AAA pricing got you down? Why not play a free (updated!) game to piss you off instead:

LONG ROAD TO HECK, a globe-trotting RPG with 20 dungeons to conquer and tons of loot to collect!

The catch? You only have 60 minutes to reach level 99 and defeat the dark lord.

(i coulda used terrain tags but i felt it'd get annoying with the interfacing of the different subareas, and with the way i'm doing the special slime spawns it's not a big deal to jsut have 9 parent events (central plains + 8 biomes)
you may be wondering why the regions aren't for biomes. i'm instead using them to call up the right number of slimes! encounters have up to 12 slimes as you get further from the center town. i have a slightly different parent event for each subarea that pulls the right slime troops.
alright, got the FPS kinda in check and did some fuckery with visustella's <JS> and <Self> switches/variables to make the random spawns work like i wanted. (all the slimes are using parent events on another map, they're not just copy-paste event batches lol)

the seven OSHA compliant hard hat souls:
except the slimes. thats why we have to kill them
yeah, they're basically A/B testing to see if they can capture a broader audience with a different thumbnail
not entirely sure what to do to make the desert area look better yet, but i'll probably figure something out maybe
not really much of a #screenshotsaturday but hey, look at pretty region tag rainbow

why do all of my rpgs just become "what if you were on a game board"? we may never know. all i know is that you will be killing so many slimes.
playing some powerwash sim 2 kinda slowly since i'm still playing trails in the sky FC and absolum, but wow, they made the soap feel SO much better to use

oh my gosh their eyes!!!!
genuinely seems to be "has a world map, no skill trees, static party, made when i was a kid"
LMAO i hate 5D even though i love rizna and copandon lol. might give it another chance in the future

ff13 is a good parallel, agreed
while i am not going to argue its uhh transcendental, theres just something genuinely cool about taking a world and cast of characters through ten games that we just dont see much anymore outside of like, the Trails series

i will argue that the sense of oppression in 6 (Fall of Zeth) is unmatched
evenicle uses the same engine... but its another alicesoft harem game lol

a shame. at least theres some touhou drpgs that use 6's ideas but yeah never seen another quest-like
rance x has about 1.2mi words on umineko's 1.1mil lmao

If you're using Windows 11, Microsoft is now surveilling you in a new way. This may already be turned on on your computer, and you would not be notified; it activates whenever they detect you are in a "game", which in my experience Microsoft often false-positives on

I've tweaked encounter rates, fixed some spells, and explained the timer a bit better, among other things. No new content, just some updates ~

Your cost of living and health insurance skyrocketing is the reason you can no longer afford AAA video games the day they come out, not the price of the games themselves.
i really don't get why there's much RNG at all to turn orders (i mean i kinda get it, but)

the game has tools to adjust it (different 'weights' for hand/head/feet/accessory equips) so it feels like they hsould work a bit better lol? i think they do in later games but don't quote me on that
i think a lot of people would have a lot of feelings about sill dressing slightly masc
