I almost forgot: Resonance of Fate. Half the game is slice-of-life for a trio of mercenaries, and their secret backstories are super interesting. I think it's the first game I played where a character has a good reason to be angsty all the time. (Which I can spoil if you want)

Yeah anon, here's my go to COMFY game
>>
>>336191438
That's anti-comfy. You pretty much can't go more anti-comfy without going Nethack.
>>
Trails in the Sky. You go around the country with your bro looking for Dad and solving mysteries like Scooby Doo and the gang, all while consuming copious amounts of spaghetti and cake.
>>
>>336191438
You're a sick man.
>>
>>336191713
nethack is about 300,000 times comfier than wizardry, bro.

it's at least possible to beat nethack. and not even that hard after you learn it.

wizardry is not possible to beat a majority of the time

>>336192156

whats wrong with that game

>>336191126
>comfy

>>336192446
wizardry 4 is probably the hardest game ever made
>inb4 le dark souls
>>
>>336192446
Imagine doing any other Wizardry game with a solo character who only gets summons as a backup, and you have a time limit.
>>
>>336192712
it's not hard whatsoever, it's simply unfair. a game must give the player the tools to win or it is not a game at all

does somebody have the copypasta about wizardry? it's great.

It should be known by anyone who comes to /v/ that basically all the japanese RPG gods of enix, squaresoft etc were inspired by this game.

>>336191126
Is there a mod for Ultima IV for graphicsfags?

I don't need it to be hyper modern realism. I just would prefer there be... graphics.

Yeah, I regret being unable to play Dwarf Fortress, too.
>>
>>336193136
There's an NES port that looks like Dragon Quest. It's also missing a few things though.
>>
>>336193136
there's no reason to play ultima iv.

play ultima vii: serpent isle (not the original game, the expansion). they aren't close in terms of engine capabilities, depth, combat etc. ultima iv is very very antique

200% maximum over-comfort. Easy to get sort of dreamily lost in. Logged around 400 hours in it in total by now I'd wager.

Anything you need to know about it?

how is the 1st one?

>>336195249
It would be comfy if I wasn't constantly stressing over trying to get my combat multiplier even higher!

Also RIP Lionhead

I like it a lot but understand why someone else might not. It's clearly a really early ps2 game and has some jank going on. It's also more challenging and much darker, though, which I really appreciate. much lower budget and less clean looking but it's also more pure video game, if that makes sense.

DC2 is comfy and really well polished with voiced cutscenes, a distinct artstyle and a feel good ghibli movie kind of story, not to mention loaded with unbelievable amounts of content but it's also really easy. Some of its content is skippable too, and not worth the time imo. Fish racing, some of the medals and monster transformation come to mind, but the rest is tons of fun.

DC1 is dark, challenging and doesn't hold your hand as much, but this means you can sometimes get lost if things don't make sense or they don't give you enough information. The balance is also kind of off for some of the characters. Still really good but harder to recommend.

>>336196049
i just realized i own it but have never played it.. think i will give it a go. thanks.
>>
>>336196370
Good luck. It's kind of a slow start and doesn't always make sense but I still consider it a classic.

See if you can spot the similarities between it and Dark Souls. You might be surprised.
>>
What are some great entirely open-ended RPGs. I'd like something where I don't even need to enter into combat if I don't want to.
