Play Tokyo Mirage Sessions. You only have3
Dungeon crawler thread?
>>344918876
this game is honestly so shit but i feel like i have to beat it after dropping 30 bucks on it
>>344918945
Didn't pick it up because I have too much shit to beat before moving onto new games.
>>344918565
>if we don't win this fight, the world will end!
>let's only take 3-6 members of the team of super soldiers we have
I know it's an ancient trope, but it still bugs me every time.
>>344918876
If you haven't yet PLAY LEGEND OF GRIMROCK 1 and 2
RPG party size should be 4-5, maximum of 6 if the game is designed to accomodate it
Not video games.

FF6 solved this, you had to split your part members into 3 groups for the final dungeon, then the final boss had 3 parts, each part you used a different team
>>344918565
I'm replaying FFX on PS4 after all these years since I never beat it when I was young and stupid.
The ability to swap in battle works really well with the amount of party members you get.
Really gives you the option for multiple strategies.
I actually realized how good Kimahri is.
Tidus being the main character does almost feel useless since he doesn't have a real role like the others.
>>344920120
they did something similar in suikoden 2, where you had 3 parties of 6 trying to kill one dude
if you only trained one main team of 6 at that point you were pretty boned
i think 5 also had it during the final part of the game

Is that Christian Bale?

>God tier
5 or 6 - Allows maximum versatility without getting overwhelmed.
>Ok tier
7+ - Gettin' a little big here. Becomes a pain to manage such a large posse.
>Mid tier
4 - Limiting, but allows some flexibility. Unless the game requires a lockpick and trap disarm drone, then you know who number 4 is going to be.
>Shit tier
3 - Horrible. These games are always boring because you always need the 3 core roles.

Developer actively tries to punish you for idling with faction they disagree with

What the fuck is a TRPG? Tranny Role Playing Game?
>>344921705
Tactical you inbred cumguzzling faggot.
>>344921054
5 or 6 is terrible specifically because of the versatility. You shouldn't be able to cover all your bases.
>>344921054
4 Works out pretty well with the Tales games, you notice in Star Ocean 5 it became a clusterfuck with so many characters.
>>344921773
So a regular turn based RPG?
>>344921590
>Hmm, we don't want tip our hats in saying any one side is the "right choice"
>I know, lets make all factions totally irredeemable and unappealing
>>344921826
2 dps of different flavors, tank, cleric, wizard, archer (or 2nd wizard)
games with fewer party members usually just consolidate the roles so it ends up covering the same amount of bases anyway
I AM A WII U AND YOU PUT AMIIBOS ON MEE
>>344922131
Grid based combat, you retard. Usually called SRPG. Final Fantasy Tactics, Fire Emblem, Disgaea etc.
>>344918565
suikoden 2 sucked for this.
the worst part was that every pair only has a single dual skill.
>>344922131
No. Have you ever heard of Final Fantasy Tictacs? If not, why are you such an underage faggot and why do you refuse to play one of the best TRPGs out there? A normal turn-based RPG is something like Dragon Quest, a TRPG is grid-based with unit movement.
>>344922313
And what sets this genre apart from games like Pool of Radiance, Fallout, and Ultima?
>>344919151
>>344922534
>fallout is not grid based

what does that have to do with the thread?

>Magic class
>Can only wear light armor and use wands/staffs
>>344921054
I like 7+ myself, especially if every character is unique and has a specific use.
Tried it on a game where you would recruit characters and it is... not good.
>>344922595
is there a point to grid based srpgs anymore?
>>344918565

I didn't say they were different, I was clearing up your confusion about Tranny Role Playing Games.
>>344922754
That's because magic would be even more OP than it already is if you could wear the most powerful defensive gear.
>>344921054
>These games are always boring because you always need the 3 core roles.
>need
you don't even need a healer.
>>344922876
>they all gain exp even if theyre not in your party so you can actually swap characters out when you need to without excessive grinding
too bad no game ever does this
>>344922876
>108 potential party members

21ST CENTURY SCHIZOID MAAAAN.
>>344923342
rogue galaxy for the ps2 does it
>>344921054
the issue with anything over 4 is that you typically don't have anything that's actually demanding. you fight a rabbit turd monster and just completely wreck it with 6+ party members.
also, anything over that amount and it might as well just be a srpg. there's not enough balance.
>>344923591
go play wizardry
>>344922995
But if everyone is OP then no one is.
