    ok so the thing about arc the lad

    is that it is the earliest game i am aware of that lets you transfer your save data from one game to the next

    in arc the lad 2, you play as an entirely new party. the cast of arc 1 are all fugitives who are wanted for committing a bunch of horrible war crimes, because the bad guys have been framing them for all their bad guy stuff ever since the end of the first game.

    Eventually, you get to a boss fight that's way too hard for your guys to deal with. and then just before you get wiped, the party of the first game shows up, and if you have an Arc 1 endgame save, they'll have all the stats and equipment from it

    it was so cool when i was 11

    UFO50 has this conceit where all of its games were made by fictive developers within this one company, and if you care enough about the conceit, you can read between lines and track how the various games are influenced by these competing voices.

    There's this one dev-within-the-game, Thorson Petter. Even in anecdotes told in two-sentence allusion, he's an annoying, pretentious blowhard. His games are abrasive and demand you embrace their own weird, insular logic. He is a parody of a certain kind of game dev.

    They keep being my favorites, because I am a parody of a certain kind of game player.

    Arc the Lad 1 is a super, super early PS1 game and boy it shows

    But I really enjoyed Arc the Lad 2

    Arc the Lad 3 is kind of mediocre to poor, unfortunately

    yeah perhaps the only problem is that playing through arc 1 just to tee up the thing in arc 2 is a minor slog

    the good thing is that at least it's a relatively short game, especially for a JRPG

    i remember arc 2 being a huge sprawling epic but i was again also 11 years old when i played it so who knows if that's accurate or not

    Square Enix owns Arc the Lad nowadays iirc, and it's kind of tragic how badly they've forgotten about it. If anything deserves to board the contemporary Square Enix remake train it's Arc 1/2.

    Edit: Correction, Sony owns it it looks like, G-Craft owned Front Mission but not Arc, they just developed it. Yeah that IP is just dead and not coming back then.

    The game transfer thing sounds like what Golden Sun did a few years later. Though back then the transfer was writing down a code and it was VERY easy to muck up the code since the font was atrocious.

    they also used the same technology to let two players import their saves into a separate game that came with the collection, Arc Arena, so you could have your parties fight each other

    which wasn't actually all that fun but the novelty of it was cool

    The earliest game I remember that allowed you to import saves from previous games was Phantasie III: Wrath of Nikodemus back in 1987 on Amiga.

    This probably would have been more impressive if Phantasie II had ever also been ported to Amiga as well, but alas. I have no idea how that was supposed to work, at least on Amiga. I'm informed it did work just fine on DOS.

    The earliest earlier-game savegame import I'm aware of is 1982's Wizardry II: The Knight of Diamonds, which originally required you to import your party from the first game (Wizardry: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord).

    1983's Wizardry III: Legacy of Llylgamyn also made you import your save from 1 or 2 but, to quote Wikipedia,
    However, since the game is set years later, the characters are actually the descendants of the original characters. They keep the same name and class, can select a new alignment (class permitting), and are reset to level one.

    UFO50: I'm gonna spoiler this.
    There are hidden games in games. Three have been found so far, and I'm super curious if this is going to become UFO100 by the end.

    I semi-recently replayed Golden Sun, so I can confidently say it's only 260 characters long on the most detailed version (you could decide how much you cared about getting their entire inventory or just their djinn and level, etc.)

    Golden Sun was great.

    Trying to decide of the discount on Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes is big enough to grab it, notice that, while Steam reviews have it as Mostly Positive, on GoG the top reviews are all 1 star. So I look into it, worried that GoG might have some unpatched version and it turns out that
    a) GoG doesn't require you own the game to comment&rate it
    b) all the comments are some flavour of "ermagerd Sweet Baby, DEI, non literal translation that totally botches the legacy of the original writer"

    Ah. Right.

    I didn't really gel with Eiyuden, most of the interactions are exceedingly simple, and the combat is easy but takes quite a lot of time.

    The other big game that comes to mind as "It's worth playing through this reasonably fun but very early PS1 game just to import a save into this other PS1 JRPG masterpiece" is Suikoden to Suikoden 2

    That's a shame, I was really looking forward to a Suikodenlike.

  • Houk the NamebringerHouk the Namebringer Nipples The EchidnaRegistered User regular
    I bought Eiyuden on sale and within like an hour realized it was extremely not for me, but decided not to refund it because I still wanna support folks trying to make games like Suikoden and also yeah fuck those reactionary chuds

  • McHogerMcHoger Registered User regular
    To me, Eiyuden Chronicle very specifically evoked the feeling of playing the first Suikoden game, a game I have a lot of affection for. It's definitely a flawed game but I ended up enjoying my time with it.

  • Grey GhostGrey Ghost Registered User regular
    Hell maybe I'll buy Eiyuden just to piss those people off. What's its deal, what do you do in it

    yeah that's the feeling I was hoping for and very much did not get, but again I'm glad they tried and I'm happy to see more folks aim for that kind of thing

    Eiyuden absolutely wanted to be Suikoden 2, but those are big pants

    On its own merits the game is basically fine

    Some of the mini games suck real bad though

  • ElderlycrawfishElderlycrawfish Registered User regular
    Like most games these days, I played a bit of Eiyuden, got busy, and never got back to it. One of these days, I'll get to my backlog....

    (Probably not)

    The one that sticks out to me is golden sun.

    Because the first game just ends at the halfway point of the story and just….had no indication prior that it was just part one.

    Then part two comes out and there is an extremely complicated code you get from doing a rather random series of button presses on the first game main menu.

    Humor can be dissected as a frog can, but dies in the process.
  • MadicanMadican No face Registered User regular
    I still haven't actually played Golden Sun 2 because I could never get the transfer code correct from 1. And I still have them both in GBA form.

    My partner is playing some Stalker mod as his intro to the game, and we started chatting in the midst of him looting after finally completing some difficult enemy base mission. He was feeling some kinda way, so I jostled his arm as I suggested we go sit outside for a bit. ...aaaaaand some mysterious note got disassembled, unread, forever a mystery.

    nooooooooooo

    He's not fussed, just laughing at the absurdity, but I had a brief doom spiral into searching up game guides.

    UFO 50 is absolutely crazy.

    due to a misclick i ended up playing Party House first, and it's a really competent little deckbuilder.
    then i played a little Mortolia, which is... Lemmings? but aiming for perfect platforming runs? amazing.

    there are still 48 games in here. this is totally insane.

  • LucedesLucedes might be real Registered User regular
    UFO 50 might already be my game of the year because it redefines certain conceits of the modern genre and packaging of video games.

    like not in a pretentious way but it reminds me of a short story collection in a medium that has already abandoned trying to sell this form and has instead gone all-in on novels and it’s sort of… important to me as an artist to remember a well-tended and complete minimalism is okay? in game design. it’s perfect. it is beautiful. it is a love letter to game design and to video games. it is the realization of a hundred doodles that are no longer commercially viable. i feel like someone sold me their notebook, or their childhood dreams.

    I loved it at the start (played it via GamePads), but hit a roadblock early on and stalled. Tell me if it keeps being good and there are no bugs, I might just buy it on Steam.

    I'm on the Fifth of presumably Nine Sols and it is kicking my ass, I think I've spent more than 2 hours on it today

    I've learnt all it's attacks but it gets to the point where it's using all of them so rapidly that I my fingers get all muddled

    Still, it seems solvable without luck so I'll keep going
    I do love Lady Ethereal's backstory though, honestly heartbreaking. And the reveal that they are just a brain in a jar, perpetually trapped between a dream and a nightmare

    And the reveal that a room you've passed through a few times at this point was actually hiding her and the rest of the brains behind an illusion

    Man this game rules
