/vrpg/ is a place to discuss all types of role-playing video games, including single-player, multi-player, and massively multi-player, turn-based and real-time action, western-style and JRPG.

Does this mean RPGs are banned on other video game boards? No! /vrpg/ is just a separate board specifically focused on RPGs where discussions about your favorite games can thrive.

Please familiarize yourself with the rules and remember to use the spoiler function where appropriate!

I've wondered what they could do with an expansion regarding the characters, and your suggestion sounds cool. I'm pretty excited to see the cast again. I ended up liking them a lot, even the dumbass kids.

I ran into this on my first attempt at Total Origin Character Death. Made a custom party of 4, and on the nautilloid Laezel barges into my party with no option to say no. I pushed her off the side of the nautiloid and she stayed in my fucking party, dead.

The progression of the journey is inherently fucked.

You're gaining levels and magic items in the wilderness, getting through more and more secret lairs or dark dungeons and by the time you reach the city you're an experienced adventurer that has to deal with clearing rats in a cellar because the city is naturally going to be populated by lvl1 peasants.

The best method is to either start at the city (like BG2 with Athkatla) or reach the city at the mid-point and make it the central hub thereafter (NWN2) to make it less jarring.
>>
I really liked the BG1 progression and thought the city was amazing when I got there. I liked the contrast between wilderness exploring and how things kind of picked up and were denser in the city zones. I also liked how the city was 100% contiguous zones, what you see is what you get

Can you name an RPG that has enough variety and replayablity for at least several playthroughs to feel vastly different?

I'm not just talking about what weapons/equipment/classes you can use.
Branching routes that completely change what locations you visit and what party members you have.
Maybe your starting options change enough for each playthrough to feel different.
Or maybe the game has a lot of randomly generated variables that impact each playthrough.
I'm not asking for an ultimate game, just want to know what game felt like that for you.

The only time replay is worth is for nostalgia or if there's whole new characters, maps and story in the branching path, mechanically only never is worth

Never just that would be enough to replay RPGs, principally when RPGs tend to be long games

I know its sad its taken this long and had to come from China, the game is pretty rough but it ticks all the basic boxes of what I've been looking for in a sandbox rpg.
>>3220168
For Skyrim, Wildlander modpack is by far the easiest way to make the game more of a real rpg. It uses requiem, frostfall, alternate starts and a few hundred other mods all curated to work together. It has an in depth magic research system where you can find and study artifacts, practice magic, write spells and figure things out yourself. It's totally viable to be some weirdo that lives in a dungeon for years and through research learns all sorts of OP shit before ever engaging in combat.

The gaming industry is at the point now where 90% of AAA titles are just outsourced garbage, feels mass produced and somehow costs more to make using ESG and Blackrock money than any half-decent indie title with a few dudes in a garage making a game out of passion.
We've needed a majority of these companies to collapse and make way for new prospects for years now, plenty of old titles that were beloved have been "revived" or "remade" or had "sequels" made that are just strictly worse than their predecessors in multiple ways. Bastardized IPs stolen and purchased by suits that are so out of touch with their target audience they shove every contempered form of "representation" and new flavor of the month political idealism in titles that have really nothing to do with the subjects.
Escapism is a dying form and is the reason why old ass games like TF2 and Warcraft 3 are still vibrant with players to this day, a game that was made to be fun, end of story.
Before anyone screeches /pol/ boogeyman, you need to understand that I've been playing games well before most of this conversation even began, before it was "video games are too violent". It's not a matter of recent thought, it's just how things have progressed ever since occupy wall street and gamergate took place.

I've found that Silver Armor + Elite Knight Leggings + Steel Helm + Wanderer Manchettes are a pretty stylish combination.

It gets even better if you use the Priest's Hat instead of the Helmet, but then you lose out on a lot of protection so...

I suck at finding the bonfires in some places. I was completely baffled why there were so many long runs back to bosses before looking up areas I've been through and discovering that most of them have fairly reasonable bonfire placement it's just I was a moron and missed a bunch of them.

Cool but it burned me out. After getting multiple megas and ExEs I still feel super weak and can't progress much. I was playing it without a guide and I got stuck aroung prosperity 40. Don't really feel like grinding so I might end up looking for a guide anyway. Its sad cause I really liked it for the most part but the pacing killed it for me.
>>
>>3218746
My assumption is that after Survive's endless delays they don't want to announce anything until they know they can hit their exact release date. In February 2022 during Digimon Con they were too worried to give a release date for Survive, but then a month later they announced it's July release date. I expect when the next game gets announced it will be only a few months out from it's release date.

He's a stat autist who thinks more stats = more roleplaying. According to Zaric, Daggerfall, a game that is almost entirely procedurally generated, is better than Oblivion or even Skyrim simply because it has so many unneeded skills.

You forgot to mention the 1st place of the incompetence competition: the queen.
In act2-3 you accomplish enough to see a breakthrough after nearly 100 years of failures and defeats and people actually start to think that the Wordwound can be closed.
She takes charge for 6 months and she destroys everything.

My first playthrough was as an Azata and I instantly lost any and all respect for the Queen after she demoted me for successfully assaulting the Midnight Fain and killing Minagho in a week of prep instead of waiting a month for her geriatric ass to arrive with reinforcements. Also imagine having your life artificially extended to such a degree and having no suitable heirs outside of Daeran. It's almost like she never planned on the Kingdom being inherited after she dies..

What's the best grid game for someone who enjoys them, but also sucks at playing them? I played some of the Fire Emblem games on 3DS and they were pretty easy. But then I'll go a bit deeper and get insta-filtered, I've tried FFT so many times before I give up, and Tactics Ogre looks even harder.

Tactics Advance and A2 are easier and more streamlined compared to the first game. There's also pic related, a very simplified TO/FFT clone that to this day I'm still surprised ever got made.

It helps if I actually remember the pic.

Also Triangle Strategy has Easy and Very Easy difficulties, and there's a free demo that covers the first few hours of the game, so maybe check that out.
