I think that's the first time I've seen Project Sylpheed posted on Yea Forums. It's tons of fun, basically Ace Combat in space with the anime bullshit cranked up to max
Shame the 360 can't actually handle how hectic it gets

Fuckin' loved me some infinite space.
The combat graphics were super fucking ugly and both space and man combat sucked, but it did a great job of being a space opera and got you really invested in all the crazy shit going on.
Plus the real gameplay was customizing your ships.

Never played the wii version, but was one of mu first vita games. Love it despite not know/caring what's going on in the story.

It's looks pretty good emulated when you can actually see the models

You can tell this game was made before Jurassic Park by looking at the dinosaurs.

I still go back and play this every so often.

describe the niche that the game you post appeals to

I was at a lan party and wanted to take a breather from multiplayer stuff and pulled Project Sylpheed out of a pile of games off a whim.
Then suddenly I'm infatuated with it.
Felt like a combination of Ace Combat and Freespace to me.

>Play this
>Have fun for about two hours
>Suddenly every enemy ship is incredibly powerful and rapes me with no clue of how to not get destroyed
I don't get it.

Here's how to win the game:
>back the fuck off
>hit dodge
>wait for your action bar to max out
>move in
>wait for them to launch a full power volley
>they miss, because you have dodge up
>their dodge goes down because they fired
>thus, you fire a full power volley into them
>then you back the fuck off again and repeat the process

>>they miss, because you have dodge up
That's the part where you lost me.

Scifi space opera anime JRPG fans with a focus on spaceships so kind of to mecha fans too

I really could not get into the combat.

That is not how you play the game at all.
Like that is the worst way to play.

The best way is to

a flawed game but so damn good at the same time. i'd kill for a sequel or remaster or something

>tfw we will never get a remake

>1st half of the game
>Wow this story is neat and engaging!

My tactics are a little different from his, but I'll go over the basics with you;
Your options are split into a RPS combo. You have Normal, which is just a regular shot, Barrage, which takes more Command Bar, but does triple shots, and Dodge, which is the weird one.

Dodge isn't actually a "Defend" equivalent, because using Dodge doesn't do shit against "Normal". In fact, I think it actually INCREASES the chance of Normal hitting, but it's been a while since I played, so that might be wrong. What Dodge does do it make Barrage useless. The chances of even a single hit from Barrage hitting a ship with Dodge on is basically nill.

So, because of how AI works, if you back off and let both of your command bars fill, the AI will think "Oh, I should use Barrage, because I have all this command bar" even if you have Dodge activated.

What I do is build my fleet for close quarters, back off, activate Dodge, wait till I'm full up again, then get into range of only the enemies longest range weapon. They fire, usually with Barrage and miss totally, or even if they use Normal, it's still only limited damage thanks to the range, then I rame into as close a range as possible where all my weapons are in range, then I dump my entire command bar on them, killing at least a couple ships, then back off and do the whole thing over again.

playing this game without having any clue what you're doing is suffering. you more than likely set yourself up for failure toward the end by not having the proper evolutions to beat the final boss. great game though, fantastic concept not replicated to this day.

I was meaning to imply that they just hit me anyway.

Oh. Well then like I said, let them build up a lot of bar. The AI is dumb enough to use Barrage is it has bar to burn.

I mean even if they use barrage they still hit me anyway despite the RPS ostensibly being in my favour.

You know that Dodge goes away if you fire, right?

Yes.

Well then I don't know what you're doing to fuck it up, because Barrage on dodge has like a ~5% chance to hit.

fucking loved this game despite its flaws, all the ship customization and variety of options available was 10/10

REMAKE NEVER EVER

Kino. Shame we'll never get it back because of all the copyright bullshit.

Game was amazing, so many ups and downs. And it was a 60-80 hour game, with mediocre gameplay but the story was so fucking good. The ships as well.

>XSEED will never fix the lava slimes
>Falcom will never make a new Xanadu game like this

Fuckin' bullet hell srpg.
Who would have thought?

Seeing it get a spirit in Smash made my heart tingle a bit.

This really needs a remake.

It's pretty slow paced, but I like it. And its risk/reward mechanic feels satisfying.

Just an awsome roguelike, with a well realized retro-futurism/space-pulp setting, awesome mutation system and somewhat easy to understand mechanics. Good UI also, which is a bonus. Still remember one of my esper (kinda like a psychic, only has mental mutations instead of physical ones) playthroughs where I picked evil twin mutation at char gen (an evil twin of yourself from another universe, occasionally appears and hunts you down, also he has all of your abilities). Anyway I was quite high level, and had several dangerous abilities, but among them was one that let me make clones of myself, the evil twin appeared and used it himself, I immiediatly followed suit, and it all ended in disaster as we all pyrokinesis'd the map ablaze, with water explosively turning into steam from the heat, and killing everything.

Never "got" this game. Are you just supposed to try firing the multi-missle attack in the line of fire all the time or was there anything else to it?

unironically an actual good game

What is it thats wrong after the timeskip?

I don't remember anything wrong with the slimes. What is it that needs fixing?

slimes explode when they die and the AoE covers the entire room instead of just a small area

this, so much fun

Nintendo shilled this pretty hard but then sold 0 copies in my area.

>good DS games thread
I'm down. I liked this more than eat-treean phallusy.
