Did you ever use [Run Away] in a JRPG?
>>
I do it when I'd have to use too much mana or if the fight is too dangerous
Otherwise I try not to
>>
>Run away
>Shows the battle result screen
For what purpose?
>>
>>338124268
Run away from jrpgs.
>>
>>338124268
Didn't know about repels in Pokemon when I was a kid so I ran almost all of the time.

Only if I'm under-leveled for the area so I don't die instantly, and over-leveled so I don't waste my time with weaker enemies.
>>
>>338124510

If there were multiple enemies and you killed some of them but then ran away you still might get gold/items. All of which depends on the JRPG of course
>>
Usually when I revisit older areas and the battles aren't worth the time
>>
I always like to stay under leveled in rpgs, so I use it constantly until I can buy smoke bombs or its equivalent.
>>
mostly in boss fights in case it's actually a scripted fight
>>
Sometimes if I'm fucked for some reason (party members died or really low HP and not confident I can salvage it, enemy is too strong) 90% of the time it just backfires and I fail to run away and get flattened though and I shut off the game in a rage.

Also when I was a kid I always ran from optional battles simply due to being too impatient to deal with that shit and would power through the boss battles through sheer persistence or else run into a wall at some point and give up.
>>
>>338124268
in most games, all random encounters in the final dungeon. no need for exp once you're that close to the end
>>
Never, those shits brought themselves to fight my party.
>>
>>338124268
Yes if the game throws at me random encounters too much.
>>
If the game records every time I run away, no, it feels like a mark of shame to me. I'm autistic enough to undo 4 hours of gameplay if I accidentally run away and the game keeps records of it.
>>
>>338124268
Only in oldschool RPGs where it's actually possible for random encounters to fuck you up. I'll try to run and pray it works only if I'm in a real bad situation with dead party members. Probably no real reason to ever run in any RPG released after 1993.
>>
>>338124268
I do if I get fucked up in the dungeon and forgot my warp wire
>>
Is that some Nagatoro? Has there been an update? I assumed that horrible 3rd chapter killed it. They fucked up by showing Senpei instead of continuing to imply that it was you.

But they're not really the same genre as your run-of-the-mill teen drama visual novel JRPG anyway

No because when i was younger I thought that the monsters would be smug as shit if the hero ran away. So 9/10 times I would fight. That still translates today when I should run but I stay and fight and see what happens. Only games with fights that rely on the use of escape will see me run.

Yes, on low level/lv1 playthroughs

If I don't want to over-level, yes.

It seems that the sub cucks who get off to these mistook them to be that the PoV character was actually in control. It seems the writer rectified that little mishap.

Subs always like to think they control shit from the bottom. They always think in the back of their mind, that they're secretly in control. That's why the best of these types of stories completely crushes that notion. Give a sub even an inkling that they can sway you, and they get the whole situation twisted in their head. You can't give them anything.
>>
Sure, I fucking hate random encounters. I'll escape from all of them when I'm exploring and area and then grind afterwards.

Probably the reason I tend to drop JRPGs 1/3 through.

Oh sorry, I guess it doesn't make much sense without context. Basically, I've found myself in situations where I've talked to some subs. One guy I talked to was giving me the details for what makes a good cuck story. And , I'll save the details, but everything he said pretty much amounted to the sub feeling like they still had control of the relationship. Even if it's from the submissive position.

And then another sub I talked to, broke down the first two Nagatoro doujins specifically. He typed some heavy posts, so I'll save the details there too. But it amounted to pretty much the same thing. The way he sees it, the PoV character in the doujin is actually in control, even though he's in the submissive position.

It's some really twisted logic. I kind of get what he's saying in a way. I suppose it could be read that way.

The thing about subs though... They're almost always weaselly little shitbags. And the way I see it, no one should cater to them. They're going to read the doujin and fap to it anyway, because they're little cuck faggots. So it's best to use every page to completely shit on them. Instead of trying to cater to their twisted understanding of who holds power in relationships.

I don't know what the fuck you are on about.
I am a dom and I enjoy nagatoro's first 2 chapters because it was cute watching her hide affection behind bantz, only to lose her composure.
The last 2 have just been her abusing senpai with no real resolution or apology.
>>
>>338126469
I still love it but yeah it was very disappointing to see the senpai wasn't a sweaty fat fuck as me.
>>
>>338130902
Well, I can see wanting something of an arc. But an apology? Nah. That's fucking lame. Apologizing is handing power to the other person. Unless she has some trick up her sleeve.

I always expected her hurting and punishing me. This way I can be sure there is something she likes in me. Even if it is just the ultimate betaness.
>>
>>338130638
I understand what you're saying as in I know the words but god damn everything in this post in otherworldly as someone who's not into this sub/dom shit.

Including your opinion and theirs.
>>
>>338131915
I'm not even into the dom/sub thing! That's the crazy part! I just had a few chance run-ins with some very open subs.

I'm more into the cuck stuff. But only in fiction. I can't imagine it in real life. And that's sort of cousin to the dom/sub thing. Because the guys who get cucked see it that way. They're in a submissive role.
And I only ran into Nagatoro material thanks to /v/ shitposting it some time ago. I normally don't read this kind of stuff, but it was pretty fascinating.
>>
>>338130638
I can't imagine this. As a sub I go out of my way sometimes so that I know I'm not in control. Sometimes I'll get myself so drunk that I'm not in control of myself and others times I'll go under hypnosis. The idea that some subs don't do this is beyond me.
>>
>>338132235
Isn't cuck stuff the same thing just with a specific scenario?

I assume you like cuck shit over regular stuff because it puts the guy who steals the girl in a position of power and the other guy(and often the girl) in a submissive position. It seems like the same exact thing as dom/sub.
>>
in games where all it takes is pressing L1 + R1, sure, makes my life easier when I'm trying to move on with the story
>>
>>338132783
It does have to do with power disparity for me. But it's strange the way I think about it. Likely unconventional, but basically, for me there's nothing I like better than seeing a girl really enjoy herself. And the idea that her partner is really making her enjoy herself is a big element to that.
So, the idea is building a disparity between the cuck and the bull. Because the better the bull appears in comparison to the cuck, the more I imagine he's pleasing the woman.
So, for me, it's not so much that the sub is getting punished and the bull is dominating him. In fact, I hate those cuck scenarios where the cuck is made to get involved. Because that's just the cuck weaseling his way into controlling the scenario. The point is supposed to be that the bull is SO much better at pleasing this woman, he can not only make her cheat on her husband/boyfriend. But for the time she's with him, she completely forgets her boyfriend/husband. I really don't care about the cucks feelings, beyond the fact that he gets shown-up.
>>
>>338133281
That's...really interesting, though wouldn't a scenario where the cuck is involved but is completely impotent and the girl instantly chooses the other guy ideal?

I'm someone who actively avoids NTR in doujins because the scenario in the ones I've read were unappealing due to how it was written. Though my favorite doujins are the ones where the girl's fucked silly so what you're saying makes sense.
