Adol wouldn't care about beautiful maidens
He would if they have good DPS for when he goes adventuring
No, but it's important that he's woken up by one so that he can have a truly good start to his adventure

Holy fucking based and Adol the Redpilled
Though, it is a bit melancholy to see all these series just peter off like that.
Why is Adol a shota?
literally Adol Hitler
That's just how Falcom Gakuen makes him look
>tfw we'll not get shota Adol adventure for a long time
Missed opportunity, Falcom
Hitler could never be as based as Demon/Goblin/Doom Slayer Adol.
>is gay for adventures and Dogi
But seriously, Dogi is such a fucking bro, to travel across all these lands for this one dude with an autistic obsession with adventures. I mean, it helps that he's obsessed with wall-crushing himself.
Just another evolution of how mobilefaggotry and the mainstream has killed video games, fuck.
>Modern Ys
>Good
The writing is worse than ever, they look like low budget trash, the level design is subpar, and the actual combat peaked several entries ago.
You forgot: No new Tales of announcement and probably dead too.
Neptunia is still shit but Compile Heart is actually making good games now
>The writing is worse than ever
It's Ys, don't tell me you play Ys for the story
>they look like low budget trash
Blame small-ass Falcom with their cheap-tier budgets
>level design is subpar
This I can agree with, though nothing can really top Valestein Castle for me.
>the actual combat peaked several entries ago
This slightly less, because I found the Dana sections really fun and VIII fun in general. If they put more of that in IX with its added verticality, then I think I'm gonna have fun with IX.
Where should I start with this series? Do I have to play them all in order or they all stand alone?
Whats the most recent one?
I tend to ignore CH's stuff because most of it is is garbage that prioritizes fanserivce. Thats not a bad thing its just that it becomes a problem when it's focused on to the point that the game mechanics and story suffer for it.
>>The SaGa series has started ripping off Last Remnant
I can't tell if this is a joke since the other stuff is really dead
Anyway, the next ys is in a prison city or something? Prisons have a lot of walls, yeah?
Are you guys thinking what I'm thinking?
based endro poster
I tried playing the first of the 3D games, and it seemed awful. Have they got better at all?
To me Origin is the apex of Ys and I'm sad that we'll never get something to follow on to that
They are all stand alone, though most anons start with I & II, as for the most recent it is VIII
NISA
Celceta is somehow worse than VII, but VIII is a vast, vast improvement over the first two 3D games, try that if you haven't.
You fucking know it, dude.
SEVEN had my favorite ost and some good boss fights
>coliseum
From what I've played of Death end re;quest as of yet there is way less fanservice and a much larger focus on the story and world building. Unless you count the girls being brutally killed as fanservice.
*blocks your path*
Persona is its own thing now so don't lump it in
Check out this guide, but know that Oath and Origin are must play games in any case.
SMT's cool, but we've gotten practically no news on V to the point where I think it just may be vaporware.
Hence why it is not included since a game is coming for the switch, I hope it is a good game since I like SMT myself. Apocalypse was fun.
I don't disagree with that, my man. SEVEN had some standout tracks:

Literal perfection. How can adol pass her up?
>Ys is still shitty party combat
>but now in a huge empty as fuck world
From what I've heard, Scarlet Grace has lifted off the general feel and some mechanics from Last Remnant, but that's the extent of what I know. But yeah, IX is taking place in Barduk, the Prison City, and I'm hyped for all that sweet Gothic architecture to climb.
It's not final.
The case that it's obscure lends itself to receiving less scrutiny.
I doubt the scale is going to change at all, why are the buildings so fuckhuge when all the people living there are normal sized humans? It just looks bad
They told us on the stream it was a tech demo/alpha build, so I'm holding back full judgement for now. I expect the final game to look a lot better.
The Last Remnant is essentially SaGa Frontier 3 and it builds off of mechanics introduced in earlier Romancing SaGa games.
Because that lady known as adventure is even more perfect to Adol.
Favorite song?
youtube.com
It's not gonna be so obscure once people start noticing Ys IX as a game they can use in console-war threads. I dread when that time comes.
You do know that no person can pick just one Ys track as their favorite, right?

I'm still mad. Why is it everything I love and that is good in the world has to die off and its corpse raped?
Tell me more about how TWEWY got raped
Did you see the secret end of KH3? Sora's traveling the Nomuraverse, and Shibuya's just one little world in it now. After the hype pitfall that was Final Remix, there's not really much hope for people to see TWEWY as anything more than a KH spinoff now, considering Dream Drop Distance.
Rean has no right to speak, he hasn't even faced his share of gods with only a sword in hand.
It should, but I think at only 30 fps? Not sure.
>Did you see the secret end of KH3?
Never liked KH so I didn't played it, sucks that TWEWY is now part of it.
Someone who's a filthy dinosaurfucker isn't perfection, pal
Yeah, they're all standalone, but they do take place in a continuous timeline, but that's more of a point of interest than anything major.

When the fuck is /ourpoleaxewielder/ gonna show his face with his fairies again?
Ys V remake when?
So it's a horror game?
Also Addendum: Focuse on making the game mechanics/characters/Story good then you can do fanservice
I hear DOAX3 really isn't any good,
It still hurts
Is it always the same Adol or is he like Link? Why does his growth reset every game?
Nope, it's the same Adol every time. And as for growth resets, it's a running gag that he shipwrecks at the start of every game and loses all of his most powerful equipment from the previous game.
some random guy on Yea Forums said that adol dies in the north pole, is that true and how did he know that?
can I get the GOG games running on a shitty macbook or would I have to use bootcamp or something?
Forgot to add except for Seven and Oath. But then Seven was a weird fucking game, to be fair. And Oath is the best one
The Ys games are framed as someone in the far future reading Adol's journals of his adventures, and it's speculated by the narrators that Adol apparently died at the North Pole, since nobody has heard of him since. But strangely, nobody found the body...
Falcom has stated that the games are just retellings decades after the events of what Adol wrote down in his adventure diary which ends with him going to the north pole at 60 years old and never returning. Who knows what the fuck happened at the north pole, maybe Adol ascended to become to god of adventure and gets to fuck his harem of goddesses he's collected over the years.
Well, most of them have been designed to run on 2005-2006 Windows-era toasters with the possible exception of Chronicles, so take it as you well.
Oh yeah, and probably the modern 3D games. The Ark games are what should catch your eye, anyways.
shit, wrong post
ark was pretty mediocre desu. easily the second weakest game in front of 5
It had the best OP, though
youtube.com
What's the best game? I've only played origins
Based and red haired.
You already played it then
Other than Ys, which other Falcom games should I play?
The top three best games as of now are generally considered to be Oath, Origin, and VIII. Some people also like Chronicles over all of them, though they're in the minority.
_8__
Origin is decent but overrated
1+2>8>Oath>rest
I really liked Brandish: The Dark Revenant, Xanadu Next, and Tokyo Xanadu
The Trails in the Sky Trilogy and the Zero/Ao duology make up their second flagship franchise, so check them out. Cold Steel is polarizing, but you might like it or not after playing the previous games. Zwei II, Gurumin, and Xanadu Next are worth looking into and playing as well.

Currently playing Ys Seven and just killed the fire dragon. How much of the game do I have left? Like 25%?

Around 40%? You've got like two dungeons and three dragons left, and one big-ass dungeon containing a couple more boss fights before the final boss, for which I would advise you to train your characters that you haven't been using. Trust me on this.
They have worked on it. It just 9 will out first.

the new ys game looks like sonic 06 though
Dammit, they showed a tech demo/alpha build in development. Do we have to go through this every time or what
Beside being amazing at making games with good soundtrack, falcom's other well-known talent is making games that look like shit.
Fuck that noise, give me mommy Frieda any day.
Ys, like dragon quest, realized that people just wanted them to make the thing they always made with some QoL improvements.
Eh, fair enough. I heavily doubt that the city will be empty as fuck in the release though, Falcom's always been pretty good at bringing their cities to life.
>Shining Force is dead
It's so dead I'm fucking shocked someone remembered to mention it.
brb, sinking into a high tech castle while stuck to a sword sealing an undead robot dragon.

Fuck you for reminding me, but ultimately based
This, but Panzer Dragoon for me. Saga was one of my favorite games growing up, so it's sad that Sega has let it been reduced to its current state. At least people remember it, I guess.
Adol please you're gonna kill off every 90's Playstation JRPG nostalgiafag with those words
Cringe romances and relationships? In my Ys? Move along, nothing to see here people, this is as lewd as it gets.
The new games are better than shining force but the series peaked at EXA
>Bof is dead
Capcom's not fucking back until they make a BoF7 that's good and not fucking gachashit
Think he killed off the MMORPG fags as well
If Towa can appear in two different series, can they do the same for Laura, and finally get Dogi a girl?
>BoF7
They made a sixth game? Do tell, my curiosity has been peaked. I'm in the middle of playing BoF 3 blind, but as far as I know, they only made up to Dragon Quarter.
Why do people like Oath so much? I found it falls short in comparison to Origins and Arks
YA
ME
ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
It's mobileshit
Is Adol still a silent protagonist in the newer games?
Laura's a blue-hair, so you'd better be willing to let her suffer a fucking lot before she can get to Dogi.
It's peak adventurekino in the Ark engine that doesn't limit you to three sword swings, what's more to say?
He speaks like 2 full sentences in 8 and I think 1 in Celceta, but otherwise he's silent beyond gameplay quips.
Is your name Malak? Cuz you've mastered UnTruth.
I just looked it up, and dear fucking lord, that looks like shit. Holy fuck, I'm so sorry I brought it up, dude.
Sort of, if you count his grunts when swinging his sword as "silent"
It's cool.

What did Falcom mean by this?
That cute boys are absolutely based and better than girls
There are remakes confirmed for the first 2 Panzer Dragoon games coming this year so Saga should be getting one as well
Kondo wanted to rip off Fates again, so this time he made his own Astolfo. But seriously, they called it a "her" in the stream as well as a "shironeko": white cat. But, hey, maybe they're misleading us and letting us fall into a trap?
they are a bit late to the trends
>high heels
i'm not buying that's male
Based but also fuck you for reminding me Lufia will never be wrapped up
I'm not questioning what they do, because they gave me this minotaur lady to happily ogle at.
>there's going to be 100 Ys games
oh yeaah
High heels are the latest trend among boys
Well that's gay
How many games will it take for Adol to explore all the lands beyond Garman and Europe and realize that there's no adventure left, slowly driving him into madness?
They're remastering it to HD, they're not remakes. A remaster of Saga is impossible since Sega lost the source code.
>Ys is older than ANY of these series or games and is still producing highly underrated quality-over-quantity action RPGs that are fun, challenging, and engaging with god-tier music for everyone to this day
Ys VIII was crap, crippled by spammy combat and a dull gameplay loop. Fight me.
People love cute-looking bois nowadays, didn't you know?
>gameplay loop
Never really understood this term. Isn't that just gameplay? And hey, I liked the solo Dana sections. If we got more of that, then I'd say the modern Ys games can finally rival the Ark ones.
The things that like this gay shit don't qualify as "people". I thought Falcom was better than this.
>Panzer Dragoon: Remake is a refreshed version of Panzer Dragoon. The original version of the game had its premiere on the Sega Saturn console in 1995 and was well received by both players and critics. The entire Panzer Dragoon series has been repeatedly remade and released on many platforms. The last re-launch took place in April 2018 on Xbox One, where players can play Panzer Dragoon Orta with a backward compatibility. The new version of the game will be characterized by a completely new graphics compatible with today's standards and several modifications of the game, making it more attractive to modern players, while remaining faithful to the original in terms of story.
Calm down, bro, they called it a she for now. I'd be lying if I said I didn't want another Ricotta, especially with that design.
I love Astolfo!
>Not being able to appreciate both cute girls and cute boys
Imagine having such shit taste
You got Cold Steel pandering to the fujobait audience according to the Sen IV polls. Falcom's already way ahead of the game in pandering to certain types of people.
Just play the DS Lufia game for your good ending lmao
>Reminding me that everything I love is dead
The gameplay loop is the "do X so Y happens so you have to do X again", not necessarily just the gameplay. The gameplay would be the battling. The gameplay loop would be the running around battling to craft/get survivors, so you can run around more. It's a poor loop.
Some people need a nudge, a push, and sometimes a hard reality check that their favorite game series are dead and it's time to adventure on to new games. Shit sucks bro, I can relate, but it's a catharsis that must be purged eventually.
fuck you dude
y's this allowed?
They printed only a few copies at launch and didn't bother for a reprint, iirc.
You're not wrong regarding the first part of your post but fuck the party-system Ys games, I hate them.
For me, it was peak Adol. Him adventuring into unknown lands, slicing up monsters to killer music, fighting off some of the most challenging bosses I've ever faced, and just the general feel of it, I guess. Ark kinda did that too, but the combat and speed was kinda limited in comparison.
This was carefully cultivated and tested shitpost for maximum effect in /fg/. Well done adolfag.
and I brought his good word to Yea Forums based adolchad
Really? Fuck, why is everything going digital these days.
>unknown lands
wut? 90% of the areas in Oath were either inhabited or ruins. 8 is the most "unknown" territory.
I mean, generally unexplored to Adol. Shit's always a new adventure for him, whether in the big city, forests, or small villages and ruins.
Just make a new Dragoon game you dumbfucks
For me it has Ark beat in just a general gameplay sense with stuff like the little item pickups/sword swings/magic that isn't super limited, and (despite some duds) has overall more enjoyable bosses than Ark. I like Ark but I really hated almost every boss I fought in that game
she killed millons
Even if this is a bait post, it still really fucking hurts to see the length of that list of series, some containing my favorite games of all time, that actually died out. Fuck, man, the nostalgia from playing them as a kid at night just hurts too much.

>TWEWY is dead and sucked into the void that is Kingdom Hearts
Well fuck you too
Yea Forums's emotions absolutely fucking obliterated, holy fuck
Looks ok, I hope Falcom can pull it off.
I really like the look of the verticality and Adol's claw, reminds me of the Claw's kino gameplay. It definitely looks like it's in its development stage, but knowing Falcom's short dev cycles, I have faith that they'll pull through this empty world.
It's too bad my favorite Ys girl gets 0 love by anyone ever.

>Mobile artist manages to capture the spirit of Urushihara's art better than the remake
I get Urshihara isn't as young as he used to be so they got someone else, but they could have just used the mobile game artist.
They want that Soulsborne audience, judging by the Gothic aesthetic of the Prison City and the main cast.
The new art for the langrisser 1 characters look fine, but even if you don't like it there's an option for urushihara art (he even drew the new girl). Also the phone game has excellent art and decent gameplay.
Mobile artist is a chink.
Nips would literally riot in the streets in they had a chink do the art for the actual game.
The issue isn't the art, the issue is the god awful worse than the mobage troop sprites.
Explain yourself. Why is it "shitty"?

Man, this list is tough for the heart if you are a general JRPG fan.

based and doodpilled
Disgaea always changes slower than other JRPG series because NIS is conservative with the gameplay changes, but the evolution is there. If you don't believe me, then compare D1 with D5 and you will see how much the gameplay improved. It is always slowly with Disgaea, but I find it better for the sake of stability.
Adding many new features each new game while mostly ignoring the groundwork of past games is one of the things that killed Final Fantasy, Chrono and other JRPG series.
Please don't tell me that you consider gambling hundreds to thousands of dollars for PNGs real games. And Neptunia is the poster-child for bottom-of-the-barrel weeb games that appeal to otakus with no real gameplay. There's a reason every Nep thread turns into a waifudump, I think.
I don't consider any games real games.
I'm a weeb and I like 2d girls and still wouldn't touch a Neptunia game. They look low quality.

Ark of Napishtim but with Origin quality bosses would have been the best Ys game but theyve already moved onto this partybased flashguard shit
>Implying it's not true.
Sorry. If it's any consolation, it's impressive that he managed to be the biggest edgelord in a game with a literal demonified claw-using antihero and Kishgal.
>Ark of Napishtim
What, so three sword swings and a barebones magic system? At least add Oath combat to the description, then it'd be kino.
Better bosses and combat than Ark
Better world, level design, and sense of adventure than Origin
he is right though
His banter was 10/10 anyways and I love him for it
Oh no no no no no, the absolute fucking House of Fact just got BTFO (Blown The Fact Out)
Why is she such a dunce anyway? I was expecting her to be a random village girl or something, but she's supposedly the highest of high nobles.
i just want to play as adol god dammit
It has a better feel of a world and adventure than Origin, but Origin was more streamlined, for better or worse.
Level design I would heavily dispute, some sections just are straight corridors and clunky platforming sections that you can just feel was an ill-fated attempt at staying loyal to Wanderer's side-scrolling environments, Origin's levels may get a bit repetitive but their overall structure is solid.
and why the FUCK does she have oven mitts. everything about her is fucking terrible. really regret using her for my first origins playthrough because she almost ruined it

Man the transition from the rest of the game to Darm tower is so good. You cant go back and the rules of the game completely change. It's amazing how they did so much with so little in the first game.
Wow, I didn't know Yea Forums could still have some sense and good taste left in it.
I mean more in the sense of a larger world to explore with the possibility to go to areas you shouldnt be in.
Reminder that it will actually be good and one of the best games in the series
Ah yeah, that makes more sense.
not if i have to play a fagot anime cat girl. at the very least all i can hope for is that they drop the party system
Gonna nut once nighttime is shown
If the general upward pattern of improvement that Falcom's been doing with Ys since its modern games continues, then perhaps so. I liked VIII, so I'll probably get this once it comes over here.
Is this how a soldier feels when he goes past the time he expected to live in?
Guys I know you're excited about ys but could you please not post about it in the cancerous jrpg threads we usually get on Yea Forums? Keep ys IX threads shitpost-free.
Can anyone even stop this one-man army/adventurer?
>cancerous jrpg threads
Don't worry, I don't think WRPG-kun is here to shit on any turn-based games any time soon.
It's incredible how little popularity Ys and Falcom have in the grand scheme of things when they are actually one of the oldest and most innovative companies
She probably never got a good education because a) she's a Tovah but can't use magic, so she probably got neglected from a lot of essential information on the grounds that she couldn't use it and b) her dad was MIA (actually KIA) and couldn't give her a proper upbringing as a result. All she got is training from the knights, and the knights in Origin are chumps.
Those magic fuckers known as JDK practically invented and elevated the video game music industry as something viable and worthy and I love them for it:

I fear that Ys 9 will be when Ys will finally hits it off and becomes a really popular series
It has been becoming steadily more popular over the years and with a little marketing and NISA not sabotaging their own sales 9 feels like it would sell a lot as long as it is a decent game
It just has it all

>decent difficulty level that feels good to master but also isn't too hard if you don't want to

Yunica plays great (essentially Oath Adol with better magic) while Hugo's gameplay is a mismatched Pocky & Rocky mess (nothing wrong with P&R, but holy fuck does it not work in Ys), going with Yunica first is definitely the best option.
And if you seriously think that characters and their designs are more important than gameplay, then you're playing the wrong damn series.
Wow, completely forgot about day/night cycle. Night time might be cool if they have specific events around it.
Adol has ascended to an unstoppable enigma. It's already too late.
The excessive use of waifubait so far isn't filling me with confidence. Hopefully they haven't let that infect this series as well.
>Ys IX falling for the "Giant open world with nothing in it" meme
Oh no.
Her dad died and she can't use magic, it's amazing they didn't throw her off the fucking floating island for being an innate failure like those malformed babies in 300 or something.
>I fear that Ys 9 will be when Ys will finally hits it off and becomes a really popular series
Not if he gets into Smash first
No Ys game has ever been open world before, why would this one? Besides, it's alpha footage that they're showing us. I'd happily rip it apart if this was the final product, but I'm holding back judgement for now.
Can I play Claw's route from the start in the vita version of origin? I played the other routes on PC already.
Doubtful. I think VIII did a decent job of increasing interest in the west, but Ys won't blow up with 9 without something drastically accessible.
I'm not good at this
Skeptical of modern Falcom, but I agree we'll just have to wait for now. The Dengeki reveal was pretty bad, but they were adamant on how much stuff we'll actually get to do within the city itself, considering it'll take up a large portion of the entire map. Also wouldn't be surprised if they delayed like they did with VIII.
You did good. Pain is history, after all.
Based and reasonablepilled. Have an Adol on me.
I think there's going to be more to it, considering the title of the game.
We must know what we have lost, so that we can go on new adventures with fresh baggage. You did good, kid.

>waifubait
You mean like every single other game?
Because it's honestly retarded how people cry about waifubait when Feena was as shallow waifubait as it gets
Only difference now is that the waifubait use nu-anime artstyles that you don't like and the games have more dialogue and story so it is more apparent how waifubait
As long as the games are still good who the fuck cares
the earliest video of 8 looked empty as fuck too and turns out it ended up being the Ys game with the literal best sense of exploration and adventure
Plus 8 was basically "open world" and the only thing that prevented it was the vita's hardware limitations
There is no reason to doubt Falcom at this point, I lost my faith in them after Celceta but it's clear they realized their mistakes

Drakengard was never good and Nier was a huge improvement, but Automata was a mediocre sequel that only got far more attention because of Platinum's name and the fan service.
I'm glad Ys is still doing well. I finished 8 last week and aside from the utterly retarded Nameless section it was one of the best entries.

They'll never surpass Ricotta, so they may as well go full faggot.

It was fine in 7 because the damage types weren't that important but then Celceta and 8 made it so if you weren't using the right damage type it'll take forever to kill anything.
Dude's far too adventurous to be contained at this point in time
yunica plays like slow adol with old oath abilities. she sucks. hugo is something new in the series and when youre done you get claw who is the best character in the game. no reason to ever touch yunica cause shes only there to have a second character to pick
But Disgaea is dead and 5 was the worst game in the series.
>What's the magic in it, I wonder?
Only one way to find out: play it, my man.
Play Disgaea 5 or Disgaea 1 Complete, give the series a chance.
Who knows? You might enjoy it. The actual main game only takes a few days to complete and that part is grindless, you only need to grind in the postgame.

You never see people complain about naked twins being part of the title screen and health bar in 1 or how fucking useless and dumb Feena is
Meanwhile the second a character has cat ears or there is a brown loli everyone gets triggered, nevermind the fact that Ark already had brown elves (who not only wanted to fuck Adol, their very father wanted Adol to fuck them too) and a brown elf loli with bedroom eyes that wanted to fuck Adol
No they're not, literally every fucking game Compile Heart makes you fags say "ok dudes I know every other game they made was shit but this new one is good", and then it turns out to actually be shit. That company will never make a single game worth playing.
I'd lock her down
He's a good adventurer, I like him.
Ys is considered a classic in Japan but the SNES games sort of soiled its reputation, then it stayed niche after its resurgence because it was PC exclusive. It's climbing back into popularity over there though, but it will likely stay niche in the west since Falcom will never be able to grafics
I hope they unfuck his design. I loved 8's artist and character designs for the most part but Dogi's redesign was just awful.

>They can't be that bad when we just had Mr. Sardines in the last game as a main character.
Except Valvatorez was one of the best characters in the entire franchise.
>Missed a good Ys thread on Yea Forums
Feels bad
At least the name is actually composed of understandable words instead of whatever gibberish "Adol" and "Dogi" are supposed to mean, you fuck
See this guy was actually pretty fun but he'd be better if the hitbox for getting him with the fireball wasn't so finnicky, the amount of damage you did to him with each one depending on the slighest change in your angle could make it only hit for like 9 damage.
>Except Valvatorez was one of the best characters in the entire franchise.
Is this sarcasm? Mr.Sardines was the most utterly dull character in the entire franchise. His quirk felt so forced and it wasn't even funny. Valvatorez is a turd in the wind.
Where do I start wuth Ys user?
You missed out on Chadol the absolute madman reminding everyone on Yea Forums that his series is still alive and theirs aren't, fellow Lilia fan.
BASED CHADOLPOSTER
I suspect that you're the sort of person who complains about Valvatorez not having any character development while failing to understand that he's meant to be a developed character who mentors the rest through their character development.
Also even if you don't care for Valvatorez there's no way you could possibly see him or anyone else in 4 being as bad as Usalia in 5 and her "if we kill her we're just like her" bullshit.
They're all standalone, so you can jump into any game from any point like Final Fantasy. But check this guide if you want more guidance:
Maybe it's a Schrödinger's cat
8 then 1/2 so you can witness perfection then experience feena who is an inferior copy to dana
>Also even if you don't care for Valvatorez there's no way you could possibly see him or anyone else in 4 being as bad as Usalia in 5 and her "if we kill her we're just like her" bullshit.
Usalia is just a little dumb girl from a peaceful netherworld, it is within her character to act that way. Granted, it is stupid but Usalia isn't supposed to be intelligent.
Ravioli, Ravioli, don't bully the bunny demonloli.

>Vita/psp ports aren't good.
Fuck I only have a toaster laptop.
How can such a cute girl be so strong?
Dude, that's fucking fine. The Ark games were designed to be run on mid-2000's Windows-era toasters (like 2005-2006), so you should be okay. The modern games, not so much, I think. Chronicles might work as well, though.
Ys's town themes are underrated, specifically this one, Redmont and the towns under occupation in VI
I unironically liked memories of celceta
Most of the games are really toaster friendly. Also do you care for story something? They have some continuity to them, even if the story isn't usually that heavy.
I can recommend an order if you do care for it.
Ys 1 + 2 | Ys Ark (Technically Ark happens way later, but it's the first in the engine, and it won't mention other games as much) | Ys Oath | Ys Origin | Ys Celceta | Ys 5 (if you want, it's a SNES game and usually considered rather weak) | Ys 7 | Ys 8

Only the sword is slower, the axe is the same damn speed and her spells are straight up an improvement in terms of combat functionality. You can even tell by comparing them directly in the Arena.

And that's literally all that's good that can be said about it. And not all new things are good anyway.
>when youre done you get claw who is the best character in the game.
Claw is good, admittedly. I still prefer Yunica, however.
>no reason to ever touch yunica cause shes only there to have a second character to pick
Her scenario is the most "vanilla" and is a good introduction to all the essential characters, Hugo's is only good for building on Epona and showing that a) Toal is probably a good guy and b) the Fact clan is probably dodgy as hell (as if you needed the scenario to figure that shit out). Of the two, Yunica's is the most balanced, Hugo's scenario just shows that he's a tool who steals weapons from ghosts and chooses evil at the drop of a hat.
Sonoda's arrangement of Ancient Legend stands out the most
He's got a good mocking face tho
Still better than Ernst. At least he's not a faggot.
