Very fair, and you'd get to use the touchscreen for that as intended, but this would also get closer to parity with the Steam version. And I think it'd be a waste of a good mechanic to not include it as an option, since it's the easiest transition from controller to mouse.
(That is, of course, assuming they don't just put any such new collection out for Switch 1 instead. It'd be in line with history on when some of these games release.)

>>568584126
I actually didn't even use the touchscreen for the hd collection since I didn't have a stylus. Analog sticks felt fine to me. But yeah, I could see another hd collection having Switch 2 mouse support if it happens.

Are the PSP games more difficult?

>>568745617
No, they're much easier.

>>568745617
I've actually been doing a second play-through recently. Admittedly, the random encounters are generally very easy and the encounter rate is really high. Samurai's ability to turn off low level encounters is hugely important. Though once you get to Nevan the random encounters start to get harder until your level and gear catches up. On Flame Eater now.

>>568745617
>Are the PSP games more difficult?
Probably depends highly on party comp but from my experience 2020 follows the same difficulty curve as the DS game where it's not a cakewalk at the start but then you sorta steamroll most of the game without much trouble. 2020-ii is generally a bit more difficult than the previous two.

Postgame is another story but it's more of a slog than anything.

You have to pick only one.
Teach or Mediko?

>>568750360
Which one is willing to go liberated?

>>568748160
I just beat Flame Eater's first fight, but going without a healer has been both exciting and a bit annoying. I signed up for this Sealing/Arrow Follower build and I love it, but the item requirements do have me going to town a lot. The inventtory limit has been especially annoying for things like the 100 feathers quest but the game feels so good. MP Regen to this degree is pure crack
>>568748359
I really wanna try Samurai/Destroyer/Hacker for 2020 and Samurai/Psychic/Idol for 2020-II, those alright?

>>568750437
no stipulations, you have to choose with your heart.
or penis. I don't really care.
You can only pick one.

>>568750961
Yeah, MN is tight and you either want a healer or princess for MN recovery. I prefer princess overall since healer has to constantly spam Craft Mana. The inventory limit is annoying, I wish they at least let you use your house in Kazan to store stuff. Ex boosted heal aerosols are great in a pinch for AoE healing.

>>568751752
I didn't know EX boosted items, or is it just the speed at which you use them?
Also agreed, I've been running Samurai/Rogue/Fighter/Princess and it's a blast

File: 125271515_p0.png (697.5 KB)

>>568752005
EX also boosts the strength of healing items in addition to speed. It's a great way to get stronger heals in a pinch since it'll double the amount healed. My first run was that party except with mage instead of fighter and it was a really solid party. Now I'm using fighter/samurai(different stance this time)/knight/healer. Without a knight, my first run had me carrying around a gorjillion bloom regulators but I've had more inventory space this time thanks to Walk Safe (which is amazing). The wiki has a lot of useful information but there is gaps and lots of stuff missing.

But it's a videogame, why would they be? I think most people would feel a bit of pity for the Forest Folk but it took me a second to even realize it was a setup since I was more preoccupied with the gameplay.
Speaking of which, I'm enjoying EO1 on DS a lot more than my Untold runs (it has that FM Towns look that I loved when looking through Wizardry ports) but I do miss the Guildkeepers. Kupala getting that extra bit of love is one of the few reasons I didn't mind the Story Modes

Is there something from etrian that spoiled you from other dungeon crawlers? For me, it's the level of synergy between classes there are. Ninou did the same for 7th Dragon, it feels satsifying to be rewarded for certain combos or party comps. Class balance is another thing, it's rare to have classes that feel bad. Some can be way better than the rest but even the worst ones don't feel awful. Other wizardrylikes will dump a premade party at you and you can't stray too far, or they rely heavily on reclassing

File: number_1.png (48.2 KB)

>>568769581

I always thought my top 3 went for-chan, lolimancer, and 'tummy rover', but I guess the sleeper hits of the classic classes pulled up through the ranks.

I recently finished eo1, I really loved it. It was my first dungeon crawler vydia, are there any other games that I should play that will hook me as much as this one? I also have 2 and 3 but I don't want to insntatly jump to 2 because I heard it's really similar to the first one. Looking for other dungeon crawlers that are similar, or that are really good. I also really liked the anime aesthetics of eo.

I must confess. I don't like bunny.
I love bnnuy.

>>568815732
Just play 3 next and get back around to 2 later then

>>568815732
>Looking for other dungeon crawlers that are similar, or that are really good
I recommend the "Etrian Odyssey" series. So just play the rest of them, especially since you already own 2 and 3. 2 is good but 3 is definitely the best of the DS trilogy in my opinion and just in general. It has a new set of classes and should feel "fresher". I still like 1 but I think 3 is far better. You might burn out regardless if you try to play too many EO games back-to-back though but you can always come back if that happens.

>>568807598
not like there's anything else to spend it on since I'm doing hell slash and everything relevant is already maxed. I was thinking I'd just go autobattle on a previous floor until it procs whenever needed

>>568815732
Pace yourself, anon. If you let the hyperfixation win, you'll burn yourself out. When you're ready to go back to it, there's a ton. Demon Gaze, Labyrinth of Refrain (the sequel is better though), Mary Skelter, Ray Gigant, Stranger of Sword City, The Lost Child, Kowloon High School Chronicle, or 7th Dragon if you're looking for something a bit different but familiar are great choices. If you wanna lean more into the Wizardry side of things, there's Class of Heroes, Operation Abyss and Babel (Generation Xth in general), and Wizardry: Labyrinth of Lost Souls, among other games.
Why not try out the sister series, Megami Tensei, as well? They're so tight knit that I remember SMTIV gave you bonuses for Etrian streetpass data. Strange Journey shared a lot of love on DS with the original Etrian trilogy

>>568825856
>I was thinking I'd just go autobattle on a previous floor until it procs whenever needed
It only works on the turn they're KO'd.

>>568829353

Etriam where nukes are a plot point but no-one but the player has any idea what they are or what they can do.

I wanna start from the beginning, how has the DS original aged? Or should I go with the untold classic mode?

>>568872018
The original is still a fine game that offers a somewhat different experience from the rest of the series that Untold doesn't really recreate. I do still recommend both since Untold throws a lot of curveballs if you're familiar with the original. It's a bit like RE1 vs REmake if you're familiar with them though there's even more differences between 1 and Untold.

>>568872018
As >>568873687 said, both have an appeal. I played Untold first because I could never find EO1 at stores here, and the stair teleport alone changes a lot of the dynamics. The grimoires are annoying even if they help a lot, but they also change things, along with some balance changes. Playing through the DS original recently, and it feels a lot more satisfying getting through the first stratum.

File: 1778040661321631.jpg (835.9 KB)

>>568872018
The original 1 is still enjoyable but the series has improved a lot since then so keep that in mind. Random encounters in 1 are at their simplest but it's still a good game overall. I'd go with 1hd if you want to start with 1 since it helps smooth things out. I have a chip on my shoulder over the Untold games due to story mode but they are good on classic so stick to classic when you do play them. Start with 1 and if you're not feeling it, consider skipping to 3 or 4. It'll be harder to go back to the original 1 after playing newer entries though. 2 is also good but it's kind of a weird starting point due to it having some unique quirks. I actually like it more than 1 but I like 3 more than both.

>>568929376
The story is poop but the game itself was a lot of fun until you reach the point where you've explored every island but still have 4 more strata of the main dungeon to go. Like the game portion is still mostly enjoyable but the plot sadly goes into overdrive at that point.

>I think I'll finish 3 this time!
>beat Ketos
>stop
Every time.

>>568929376
It calls itself Pokemon Odyssey but its really some guy's fanfic that includes EO, Made in the Abyss and random stuff like Yugioh. If anything knowing anything about EO's plot will make you dislike if not outright hate the writing once the plot kicks in for real.
As a pokemon hack for gameplay, its not bad because doubles hacks are rare and seeing random pokemon cosplay as EO stuff can be fun.

What I like about 7th Dragon DS is how simple it is to make synergistic teams.
Fighter has the follow skills so you'll want to bring a Mage or Rogue.
If you bring a Mage, then you can bring Knight since Provoke + Veil is a very effective combo to push elemental damage.
If you bring a Rogue, then you might as well bring a Samurai for Act Casual to passively inflate their damage.
Then lastly you bring a Healer/Princess depending on how safe you want your team to be.

Don't feel like doing all of this setup and you want a generically effective team? Knight, Samurai, Mage + Healer/Princess can effortlessly clear all the content since you get encounter reduction, bloom reduction, aoe coverage and healing.

>>568972594
Princess' Angelica Cage is so good for Samurai and Fighter for the Sealing potential, let alone the Mage help. I don't know what it is about the Knight, but I will always take other options over the usual Tank Healer DPS setup when I can, unless the tank is less standard.

Alright niggies, I'm gonna play that one Etrian HD mod. Played the very first version near release - liked it very much.

>>568983249
>IIRC the summons were all monsters and foes from the old games
Yeah with the exception of the lion which debuted as an enemy in 4. Also what were the tiger and cow references to? I remember 1 having tigers but I don't remember them having an instant death thing.

>>568984539
2 had the Bison enemies and there's enough random palette swap tiger things that one of them probably fits.

surely the yggdrasil labyrinth can't be the only dungeon in the world

File: 1620106991265.jpg (216.6 KB)

>>569006402
It's not. Each game has a completely different labyrinth in vastly different locations.

Not really. That said, I wouldn't mind a a sort of optional side dungeon that is randomly generated, be it post-game or otherwise.

>>569006910
do each of the games take place in a different continuity a la final fantasy or something
or is it the same world and the roots of the labyrinth stretch that far and deep

>>569007108
It's one continuity but they don't really delve into details. Suffice it to say they're connected but each could exist as their own thing.

i really do wish dragon quest and pokemon had combat mechanics more like EO's

>>569007836
I wouldn't want that at all, game series are different and unique for their own playstyles, and I'd get tired if it were all the same. You could take some things, but trust me: after 40 years you start to cherish how different everything is.

I still love Heavenly Keep and Lucent Hollows, they're only here because 2 and 5 have such strong line-ups of visually appealing and engagingly-designed dungeons. Forgotten Capital has a great theme but you only get a single floor to enjoy it because most of the dungeon is going through new areas of the older dungeons. Emerald Grove is nice but also very basic compared to the rest of the game and its tedium is a less interesting trick than what the rest of the game has up its sleeve.

As for Untold I feel the worst is Primitive Jungle though most of the strata are missing some flavor compared to their OG counterparts. Every dungeon in 2U is equally lame and homogenized which is tragic but I do like what it did with Heavenly Keep visually. Most of Nexus' dungeons are in the conversation here but I'll go with Yggdrasil Labyrinth because it's another Shrine. Like the layout and gimmicks are nice but all that build up for a fifth Shrine felt like a kick in the dick.

What did Sandy Barrens do to you? It's like a top 3 stratum in each game it shows up in for me.

Sandy Barrens has an awesome bgm track, probably my favorite in 1.

What Etrian has the best story? I think 3 is pretty cool. Even with the minimal story, they added a lot of feels and flair.

>>569119465
3 or 4

>>568575360
I wish i had an imagination and any ability to roleplay cause i know thats what the devs encourage but i never do that stuff when i play one of these games, plus i just get so into the gameplay itself that i always completely forget even when i want to try lol. Do you guys actually do all of that?

>>569125170
imagining some momenta based on what's happening in game and what you made your party look like is what most people do I think rather than actively coming up with very specific scenarios

>>569119465
1, 3, or 4. 3's only really feels cohesive if you do all three routes though.

Etrian Maker when?

>>569148934
I want this so bad

>>569108291
Very fair. Easier than Etrian Odyssey, but has a lot going for it. Battles are deliberate. You can't just 'mash A'. Party is 3. Can't remember how many classes. 8-12ish probably, skill tree, equipment (obviously), etc
It's a short and sweet game, which is a plus for me 20-25 hours. But there are challenge bosses/secret bosses and I put another 8-10 hours in trying to 100% it.
If any of this sounds neat, it has a demo on Switch, so feel free to give a go.
I think It goes on sale every now and then, but I found the price to be fair.

Then you need to go back and do another run with her so you can truly experience 4.

>>569168375
They have good passives and good base stats (other than the obvious tp weakness) so the main thing to do is make their active skills worth using. The only really strong skills they have are very gimmicky. Alternatively lean into passives and really make them focus on the subclass as their main gimmick. Another thing that would be nice is to give them a unique equipment type like beasts or troubadours have that give them more max tp, so you can help their tp stay in line with other characters at the cost of an equipment slot.

>>569225097
>>569228695
I only ever played the demo for IV but part of me stops myself from playing it, since the build I want to do more than any else is all Dancer. Somebody told me that just having one Dancer isn't worth it compared to all the other classes in the game, is that true? How come?

>>569233047
Who the hell told you that? One Dancer is perfectly fine by herself and if you want to meme it up with a Beat Dance brigade then by all means.

>7th Dragon Mages have 4 offensive skill trees
>Nothing resists Mana and its not that much weaker than the other three on neutral targets
>You also need to raise it to level 5 to get access to Concentrate anyway
>Plus, their best EX move is gated behind this tree
The only reason why I can think you'd ever want to bother with the other elements is if you feel like memeing it up with Veils or are willing to play trials and error with weaknesses (hint its almost never Fire)

>>569233047
Whoever told you that is completely retarded and can safely be ignored, I can assure you that much.

>>569233047
I guess if you wanted to use every single buff at the same time there's the issue of 3 buff slots, but that's basically a non-issue.

We're going to get Next Stage soon; I feel it in my bones.

We're reaching dangerous levels of bottomless with this Hexer.

File: 220.jpg (506.8 KB)

>>569234948
Yeah, mana is the way to go. I guess you can get the elemental EX moves far earlier than the mana one and picking up at least one veil isn't a bad idea though. It's hard going for weakness exploitation in the game since you don't know what the weaknesses are.

>>569275662
Soon we'll be going from bottoms to Votoms

>>569278174
I'm more of a Dougram guy.

>>569282649
Still not using a Gunner.

>>569277371
IIRC the weakness modifier is sizable but the problem is...
Barely anything worth talking about are weak to fire but many things resist it.
Lightning is basically a slightly stronger mana in most instances outside of ocean/mechanical enemies. I think a quite a few dragons are weak to lightning?
Ice has the highest number of major enemies weak to it.
So you could do Ice/Lightning + Concentrate if you want, but if I'm running a dual element mage and I have to pick up Concentrate anyway, then why not just run Ice or Lightning + Mana?

Ice beats the early game, flame eater and more and anything that resists ice eats a mana bullet or end of the world for their troubles.
Maybe if there was an actual useful resource for weaknesses.

So yeah, its just two of Ice/Lightning/Mana, Concentrate and Int Up. If you take Mana get the EX otherwise ignore it cause the other ex skills almost always suck due to a lack of aoe fights where you'd want to use them.

>>569286567
I love that Samurai gets some elemental magic in, just to join on the fun

>>569286567
Yeah, I forgot about that but the elemental EXs aren't really great since most threatening fights are single target bosses anyways. You do sometimes encounter multiple small dragons though due to their ability to enter ongoing battles so they can occasionally be useful there. The mana EX is good for skill seal at least. The game would benefit greatly from an in-game bestiary, an item that reveals weaknesses, and a beep noise when hitting weakness.

>>569291628
Its funny how stacked Iai is.
>Better Downthrust
>Skill Seal
>Ice Damage
I'm memeing with Unarmed this run tho.
>>569291789
Yeah that's one thing the 2020 games do way better than the original.

>>569293078
I still wish there were an accessory or something that could start the battle with the stance. So many times, I get blindsided and have to rely on Nukikage

>>569293187
I find it easiest to do
1 Pow, 1 Int, 5 Evil Eye, 1 Nukikage and then do the real build. 2020 had an auto Iai accessory.

>>569293078
I used an Iai sam on my first run and I'm now using a zanbato sam. Zanbato seems stronger overall since the stance gives a damage boost but I do miss skill seal. Knock Flat has been nice with sleep though. Rumble is nice to end fights with as well. I like to try and put them to sleep towards then end and then wake them up with an Ex boosted Rumble for huge damage.

Speaking of the obligatory weeb class: what should Next Stage's samurai class do that makes them different from the others?

>>569295414
I did the same, but now I'm at like level 47 and wonder where to even put my points in. I feel like going for other styles other than Iai would be a bit of a waste for my party, tempted to just dump them into the passives and get the self heal to make the Princess relax a bit. Princess I've got MN song at 10, Atk and Def songs at 5. After I max out the Sleep song, I wonder if I should max both buff songs or finally start getting her whip skills up so she can react with my Bow Rogue

>>569297329
Get Rentan and Pain React. It can let them heal a hit right after taking it and also feed your Princess more turns with their React skill.

>>569297329
Pow Bonus Max
Int Bonus 1
Evil Eye Max
Katana Mastery 1 or Max
Nukikage 1
Zanbato/Iai/Unarmed Max
Offensive Move Max
Elemental Move Max

Optional
Spd Boost 5
Pain React 1
Rentan
Asura for unarmed

That should be enough for 74 points or at least keep your sam occupied.
Princess is too complicated to pick a dedicated build.

Samurai's unarmed counters are a real thing (they actually dont suck damage wise) but screw figuring out which one of slash/pierce/bash is the right type for the boss.

I really don't like this stratum; I hope things pick up going forward.

>>569310515
Most people seem to agree it's 3's low point but everything after it more than makes up for it I feel.

>>569310515
When I first played it I remember having to respec for both the mid boss fight and to also put way more points into Monarch March just to make it less painful to get around.
And the only saving grace was petrifying the mother dragons for fun. What a shit stratum.
