it's a shit game with shit mechanics, a shitty grind-heavy gameplay system, deliberately exploitable bosses who are nigh impossible without said exploits.

It rewards a very specific playstyle, and as such, is not a very good dungeon crawler. It's okay, but not great.

It stands for dungeon role playing game

Used by fags that don't accept EO as a jrpg series nor a dungeon crawler

I still don't like the map.
Also, more dungeon dungeons and less outdoors activities would be preferred

I like them. The newer games added a bunch of quality of life shit that makes it easier to play but at the same time it made it easier to play.
>>
I want to play one but no idea where to start.

Some people say to start with the Untold games.
Others say 4 but then other people say to start with one of the first 3.

Then 5 is out at some point and I feel like maybe just waiting for that.

Which game is the best on 3DS? IV?

>>339197703
Now that I think about it, I don't even like exploration as the premise in the first place.

decent games when you don't draw the map, shit games when your forced to draw the map.
>>
I always wanted to get into the series, but I just found the battle system and map extremely boring. I just end up dropping Untold everytime I get up to the point of the story where you first encounter a foe.
>>
>>339197837
Start with Untold story where you have a premade party

Like it? Play Untold classic where you build your own party to fight enemies you're familiar with

Like it? Play EOIV blind
>>
>>339197837
>I want to play but no idea where to start
This. I know 4 and Untold have just had permanent price drops, which is nice. Also I don't think the plot continuity between games is major, so it's fine to start with 4, right?
Or should I play Untold and then emulate the others first?
>>
>>339197837
3 or 4 are not very hard and simple to get into

1 & 2 if you are into it and want a challenge

Untold if you are so bad at games you need a skill/money cheat system and nude DLC outfits.

Start with IV or Untold 2. Unlike the second one, Untold 1 Classic Mode is hindered by some content being locked behind Story Mode (which, by the way, you should avoid).
You can start with 3 too.
You can also go down all the way to the very first one if tediousness is your favourite flavour of challenge.

Don't bother ranking them.

>>339197012

i like the game, it gets the basic right, but it's so frustating and some choices are clearly made just to make the game more frustating for no more reason than giving the game a "hard just like ye olde drpg" reputation like...

why do you need a team for farming money? enemy drops shit for money so no you got to take farming money trip,
why are return wire a consumable items?, sure it makes for a great "this happened to me!" moment but there is no reason otherwise
why are some of the skill tree description so vague? immunize is a broken skill that make you invincible and it's explained so badly you would never know about it
heck why is the skill tree so terrible to begin with? picked the wrong skills? too bad, you are fucked, time to lose a bunch of level so that you can respec your character, should have took a trip too gamefaqs
why some bosses have attack so powerfull that they can literaly OHKO the whole party even when using classes specificaly designed to avoid getting OHKO?

honestly strange journey take all the good from the game and remove all the bad, but no the cancerous etrian odyssey fanbase will tell you that everything with the game is ok and you just need to git gud

>video games have to be perfect to have fans

EO2U improved skill tree descriptions a lot. Hopefully, by 5 or Untold 3 we will finally be given proper values for better reference without having to resort to datamining.

It's pretty damn fun. I remember pirating the first game on the DS ages ago, and I've loved the series since. EO1's 6th stratum puts hair on your chest, I'll tell you what. Couldn't even cheat if I wanted to since I didn't have internet at the time, and mapping it was hell.

Personally, I suggest either starting with EO3 or EO2 Untold (Classic). 3's my favorite game in the series, though by now it's missing a fair bit of the quality of life improvements that the next 3 games get. EO2 Untold is probably the most polished and balanced of the series, though starting with it means going backwards is more painful.

I just can't get into jrpgs where not only do I not see my party during battle, I don't even see pretty attack animations from either side. I'm also not a fan of games where your party are just personality-less bodies.

I couldn't stick with the game (IV I think) long enough to see if there was even a story here, or just a series of grindy dungeons.

Not for me, I guess.

The first two are the worst. I like dungeoning and exploring around in general, but I like to have an excuse to do it and other small stuff to distract me after I'm done with a big dungeon or exploration. Usually in RPG you get character insight or plot development as a reward for advancing, in EO you get nothing. Turns out that I really need that to keep me going, even if it's some weak stupid shit like FE chats.

And then again if I just want dungeoning, I have the dark spire right there which is IMO superior in every way.

You are missing the point of the EO series. A lot of that stuff you mentioned is part of the appeal except for the last part which is actually bullshit because resting is a thing allowing you to experiment builds as you please. Honestly I don't see why JRPG fans or whatever come to this series and expecting a deep story or some shit. Untold would be more your strong suit anyhow.

I just can't understand what you enjoy exactly of this series. Combat and dungeoning I guess, but I just cannnot imagine anyone enjying random encounters and the typical bland JRPG combat.

If you're only playing through once, Classic. I'd recommend running two saves with each mode instead though.

That's only relevant in the first Untold, because it has a lot of content locked behind Story.

This, I used to fill the empty times in games with imagination. EO is one of the only series that has consistently allowed me to scratch that itch that modern gaming has widely ignored.
Sub par party in EO? It's not a minmax planning issue, it's a bunch of rookie adventurers with big hearts out to try their odds in the face of almost certain death, forging deeper bonds through their inherently flawed party makeup.

I know just how you feel. I made her a punching healer anyways because I just couldn't go without it. Due to healing duties she never got that many chances to punch shit and never did as much as my main damage dealer, but I didn't care. She was still cool to me.

I never actually watched Ranma so I never associated her with Ranma. I can definitely see the similarities because you'd have to blind to not see how they look alike, but Ranma was never the first thing that came to mind when I saw her.

Almost every team comp will run into an area that turns really difficult for them. If you're getting assraped through the entire game though you've probably fucked up somewhere building your team. You shouldn't need to "grind" if you're doing at least most of the quests when they show up.
>>
>>339212324
Naturally that's the name if the game for Fencer sets. Their Chains work like Chase skills but they automatically hit first in a turn and follow up every [element] skill with Stab plus [element] attacks from allies.
The Shaman's elemental enchants however only effect basic attacks, so you can't quite turn your bunny into a flaming, whirring bunny Buzzsaw of death with their Cherry Blossom attack (which is hits to each enemy = number of katanas (4) x number of enemies + the Demon Unrivaled skill which increases the damage of Multi hit attacks by each attack in the combo.)

There is also Reclassing, which allows you to use every class as every race (Bronie's naturally shit STR might make them a poor choice for a fencer for example.)

I'd actually recommend messing around with your party composition to include either a Nightseeker or Sniper, as ailments and binds are EXTREMELY useful for this game.
>>
>>339212929
That's an okay team. Your Dancer is on the front line right? Chase/Trick Samba can help you abuse Link skills with your Landie. If you don't have the Dancer on the front line then your damage is probably pretty damn low. Also you may want to start leveling up a Sniper for the 2nd half of the 2nd Stratum Dungeon. I don't think you really have access to many reliable binds which you'll probably want.

Not that guy, but it's really good. Just make sure to use the weapon glitch where you equip a weapon on the first slot, but equip nothing below it. It allows you to use fist skills while having the attack power of a weapon. Use etheric charge which applies a 3.0x damage boost to your breakfire fist and singularity boosts your damage against enemies with weaknesses. Fire Mastery also boosts your breakfire fist's damage by 11% when fully maxed out. A gladiator is also a good sub considering it lets you use your other fist skills with great amounts of damage from charge and berserker's vow.

My bad, if you plan to make a combat medic then anything will really work. If you choose to have a zodiac as your subclass, I'd recommend getting singularity for a significant damage boost. In general, maxing Form Qi is a lot better than leveling up your healing skills individually, but you want to unlock party heal pretty fast. Once your healing needs are met, you're gonna want to max out breakfire fist, but singularity provides a 50% damage bonus against all enemies weak to either blunt or fire so keep that in mind as well.

These games are really bad, I have no idea how they've gotten so many sequels. Probably because you can panhandle for 15 minutes outside of a Walmart and be able to fully fund a 240p 3DS game. There are far better dungeon crawl games to spend your time on.
