I remember Pokemon Pinball Ruby and Sapphire when I was a kid, it was really fun but people always told me the original was better tbh
no the kid just controls like shit
he controls perfectly fine and his shortcomings are made up for by teaming up with trico. that's the whole dynamic and purpose of the game
calm down
never
based the last guardian enjoyer
People who complain about TLG controls deserve to have their fingers shocked every time they try to game.
true!
played a solid half of these and yeah based picks but i don't think star ocean 3 really fits here? it's a popular game with a vocal but fairly small hatedom regarding the twist
star ocean is way less regarded than the tales of series and tri-ace in general doesn't get enough respect
Star Ocean 3 sold 1.5m units worldwide on PS2 + sold a good amount on PS4 + has an 80+ on gamerankings/metacritic from critics and users alike it's honestly more regarded than like 90% of Tales games. I think Radiata Stories is more underrated
i rarely ever see anyone talking about so3 and when i do see it they're usually just shitting on the story or saying they heard it was bad. regardless this list isn't solely about obscurity - if it was i wouldn't have lumines or pokemon pinball here - these are just games i like a lot that i feel are overlooked compared to other ones
Eh my friend group at least loves SO3 so idk, I always see it brought up more than the other SOs but fair on the latter part
I played Star Ocean 4 and 5 and I've heard about 3's really stupid twist why should I subject myself to this.
nearly every twist sounds stupid if you just hear about it from word of mouth without any context - especially from people who were bitter about it on day 1 for "ruining their favorite game!!!" so3's narrative isn't amazing but it's cool and gets better after the twist
either way so3 is carried by gameplay over narrative, and it's a hell of a lot more mechanically thought out than so4 due to having an actually functional targeting system

SO3 is prolly kino
If theres one thing I've learned, it's that many people are extremely dumb motherfuckers when it comes to JRPG takes. Can't take any of them at face value no more.

jrpg takes are always insane
for example, there's people out there who actually like xenogears

You think that's crazy? I've heard of people that actually like Persona 3!
@PKMudkipz 🤯 that's crazy
TLG controls are worth complaining about honestly but they dont detract from how good the game is
But its honestly the camera more than the controls
there's literally nothing wrong with the camera or the controls in tlg. never had a single issue
also compost i don't think anyone's stanning xg for the gameplay. it's a mess but there's some revelations in the second half of the story that justify it for most people. prime example of "it gets good after 1000000 hours" shit

nah the camera is def shit but again, it doesnt hinder the game even tho it is indeed an issue
gonna have to chalk that up to a you problem chief
me? that's literally most people's problem with the game along with the controls, it aint just me
nah I'm def stanning Xenogears for the gameplay it's extremely fun, challenging and varied with approaches to enemies and gear sections. I think deadass most people are just playing it wrong which is why they just spam melee deathblows for shit like the G-Elements fights when they should have elemental deathblows by then, for example
also the twist in SO3 is cool

when the ghost is in the shell 😳😳
i'm sorry c_f but you lost me there at the notion of xenogears being challenging
