Title. Untranslated is fine.

I can't think of any Korean RPGs (excluding MMOs) besides picrel. It was meh

Why do you wanna know? Are you learning chinese or korean?
>>
>>3066704
I'm learning Chinese but in terms of Korean I was just curious about how their RPG scene was before it got dominated by gachashit on mobile. Google isn't giving me enough answers

There's a 3DO exclusive SRPG from Korea called Battle Blues. I saw it some video about 3DO games. Someone actually made an English fan patch for it too.

When I went looking for a screenshot I found that hardcoregaming101 has a bunch of pages on Korean games, you could look through them while ctrl-Fing for RPG to find a bunch more games.

And also I remember seeing some Korean and Chinese RPGs including Magna Carta when I was looking through abandonware sites a few weeks ago. I don't remember anything too interesting, but do a google search for site:www.myabandonware.com + "south korea rpg" or "taiwan rpg" and you can find several games.

>It was meh
What's wrong with it? I was thinking about playing the PS2 version.
>>
>>3066720
It's very clunky/glitchy and all over the place. The story was alright, gameplay took some getting used to. I only played the windows version though so idk about PS2. Give it a try, I might just be an asshole

Troubleshooter is one of the more popular recently made Korean RPGs. It's a singleplayer SRPG. Insane amounts of content, 100+ hours.

The gameplay is basically XCOM but you can grind and steamroll.
>>
>>3066723
I'll keep the clunkiness in mind once I play it, thanks!

How very Asian.

You say that, but it's one of RPG Codex's all time favorite games and the Age of Decadence/Colony Ship lead dev (one of the OG Codexers) has 135 hours on it.

Which is ironic, because you can't grind at all in his games.

>RPG Codex's and some schizo dev likes it
And that changes anything how?
If you're fine with doing basically the same thing you did 10 hours for another 100 hours or more then game might be fun and great for you but i honestly didn't find that mmorpg-singleplayer gameplay mutation rewarding in any way
And story had me thinking that i was reading some meh tier manhwa but one page per hour

Who's he, some faggot?

The big 3 Chinese RPG franchises originating from the 90s are fucked in some way.

>Tales of Wuxia
Phoenix Game gathered the Taiwanese devs, Heluo Studio back for a 2016 remake. Unfortunately the publisher booted them once their contract was over and sat on the IP themselves, doing some licensing-related changes and releasing spinoffs without the dev's input. Heluo Studio has since gone indie, released another game and are working on an EA game, Path of Wuxia.

>Xian Jian aka Sword and Fairy
>Xuan Yuan Jian
These two IPs are owned by Softstar and they are a notoriously bad Chinese publisher with practices comparable to EA, Ubisoft, ActiBlizz etc combined, so you can expect problems with all their games on Steam, normally it's them being poorly optimized, buggy ports (Their main platforms are mobile and consoles) or using always-online DRM.

For SaF1, the first version of it released on Steam was a PC port the IOS port of the DOS version, which was ridiculous as it had a functioning Windows version with added content released back in the early 2000s and you can easily download it for free, with an English fan-TL patches even. To their credit they eventually released the Windows version later but people that bought the earlier version weren't gifted it so they were still screwed.

Also the SaF and Xuan Yuan entries have not much to do with each other aside from the Xianxia theme, like FF and DQ but even the devs are different.

It's too bad the Chinese and Koreans are so incompetent, they make slavs look good, because they have some great setting material at hand.

You're better off playing gachashit if you're willing to have brain damage.

I played this, it isn't very good. The difficulty settings are retarded in that they go from brainless easy to ironman saves with no in between, and there's way way too much grind and not enough random events.

It's a shame Suikoden and Vandal Hearts came out on PC but ONLY in Korean/Chinese
