Overrated garbage like Chrono Trigger and Final Fantasy (especially 7)
>gotta find Ciri before the Wild Hunt catches her!
>hold on dude gotta spend 50 hours foraging through the woods first
Every JRPG.
Every WRPG
>Commander, we have to rescue the crew or they'll be killed by the Collectors!
>Just a minute, I still have some loyalty missions to complete
>If you don't immediately go to the rescue mission, you get treated to a cutscene of a prominent member of your crew being liquefied directly in front of you while she's conscious and screaming in agony
>The game makes it very clear that this is your fault and you could've avoided it
Man, Mass Effect 2 did not fuck around. I miss that Bioware.
I think you could make one or two missions before that?
You literally have all the time in the world in Chrono Trigger for the most part since time traveling but true for Final Fantasy
Don't you have unlimited time in CT?
Yup, in that case the priority character survives, but most others still get turned into teriyaki sauce.
>the main objective of the PS4 God of War is to take a small cloth bag of ashes to the top of a mountain
>everything that happens between your cabin and the summit is side crap
Somep eople always get turned to jam to feed teh reaper. You have room for exactly one Loyalty mission (that is, usually legions)
I ignored all stuff like that, did all available missions, everything I could find, before starting the final one. Everyone survived.
>all the JRPGs in the universe
>he picks the one where the party has A LITERAL TIME MACHINE
I'm impressed to be honest.
>Chrono trigger
Nigger the thing your trying to stop doesn't even happen till 1000 years after the MC's time.
I got one with the exact oppisot problem
>game has a charcter that shows up at the very end
>game only gives you time to do his unique mision then unless you want a worse ending you have to start the final mission after that
>character is probably the most interesting and unique party member in the game with a ton of interesting interactions most players will miss
You act like that shit was difficult in the least, fucking zoomers.
>tfw my mild completionist side helped me get through that with everyone alive on my blind run
I know it pretty much just comes down to getting those loyalty missions done and then not being retarded, but it still felt good.
Too bad I gave up on EA by the time three came out.

>tfw the Cosmonots are planning on taking over the world and the only guy who can stop them is busy fishing, robbing everyone blind, training his skills to absurd numbers, filling his pockets with weapons and junk and courting four women at once so they'll join him on his ship.

Have you ever played Suikoden? Because Suikoden takes it to a new level.
>WOAH THERE IS A WAR/WHATEVER GOING ON
>WE WILL ALL DIE
>WE MUST FORM AN ARMY FOR THE FINAL FIGHT-
>-but wait I must gather every single one of these 256 people through their inane, time-gated, missable questlines or we don't get the canon ending.
>missing a single one means you still don't get the ending
At least they can't randomly die in battles. Oh, wait...
Don't you hate it when a comic author shills their shit on Yea Forums through video game threads?
>AAAAARGH! I'VE FALLEN UNDER THE CLOUD SEA AND NOW I'M TRAPPED IN THIS DESOLATE, FORGOTTEN CITY

>you got to beat the bad guy!

No, I'm just pointing out a rare example where a game presented you with a time sensitive ultimatum and then punished you if you didn't respect the fact it was time sensitive. Usually games drone on about the urgency of the storyline, but they're rarely willing to do anything about it.
I think you're mistaking the Normandy crew getting killed with party members getting killed in the final mission. You can always guarantee the entire strike team's survival regardless of how long you wait to do the final mission, but Kelly gets jellied if you do too many quests after the part where they all get kidnapped before proceeding to the collector base.
Is the princess the mother or...?
I don't think that's implied.
you sound like you suck at video games
Skyrim.
>Can sleep for as long as you want
>In-game months or years pass
>Not a single thing changes
Then why do those kids show up with hooves?
>princess kidnapped
>she left a year ago
>the hero's quest was a year
He probably left as soon as she was kidnapped and took a year to get there. The kids look a lot older than a year old so they're probably some other maiden's
Recently, FF15.
>Dude, your dad was assassinated, let's go ride chocobos.
Can't think of a better example of ludonarrative dissonance.
the comics are like a continuous work, so the kids just got there in another strip
It doesn't look like the demon has hooves, since there's a hard edged outline that seems to represent the delineation between the side of his foot and the sole. I think they're just the demon's minions, mocking the adventurer.
I think that is the unspoken joke, the kids are demonish but clearly don't have their father's face. I think the joke is that the princess that he kidnapped dumped him & left him a single father. And I think that's a better joke than 'you're so slow'.
Jet Force Gemini
For fuck's sake the tiny guys aren't anyone's kids
Looks like you were reading too much into it.
How the fuck were we supposed to know that?
Final Fantasy VI
They really should have disabled fast travel for sections like that
I want to have to massage that demon king's feet after he beats me at video games
Kefka was already done, I don't think this one counts somehow.
>Kelly.
Who?
He still wanted to destroy more shit as said in the final battle itself, so he wasn't done quite yet.
Pretty much your secretary.
A romance option for either sex.
The hooves on them implied a demon/human hybrid so I assumed
I completely ignored that character during my play through. Is there some reason that a person would want to romance her?
The demon has normal feet tho
A lesbian sex option for someone that hates the color blue, I guess?
None because only subhuman retards want main quest timers in their fucking games
