Go away Jogurt, no one likes you.

>There will never be a good Shining Force game ever again

>tfw in every playthrough of shining force i always made jogurt deliver the final hit to the last boss

Hi Jogurt.

You're still a faggot joke character. Just saying.

I like you user. I miss shining force

Go away, I'm here for Gong.

Fuck, I miss Shining Force

Who /domingo/ here?

>tfw can't like Zylo anymore because of furries

Everyone.

what was even the point of this character?

...

>tfw all the cool characters start out shit, but fucking wreck face if you grind the fuck out of them

what the hell, this fucker starts out hitting for single digits but by chapter 8 if you keep his level up he's fucking one-shotting bitches left and right, flies and defense is jacked. the robot dude was exactly the same way too

...

I like that this shit appeared in Shining Tears. Kind of convinced me it that game least had the heart of a shining game buried in there.

Biggest waste of time and effort ever made.

...

...

Could you ever make him useful? Like give him stat boost potions or items?

No, he is a piece of shit torought the whole fucking game.
Not even adam is so shit.

...

No. He's worthless. He can't even actually increase levels(I think?)

The only notable things about is his Mov which is 7 and if you(somehow) kill an enemy with him you get a Jogurt ring. Which turns a character into him.

I remember this being my first game and getting curbstomped during the laser fight.
Also the Chaos Breaker is the thighest shit ever

>that knight that starts off completely dogshit but ends up a powerhouse that learns magic

You're a casual scrub for doing that, but only because it means you've never done a minimum characters run.

>Chaos Breaker
Yes.

Still don't like the name change it got. I know there's a canon reason for it but still.

>name change
What?

You know the Force sword in Shining force 2? Yeah that's the Chaos Breaker actually.

Very very long story short. In the Game gear Shining force game Final Conflict. It got renamed to force sword.

Worthless level 1 magic though
>Read guides saying Arthur becomes the strongest knight if you endure his shitty stats until level 20
>Get excited expecting the best character ever
>He indeed becomes the best knight, but the difference is so insignificant that it doesn't even feel worth of trouble

>tfw you learn Bolt 4

I love that every character could be a fucking powerhouse if you dedicated enough time to power leveling them, really brought out my inner autism

Furry or not, Wolf Baron is the coolest class name ever.

>canon girl is centaur knight
Shining Force was ahead of its time

They changed that in the GBA remake.

But let's ignore that,

Is there anything the GBA remake actually did right? Everything became trash, even the graphics look shit, and the new characters are all imbalanced and gimmicky.

The GBA remake was a fucking sin, looks like shit, new characters are special snowflakes and fucking card mechanics was completely unecessary

I liked the new battle theme that plays when you get promoted. But that's it.

I did play it a really long while back. But I don't really recall shit about much of it other then a few things.

...

it hurts.

I just want cute centaur waifus and turn based strategy. why is that too much to ask?

The bug assassin is cool looking at least.

Damn

>no horse pussy
Why am I expected to care?

>You will never save the world with retro anime rpg aesthetic ever again

Tao would catch the hard D.

Also, so would cameela.

Personal hardest stage for you anons?
Mine was:
>circus, fuck you freeze 3
>the church, fuck you surrounded by enemies so you have to rush
>laser, fucking flying pieces of shit in my way >ship, only stage where you would need antidote + fucking bats on steroids
And any fucking stage with robots, fuck those shits.

Same, that circus always fucked my shit up

Man I couldn't get Bleu and Adam working to save my life

Laser is piss easy, but you have to be patient and let the Laser Eye kill the other enemies for you.

...

Laser Eye is also easily cheesed if you just use all your flyers.

The Church was my roadblock stage growing up playing Shining Force.

As an aside. One my favorite stages was the one where it's just a straight up fight with your party and that Dragon dude's army. No tricks or anything like that.

BEST SONGS

Book reading elf is best elf

To think we will never get another Shining Force and anything that could be Fantasy+Sci-fi is faggy shit like FFXV.
Your hero wasn't an edgelord surrounded by special snowflakes, you were just a swordsman trainee surrounded by other regular soldiers and a few veterans, it gets kinda crazy at the end but still.

Oh, we'll get another Shining Force. It'll just be yet another Vita or mobile Japan-exclusive game like all the others.

Shining Force on Game Gear
in the church, near the end of the game, battle with the undead king

It was the first Shining Force I'd ever played

What do you mean canon girl?

>Your hero wasn't an edgelord surrounded by special snowflakes
That's not uncommon as people make it looks like.

Original had Mae being your legit waifu, gba remake had a system which let you pick your waifu/husbando

The fuck, I thought in the original the MCs waifu was Anri. Is there an official mention this is canon is any of the other games?

Mae wasn't a pink-haired elf who set everything on fire so she was never my waifu.

He exists to be the true answer to all those "Worst party member" threads.

should i download the gba remake?

like, what does it add to the game?

>I thought in the original the MCs waifu was Anri
user no. Anri became the queen later on. When Shining force CD happens.

I fapped to Sarah's Master Monk sprite a lot.

Three new characters, expanded story, endless NG+ system.

Too bad all of the above are trash.

It adds new characters, NG+, some more story but it also adds a cards system that I never understood and the game itself looks ugly as fuck.
Seriously, the game its basically the same but it looks so fucking ugly in comparison of the sega version that you can actually get mad.

>but it looks so fucking ugly in comparison of the sega version that you can actually get mad.
GBA version looks too..bright? I can't really put it in words. I think the darker color pallet works better.

Shining Force > Fire Emblem

Too much pastel colors. It looks like a kindergarten classroom.

Yeah. That works.

The models look lazier, a lot of detail is gone, effects like the chaos breaker fire wave looks like shit, enemies that used to shoot lasers now shoot blue cum.

Obviously.

I like the new Shining games.

What games? I thought they never did anything after 2
Or there are chink-only games?

That's fine.

ANRI 4 LIFE. That bitch saved me so hard my first play-through of Shining Force because I was such a dumb kid.

>My max out leveled everyone
>Anri is second
>Just tank the entire game with max while he dishes out mad damage with chaos breaker while Anri cleans house with Freeze 4

All of my other characters couldn't really keep up except both dwarves.

I think that was the cool part.
Domingo looks like what the fuck but later starts getting so much Defense he becomes flying mage bulwark, Bleu tears shit to pieces, Khris turns into impenetrable healing fortress, Arthur despite being exceptionally shitty centaur knight suddenly starts learning magic (since he was hanging around some magic academy iirc) although still remains useless, Gantz turns into murderbot
The one i've never had patience to check out is Adam, he joins too fucking late to bother

I can't remember at what lvl it happens (10?0 but once he hits certain lvl he gives you Yoghurt Ring which makes anyone equipped with it look like Jogurt.
That's it

Jogurt doesn't level up. He gives you a Jogurt Ring when he defeats a enemy.

Mascot character, yes, yoghurt is the mascot for the shining games.

this

This list makes me sad.

are any after cd and maybe 3 worth playing?

Also Shining in the Darkness is severely underrated

If you liked Shining in the Darkness. then you owe it to yourself to play Shining the Holy ark.

I really liked Shining Force when I first played it but I tried to replay it recently and holy fuck does it ever suck. The battles are super slow, there's not much strategy in the gameplay, there's lots of dumb random shit like double deadly attacks, the AI is retarded, the promotion system is dumb, the game's difficulty is retardedly unbalanced (the enemies start getting weaker halfway through), and there's a ton of other problems. Still, I appreciate the nice light-hearted atmosphere and I love TRPGs in general.

Shining Force II is just an absolute abomination though, it's completely unplayable nowadays.

I liked the Souls games. They're pretty standard hack-and-slash RPG games but decent for what they are, especially the second one.

>Shining Force II is just an absolute abomination though, it's completely unplayable nowadays.
Care to explain why?

Similar complaints to SF1 but even worse. Battle system and AI are terrible, map design is even worse especially the godawful "random battles" you fight as you explore the map, speaking of which the whole exploration thing was terrible because the writing is horrendous and there's no worldbuilding or anything at all that makes the setting interesting. In general it seems like the dialogue was written by a kindergartner, and yet it doesn't have any of the same charm that SF1 had.
At least the graphics are pretty.

Same reason Legend of Dragoon will never get a remake/spiritual successor.

Same reason Final Fantasy has moved away from its wholesome RPG roots.

Same reason Nintendo will never make a console that gets taken seriously again.

I liked the variety of characters, plus hidden mithril items, and secret promotions were great. The first time I got a secret promotion I was mindblown.

Too bad it was a pegasus that sucked

>In general it seems like the dialogue was written by a kindergartner, and yet it doesn't have any of the same charm that SF1 had.
I liked it. Honestly the localization may have something to do with it. Because characters can say some pretty fucked up shit.

>"It's okay if he dies. He's old anyway" or something like that

>MC is your typical JRPG boy
>when you promote him after killing dozens of people with him he actually looks more mature, his innocence gone
i miss this game

>first time I got a secret promotion
I gave up from Kazin's promotion because he lost all his spells.
I gave up from Sarah's promotion because her attack dropped hard (didn't realize she wasn't equiped with her staff anymore).

Fuck me.

>kazin loses all his spells
>when you use his new magic it's super weak hitting for less then blaze 1 does

never found out until years later that the sorc spells actually did more damage if you only hit a single target

>Circus tent full of marionettes

You neglected to actually divulge the reason.

It's obvious: Life is terrible for no good reason, and people with money often waste it for no good reason.
