Well, I made it, I cleared the arena on Project Phantasma. It may feel a bit like cheesing, but the absolute movement these units were pulling lead me to using an AC unit that would allow me to circlestrafe around these enemies. I think the main issue the game has as a flaw, is that it's not easy to identify which builds are actually good, and which are non-viable. This one was really fun, but it wasn't that fun figuring out what was going to be useful, and what wasn't. Overall, the last fights really boosted the game a few points up. Really really liked it.

Oh and I just figured out there is actually an "easy mode" you can unlock if you fail enough times in the game. Gives you a much more lenient boost, a ranged melee attack, improved radar, ability to use heavy weapons without being stationary... Why would that be unlockable after being a shit player!? Wouldn't it be better to unlock that by actually playing properly? Either way, seems like I've beaten both games on a secret "hard mode", so I guess that speaks more of my skill level, haha. But it'd have been neat to have a much bigger arsenal in a regular playthrough.

I got to floor 7 in rengoku 1 today and noticed that a room I was in had a particularly interesting shape

Bike is the only thing I have.

>>1800 That’s so cute! I played that game a lot when it came out but dropped off it a little. Maybe I should get back into it . . .

flowers

300 days have passed and i am still in a dark place, still havent held a job for more than a week syrno i cant post images on mobile because the reply box thing is anchored weird, a > menu like Emotes, Styling etc would be enough

>>756 its like disco elysium

>>755 I wolder when Collective Unconscious will be released online again. I never got to play it before it got kicked out of YNOProject.

>>1872

>>1880 can the japanese even pronounce "chump" without having cramps and heart attacks?

>>1873 Thinks like .hack were very much based off of FF 11

>>1873 >>1876 yeah welcome to the NHK also clearly references FF11. it was all the rage in japan back then. i never played it though i can't say how good it is. i think they closed the servers for new characters recently but i wouldn't even play it since i don't use windows and square obviously shut off PS2 support

>>1873 I love IMOQ so much. It's a completely unique experience in terms of atmosphere. What makes it even more immersive for me is that you barely see any character interactions outside of The World. It's like a double layer of escapism. You're focused on exploring an imaginary world within an imaginary world. The characters' behavior somehow manages to not ruin this magic. The only windows into "reality" are the news portal and email. I don't know if any of the existing MMOs are capable of offering the same experience though.

Mobile Suit Gundam: Gundam vs. Zeta Gundam for the ps2

Lord of the Ring: The Third Age on ps2, gc, og xbox and gba was turn based rpg were you follow behind film trilogy crew with your own team with og characters that you level up as well as sometimes intertwining with straight-up movie scenes and fighting alongside film characters. Most interesting factoid about this game is that plot ends up being junky and awkward with it's b-side following of main story and that is due to the developers really wanting to make their game be based on books, but they ended up stuck with films license. It makes this game have wasted potential that I think could really shine based on the love for source material spilling out of the screen with for example item descriptions (really dark-soulsesque) tackling grander book lore and references. Case of this game makes me sad as we never got actual book based game that could cover events omitted in the movies. Oh what we could have...

LittleBigPlanet 2. One of my favorite games of all time, with no PC port or anything. In fact the servers have been shut down for some time now so you couldn't even play online if you wanted to...

baroque for ps2. End of humanity vibe, oppressive sound design, and a bit of religious horror. The story is a little messy though, but it’s still cool.

Play noctis

back when cohost was still up i was oomfies on there with the creator of space funeral/anthology of the killer...

>>748 i may have to check this one out looks strange and silly. nothing like a good walking sim to wind down.

Hope doing detailed autism post is fine for the thread... This game, Magical Block Carat, is the best puzzle game I've ever saw in terms of chaining/combo mechanics . (And it's unfortunate that it's supposedly a porn game, even though the h parts are on a separate disc, because it makes it impossible to show it in public events/anicons.) At its core the game is a match-3 (similar to panel de pon or Tetris Attack), but you have a button that switches the break to work either cardinally or diagonally at any time, including during combos ! The game offers a ton, with customizable block sets (mahjong set!), mission mode that teaches you how to do weird shapes and combos, and killer soundrack on the pc98 version https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eman9Qg4m60 Will visit some friends for easter vacations, would appreciate recommendations for obscure games with local multiplayer if you have any!

Been meaning to find this thread again, here's a weird one called Wetrix. You drop batches of arrows on a 3D plane to raise or lower it, and water and fire to increase or decrease water in them. The more lakes you divide the terrain into, the higher your score. I guess the name is supposed to be a play on Tetris but it has absolutely nothing to do with Tetris at all... I guess other than the various blocks of stuff coming down in a vaguely similar manner.

>>1867 i hate computers because they have stressed me out, so there is no way i would go and create something on my own, however if somebody wants to collaborate i can do some art (not pixelart, i would seppuku all the way to my throat)

>>1812 Adderall made me better at Osu, have you tried ADHD-maxxing, Anon?

osu ruined my life for around 3 months good times

ah... osu, either i don't play it for months, or i play it for a whole month. no in between

quit w maybe one day I will have the time again

DDR forever!!!!!!!!

>>1851 I don't know if I remember specifically when I thought it was going to shit, but the chat filters, new character models, and the removal of tickets rubbed me the wrong way, so probably the same era as you. I would have been 12 in 2013 so that was probably near the peak of me playing it. I started at 8, was hooked, played religiously until I was probably 14-15. You are absolutely right that the game is unrecognizable. I get on sometimes when others ask me to but it's basically a different game in the worst way.

anyone remember Dawn of the Zombies? that was the first time i heard one winged angel loool

>>1856 the first time i ever heard Caramelldansen was on a Roblox obby waaay back in like 2009 i was basically introduced to internet culture through old Roblox.

>>1858 that reminded me of that one time there used to be a roblox troll game where you get jumpscared with flashy colors and a very loud speed up version of caramelldansen.... i think it was made in 2011? but i cant remember it well, i first heard about it on roblox iceberg on youtube.

>>1856 For me it was Contamination
