Pretty sure that's the point.

Dead Space Remaster

Whatever this actually is it seems familiar. It's not Aliens: Colonial Marines is it?

It's Fallout 3 (TTW) Mothership Zeta.

Damn son you just exposed JDR13 as a filthy casual who plays Fallout 3.

Such a shame this game bombed. Bethesda blew shitloads of money marketing the shitty first one and didn't feel like making the same mistake a second time.

It has much better graphics than the first one, although I preferred the character(NPC, not monster)/costume design in TEW, which had a sort of "out-of-time" feeling to it. Everyone in TEW2 looks very modern and generic.

The environments in TEW1 look significantly better, both thematically - they actually utilized the game's premise and run with it - and in terms of their lighting and texturework whereas those of TEW2 look as bland as you get. The whole bloody game, both its environment and the protagonist's motivation, it's like you had SH1 remade by an aesthetically impaired AI.
I guess it -plays- smoother tho.

I think you'd be hard-pressed to compare TEW's lighting to TEW2's when comparing like-for-like (more enclosed, linear areas). Even if you prefer the look of TEW overall, TEW2 has extremely impressive lighting effects.

Jenkem (tbf, besides this I don't recall any other this kind of shit, although I didn't read closely everything either)

A way to cheese everything in this game.

Spoiler

So much free xp, it's crazy...

Another cheesed supposed-to-be-tough encounter.

Killing potential companions showers you in XP for some reason.

So I did the romances in Zanki Zero and the CGs for them depend on what age the characters are at. They can also show either the man or the woman. This happened.

Is it any good? I've had my eye on most of Fairy Tale's work for a while, but I don't read Japanese very well, and I'm sure since its an adult title its full of the harder kanji.

Tried Rejection: Dennou Shoujo a few days ago. The idea to combine grid-based dungeon crawling with manual aiming is pretty fresh to me, as I've only seen it in Dimensional Fighter Epsilon3.

I think the concept is pretty neat and deserves further exploration, but my first impressions are somewhat mixed. I can see what the developers were going for, with laborious movement and turning (you need to manually move the cursor to the edge of the screen to turn around, and move the cursor while holding a button to move) adding to the survival horror vibes on paper, but in reality it doesn't feel as responsive as I'd like it to be, which makes exploration and mapping the dungeon in my head less enjoyable.

Combat is handled in the dungeon itself, and at first it seems very simple -- just aim at the enemy and blast away. However, enemies tend to move around and try to dodge your attacks, and you also need to pay attention to the recoil -- SMGs and shotguns will make the reticle fly through the fucking roof, leaving you vulnerable for a while. Throw in resource management, and you have a pretty neat formula, but I get the feeling it'll get stale unless new enemy types and additional mechanics get introduced within a few hours.

I'll play it some more at a later date, since there aren't many games like it.

The art and music are pretty nice, but my Japanese skills aren't good enough to appreciate the story. I'll definitely return to it after improving my skills.

How did you get this running? I was actually trying to run this yesterday, but kept running into errors, that I only got as far as understanding they were errors.

Did you get stuck at the main menu or smth like that?

IIRC you need to set up a joystick in the input controls and insert a blank diskette into drive 0. Create user disk by selecting the first option in the menu, then select the second to start the game.

Yeah, I was stuck on the menu. I had the joystick part figured out, albeit accidentally. I'm using the Neo Kobe emulator pack, and it seems the joystick there is preconfigured. I thought it was weird the confirmation button was Z. It never occurred to me it needed an emulated floppy. Thanks for the help.

FM Towns games use floppy disks for save data, so if a game refuses to run out of the box or displays errors on start, it's a good idea to start there. Also, user disk formatting and starting a new game is pretty slow (in case of Rejection), so don't panic if it takes a minute or so to get things started.

The confusing feeling when you're garbage at a game but you're somehow carrying the team and stomping the enemy team...

I've heard it was a when originally released.
Is it worth playing now?
