Xth for the descendants of Fianna

Yeah you're probably right. I forgot Bamco is a bigger company than Atlus, NISA, or IFI.
I very much liked her performance. It wasn't the whiny valley-girl-ish voice she used for Chie or Noire. I didn't even put 2 and 2 together until I was looking over Alkaid's profile a few days ago.

how did that last one hit page 10 so fast?

Where's buttrice?

It was auto-saged

These are my friends.

Tips for gameplay? Completionist shit? Best/Worst Companions?

Alkaid is best girl in game and IRL.

IT'S OHM-RICE

r u new?

Post god-tier tracks

But he has a butt before rice, so it's buttrice. Right?

MY BOI SILABUS AND GASPARD WERE STILL MY MAIN TEAM!

In all honest I never looked at people's stats, also never knew if certain characters were clearly stronger than others. I just had characters I liked in my party, also Silabus and Gaspard are the OG team anyway. Silabus is sleeper OP in my opinion, like he just hides his power level. Same for Gaspard.

amazing how that meme took off with the fandom too.

Welp, I've officially been too steeped in today's games because I look at Haseo's Xth form now and hear Yuri Lowenthal screaming "Heroes never DIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!" despite, you know, predating mercy by a looong time.

Not to mention how I ended up loving how Haseo's appearance got more and more intricate each upgrade before going to a simpler design with xth form.

no I just never read the rules, cause i'm a rebel

i hope that these drumpf games disapear one day.
>muh anime
my vomit taste better than this basement goober shit.

The forums was one of the best parts about the games.

>That real-life Endrance
Jesus, how best can a boy be?

>He doesn't like anime or JRPG's
>Came into a thread discussing a JRPG weeb game
>Gets upset

Someone post the picture, because that's what this user did. He purposely chose to come into a thread that is discussing a game/genre he clearly doesn't like, and now he is mad. Look at him, look at him and laugh.

Go back to Call of Duty and Dark Souls while the rest of us enjoy ourselves.

Alkaid best girl

>MY BOI SILABUS AND GASPARD WERE STILL MY MAIN TEAM!

Who hurt you, user?

Will be playing with jap audio this time around. Gotten used to the dub but I felt that Alkaids VA didnt do her character justice

>Alkaid is a tomboy IRL, and Atoli doesn't even look anything like her character IRL.

Atoli is still really cute, so is Alkaid.

I used Alkaid in my party as long as I was able, and used Atoli and Sakubo for the entire Forest of Pain. Why a Harvest Cleric and a Shadow Warlock for the final post-game dungeon? Because they both do magic damage which nothing in there is immune to, unlike many bosses which require you to use your awakening to actually hurt them because they don't take physical damage.

Eh, I know that nobody likes them cause they're like side characters with no impact on the story but they're fun to party with.

Who do you have in your party?

We see Alkaid in the news, but I don't remember ever seeing RL Atoli.

So whatever happened to Kite and BlackRose? Did they just move on from the game?

I can't get a rengeki, i keep killing the enemys to fast. Balance my ass.

I like to think they met up IRL and just started banging and forgot about video games entirely.

>GU HD comes with a drama disc that explains events between volume 3 and 4
>Can only get it if you preorder the Japanese version
youtube.com/watch?v=Mr8a0o4j4DE
What is this bullshit?

uh, here comes the goobergators :S
>muh caluduty meme
Anime and shit is just old boring stuff. All JRPG's are just anime in video games. It's dead jim!

yeah, i wonder why.

Alkaid guaranteed
Mostly Kuhn because he's a bro, or SakuBo for magic.

So what MMORPG's were you anons playing in the early to mid 2000s?

>Balance my ass.
this

MapleStory

>Who do you have in your party?
I'll probably go back to Endrance and Bo for the most part. Matsu when i wanna fap though.

>Get excited because I can play ith my waifu again
>Remember she stops being available soon after being unlocked and doesn't come back until the end of Vol. 3
Give me Alkaid or give me death

I think FLYFF in the mid to late 2000's.

Funny thing is this image was included in the 4th OVA disc that came with .hack//Quarantine. The game got a Teen rating but the movie that came with it had nipples. Mind you, this was long before the "Hot Coffee" incident so I guess no one flipped out demanding the game be re-rated as AO?

Lineage 2 C4
Ragnarok Online
Then I realized MMORPGs are not my thing because I'm a lone fuck and grinding alone is boring

There's this thing called .hack//Archives, its got concept art, normal art and other little bits of lore in it, there was a third one in it was a very short novel called .hack//Legacy.

Legacy revolves around Kite and BlackRose hunting down the last data bug in the game, the data bug is connected to Kite's bracelet and Lios tells him by removing that data bug Kite will likely lose his bracelet.

Kite and BlackRose are already playing the game less at that point, since they're dealing with real life shit, and people are bugging them in game, since they're famous at this point.

The data bug ends up being a whole dungeon room itself, but Kite does his thing anyway and loses the bracelet and becomes a normal player.

The story ends with Kite revealing that his time meeting everyone inspired him to study up different languages in hopes he'll get a job in the future that allows him to go around the world and meet different people, he and BlackRose pretty much retire from the game, but still plan to meet up in the real world.

There's also this whole thing where Kite is afraid of losing his friends, and thinks the bracelet is what ties him to everyone, but he realizes its all him ...not like it matters we learn in GU he didn't keep in contact with anyone anyways.

>Hit max level
>Get best armor in the game
>Obliterating enemies
>Max out all weapon levels

The only thing I didn't max out was those virus core weapons for everyone, but I never found the game difficult, personally I think I only died once or twice maybe. Did people really find the game challenging or difficult? I know certain enemies were a bitch.

>Best/Worst Companions?
In terms of stats, any member of the Infinity Eight (Avatar users) are going to be best in class at pretty much every point in the game. Endrance is the most egerious example of this, because you get him halfway through Vol 1 and he makes the 5 Blade Brandier's you get later irrelevant as far as stats go. The only "worst" companion for combat is Matsu, and he's fine personality wise. He just purposely gimps himself.

That said, the game isn't difficult to the point where stats matter overmuch, so your party can basically be whoever you want as long as they're available. The story is pretty good about rotating them in and out. At the end of each volume all of them are available 24/7.

>Gameplay tips?
REN-GEKI

>Completionist shit?
There's actually a fuckton of shit you have to do for 100% in the Charm of 1000 if you want to go for that. You by no means have to do all of it, but I think you have to do a fair bit to level up your guild, which is required at certain points.

Final Fantasy XI. Those are days I'll never forget.

>"Hot Coffee" incident
oh i remember that, any links or webm for this shit?

>is boring
what this user said
Things got boring.

Nowadays i would rather believe in the flat earth theorie as to play another mmo-ish game

Only died when I decided to fight Ovan at the end of 2 underleveled

and let us be real here, flat earthers have more solid argument as the hardcore crybabys in this thread whoh still play old jrpg's

mainly ragnarok online and flyff. looking back at them now...i kind of miss them

It's a still image, that pans during the credits of .hack//GIFT

nothing to miss there, it was a nice time, it's over live goes on. There is better now.

SWG and WoW.

Thread theme youtube.com/watch?v=pef9uSOg9WE

The biggest issue with the difficulty was that you could over-level the fuck out of yourself if you wanted to and make every fight a breeze due to how chip damage and stagger effects worked.

no

The One Sin fights were a little difficult, but more like tedious I guess.

What the fuck are you even going on about? Are you legitimately retarded? The way you post and the things you're posting really make it seem so. If you don't like this series so much, then go to a thread for a series you do like. I know this is Sup Forums, but goddamn autists like you never cease to amaze.

Dub or sub, gayboys?

They censored this when they re-released it when Link was still new if I recall.

One Sin took me like half a fucking hour because that thing had like 10 million health.

The One Sin fight was actually really annoying I'll give you that.

I played it in dubs and didn't have a problem with it, personally I thought they did a great job on the English dub for the games.

Its a shitposter, just ignore them.

It's up to you. The dub is legitimately decent though.

oh boy, here we go again. Angry white male posting on Sup Forums hates to read other peoples opinion. Game is shit. Stay ass blasssted faggot.
.hack was always shit tier low level. Inblanace as fuck and actually had no fun.

>over-level the fuck out of yourself
jrpg's always had this problem. They never got good at this.

You tryin to make me cry user? Cause this is how you make me cry.

You member that time everyone went to a bar and got hammered?

Yes

In other news harass bamco NA on twitter to get the song added to the ps4 theme like it is on the Japanese version of the theme.

Not to mention you fight it like three goddamn times.

But I live in Japan and am going to buy the Japanese version once I get paid...

Try dub, if your ears start bleeding when Atoli or Gaspard start talking, go sub

Ignore the ESL shitposter. He's been sperging out like a retard in numerous threads. Dumb fuck can't even be bothered to learn how to capitalize letters.

with so many retarded anons here i rly have to start to believe the earth is flat.

But hey, keep burning your money for anime and waifu shit in video games.

Going into this series for the first time with the HD re-release, what am I'm expecting, and any tips for beginners?

I hope it sells well, I want a new series of .hack games.

>ESL shitposter
>everyone is a shill who disagree with me
fag, pls kys.

Lucky, if I had money and confirmation I would swap over to jpn psn and buy a second copy off jpn psn store if I knew for sure you could swap written language to english.

Also if you really want to cry. youtube.com/watch?v=6k6DEJGmQUA

Played all games at NA launch and when I got to this and saw my 3 years of refreshing dothackers was over I cried bitch tears as I knew it was all over from there.

why so butthurt user?

>give the jew more money
fuck the gaming industry. Even the japs, they are sexist anyway.

>in a thread he doesn't want to be in, about a game he doesn't like
>not a shitposter
k dude

So is there any adaptation of the original .hack? I know there's the recap videos in Last Recode but I was hoping there was something more thorough without playing the games

ha ha ha butthurt, go back playing cowadoody.

Gaspard is a whiny little tardface

Rengeki is your friend. But in all seriousness, the game is pretty straightforward. Just enjoy it.

That's what a lot of us are hoping for.

youtu.be/KCZHTNjV9lE?t=19s

Try not to tear up/rage at this user. I dare you. A decade later and I still see red.

.hack//XXXX is a manga adaptation of IMOQ but I don't know how good it is or if it's in english

got any prove for your shit imply user?

wtf are you even talking about kid?

Game is easy as fuck, doesn't really need tips
Just bear in mind, that after you finish one volume, if you choose to go to the next one, you'll likely skip a bajillion sidequests, which you won't be able to do anymore

...

Who did you marry?

what are you talking about? I just say the game serie and jrpg's are overall shit, overrated trash that never got better and just waifuist faggots buy these games to feel better with their little escapism syndrome.
.hackw as shit, this is my opinion, and now i want to discuss this here. Any problems you fucking hack shill? Yeah i know, a new hack game is coming and you guys just try to get people to talk about it again.

Everyone, just to see the scenes. My favorites were Alkaid, Bordeaux, Saku, Endrance and Azure Kite.

I was much younger and stupider when I last played. I went with atoli.

Nowadays I go with Alkaid.

It's in the EU version.

Aura

...

The only correct choice is Alkaid.

It's also funny to think that I used to have that exact same image as my computer wallpaper. 1024x768 is so tiny.

HNGGGG

Atoli is sad :
