The patch was released today on Beast's Lair. It's quite a big file though

Wow just over 3 gb for the voices. Thanks you though

Wow, NISA is actually going to attempt and fix Ys 8 by December

That's cool, I guess. You don't always see companies doing something like this. I suppose Falcom fans made a big enough deal about it. The fanbase isn't that big but they could be savage. I'm going to replay this again during the Winter break :D

 

tbh, it's going to be saltier than North Ambria if NISA gets Sen 3

I just (finally) got my hands on an SNES Classic! I swear getting a hold of this thing was such a big pain in the ass.

Playing through Chaos;Child and it's a lot darker than I would have thought. Getting those Steins;gate feels

Just finished muv luv Extra and Unlimited, all endings

 

My thoughts spoilers obviously

Extra

 

I personally loved it the routes and all the girls. Loving and finding each one to be really a gem. Tears up for Sumika and Tama. Both my favourite girls getting to know them even more had me really care for everyone. The sport event, food cooking competition and holiday, alongside each girls individual event from Archery of tama and hospital accident of class rep and kei. Even got to know class press best friend.

 

 

Unlimited

 

The things that want down throughout the ten episodes had my heart breaking, from the elder woman to Protag passing out due to BETA attacks. That just made me freak out a lot. Thinking about the meaning of life and what Marimo said about not taking it for granted but living it to its fullest. Also that scene with Meiya made me really love her. The animation was so top notch. Missed Sumkia a lot.

 

 

Just loaded up Alternative today and the opening wow.. Got me hyped can't wait to get back to reading this epic trilogy

Glad you enjoyed Extra and Unlimited (Though not many people liked Extra because they thought it was boring). 

Be prepared to be devastated for Alternative though. That game is probably one of the most depressing VNs ever of all time (probably even more so than Clannad) and it will definitely make you appreciate Extra a lot more (since Extra is very lighthearted while Alternative is just screwing with your emotions).

 

Just so you know, there are fan discs to the franchise as well, namely Muv Luv Supplement (takes place after events in Extra) and Muv Luv Altered Fable (takes place after events in Alternative)

 

P.S

 

You will meet Sumika again in Alternative, don't worry

More than clannad? Clannad had me like seriously..... If it's more wow   and I already love Extra so yay more time to appreciate it. 

 

Do you recommend the fan discs? I'm just going to complete Alt, maybe in two to three weeks and than start Little busters (when it comes out on Steam). 

[Green Willow]

honestly i want the remake to hurry and come so i can see cloud in HD crossdress but most importantly my baby zack, if even for a few seconds   my baby, i love him so much, please add a bit more content of him! he was a huge part of cloud's life anyway.

Well personally I haven't played the fan discs since Supplement doesn't have an English translation as of yet while Altered Fable only has a partial translation, but if you understand Japanese, then I think you should play them (especially Altered Fable)

MOTHER OF GOD YES     Been waiting for this. Where's the source?

So I bought FFXV during the 50% off sale recently on PS4, and finished it tonight. I already knew there were a lot of complaints about the story, but man, wtf was that? I can't believe Square Enix were happy to actually publish the game in such a state. :/

 

I never played FFXIII, so I'm sure it's at least better than that based on what I've heard, but I finished the game feeling pretty disappointed. Mostly because I could see the blueprints for a pretty decent game underneath the convoluted mess it ended up being. I had to google to understand some of the details, and I'm not sure if I'm more disappointed after understanding everything or when I was slightly lost lol.

 

I got bored of it, its so choppy and the loading screens are so annoying. There are much better ones out there.

   Getting so hyped up right now..... These games are really taking a toll on my money 

 

Completed Life is strange before the storm episode 2 and....

 

I absolutely love Rachel so much, the game is just making me adore and really enjoy whom she is, the way she acted for Chloe and trying to get her out of trouble. To the part where they were acting on stage.and enjoying it. The part where Chloe and Rachel kissed made my heart pound .

Also the twist in the end, Sera is actually Rachel's mom O.o what.....

Yeah the load times were a pain. I'm playing FFIX right now and enjoying it a lot. :3

I really want to get into Baldur's Gate cause it seems like a really quality game, but I played the older Divinity games and I wasn't able to get into them. Since those are pretty similar to the Baldur's Gate games, will I be able to get into it? Or is it too dated?

Literally not feeling alright with how Muv Luv Alt is coming, Obvious spoilers below,  got to chapter 7 and....

 

 

I saw the spoiler of Marimo dying but seriously when that happened, my heart just froze (before when they were graduating I shared a tear for them and when Takeru was talking to her about it, just those lines about how she coached them made is so personal), she was going on about her past and that just made me feel so numb and btroken . When she got killed from that BETA :( Also the events that happened had me; like in chapter 6 where the team was thinking of a strategy, I cried for Class pres about hearing her dad dying, even Kei's childhood friend tore me.  Even the girl that Tama was talking too really set me going. Such a harsh world :(

 

Even seeing the BETA for the first time and seeing just how strong they are :( my heart is just in shambles right now.

 

Thanks goodness going back to Extra's timeline and Marimo   is still there. But things are confusing right now about his own PTSD and what happens.....

 

 

Just how much more devastating can this game get?

if you're interested in the genre but are worried about it being too dated you try some of the newer games since CRPGs have somewhat had a resurgence over the last few years. Check out stuff like Wasteland 2, Pillars of Eternity. Divinity: Original Sin (this also has a sequel that just came out a month or so ago). I haven't played any of these yet but i've been interested in them also and have heard only good things about them.

 

I think Dragon Age: Origins is also considered this type of game so you could try that also.

DAO is why I really wanted to try Balder's Gate since I loved DAO so much. I'll definitely check out the three games you mentioned though. Divinity: Original Sin looks like a ton of fun.
