Earthbound is SO Dragon Quest coded, it makes me sad that DQ really would've done so much better if the timeline worked out better

I'm feeling it. The 40th anniversary of Dragon Quest. One of the games that celebrates the franchise the MOST is Dragon Quest IX. It has only ever released on DS (Not even mobile!)
It's coming this year. It's DQIX's time.

Something you have to be careful with card based tabletop card games as a Card Gamer as to not leverage your knowledge so much that you yu-gi-oh combo your partner on turn 1 (whoops)
The game was called Here to Slay and it was very cute and is actually VERY combo oriented, my Eye was just open

isn't it fucked up that Toonami was a thing, died, came back, and would eventually have Tom review Slender on adult swim

I got to play Jubeat and Sound Voltex at an Arcade the other day and I've lost the skills a little bit but it's still there
for SDVX at arcades I like to sight read a new 14 for my first clear to warm up, a 15 I'm familiar with, and sight reading a new 15. This time I crashed on an EXH 15 (whoops)

This year while doing my annual Ocarina of Time 100 percent Christmas Eve playthrough one thing that really hit me was how much design goes into a 3D adventure and it must be why the idea of making a game like this but on a larger scale (for modern tastes) seems so unappealing

It's so cool and delightful that the Dragon Quest 1 remake takes a game that had you traveling alone to serve as an Introduction to RPGs as a videogame and turns it into a game where one incredibly powerful hero cleaves through everything on his own and every NPC is in awe

I've been tinkering with Godot lately and the fun/interesting part of programming to me is that it is easy to do something in a game and not realize how many moving parts are beneath the surface until you try and do it yourself, not to mention the numerous ways to accomplish any given task

It can never be understated how hard NoA fumbled Dragon Quest and how it had a lasting impact on its popularity in the west.

Not that I'm really in circles where I would personally discuss this I've noticed a weird phenomenon where people are like, very sensitive about and holding on dearly to straight ships as if they are under siege or something

I wonder if the slow but steady co-opification of roguelikes will be something that has long term implications

I think it would be really fun designing and making an RPG, but looking around and seeing the all timer designs definitely makes it intimidating
