Phantasy Star 4, it's fucking great.

PC doesn't have good RPG games, and it's a FACT

Fallout 1&2 obviously

most DQ are good

They are, but he specified PC. If you want to emulate, then any of them.

There is still time for them to pull a sneaky and delay it for a timed pc exclusive with Epic. The fact that is even a possibility really makes me hate video game companies now.

How is that hard mode when all the best turn based RPGs are on PC?

Speaking of octopath. Recently reached chapter 3 and I feel overlevelled for regular mobs but the bosses seem to just smoke me no matter what.
I really fucking hate when this happens, it shows that the devs have done a poor job of balance.
Recommended levels are nonsense too. Like how the fuck am I supposed to beat Alfyn's chapter 3? It's the lowest in recommended levels and my team is mostly around there except for my main who is above and yet the fight does too much damage to outheal, even if I use all my items.
It's possible that my equipment sucks though as I am very stingy and never buy anything.

>everyone ITT whining about denuvo
I thought Yea Forums's excuse for hating it was always performance reasons

I like its comfy environments and tongue-in-cheek dialogue. It reminds me of Dreamcast/PS2 era JRPGs which I sorely miss.

>Speaking of octopath. Recently reached chapter 3 and I feel overlevelled for regular mobs but the bosses seem to just smoke me no matter what.

That's pretty much how all jrpgs seem to be designed. 99.99% of the gameplay consists of random encounters that are completely braindead, and the only modicum of challenge comes from boss battles. And not even for any interesting reason, but usually becuause they are HP sponges that are immune to status effects.

druidstone

TLR only got a "HD" remaster for PS4, not a remake.

>It's possible that my equipment sucks though as I am very stingy and never buy anything.
stop being retarded

I play lots of JRPGS and the last time I had this problem was in Dragon Quest 8 when you first fight Dhoulmagus.

>mixed ratings

Stop responding to WRPG-Kun.

I'm a stingy jew you fuck, not retarded.

People who reply to me to dictate who I should and should not reply to annoy me more than any autist could.
I can ignore retarded people by myself when they prove themselves to be worth ignoring thank you very much.

>stop being retarded
How is that being retarded? Buying equipment in jrpgs is usually a bad idea, because they have linear equipment progression, and the +7 attack sword you acquire in village A will quickly get outclassed by the +9 attack sword you can buy in village B.

>I can ignore retarded people by myself
You evidently can't, imbecile.
Good job on ruining threads for everyone because you're too new and too stupid to know when you're being baited by a notorious shitposter.
You're such a massive retard, holy shit.

Shit, you're right. They haven't even given a word if they even WANT to bring it to PC.
Guess find a key or pirate it.

Only person I see attempting to ruin this thread is you. Just letting you know. You will be ignored from this point on, enjoy the fruits of your labor teacher.

How is that game worth 60 dollars? At first glance, I cant see what warrants thay price tag.

This is the worst pitch I think I have ever seen.

Romancing saga 3 rrmaster when?

>How is that game worth 60 dollars?
It isn't. Just a few days ago, a turn-based RPG with vastly better production values released at a third of that price. And that's actually a new game, unlike Octopath, which came out ages ago.

I'm close to buying Neverwinter Nights 1, should I do it? I played Neverwinter Nights 2 when it came out, barely played on my shitty blue led fan "gamer" computer from 2008, but I had a lot of fun.

I'd like to know as much as you do.
Unfortunately, there's no news on the horizon for either that or Scarlet Grace's western release, outside of the fact that they're working on both.

>Neverwinter Nights 1
It's made to play on custom multiplayer servers. If you're planning on playing alone prepare for the most boring game that you have ever played.
Well that's exaggerated but I honestly cannot recommend NwN1 as a single player game.

Geneforge

I see both positive and negative reviews mentioning that it's more of a puzzle game than an RPG. Doesn't seem very good.

Resonance of Fate should not be missed. Turnbased but with a unique and interesting battle system. The characters are all armed with guns, and the main mechanic is about attack the enemy from different directions to target or destroy pieces of armor. There's also a trade off between dealing damage or breaking their healthbar into smaller pieces, since draining any health bar gives you your main resource, Bezels.

It's decent, but nothing really special. The soundtrack is probably the best thing about it.

what do you guys think about

Operencia the stolen sun

Just took a look at it. Seems alright but I'm not into dungeon crawlers so I wouldn't be interested either way most likely.

I found the music in Legend of Heroes became gradually better the further I got.

Octopath Traveler is mediocre as fuck.

I'd say King's Bounty series, but they're more adventure/exploration games with turn-based battles, than typical RPGs. Basically what HoMM would be without economy/citybuilding layer.
Other game is Disciples 2, but again, not a typical RPG.

The PC graphics are much better due to higher resolution. You can also download the Jap voices if you want. On the PSP you're stuck with the eng dub.

There is also a "mod" that adds Vita's Evolution stuff to the third game which as far as I can tell was only released in Japan: gbatemp.net/threads/release-trails-in-the-sky-the-3rd-evolution-english-patch.531268/

>Hardmode: No emulated games

That's not hard at all.

what happened with this game anyway

It looks like "Generic RPGmaker title: the game".

What's so good about it?

Attached: 1545606237067.png (1267x785, 99K)

Each attack that you have has a damage and wait value. For example you can have
>longsword 8 atk 6 wait
>mythril sword 20 atk 15 wait
>shield +13 def 8 wait
>thunder 35 mag atk 20 wait

So if you choose longsword, it'll take 5 turns to do 8 damage. The best part is that they tell you how long the enemies have before they attack you and what kind of attack they'll do. So it becomes a balance of keeping an eye on the enemies turn counter to see when they're about to hit you and try guarding it with your shield or doing enough damage to kill the enemy before they get to attack.

So let's say you're fighting a monster with 18hp and will take 17 turns to attack, you should go for the mythril sword to kill it right away. If you're fighting something that has a 5 wait, you should block with your shield and then attack on the next turn, etc.

Pillars of Eternity 2 just got a turn-based combat update. It's one of the better DnD derivatives out there.

Majority of Yea Forums really missed out on this and the drama behind it. Dev is the best shitposter ever.

>the music is tales tier
opinion discarded, even if you wish it was as good as the Ys series, you have to be a fucking moron to think anything sounds as bad as sakuraba mass produced shit

You can get games like final fantasy 7, grandia 2, and the last remnant on pc. Both south parks games too (not teally jrpgs, but they play like them).

name another game with a similar engine, destruction mechanics, physics. jagged alliance is gimped, so is xcom in comparison.

Recently, lads that did Grimlock released a turn based RPG I think. Druidsomething

More mechanics do not make a game better. I had fun with XCom (the DOS one) and this game bored me. Every encounter plays out the same, regardless of map. I don't remember what the trick was now, but there was One Correct Way to play the game that gave you the highest odds of success and there was no point in deviating from it ever.

I wanna know which are decent ports and which are irredeemable mobile port trash

Anything that isn't:

AMAZING, thank you very much bioware.

As says, pretty much just these. I'm not sure about Secret of Mana remake but it's probably fine.

which is the best final fantasy on steam if I've never played the series before?

Chrono Trigger has been fixed. I played through the entire game and it's fine. Most of the mobile shit has been patched out.

depends, I would just play from 1 to 15, but if you want to experience final fantasy I would play from 7 to 10, those 4 games are pretty varied stories with similar gameplay but enough differences to still be fresh

Final fantasy 4-5-6 are still worth a playthrough, but the combat is more classic and the graphics are pure pixel, so pick your poison

I think FFIX is the best starting point.

>Pillars of Eternity 2 just got a turn-based combat update. It's one of the better DnD derivatives out there.

>Pillars 2

The lead designer literally spend years talking about how much he dislikes D&D. It has very little resemblance except superficial stuff (e.g. class names).

What the FUCK

Too busy working to afford this game OP

is Last Remnant only for people who are really into JRPG battle systems, or is it enjoyable for the story, setting etc?

Easy. Men of War.

It has one of the best combat system i have ever seen. But it extreme player unfriendly.

>no emulated games
Fuck that. Download citra or Desmume and play DeSu2. You wont regret it

It's a SaGa game, so it's mostly for people who are into mechanics.
That said, it has some good narrative and lore, but like all SaGa games it's very, very hidden, in fact 90% of the entire lore and worldbuilding is completely optional, the main quest won't give you anything.
It has some pretty good characters and some really great stories here and there, like the rest of the series, people like Zolean, Caedmon, Pagus and his bros Sibal and Maddox, the lore behind the Remnants, the First Emperor etc., but as I said, it's all optional stuff that will require you to not only do optional quests but also puts many pieces of the puzzle together on your own, especially when it comes to everything regarding the first emperor.

Is it? I just saw it in the news and haven't played it yet.

which one is that

Not him, but D:OS 2 is way too easier to me. Lone Wolf breaks the game, armor system is stupid(hybrid damage characters/parties succ). Combat is more streamlined, which is good or bad depending on your view. Also while few tracks are excellent, Original Sin 1 has much better ost imo. D:OS2 is much more cheese-able thanks to the combat system.
Also most choices in Arx doesn't matter. Even if you pump the city full of deathfog
In the other hand, character creation is much better and combat can be lotsa faster compared to D:OS1. Also chapter based story can be more clearer, tho Nameless Island sucks.
Have you done no-sin run?

>most choices in Arx doesn't matter
Most of your choices in D:OS don't matter in general, D:OS is even guiltier of that, which makes me really, really salty.

The ost is what really drew me into buying it but it was repetitive and not well-paced at all... no actual interactions between party members that felt like actual bonding.

The ost and the art direction were fantastic though and i can understand some liked this game.

Surprisingly good

I still don't understand how people are surprised by this after 10 years.
The core battle system is the same, you have the same techs, most of the same magic, the character growth follows the same philosophy, it's based on RS3's commander mode and pretty much all the Remnants are named after iconic items in the series, there's even blatant cameos like the seven being a reference to the Seven Heroes.
Sure, it's a lot more linear unlike the rest of the series, and it doesn't have multiple MCs (although it was planned to, outside of the fact that it was originally meant to SaGa Frontier 3), but it's a SaGa game minus the lightbulbs.
Hell it even straight up resuses the same exact map system from the first Frontier.

how do I get into Wizardry, lads?

Infinity engine actually uses concurrently-executed turns, speed defines who attacks first in every turn but not how often one attacks etc.

Do you have a least an option to speed up the normal battles?
I'm addicted to this shit since Stranger of sword city had that feature.

I just think in D:OS2 it's much worse, as the game tries to be "your choices matter", but in the end its almost like ME3 three endings.
At least D:OS1 had one clear story for the MC's.
I just hate how good the 1st and 2nd chapter is in D:OS2. Third is boring and fourth has some nice puzzles and story moments, but with no pay-offs. Even in ending most re-caps and epilogue are about 2nd chapters unless you play Origin characters.

good half of passives in the tree are virtually useless, mainly all attack speed and attack recovery time due to initiative formula conversion. Game is pure slog with trivialized bosses and retardedly long battles. Very few skills to work with so you will end up auto attacking most of the time. I did full potd run in turn-based before 5.0 release and shit just boring to the brim.

Yeah, I agree with you on that.
Honestly, they should have made Act 2 focus exclusively on the sourcerer masters and make Bloodmoon island and the Blackpits parts of Act 3 since there's fuck all to do in there to begin with.
I can deal with the shitty combat, I can deal with the game having no real choices to speak of and being mostly flavour text, I can deal with murderhobo bullshit, I can deal with Act 4 being that small, but the jump in quality from Act 2 to Act 3 really ruins the game, and then you expect Act 4 to kind of leave you with a good flavour in your mouth once you finish the game, but it never does.

This is without considering just how disjointed act 3 is from the rest of the game, it feels like a filler act that leaves a lot of the stuff from act 2 like Tarquin forging Anathema, the possessed little kid, or pretty much all personal quests from the main characters unresolved just to push some nonconsequential bullshit that feels there just to give you a nudge about the whole cult of the one being true shit after all, and this is without mentioning how again, even there it leaves tons of stuff in that own questline unresolved, like that dude in Fort Joy saying he'd keep a close eye on you...and then he just disappears forever the moment you get out of Fort Joy, what the fuck?

Most of the Wizardry games are intensely dated, and not in a good way for most people. Unless you really, really want to play Wizardry specifically, avoid the earlier games in favor of newer ones or derivatives.

For example, the Japanese Wizardry games, Wizardry 8, Wizardry-clones like Elminage, etc, if you want to stay old-ish. For newer games, its just all the games on handhelds and PC.

how the fuck is a fucking board game an RPG
