Nothing against to linear game + single player + RPG. Interested to see Phantom Blade Zero and Tides of Annihilation.

    Is Cosmic Invasion a step up on Shredder's Revenge?

    Is Cosmic Invasion a step up on Shredder's Revenge? - Lemmy.World

    I’m trying to find a modern beat’up title that is complexity level low, without RPG mechanisms, to have light sessions with visits and wife. I’m looking at Cosmic Invasion but since is a recent title it is hard to get a good grasp. If you would to decide between getting Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredder’s Revenge or Marvel Cosmic Invasion would you get?

    Hi, quick question, for a real world case scenario. If one has a Keychron M6 Wireless Mouse Pixart 3950 8K Polling rate compatible out of the box with Linux via Chromium browser tweaks, would them need this DKMS module to allow it to reach the 8K pool rate OR this is to potentially surpass the manufacture ceiling?

    Cool this is nice! Just confirming, the image translation is only for OCR, right? I mean it doesn’t translate a photo of a menu in a restaurant or am I missing something?
