"Guess the gaym by description of key moments" bread

Actually SOMEWHAT close (a couple of devs are same between both franchises, but companies and content, and even platforms, are absolutely different), but no cigar.

What game?

A series you've clearly didn't play jack shit of, because you're too young and underage of a zoo9mer toddler to remember it.

I wanna say Xenosaga?

Not in the slightest.

Mario & Luigi trilogy

>the girl who is hot in her panties for you is your mom
>the girl you love died a game ago
>the bad guy of the previous game was actually trying to stop something even worse from happening, and it turns out you were all just idiots fucking everything up
>a comic relief side character of the first game is the literal big bad now because his waifu died a horrible death in the first game, and his clone of her did the same in the second
>the first game in the series isn't actually the first game, it's a game with an entirely different name and is virtually unconnected until a surprise in the first game
>none of these events likely matter because the true ending sends you back in time with the possibility of setting everything right this time around

My turn.
>The world's completely fucked because a space colony crashed right into it
>Some science guy examines the wreckage of the crash; goes insane
>some reality warping phenomenons start popping up and violently killing people or making them insane and evil
>Science guy, acting through his assistant and an asshole, hire some private investigators to investigate the reality warp
>MC is a cop; Thinks this shit's really fishy
>Investigates the private investigators; They're all people who were killed prior to the events of this game, but are somehow back to life. MC kills them all a second time.
>As it turns out, science guy made the reality warping shit to institute his crazy-ass eugenics policy. MC goes to his house and kills him.
>Science guy also re-awakened an ancient, all-corrupting evil entity, basically for shits and giggles. MC kills it too.

Mega Man X6

Motherfucker, you've actually played the OP. My respect, d00d.

Bingo Bongo. Must not bee too good at this.

The only reason you made it difficult was because you purposefully mis-aligned the games order. The series in question is it's own series despite being related to what is technically the first game of the series. So you're citing the first game in the series as the second, when it's not.

>purposefully mis-aligned
Not in the slightest, kek. It's a direct-fucking-sequel, thus it's a second game, not a first one. Just because the name is different and it spawned several games in the franchise with that particular name, doesn't make it any less of a direct sequel of the very first game. Because plot. Maybe you haven't played the very first game thoroughly and didn't see the actual true ending? Like, the second game LITERALLY continues off of that (but you won't know that right from the beginning, literally in the middle as a massive plot twist, which is FUCKING GENIUS).

98% of Yea Forums can't decipher what you're even trying to fucking say you schizo

I figured it it out because I don't have shit taste in games and played a healthy swath of all kinds of games, why haven't you figured it out? Were you some kind of child playing garbage like Mass Effect and Halo when you should have been playing good games instead?

>you're citing the first game in the series as the second, when it's not
It IS, ffs. It's a DIRECT-fucking-sequel. It seems that you really haven't played the ACTUAL first game all that much/haven't played it to the very end, eh? Because if you'd did, you wouldn't ever have had questioned my methodology any ever at all.

When OP series came out and was relevant/alive such shit as Mass Effect wasn't around yet in the form of the very first game, if my memory is right. The OP is a literal zoomer toddler filter and casual-denier.

Most people don't even know the preceeding game even exists. And despite providing a bit of backstory for the first game, you can go the entire thing without needing it for context as they explain everything in the first game of the series. Also it has been years since I played either, but I only really remember about 4 characters tops from the entire thing that matter within the context of the story for the series preceeding it, and most of them die anyway or just don't really stay relevant past a certain point. Only the BBEG of the first and one other guy in the series is really relevant past the first, far as story goes.

Also just going to say I'm purposefully not naming anything just to keep people who never played a good game in their lives from discovering what the games in question are. I'm sure someone will name it eventually, but until then, the zoom zooms can go back to Fortnite.

>if you boot the game up after the credits roll, there's an extra part of the story where you go to hell and fight the true final boss to get the best ending, which turns out to be a pretty weird fucking ending

>Most people don't even know the preceeding game even exists
Not my problem.
It's development was such a fucking mess to begin with, and the end product came out to be an absolute clusterfuck, so no wonder devs tried to hide the FACT that the SECOND game is an actual honest-to-all-fucks DIRECT sequel to it so-goddamn-fucking-hard that you have to play through more than 40% of the second game to find out/get PLOTWISTED all of a sudden that you've actually played the direct sequel of the first game all this time. Devs are fuckhueg trolls, because, despite first game being a total fucking shitclown circus 85% of it, the mere fact alone the second game is a direct sequel and devs hid it so well from you until you finish at least half of their next game, is absolutely god tier trolling and simply GENIUS, because it automatically makes you want to play the very first game and to find out what the fuck's that all shit was about, if you've started with the second game and only heard about the very first game before. And if you're not a pirate, then devs essentially make you buy a copy of the first game that way. Fucking geniuses.

Imagine being this spiteful that the next generation will find and enjoy the games of your childhood. what a faggot

What’s wrong with exposing casuals to games they’ve missed? What are they gonna do to you, have a shit opinion?

Shadow Hearts

>bit of backstory for the first game
No. The second game is LITERALLY a continuation of the first game, because ONE OF THE PLAYABLE MAIN CHARACTERS IS THE CHILD OF THE FIRST GAME'S PROTAGONISTS.

>you can go the entire thing without needing it for context
Not if you've heard about the first game before (and a fuckton of people did, because it was overadvertised and overhyped as fuck back in the days, in media such as magazines, game expos, TV ads and etc), yet never played it. The name immediately becomes stuck in the memory, due to being very unique and nonconformist. Even if you didn't play it. Even if you didn't see jack shit of it. The name alone is very memorable and very well-known. So when you're playing through the sequel, that moment when you find out about the game being the sequel, completely shocks AND makes you want to play the first game, because the second game is so-fucking-good.

YHVH up your ass.

>people no play good game, only bad game

Fuck off, you know I'm right.

Never played the games though, still stuck on playing ps1 games.

again, not even close
it's a very, very obscure game, but here's a hint: it's made by konami

No shit retard, they're asking because they're interested and might want to learn more or even play it

How the fuck did you manage, then? Did you actually jewgle up by key phrases?

You never go to hell in DD though.

Go fucking play them right now.

Only if he starts right from K, before going full-blown S on his ass. It's mandatory, nowadays.

If you don't gatekeep the good games, people will never learn to just play games at all in hopes of discovering a good one, or just having to play a game and actually form an opinion of their own about it with no one to tell them "it's shit" or "it's good" and color their expectations.

Shadow Hearts: FtNW is the only one I played and I fucking loved it. Easily one of my top 10. Are the first 3 worth a play to me?

i know it applies, but it's sadly not the game i was thinking of. not even the same series. sorry, user, but it seems you're just one more clod rejected

>How the fuck did you manage, then?
Spent too much time on Yea Forums.
>Only if he starts right from K
Yeah, Koudelka is on my ps1 games I'm gonna play.

>credits roll and you have more questions than resolutions, especially because of the credits scenes
>everything goes to shit
>you go to the deepest part of the main game’s world and get a wacky ending thrown at you
Fuck you you know I’m right

>FtNW is the only one I played and I fucking loved it. Easily one of my top 10.
...you need to tryhard way more than just that, kid.

>level select is a key component of the story in the true ending's route

i'll give you another hint: the ending i'm talking about is indeed weird, but it's not ambiguous. it's very set-in-stone, in fact. it's just bizarre as shit.

Koudelka is really fucking weird to play, I wouldn'[t call it a good experience, or a bad one. It's just an older, weird PS1 game, like a lot of weird PS1 games in the janky ages of early 3D games.

Fuck, I realized it was Koudelka/Shadow Hearts as soon as I read the "Girl you love died a game ago" but came to this thread too late.

>Koudelka is on my PSOne games I'm gonna play
...better buckle up and grind your teeth. That's NOT going to be an easy ride (ESPECIALLY if you haven't played it even once thus far for all these years). Go to GameFAQs and search up it's cheats/"hidden"/"secret" items and methodology how to obtain them, if you don't believe me.

No, it's a legitimately "not most bad, but pretty bad nonetheless" kind of a game. It's only some purpose of existence nowadays is literally to fill in the gaps of story/characters/scenario of the entire franchise, for those who wish to see the picture fully. It's a flavor piece.

OP writing about it the way he did was the confusing part. Again, mostly because people barely know Koudelka exists, even less people than know SH exists, and most people who have played SH haven't touched or heard of it, so don't connect the two, as the series wasn't really advertised as being related to it, it was just a thing that sort of happens halfway through SH1. And the 2nd game has even less to do with it as IIRC Koudelka isn't even mentioned in that one, and her kid isn't a party member.

Read and , and stop that shit already. The game is well known, even if not for the reasons you might think about. It was always well known.

I actually unironically always thought it was "fine". The scene itself is a dragfest and is kind of stupid, but the voice-over is...fine. That's ain't no original Japanese version, though. It fucking disgusts me to the very core that still even up to this day no one managed to successfully did a fully working Undub of the second game, despite third and the garbage fourth having full Undubs being available for ages. What the actual fuck, I wonder. Is it THAT hard to crack the second game, or something? Is it exactly the same case of "the game gets absolutely broken/unfinishable if even a slightest sliver of it's code gets modified" like what Avatar Tuner has?

>true ending is killing yourself in the past from preventing the fucked up future you caused

What really kills the scene/makes it a laugh fest is the shloops and the VA doing an old woman doing an old man voice for the story like kids around a campfire. It'd not be what it is if it had sound effects for the shloops and the VA not trying to do that.

Thats a few games I can think of. But was this one a mediocre FPS?

I was going to say Way of the Samurai until the last two sentences. Although apparently WotS1 is on PS2 and I misremembered.
People should play Way of the Samurai anyways.

Neither.

Should've never specified it that deeply, fuck. So you haven't played it, eh...well...you should...either by learning Japanese (and boy-oh-boy, it was a FUCKTON ton of VERY advanced Japanese. ADULT Japanese, not your Slayers Royal-tier "80% of the game is romaji and katakana") or by waiting for al;l eternity for the proper full translation from the actual translator to land...

Back to /vn/.

...so you liked the worst shadow hearts...aside from koudelka being something like a 5 hours rpg with 4 or 5 discs that you had to change each hour.

SH1 and 2 are top notch, and masterpieces compared to FtNW, even when SH1 has aged worse.

SH1 is more creepy, SH2 is more epic adventure/shonen.

Sorry, wrong genre entirely.

Arc The Lad Twilight of Spirits.

Is it Advance Wars? I haven't played DS or Days, but the fourth game retcon would sound like it matches...

The answer has been given in this thread. And no, it's not Advance Wars.

fuck, and here I thought I was the only one who played the game because no one ever talks about it

It's because both of the PS 2's Arcs were massively overshadowed by the original trilogy, naturally. Yes, even despite Arc The Lad III being such an underwhelming fuckery (after the ABSOLUTE PERFECTION that is Arc The Lad II, that is).

Try that.

Probably some Neptunia garbage

This game's way older than that.

>99% of all Yea Forums doesnt know any of this
Or maybe they couldn't get it because, even after deciphering that mess of quotations, a quarter of your points are actually factually untrue?
>4 games
Obfuscating nonsense. Koudelka is so far unlinked that its only role was to have a macguffin for the MC to rescue. You only included it to confuse.
>you don't find [final boss] actual reasons for why he became "evil" and decided to turn into the final boss until at least the middle of the third game
Because Kaito was fine with clones at first.
He turned into the final boss, in the middle of the third game, because the clone died in the exact same manner as the original, making him pissed off with the universe itself.
>3rd game has a pseudo main-bad
That released Malice and more undead into the world, causing the entirety of the 4th game?
That did plenty enough to definitely be a main-bad?
The entire point of shadow hearts 2 was that Yuri was emotionally lost and guideless, wandering aimlessly and being lugged around by his party into beating up random villains he gives no fucks about.
Having 3, or 4 "big bads" he beats down is completely in tone with the aimlessness of the game.
>the fourth game utterly ruined everything canon
Both endings to 3 didn't matter. Game 2 and game 3 resolve themselves cleanly in a cycle, and a 4th game STILL harping on Yuri would be retarded.
Instead, the 4th game was about, you know, the Malice that the "fake big bad" released being a really big deal?
It also deals with, again, why you shouldn't use the emigre manuscript, and should do what Yuri did in his ending instead.
>throughout the entirety of the third game BOTH the main hero and the final boss are trying to do same thing for the same reasons
You mean the MC was drowning in sorrow and punching Nazis and priests while the "big bad" pulled his shit together and decided to remake the fucking universe for his loved one? I'd call those opposite motives and opposite actions.
