Son of a fucking bitch, which game is this? I almost recognize it.

>>3758384
Just yandex the character names.

>>3758384
Aretha. Unlucky for the OP but I've played all the SFC RPGs so he isn't the only one.

>>3758384
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aretha_(video_game)

there is a sequel too

Why did all those jrpgs have the same fucking combat?

>>3758442
Turn based, or the Ui? If the ui, it's because dragon quest.

dungeons of neheulbok is old school internet comedy ( kinda cringey kinda classic) and really fkin good gameplay. Nice to have a tactical rpg without the heavy novel.

Cirote 3

>>3758260 (OP)
aretha was a best selling game in japan

Sega Saturn exclusive
There didn't seem to be a limit to how many times you can stack debuff effects so if you enjoy humiliating bosses by reducing them to pathetic weaklings it's pretty good for that.
It's not a dick it's an Aliens homage you uncultured swine

i always wonder if there was a tower of the sorcerer before tower of the sorcerer and that's where dude got the idea for it

I was only just getting into RPGs around the turn of the century, and I wanted to play something generic and traditional, so I asked for this for Christmas. It's pretty bland and I don't think I ever even beat it, but some of the music is still stuck in my head.

The regular battle theme is pretty fuckin' great, imo:

Many people have played Last Bible/Revelations. But it looks cool as fuck honestly

fuck that shit ass game and moreover, FUCK
>The Day of Edea

>Cthulhu Saves the world
I remember pirating it on my shitty phone years ago and enjoyed playing it, even doing the secret boss(es) too.
Sadly the mobile port no longer works so i bought it and its sequel(?
I havent finished it yet but oh how fun it is. Just the mere charm of seeing the 2 enemy descriptions and sprites when turned mad makes me have fun!
Give it a try anons

>>3763587
idea no hi is an unironic masterpiece and in my top 10 jrpgs. not the game's fault you're an eop.

Tecmo Secret of The Stars, Paladin's Quest, Sword of Vermillion

>>3763856
I'm not an EOP. I just think the game fucking sucks.

Loved this shit, god squaresoft dropped the ball focusing on FF

>>3764622
how's the spell system? is it fun to mix words or does it feel poorly designed?

Naruto GBA SRPG. Can mix-match jutsu with shurikens and other ninja stuff + large cast of characters (sadly most of them are only available late game / postgame iirc)

>>3764199
how far'd you get?

>>3758786
Are you the dev? Cool to see a homebrew GBA RPG btw

>>3763596
Charming but kinda tiresome. Gets old kinda fast.

Osteoblasts

>>3764641
It's pretty cool, over the course of the game you get new words and prefixes/suffixes to use to alter spells. Then with that knowledge you can use it in other playthroughs.
There's even some secret words that do special stuff which are fun to find

>>3764747
I cant deny that but the charm is what keeps me in! Idk but it has a special place in my heart

>>3764622
>>3764641
Good shit

Last Bible III, playing thru a fan translation. It freaking rocks.

>>3758260 (OP)
Looks like just another generic expel spreadsheet game.

>>3767255
What game is your image from? Looks kino.

>>3767525
what was it like?

>>3767255
literally every video game can be reduced to a spreadsheet

>>3771256
A very bad Phantasy Star clone.

>>3763505
tons of people have played this

>>3767242
its crazy how this was translated without anyone playing it

>>3767242
I thought it was on the cusp of being a good game but not quite there. Great soundtrack, except for having a bottom 5 battle theme of all time.

>>3758818
PECTOPAH

>>3758260 (OP)
Vandal Hearts 2.
Everyone plays 1 and usually dislike 2 so it gets little rep.
Its already one of my favorite (s)rpgs.

I know nothing about this ToS game you posted, but the pic looks extremely similar to a game I've played recently, Tactical Nexus, which is a highly autistic efficiency simulator. Guess now I know where the inspiration came from, assuming they in fact play similarly to each other.

>>3774376
>Tactical Nexus
I remember playing the demo for that but it was a tad too autistic for me. Plus the whole idea of making the game progressively more expensive as time went by sounded retarded.

But yes, both the game I posted and Tactical Nexus are heavily inspired by this game from 1998 called Tower of the Sorcerer. They all play the same, with Tactical Nexus being a way more minmax version of it and way more stuff to manage.

I was going to link the game's website, but turns out that it is no longer up (it was still up by December).
Thankfully, Wayback Machine exists.

Recently I also played DungeonUp, which is another game heavily inspired by Tower of the Sorcerer.

It's a 2 hour game. Come on

>>3760518
I have this game and always wanted to fully play it, but no translation exists that I know of.

>>3774376
Tactical Nexus is just Tower of the Sorcerer with metaprogression
