What games are y’all playing? Suggestions/Reviews/Thoughts? Hyped up for anything and want to share? I’ve been devouring Dragon Quest XI and Little Witch Nobeta, needed an RPG fix badly! DQ actually greatly benefits from whatever graphic engine they are using, the cartoony style for Toriyama design is great (although he keeps reusing the same faces/archetypes for everything). Nobeta actually harder than dark souls for me, I can’t parry to save my life and am still stuck at the second boss. Also picked up SinOAlice because why not, peeps are still in quarantine here anyway.
Also, can we get a Vidya tag, please?
Eden been any good? I dropped it in 5.0 after my group imploded with constant replacements and a resulting lack of progress leading to a worsening player pool to pull from. Considering going back late 5.3 and just being a PF hero in 5.4 instead.
Tough for me to say. E5-8S are the first savages I've done. I've been having fun, but we got a full 8man. I think it might be too late to try pugging through this tier, all the good players are BiS on their mains by now.
I don't think anything's been particularly hard up til E8S. E6S is a little frustrating because there's a lot of points of failure in its mechanics
Yeah, the last in set are usually the mechanically demanding ones with low margin for error. The rest are largely "can you do the thing and not die?" sort of doable with mediocre damage output. That's held more or less true since ARR.
5.4 would be the last tier, late 5.3 would be to catch up on the gear cycle beforehand.
