Is this any good?

Do you want to do hellish grinding? Then play that, especially customizing coins that can mess the enemies across the map.
Then theres pic related, quite hard as well but you don't need to go far in grinding to win, although doing quest for right person is needed if you want to save yourself alot of pain.
Jayden Smith
It's alright. Easier than the original at least, I think the easy difficulty takes out permadeath. So that's going to save you a lot of grinding.
Jackson Allen
I was recommended it as an alternative to disgaea, so I though it did not have much grinding. I shall then avoid it.
I just want something difficult and focused. Preferably no grinding at all, but I get that it might be an impossibility for many games of it's kind if they are still going to be difficult.
Luis Wood
Do you like absolute garbage that's also amazing?

Ryan Green
Then Radiant Historia. If you have a 3DS, then go for Perfect Chronology. You don't need to grind on this, its easy enough to go normally, and due to its mechanics, other characters will go underleveled.
The new art looks bad compared to the old one.
Michael Barnes
I know this isnt what you are asking for, but what about VC games? Like most games of NES era are short but can be challenging (you know, "NES challenging") and I believe are perfect for trips and whatnot
Benjamin Fisher
That's what I usually have gone for. Already gone through castlevanias, mega men and ghosts and goblins, albeit the last one is where I meet my match.
Looking for something more substantial, and I have an urge for both strategy games and JRPGs at the moment.
Is there any substantial improvements in the remake? I would like a physical copy but it seems I would have to import if I do not settle for digital.
Yes
Connor Rivera
Etrian Odyssey Untold 2!
Nathaniel King
Perfect, because FSR is objectively a 3/10 game but subjectively 10/10. Without saying too much though, you need to play The Silver Case first to fully understand it.
Asher Wood
Basically all of this, especially Ghost Trick and EBA.
Brody Nelson
Ok, apart from the extremely popular "unique oddities" mentioned by others, here you have some others real unique oddities for the DS (3DS is not hard to find):

Zubo
Avalon Code
Custom Robo (more popular, I know, but good)

I've had my etrian fill for a while. Maybe next year.
Is silver case good/interesting then? And is it short? Cannot start too big projects yet, need to leave pretty soon.
Decent list, though I have quite a few of them already.
Infinite space is one I have been sorta interested in as well. How is it like?
Bentley Jones
I loved Lux Pain so much but the translation was fucking awful. It reads like it was done by a bunch of mudslimes translated from jp to china to hindi to english
Eli Cook
>Is there any substantial improvements in the remake?
I only played the DS version but what I know is that there are new nodes, a new ending and new sidequests.
Colton Russell
DO I?
Brayden Cruz
It was really a "Pain" to read, yeah.
Kevin Martin
Silver Case is really interesting, and somewhere around the 10-15 hour mark.
The final game in the trilogy is 25th Ward: The SIlver Case, which is also around the same length.
Ian James
Shit, I forgot Avalon code existed, was gonna get that one. The gimmick sounded really interesting.
Any in particular you recommend otherwise? Wont be able to get them all right now, and should probably just emulate the majority when I get back.
As I said I am in the mood for RPG and strategy, and vastly prefer turn-based to real-time.
Lucas Gutierrez
im currently playing this.
what the fuck..
Logan Johnson
I know, right?
Christopher Sanchez
Theres Summon Night X on DS, seems that he forgot to mention, was translated a year ago I think. Its turn based.
Bentley Kelly
If you want a turn-based one, apart from all those mentioned by others, from my list I'd say that Super Robot Taisen then.
Colton Lopez
Play Endless frontier for a surprisingly fun JRPG
Brandon Price
I always thought those were massive anime crossover games, which would make it hard for a non-viewer to appreciate the story. But this may be a misunderstanding?
Anthony Turner
>Infinite space is one I have been sorta interested in as well. How is it like?
Okay-ish combat, and a really good story where you go from teenage anime twink to thirty-something prison-hardened alpha chad space pirate captain - pic related. Combat can get a little unfair until you realize that the AI will always barrage if it has the meter for it and dodge doesn't wear off until you attack, meaning you can kite until you've got full meter and dodge, move in to bait out an enemy barrage, then counter-barrage their ass into oblivion.
Once you know that, though, game's fukkin fantastic. Collecting crew, playing tetris with ship modules, the combat and the story all come together for a hugely underrated game.
Juan Wilson
Isn't summon night the games where girls kiss girls?
Juan Bailey
Thats Swordcraft Story. Well, thats what make it famous on GBA I think. Tears Crown is more hetero on this case, you can play as the Prince Dylan or the Princess Farah, then ship characters by the usual night talks.
Grayson Perry
Hotel Dusk and Last Window.
Hunter Morris
Wait they translated tears crown? I gave up on summon night translations because it seemed like it was never going to happen.
Asher Torres
How's Culdcept Revolt? Thinking about trying it out.
Julian Lewis
>Wait they translated tears crown?
Every time. I think I've seen this a dozen times everytime I posted Tears Crown on rec threads. Makes me chuckle a bit.
>I gave up on summon night translations because it seemed like it was never going to happen.
Well, I'm on the same before but someone just finished translating it. Got to check the forums sometimes. I'm looking forward to that someone who is currently translating Shining Blade on PSP.
Anthony Sanders
Thanks anyway user, my childhood self will finally get to play this game. Now if only they could finish translating Swordcraft Story 3 so i can enjoy it in english this time.
Jace Taylor
Though it was interesting, but never fell for it. The game has a system to ease new player in by suggesting every move you should take. The problem is that It constantly felt like cheating. Would have preferred a more substantial, standard training mode.
Brody Jenkins
I picked this up, played almost all the way to the end, i think, and stopped playing there for a year and a half. Now i want to finish but i am absolutely lost in what to do. What to do? Replay?
Dylan Brown
>Now if only they could finish translating Swordcraft Story 3 so i can enjoy it in english this time.
Surprisingly, they updated their version to 10.1, Seems that the project is still alive. I don't know when it will be finished though so don't expect too much.
Got the end game problems I see. Depends if you still know your progress. This is the reason I don't put down JRPGs in fear of losing my progress in the plot.
Jaxon Campbell
Inazuma Eleven
Benjamin Fisher
I got to the point where i find the nose guy is your uncle, how far am i from finishing the game?
