Back in the 90s and early 00s, I actually used to play JRPGs quite a bit. But somewhere down the line, JRPGs changed in ways that pushed me away from the genre, and I haven't thought about or played one since.
However, thanks to Eiyuden Chronicle : Hundred Heroes, I've realized that a genre is never truly gone so long as there are still those who remember it, and Hundred Heroes' ability to balance between old-school style and new-school quality of life improvements has brought me back to the table, interest renewed.

The mole boss has indeed a way to know where he would be, while he spin to burrow in the sand, he will take a angle toward where he will go. So if he is to the left, jump and look toward the right, he will be to the right, i saw that hint the second time he jumped.

Honestly, I'm a little split. I was interested in Eiyuden Chronicles, but I've heard some things about questionable changes to the English translation. Based on Leamon's review though, I may still pick this up. Especially since it seems to have a such a heavy focus on story and worldbuilding, which is just the thing I've been looking for now that I've finally caught up with the Trails series. Speaking of JRPG's Lemon, have you ever played the Xenoblade games from Monolithsoft? Some of the best JRPGs I've played in the last decade, with some of the best stories, main characters and villains, combat is pretty fun too. I also highly recommend Nihon Falcom's The Legend of Heroes: Trails series if you like the deep character, worldbuilding and story stuff.

@Worgen33 Күн бұрын

You can ignore the people whining about the english translation. There is like 3 lines in the whole game that are a bit weird, everything else is standard jrpg to golden in terms of quality. For some reason Eiyuden Chronicals ended up on gamer gate 2.0s shit list and its really just those people whining and moaning.

They also made a quest based game in the world of eiyuden chronicle, with the extra development money, it is pretty good, it’s on both Xbox game pass and PlayStation +, it’s not turn based, it side by side action with combos, it’s about 4-10 hours to finish, check it out when you guys get a chance. It’s called Eiyuden Chronicle Rising Edit I made this comment while watching, so I didn’t see that he brought up rising at the end

Said this at the announcement of the premiere, but I am so glad that you picked up the game and enjoyed it. If you want you should also try out the prelude game Rising. If you end up doing everything from side missions to base expansion then you can actually transfer it over. From what ive seen there isnt much of a difference except in one area and maybe a little dialogue but if you dont mind the switch from jrpg to metoidvania and back then it is a great experience. Also it's a much shorter game so it is definitely a great hook for the story leaving you wanting more.

Oooooh, nice!! Admittedly, between FFVII Rebirth, my Pokemon Emerald Nuzlocke, Witcher 3, and the upcoming Paper Mario TTYD Remake... I'm a little full up on RPGs at the moment. But I've always heard good things about Eiyuden Chronicle, and it always seemed like something up my alley. And with your genuine enjoyment of it here, Lemon... Suffice to say, it's bumped itself up a bit on my list of things to play. Plus, on top of all that, I already love JRPGs to bits, and I'm an absolute sucker for the 2D-characters-in-3D-worlds style that's popped up with games like this, Octopath Traveler, etc. It just has so much charm...

@TheBacklogs Ай бұрын

Honestly, after looking at what people are upset about...I don't get it. Unless I've missed something, there's only a few lines that were changed in a 60 hour epic story. And not story-changing important lines, just one-off statements. I dunno. The dialogue felt normal enough to me, to the point that I didn't even know localization was a thing when I played the game. So unless I've missed something major, I think this might be a case of someone overreacting and the media following suit 🤷‍♂️

@tubey84 Ай бұрын

@@TheBacklogs Hi mate. The issue is the translation has been done by someone who has inserted their politics into it (is on record as saying so in the past that is their aim) - it wasn't just a few lines, it has butchered entire characters by making one in particular come across as childish etc. This isn't just a few overreacting; the end result of this translation is vandalism of the developers work. The translation itself, overall, is awful; there's numerous mistakes even if you discount the 'political' ones. I commented yesterday with genuine disappointment at seeing this video being paid for and glossing over this. If you honestly just had no awareness, that's actually fantastic as I love this channel - but please look it up and consider that it's not an overreaction and it's people who are genuine massive Suikoden fans who have looked forward to this game for years and seen a handful of people decimate it for selfish reasons. zakogdo on Twitter has a run down of the most egregious of the changes if you want to research; if not, all good, but I thought I'd give you a proper answer.

The gimmick with the RNG: As you said, it does not feel great, at all, but it seems way better than having a characters dealing five times more damage just like that. This way it is simply a risk/reward decision and I am fine with that. The death throes of the enemies. It only happened when fighting the soldiers of the Galdean Empire but it was admittedly strange.

As someone who always was, am and will be JRPG fan I went into Eiyuden expecting to enjoy it a lot, sadly personally I can't say the game is for me, I tried it for quite few hours but it just did not grip me, and it's not about slow start or anything like that that some people claim for it (I mean, hell, my favorite game series is Trails and that takes you on wild ride of several arcs and big story in background that gets resolved after 10 games in the series, so no, it's not about me not having patience) I dunno, maybe if I went deeper it would get better but if it didn't grip me in the time I gave it I don't think I can stick with it, it definitely has its charm and I tip my hat for them actually sticking to the 100 heroes monicker, the characters were (Generally) charming, but yea, personally not my thing, which is kinda sad

@donovanfaust3227 Ай бұрын

So you play lots of JRPGs, do you have any idea what he's rambling about in the intro? It honestly just feels like a sales pitch to me with him saying "JRPGs used to have this 'raw' feeling to them that modern JRPGs don't capture anymore, but this one that I'm getting paid to talk about totally does capture that vague feeling". Is there like an era thing I'm missing, or like a silver, gold, modern age thing he's talking about? Do you know what he might be talking about with that "raw" feeling to them?

@Galax94cz Ай бұрын

@@donovanfaust3227 The best I can interpret what he might mean is that older JRPGs used to be far more to the point and focused Take Persona for example, there is no denying that Persona 5 is great game and so is the recent Persona 3 remaster, however the OG Persona 3/P3FES had far more direct approach to things, it was more streamlined and there was not so much 'fluff' to it, like in Persona 5 you got billion side activities and minigames to do, where in P3 the most out of the ordinary thing you could've done was like... I dunno, crane game for Jack Frost doll? I can't say if that is what he means exactly but that is my best guess, and I can sorta see it too, from what I did play of Eiyuuden it was more to the point then most modern JRPGs in a sense, there were side activities and jokes as he mentions but it was small part all things considered, compared to like I mentioned Persona 5 where the side activities can easily take half your playtime

ATTENTION: Don't buy this game on PS4! The loading times make it PHYSICALLY painful to play. In Detail: It takes me about 6 seconds to load into a random ecnounter and then it takes roughly 10 seconds to return to the exploration screen. Every. Single. Time. And this game is truly honouring the golden JRPGs, meaning you will walk aorund for 10 - 25 seconds and then get jumped by an "invisible" enemy. At least in the beginning of the game, those encounters can be resolved by issuing the auto-combat command and one round of attacks. That takes betweeen 8 and 10 seconds, depending on how many special attacks are performed. At one point I got really unlucky with the encounter rng and playtime/blackscreen whrere roughly 50/50..... As a big fan of Final Fantasy, Suikoden , Wild Arms, etc. I was really enthusiastic after Lemon's video and maybe I will give it another chance on PC if my refund goes through.....
