The "bad" ending is the canon one, since its the same as the book's ending.
>>343415548
I actually read the book, surprised how accurate the game was to it. Now it's going full circle with the final book in the series being based off of last light.

Yeah, the game was a great adaptation of the book (they do skip one or two slower chapters from the book in the game, although its understandable).
I had a really good time with the game, especially since i got it as a gift shortly after i finished reading the book. it was really fun to compare the developers designs to how i imagined things while reading.
>Now it's going full circle with the final book in the series being based off of last light.
So he already started writing the book? Neato, last time i heard about the author he was talking about making a book based on last light.
I still need to play LL and read metro 2034 (although i remember hearing that it was sort of a letdown when compared to 2033).

Then it would only be usable on the final boss and whats the point in an Uber strong weapon if you can only use it once.
Star Contol 2 was the best at this.
If you take too long, they start killing off the other races, one by one.

I wouldn't call people casuals for wanting infinite time but it definitely does cheapen the challenge. Part of the fun for me in 1 and 2 was figuring out what to do when and what to save for later.

The worst/best thing about that is that you can only unlock Legion's loyalty mission AFTER your crew gets kidnapped so you basically have to decide whether you want to save the girl yeoman or whatever she was, or tell the entire Geth fleet that the Reapers are not gods and get them to peace out + become besties with Legion, voiced by the baller that is D.C. Douglas.
It's annoying but it's also one of the few instances I can think of where doing one major quest that could be considered main or essential, fucks up the main story because you did it and "wasted time".

Same for me with Valkyrie Profile. Considering the time limit I couldn't stand to play it without a guide to make the most efficient use of the limited days without missing anything. I played about 6 hours and quit. Using the guide the game was not fun because I was just following a list of instructions. Without the guide I'd just get frustrated because I know I'd be missing events and characters left and right. Fuck that game. The battles are fun but the time limits just killed it for me. It's like having an axe over your head the whole time.

If you can read between the lines with Soul Nomad, there's nothing good about the "good guys."
Heck, the fact that Drazil didn't take your soulthe first time you diedindicates that he wasn't trying to siphon off Haphnes's world until AFTER Layna/Virtuous decided to declare war on his entire world.

That's Metroid 3. I hated the 3 hour limit, it killed any replay value in that cleared save file to expore and revisit areas.
This concept is absolute bullshit for exploration-driven games. Absolute bullshit.

Yeah, you have 90 days from the start of the game to beat it before you get your first bad ending. Some of the bad endings are canon tho so it doesn't matter.
>>343440131
no :^)
did i hurt your feelings? are you questioning your sexuality now?
>>343423260
Yes. If you run out of time, you can risk the vault running out of water or the inhabitants being abducted and turned into mutants.

it's called speedruns grandpa, it's good for games to support and encourage skill.

Fuck atlus and their idea of how jrpgs should work. The only reason it was playable was due to random dungeon floor layouts & mob encounters, instead of atlus's usual Teleport Mazes Galore & random encounters (50% being surprise encounters) every 6 steps.

Fucking 999. I was on my way to the True End first time through, so the story just fucking ended because I didn't do all the other stuff.

its more not babying her to not get the bad ending.

Did they change where you can replay levels without using cat energy? I might have another go with it.

Never played minerva's den and the DLC is impossible to buy thanks to the removal of the GFWL store

Devil Survivor 1 does something like that but worse. Have to fight a normal map. then every boss you fought so far shows up at the same time. Then the final boss shows up
