Every single one has ass tier combat. Exempting older CRPGs, of course.
You will...because it hasn't had a new chapter in for fucking ever.

Yea that one is sick as well as the Super Turbo and Alpha 2 Silhouette. Next pay check I'm buying those.
Enjoy it while it lasts, once you catch up you can look forward to the next issue being released in the short time frame of a few decades or so.
I'm enjoying reading the physical books, so my wallet puts a natural limit on how quickly I'm going to get through this.

He can import Idolm@ster games when that happens to practice Japanese more. Get the full experience.
Anime killed Manga
Oh man I might have to grab that 3S one. Too sick

Being lonely and depressed killed Berserk.

I can't remember the last jrpg I really liked unless you count Dragon's Dogma. But I love all the Bethesda games and Dragon Age Inquisition and Mass Effect 2.
Japan has been fucking up for like the last generation so I dunno what to say. What was the last jRPG where the characters had any personality? Certainly not the Persona games.

Looks like we may be getting Battle Fantasia on steam soon. Teaser image looks like a filtered image with the HUD from that game.
Enjoy some Ashley combos folks...his heat mode is Godlike.
I'm embarresed I though it was Xrd. ;_;

Doesn't read OPs, especially not his own
I was wondering if I entered a thread about JRPGs for a sec.

Isn't Urien pretty much confirmed because of Charlie? He was the one in charge of the Illuminati's genetic/Clone program.

To be fair who would think that one of their first titles after GG that was done as an experimental title designed to both draw in a female audience and be more accessible to players would get a rerelease when Blaz Blue did far better? For that matter why bring it back when Xrd is the new hotness?
For those curious it has a neat counter system thats easy to do and has three uses that let you do SF3 parries, a wall bounce juggle, or a special stun state and a heat mode thing that lets you chain together stuff you normally can't for a short period. Plus scaling is tweaked on damage based on health so the crazy differences in health stats mean far less than they seem due to the damage output of combos. Makes it easy to style and easy to defend. Still gets pretty tight too. Fun game.

If Urien comes back I think he will messily destroy Bison with one of the 66 secret arts of the illuminati, then later on Gill will come back and destroy Urien, then after that Seth will come back and do something I guess, and after that Bison will come back with two capes this time.

In 2 weeks there is going to be an episode of "Aru's Room" with Tokyo University Graduate Tokido and a Tokyo University Graduate shogi player.
Millia Pin proxy OS is going to be the dumbest fucking thing ever.

Ironic that the only(?) modern game that teaches you an OS is getting lit up by them.

what are they going to talk about?
KidA Seven

The difference between what they do as a gamer/shogi player
How their lives differ
How it was growing up in school
Things like that
speaking of UNIEL. what ever happened to Filia being in UNIEL?
EDIT:
also random FG question:
what do you guys prefer as a fighting game; Weapon Fighters (Guilty Gear, Samurai Showdown, Soul Calibur) or Hand to Hand Fighters (Street Fighter, Tekken, King of Fighters)?
speaking purely as personal aesthetics not favorite title.

I think Filia was just a fan service art piece. I dont think there was a plan to incorporate her.
I like characters with special and supernatural abilities. Neither of the above game types please me. That is why is use Zero in Xrd, and I mess with Blanka and Oni in Street Fighter.
Weapon based, even though I always end up hating them vs hand to hand.

If you go towards the lower end of the spectrum in terms of budget then you get better written characters and/or that try to salvage the rest of the game.
Nier and Resonance of Fate are examples of such. I liked Persona 2's characters though...

Give me the closest fist to fist combat character you can get. Love me some Dudley boxing.

Persona 2 EP was helped by not being about a bunch of anime highschoolers.

When's Nine? Are they almost done adding random schoolgirls from the graphic novels?

VF5FS taught them as well, and that's fairly modern.

I hope you're right. It's the one Arcsys game I like.
Also it's the only FG created by a woman that I know of, (and she's very nice on Twitter!)

Hand to hand all the way. Think the only game where I play a character that uses a weapon is Yukari in Ultimax.

Oh, fuck no.
I like both, as well as sorcerer-type things like Zato-1 and Hilda. It's more about the overall vibe of the game's aesthetic than how they beat each other up.
The main things I don't really like are modern Soul Caliburs fucking up the game's fantasy swordfighting aesthetic something fierce, atrocious custom costumes, SFxT, Mortal Klunk: Unweighted Animation Edition, and the dull blandness that is modern Tekken. A game has to have direction, and Tekken doesn't have any aesthetically.
