    Moonspeak Help me remember an ancient SNES JRPG

    A game just came to mind, and I would like to see if someone on the RPG Codex remembers of it. It has been decades, so much has been lost to memory.

    Why don't these high budget JRPGs and gachas hire good writers?

    (This overlaps with some of the live service games in the MMO section like WoW and FF14 and Genshin, but I'd figured that the JRPG forum would be more active and interested in talking about story). Writing is perhaps the cheapest role in an RPG (just need one guy with a laptop and microsoft...

    Incline JRPG rebalance and difficulty mods/hacks - in-depth discussion

    JRPGs offer gameplay that is usually centered around specially designed systems which, while often highly original and promising, do not live up to the expectations they create, as they're either too unbalanced or the difficulty is cranked down to much to appeal to casual gamers. Therefore, I...

    Thread about analog drift and analog response curves on controllers.

    Basically I effort-posted over on a thread about controllers in General Gaming but no one is going to read it there and I don't want to let my effort-post go to waste, so I'm pasting it here in its own thread :) Analog drift comes from how the potentiometers interact within the analog module...

    Gold Box The Dragonlance/Krynn series thread

    I'm making this thread because I believe talking about all 12 Gold Box games in a single megathread is disgusting, so this place would be about the Krynn series in particular. If you decide to move this post to that ghetto anyway, at least be consistent and also merge all discussions about...

    JRPG equipment upgrade.

    Do you upgrade as soon as you get something better? Let's say your character right now is using armor with 10 Def, the shop now has one with 11 Def, do you upgrade as soon as you can or wait for a 15 Def to be on sale? I hate having to change equipment so i always wait for something with at...
