It depends, Fire Emblem for example loses all purpose if your waifu dies.
Games full of RNG are also not fun to play unless you savescum because it's quite literally just gambling at this point.
Shmups practically require savescumming to learn the entire game because without it, most are borderline impossible.
I'm perfectly fine with accepting losses in big strategy games though.
FPS and various action games are fine too.

>>714146046

Now that's just retarded. How do you think people cleared games in the arcade? Save states and training modes are just supposed to be faster ways to credit feed your way to the section you want to practice.

>>714146723
>How do you think people cleared games in the arcade?
By putting enough coins to see the credits?
With enough persistence, you'll accidentially get through most games but you won't be able to re-do the hard parts consistently, and with ones where you just immediately respawn, you don't even need to get good as you're constantly making progress even if you're dying every 2 seconds.
I like the genre but I really wish it wasn't so heavy on memorization.

Sure, you definitely lived in Japan in the 90's and I can trust you on that alone.
Besides, you're talking about the same audience who plays the most braindead JRPGs and has hopeless gambling addiction.
Don't pretend like Japanese superplayers are the majority.

Any of you guys play this? It's translated.

anon, even Moot himself has weighed in on this debate and said that this is a Japanese interest website, and anime was a driving force in that. What you're doing is essentially going to a scale model of Akihabara and pointing to a McDonalds and saying "uh this isn't anime gamer central, it's a fucking restaurant plaza."

who gives a shit about intentions? this world remembers only the results
if arcade was the place where you idled your days away, then you would get better at shmups or fightans or whatever, but there is also a sizeable portion of players that physically didn't have the time to get gud

>>714141741 (OP)
This is true. I recently started the System Shock 2 remaster. The game is tight, but being able to quick save and load whenever I want kind of ruins the immersion.

>>714154817
>this world remembers only the results
1cc culture did spread out in the west as well eventually, so the results speak in my favor as well. In Japan it was already thing because companies actually made games around it, especially shmups where you get additional stages and bosses.

It isn't 2003 anymore. This is no longer an anime website. No matter how much you desperately want to pretend it is.

>>714156218
Holy cope. You lost.

>>714155370
Honestly it's not even that, it's that if you lose a unit then it was either accidential and didn't matter because it's a low level or you just lost a powerhouse because of an unlucky boss crit and can't beat the game anymore.
Most of these "SRPGs" share the same problem of just having 2-3 god units that win by themselves and everything else stays benched or on low level.
Langrisser did it right by giving you a bunch of goons with fixed stats while the unique units cast spells or position themselves to boost as many units as possible.
Valkyria Chronicles also had a good thing going on with levels attached to unit types rather than individual units, unfortunately the games suffer from a myriad of other issues, like the braindead AI even for genre standards

>>714156290
to be honest Kiseki is the only game with a grid I really like, because it's not a war game. so many grid combat JRPGs are just wargames, but I dont want that. I just want tactical combat and a party of heroes like D&D. it's almost like japan, already stuck in the 80s and 00s, is also stuck in the chainmail age of RPGs and hasn't really moved on to the heroes era of grid combat. cutting down trash as a hero unit in those games is no fun either.

The prostate isn't the only place pleasurable sensations come from. There are a lot of nerve endings down there. If it was just the prostate, rimjobs would be pointless.

Playing the whole game without saving would be crazy, but I had fun with a challenge run recently where I only saved once at the start of each mission on realistic, and it was really fun. Made me appreciate the environmental training skill a lot more.
Hong Kong was really painful, took me several tries. One of the runs ended in getting eaten by the fucking karkian in the tunnels after destroying the UC, the last fucking enemy in Hong Kong.

>>714157745
Not really, they offer very little tactical depth without self imposed challenges, unit counts are too small and differences and weaknesses in units are often erased by levelling up enough or switching to the right class.
Besides there's tons of JRPGs that are exactly what you're looking for, a party of heroes with various skills but it's often dragged down by random chances and dice rolls.
Wizardy, Etrian Odyssey, Disgaea whatever.
>like D&D
Then play Baldur's Gate or something, at least western RPGs actually live up to the genre acronym to some extend.

no they aren't

Games that don’t have quick save/load are often more immersive and meaningful.
There’s something special about games that force you to live with your choices. No F5 safety net. No F9 do-over. Every move, every decision carries weight. Think Souls series, Ironman XCOM, Rogueliks, or even stuff like Lisa the painful, the tension is real because you can’t undo your mistakes.
When there’s no quickload, you pay attention. You don’t do dumb shit “just to see what happens.” You think, adapt, and learn.
Sure, quicksave is comfy. But without it the world feels less like a toy, and more like a place you exist in.
