What games do you enjoy min/maxing your stats in?
>>
>>343850054
why is it called min/maxing?

isnt the point to max everything?
>>
Any game I can raise my speed in I invest every single point into it until it is completely full.
>>
>>343852605
no, you max a few specific stats and keep everything else at the absolute minimum
>>
>>343852605
Minimize risks/weaknesses maximize strengths
>>
>>343852605
If it's a game where you can't just go max everything like you're braindead and actually have limited points, you want to maximize the stats you're actually going to use and minimize the stats you don't need.

I always max stats in propane handling, lawnmowing, kicking ass, and grilling in Hank of The Hill Online.

Minimize stats in being a jackass and my relationship with my dad

Final Fantasy X. Re-writing the Sphere Grid is absurd but fun. I spent about 75 hours doing it inthe arena where you capture and re-fight monsters, and grinding the items to alter the grid. The secret Weapon boss actually needs it, that was a tedious fight. Yuna ends up being the strongest with how Summons scale to match her stats and essentially giving her a dozen lives.

I wanna do a max stache run of M&L

wtf does stache even do?

crits

>>343854235
Crits and shop discounts. Luigi can turn into a powerhouse if you go Power + Stache, since he naturally has more Stache to begin with and occasionally gains some per level.

>>343850054
How do you min/max in paper mario?
>>
>>343854235
>>343854502

I always assumed the smartest thing to do in M&L was to make Luigi a defensive tan and Mario a hard hitter.
>>
>>343854849
Or just never get hit because you can dodge every move in that game. DEF is worthless if you know how to dodge
>>
>>343854569

1. Keep Mario's health at 10.
2. Put all bonuses into badge points.
3. Equip Danger badges to have high damage output when at 5 HP or less

Enjoy raping everything to death
>>
>>343855153
Or go to that stat person and lower his max health to 5 and stay in danger forever
>>
>>343855153
it's 5, casual
>>
>>343855310
You can do that but not until 60% through the game.

Putting dedicated points into defense in a game where you can dodge everything if you're good is wasteful. Natural health/defense gains per level are good enough, and you should be supplementing your offense to give enemies less chances to attack.
>>
>>343853418
is that game actually good

Enjoy? Devil Survivor games
Have to do it to succeed in shit like Pokemon though. I just use whatever I have without training it so I end up trying to discern if the opponent can kill the shedinja I like to use instead
>>
>>343852605
As far as I know it's a holdover from D&D and other D20 tabletop systems, where you can only allocate a certain number of stat points. So you maximise the important stats (Strength for fighters, Int for wizards, etc) and put the absolute minimum required in the unimportant stats. It's been adapted to mean making the strongest character technically possible in any given game or system.
It's powergaming.

You can also do Danger runs in 64, but it's a defense game compared to TTYD's offensive powerhouse.

Which Paper Mario had the best girls?
>>
>>343852817
wrong

>>343852959
correct
>>
>>343855962
We were having a good thread.
>>
>>343855962
I like Vivian the best (boy or girl, don't care) but I'd say 64 overall. Flurrie is terrible and Goombella is okay, but the 64 girls are all good.
>>
>>343855962
Ms Mowz a cute
>>
>>343856597
64 didn't go far enough with the characterization. Except maybe Lady Bow.
