Current Events > I want a RPG Resident Evil thats plays similar to Like a Dragon.

(+) Yeah! (+)

I don't know what that means tbqh
LaD played like a Yakuza game. RE doesn't take place in a bustling city or feature hand-to-hand combat so I don't know what kind of similarities it would have to a Yakuza game.

Then play Parasite Eve like the rest of us.

The first is still amazing apart from Ayas walk speed.

The second is still a mediocre RE clone.

The 3rds still abysmal garbage.

I'm not arguing with your assessment but I did clearly say "Parasite Eve" and not "Parasite Eve 2/3." ~.~

Since Nintendo's decided to let it rot as it is, I wouldn't mind an F Zero that plays like a Yakuza game. Keep racing in as a very prominent minigame but give people the Smash Bros Captain Falcon that a bunch of them probably want.

I haven't played a Yakuza but they look sorta okayish just not in a way that excites me. I almost did, someone gifted me one and as it turns out if you don't accept the thing after about a month, Steam refunds it. F Zero GX was full of characters that'd fit into those kinds of weird side stories and the way the interviews were only one question after winning a grand prix, a lot of people simply didn't get to see a lot of personality out of the characters. It'd be nice to give them another go. It could even be a Nintendo/Sega crossover just like GX.

Like a Dragon isnt like a typical Yakuza game though. It is a turn based RPG.

I cant tell if serious.....

I just wanted to say, despite having a cool name and box cover, that 3rd birthday is one of the biggest "wtf happened" in gaming.

Oh, and leveling up wasn't exciting at all because it was also not clear if you'd get an actual useful move or just another pointless one that is anti-strategy

Maybe I played it wrong and just don't understand this type of turn based jibberish. But somemy favorite games are turn based.

I enjoyed the combat but tbh I was looking at guides while developing my characters. If I had no clue about what moves would be learned by what class and what transferred between classes, I probably would've felt similarly.

I am serious, there is literally nothing about RE that would fit into the Yakuza format

I enjoyed the combat but tbh I was looking at guides while developing my characters. If I had no clue about what moves would be learned by what class and what transferred between classes, I probably would've felt similarly.

Been a while since I played it, but IIRC what abilities are learned and if they can be used by another class is all available in-game.

That wasn't my problem. My problem was the lack of usefulness of those attacks. No matter what I switched to, none of them felt good to play because every attack I used that wasn't the regular attack immediately made me think "....and why would I use this again?". Doesn't help there was no Hard mode to motivate me to figure out if there were actual strategies, like with DQ11.

Its just a turn based rpg using RE characters for party and Bio weapons for enemies. Yakuza was full beat em up and they did it with that. I still cant tell if serious.

I want more RPG's that take place during modern times in general. LAD was so freaking great.

I know and I don't really disagree. Just saying to ESMZ there's no need for a guide in terms of when/how abilities are learned and what carries over as it's all available when you go check the classes for each character.

So you just want a turn-based RE then? Because I'm still pretty unclear on what other elements from LaD would even make sense in a RE

It's hard to imagine a good RE RPG in the style of the games they've been making post-4

There's not much depth to the combat during what I played. Don't get the JP love for Dragon Quest which tends to be a "press A" simulator.

If this was directed at me,

It wasn't, and grinding + using your best attacks or needing to heal doesn't make a JRPG interesting. Yakuza 7's turn mechanics are inherently too simple.

I am curious what makes a good JRPG to you

What about Koudelka, and the follow-up Shadow Hearts?

Shadow Hearts is pretty fantastic.
