What are your opinions on this series?
I own all of them, and haven't finished one.

>>321243614
Really good series. Fanbase full of retards who believe EO started first person dungeon crawling.
>>321244993
I really only ever see this happen in any of the vita crawlers thread, just stupid false flagging to try to start up a thread
>>321243614
Love everything about it. Also V when?
>>321243614
breddy gudWhen's EOV?
Fucking fantastic.
Though I still need to play 2 and 3 because they never released in yurop
>>321243614
9/10
I was looking forward to picking this up, and when I went to do it I saw that this game went and got expensive on me.
Fuck everything.
I want to play Untold 1. Should I go for the story mode or classic?
>>321247773
Avoid Story Mode like the plague.
>>321247489
Just get a digital copy. It goes on sale every other month.
>>321247773
If you don't want to bother with Story Mode buy a used one so the Highlander Class and Gunner Class is unlocked.

Hell even an Ulitma Underworld style spin off would be goat.
>>321248663

But why
>>321248663
4 > 3 > 2 > 1
Started with 1 and haven't played the Untold games.
>>321248129
Why do people say this?
I really liked story mode. And played EO2 before it
>>321248129
Why? Is it really that bad?
I have legend of titan in my 3ds buy I can't find the motivation to start it
>>321248321
UUUUGH
>>321243614
EOIV>U2>U1>MD
I haven't played 3, fuck me, I still liked 4 the most when I played it because of the story, the last dungeon and the music in general, U2 is fucking good but it lacked....something, I guess I liked the subclasses a lot more than grimoires.
U1 is good too but the grimoire system in that one is SHIT, but the last battle is the best of the games I've played, dat music.
MD was fun at first but it became ridiculous, the FOE or whatever was bothersome as shit, dungeons were too fucking long, AI was stupid and somehow the battles took longer in real time than in the actual EO games, overall, I don't reccomend it unless you TRULY love EO and MD, hell, the story wasn't good either and the bosses were a fucking joke, broken classes too.
>>321244993
And also fullblown waifu faggetory on the general. Literally they have nothing or any kind of relevance to talk about aside from "whos ur fav waifu? Who would you merry? X girl best girl" over and over and fucking over again. I demand a Dungeon cralwer general
>>321249923
There was a dungeon crawler general... for a few days, at least. I miss it.
>>321249923
That's not true at all. Although if you want a true display of autism, you should see it right now
>>321250334
Fucking EO shitters too devoted to shitsplat on D.C generals
>>321243614
I never knew how much fun it is to get my ass reamed before I played this. Also:
F O E
F O E
F O E
Played all on release.
1 and 2 are great, 3 if fucking incredible and 4 sucks. Haven't played untold.
3 is so much better than the others that it's not even funny. And not because they suck, but just because it's amazing. Beat it 3 times and 100%'d it.
>>321249923
EO fans killed the dungeon crawler general because they didn't allow anyone else to talk about any dungeon crawlers besides EO
>>321248663
>4 that low
Why? I really liked it.
>>321248663
3>u2>4=u1>2>1
>>321250754
Man, is like time doesn't flow in there. Everything is still the same exact shit. Nothing worth mentioning anymore.
>>321250968
The lack of interest in the genre killed /dcg/. It wasn't just free of shitposting, it was free of posting.
>>321250754
I stopped going to eog a month after EOU2 came out, it was bad enough even back then. They really should just let the threads die until we finally get some new info about EOV. Fuck, even EOU3 would be welcome at this point.
>>321243614

>>321250894
EVEN ON /v/
F O E
>>321251145
switch u1 and 1, then you will have the correct list
How is EO2: Untold? I never played the first EOU but I might try the second one out.
Do you miss out on anything if you don't do the Story Mode? I'd kind of rather just play Classic Mode right away because I never played the original EO2, but I remember there were things you could unlock in Story Mode for Classic Mode in the previous EOU so I thought I'd check.
>>321251572
aside from lacking the immunize glitch, u1 is superior in every way
>>321251395
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7x3r9jhj2HQ
>>321251797
they learned from their mistakes and you can get story stuff in classic
>>321251927
Beautiful. I'm definitely going to get it then.
>>321243614
They need to make a new one already, and stop with this remake crap.
>>321251990
story mode is good too, better than u1
>>321252191
V was announced really early this year without any details, even after TGS.
They won't even confirm if it's on the 3DS.
>>321243614
Really fun although I don't have any desire to play the remakes. I hope they keep V more true to the original series.
I beat each game on the hardest difficulty and then completely drop it end-game
I have only played the Untold games, and only the Story mode. im not autistic enough to make my own characters, And I sure as hell dont have the time to play regular mode with all my backlog
>>321243614
I like it. EO is an experience I'll never forget. I love the idea of just taking your party members out and just killing monsters. It gave me an opportunity to give some story and personality to my characters.
The minimal story kind of helps since you can weave your party's narrative into the larger story pretty seamlessly without losing the immersion.
Grimoires (in Untold 2) were cool. It gave it another depth to customization outside of skill points. Of course, Sub-Classing was pretty cool too since it gave a character almost a whole new set of toys to play with.
Also, War Magus a cute.
>>321243614
Been meaning to play the DS versions but haven't had the time or money to really get em,I hear their practically Wizardry clones right down to random death by falling down pit-traps?
>>321253931
There aren't death traps while you're dungeon crawling. There are random encounters that can instantly fuck you over in one turn, though.
>>321251395

STOP WHAT YOU'RE DOING AND DO AS THEY DO!

I honestly like how serious this gets when you reach the fourth land. Made the adventure feel all that much more important.
>>321250968
No one talks about Dungeon Crawlers other than EO because those threads were originally EO generals, its the exact same faggots shitposting over and over for the better part of 2 years. All long lived generals just end up turning into waifu faggotry or ERP eventually.

Yuzo Koshiro
>>321253931
Nothing's really random, but they'll fuck you up. Sometimes you'll find an event and if you pick the wrong choice you get ambushed by a shitload of monsters or something. One of the biggest gimmicks in the series is huge boss monsters that wander the map and are generally too powerful for you to defeat without leveling or a ton of preparation. They move through the map during combat as well, so they can make things pretty intense.
yuzo koshiro should compose for a pokemon game

>how to ruin a good song: the song
>>321250968
Those threads started as EO generals, dawg. What other dungeon crawlers are there these days even? Grimrock, I guess?
let's talk about class of heroes
>>321254463
Moero Chronicle
>>321243614
It's super interesting
>>321254550
This is a japanese dwarf.
Just bought 4 because it is only 10 dollars on the eshop. I really enjoy it so far, but I die so fucking much and haven't learned to save all the time yet, so I feel like a retard. never played any of the other games, so any beginner tips?
>>321254023
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U_0TeykT5NA
When the second phase started, I actually kind of get scared and the music just cemented the fact that I was fighting a god.
>>321254550
When is the third game coming out? I know gaijinworks is localizing it, but I haven't been following what's going on at all. I like EO a lot more, but I'm still looking forward to it.
>>321254904
grind a lil bit, and make use of scavenge points
>>321254904
The game raises the enemies stats to cruel and unbeatable levels unless your entire party are cute flat girls like this one here: >>321254770
>>321254956
Crap. I meant >>321254118
>>321254550
You mean the games that we only had 2/3 over in the states ;_;
Still have the first one on my UMD
>>321255049
well my party is already cute girls so I should be good unless you mean I need dancers
>>321254904
Just play the game. If you're having too much trouble check out your party composition. Make sure you have some synergy between members, make sure you're not going to overboard on support that you can't deal enough damage, etc. This early in the game you probably don't have enough skills for any of that stuff to make much of a difference, though.
>>321254904
Well not that it matters too much when it's early, but what's your team?
>>321254815
Felpurs were kind of cool
>>321255049
I'm not sure how you survive the post game dungeon in IV without a dancer to boogie the petrification off your party. Though I'm sure it's possible.
>>321254463
Dungeon Travelers 2 is fucking great
>>321255228
That's a Rawulf, Felpur is the Thundercats race.
>>321255385
Only if you're a cuck who likes his games censored.
>>321255269
I rarely got ambushed by those plants and the one time I did, I think only two member got petrified and I was able to destroy those fuckers.
I guess the RNGods favored me that day.
>>321255269
Best party is always four lolis and a male dancer, dawg.
i've only played the first one. what am i missing out on?
>>321254904
Stay very close to the beginning of the first dungeon until you get a couple levels and buy a full set of starter equipment for everyone. Remember to spend your skill points (you start with 3). Draw your map so you know how to dodge FOEs. Always keep an Ariadne Thread on you as soon as they become available. Save every time you go to town.
>>321255660
Improved UI, better dungeons, new designs, and new gimmicks in 3 and 4 with side dungeon type things, with 3 having Sea Quests and 4 having small caves peppered throughout the landscape. But you can always expect to get buttfucked.
>>321255269
You use a dancer (or dancer sub) to Quick Step either a Runemaster to burn down all the Muskoids, or an Arcanist to Hood Circle them.
>>321255269
Nightseeker, auto-throw, sleep throw. With the Nightseeker's insane speed, you won't get ambushed and you'll have a pretty decent dodge rate.
I liked u1.
Mint-haired mage is cute! Cute!
>>321243614
3>>>2>1>>>Cancer>Untold's Story Modes
I started with the original game and nearly ripped my hair out, but ended up beating it and reaching the bonus boss.
2 takes what made 1 beatable and removes it, and replaces it with revenge hexers. Still a fun game.
3 is by far and away the high point for the series, featuring the best dungeons, the best music and the most even difficulty curve. Fuck, even the story ain't terrible.
4's the worst of the non-remakes, simply because of how easy it feels, for lack of a better word. The only time I felt there was a bit of a challenge was the bonus stratum, and even then the only issues I had were with Petaloids, and they're par for the course for "Fuck You" in an EO game.
I despise EO1U with a passion, simply for adding a shit story mode that spoils the biggest twist in the game in the opening minutes, and making the game even easier than 4 with Grimoire abuse.
I'm going to be playing EO2U soon, so I can't give a rating.
I don't think there's ever been a better "first dungeon" theme in any RPG.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQcKlQ6iAew
>>321255660
Every game got better and better, basically. Still the same general formula, still hard, still fun, but with side dungeons, more detailed skill trees, weapon customization, new classes, overworlds, etc.
>>321256885
yes there is
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vRIuwKbvxwg
>>321243614
Just started playing one of them and the "select an answer" bullshit is pissing me off. I don't need 3 ways to say the same shit.
I started 3 and it was good but I got sad when I realized that classes don't advance to master classes like in FF Tactics.
>>321256885
All the first stratums are amazing. I particularly like the EOI's too
>>321243614
One of my favourite vidya series.
>tfw playing EO all comfy under the covers at 2 AM
>wearing headphones to enjoy that 10/10 OST
Fucking amazing, I tell you. I'm in the middle of EOUII right now.
>>321257424
I'm really bothered by how the music dips whenever the characters speak
I'm not feeling the ost in EOU2. I love the music in eo4 and it's what kept me playing but eou2 is horrible
Olympia did nothing wrong.

Yggdroid is my favorite class, because I love robots.
I'm really looking forward to Untold 3, or at least hoping EOV has a robot class.
>>321256885
This was pretty good
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=foE9vlNvZSs&index=17&list=PLrBE-lUUdKuHil62aEfxYCNunpJE6GJVN
I want EOV to have a branching class system.
>>321254118
This is probably my favorite battle theme of any RPG I've played.
Also IV is the best Etrian Odyssey.
Didn't get UT2 because of money and time reasons, but holy shit I'm hype for UT3. 3 is already the best of the series, but improving it further will create the perfect EO.
>>321259836
What if they removed the second class system in favor of the grimoire system?
>>321259963
>>321259963
They just have to replace it with IV subclass system and it will be perfect.
>>321254957
Placeholder date is March 2016.
They'd be great if I could cheatengine the shitty grindy combat.

Or use Immunize/Revenge/Warrior's Might, that works too.

Well, they're called Felpiers and... I kid you not, I'm actually being 100% serious here... DWARVES in CoH.
EO UNTOLD 3 WHEN
>>321243614
Last good turn-based dungeon crawlers. One of the few RPGs where status affects actually matter. Overall, great series.
>>321262072
Before EO V.
>>321262293
jp voices when
these dubs are so fucking SHIT
>>321262673
honestly my only gripe with eou2's dub is that the old lady innkeeper sounds like a peppy teenager and arianna can get annoying sometimes
>>321262889
MY!
>>321243614
I like the first one. Haven't beaten it, though, and I'm not sure I ever will. It's kind of tedious and I'm having to go through and fix my builds, which is gonna take a fuckton of grinding. Apparently the boss of the second stratum is balls hard and I need to be extra prepared or I'm fucked.If that's not the case in just gonna take a crack at 'im and if I can beat him I'll use the third stratum to help me grind my levels back up after respeccing.
>>321254904
Learn to disable key enemies; raw damage output isn't everything in this series.

>>321253821
I ain't good at just making up shit for characters, so I'm not having that fun with it. I really like the low-poly graphics, though. It's gonna suck when the era of low-poly retro games hits and everyone and their mother is making them, because then I won't be able to enjoy them as much.

IV or Mystery Dungeon?
>>321265189
IV, no doubt.
>>321256885
it's not a dungeon theme but it work out for the better
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jONfsUCAARE
I'm playing through EO4 for the first time after finishing EOU1 (baby's first EO), reached land 3 and my only complain is dungeon design. They are just, i dunno, too easy. Pretty small. And they lack of cool gimmicks? Still having fun.Pic related best girl

>>321266775
I love that picture just for the small sprout at the end. It's that detail that makes it.
>>321266775
>>321266846
I said stop it!
>>321249923
Eh, that's to be expected. EO isn't a game that can just be discussed forever.
The game comes out. Dedicated fans spend a couple weeks figuring out the most OP party compostions, and then discussion stales until the next new game comes out with waifufags and other shitposters being the only thing keeping the generals going.
>>321267021
Blood for the dungeon. Gotta feed it or it won't get stronger.
>>321267047

>>321267047
I love minami star, he's the only artist making EO doujins.
>>321266775
>>321266846
>>321266143post more
>>321267434
It's too bad that that rumor that he's actually Himukai under a fake name isn't true.
>>321260628
Isn't the anthropomorphic race in Star Ocean called "fellpool"?
If the NX ends up being a hybrid console/handheld and it drops the dual screen is EO fucked?
>>321267508
Yeah, but his art is so similar its the same thing to me.
>>321243614
too grindy for my taste. but i do love fighting impossible battles against foes and it's cool experimenting with different combinations of classes. they could definitely expand on a the dungeon crawling aspect like how legend of grimrock does theirs.

Is Untold 3 even happening?
>>321274198
They've already said it isn't, EO5 is next unless they want to switch directors around to get EOU3 out, but that would be stupid
What are some other good dungeon crawlers? Can be on any platform really.
>>321275250
EO is the only worth a shit, all the vita drpgs are shitty fanservice games
>>321275250

Not counting really old ones like on DOS (who plays them anyway lol;_;):
Wizardry 8 (needs the mod that makes battle go faster though, it gets bogged down by tons of enemies).
Shining in the Darkness I heard was good on the Genesis.
The Dark Spire on the DS
The SMT series, IV maybe not so for various reasons, but the older entries are good.
Generation Xth is a Wizardry clone with modern touches on PC, first game was translated, though I think Operation Abyss on the Vita was its remake.

I've personally always felt that the OST has gotten progressively weaker as the series went on, I can't really even enjoy the new music in the Untold games, but every time I hear this I have to make an exception, definitely my favourite track in the series.
