Tbh there is plenty of crappy writing in western RPGs and open world games too; jrpgs are just a topic of interest.

When I think about games with great storytelling I usually jump to short adventure games. Stuff like Tacoma or NitW or Technobabylon. I have a really hard time thinking of games in longer formats that have great writing. Like the best recent JRPG story I’ve played, Persona 5, still has obvious huge problems and doesn’t justify all its length. Am I missing good, recent examples in JRPGs or is there work to be done at improving this?

Feel free to chip in.

@ShugoWah@snouts.online If you want a jrpg with solid writing, uhh. Uhh. This is actually a huge problem

Arcade thoughts:

* Rhythm games are king, baby
* Museca taught me that arcade games have pretty complex menus these days??? Maybe it’s the language barrier
* groove coaster arcade impressed me way more than I expected it too. Didn’t get to play the Undertale songs though
* Gunslinger Stratos is a bizarre arcade resident. Team based online shooter???
* SOUND VOLTEX
* I can’t figure out which car games are good
* I played TGM2 and had a moment of zen

@Hulex@snouts.online also my brother is asking how he can get a home setup going. Where did you order your controller?

drug stuff, "I have lived a sheltered life" question 

is there a difference in odor between a tobacco cigarette, vaping, and marijuana?

I'm surrounded on all sides by lucarios and lucario pooltoys

WHY does a movie called "Fantastic Beasts" barely use said beasts in its plot

it drives me bananas

@Hulex@snouts.online What are the best rhythm game(s) to play on a standard controller?

Thanks for the responses; I think I'm just having a negative night and taking it out on the media that's in front of me.

Horizon Zero Dawn

@KommaChameleon a swish of a claw, and it must be fate
a huge fish just lands on your plate

a few dozen courses later, you're looking more plump
and planks creaking under your cute gluttonous rump

@KommaChameleon a sailor, running low on supplies
following the sound of those distant cries

in your cabin, sipping the last rum from your flagon
when you catch sight of the famed merdragon

bigger than a whale, looking straight down at you
"no, no, this simply won't do"

"you're all skin and bones; now i have a hunch
what you need is a nice seafood lunch"
