If you're interested, I wrote an article about why the summer of 1999 was special when the first translation patch was released for Seiken Densetsu 3 (Trials of Mana): www.rpg-o-mania.com/coverage_sei...

I'm still doing that.

I created some of the FF14 job icons in a higher resolution and vectorized them. Feel free to do with them what you want: www.rpg-o-mania.com/coverage_ff1...

I don't know why so many fishing minigames in RPGs use buttonmashing to reel in. This is so incredibly unrealistic. www.rpg-o-mania.com/ower-dms/gal...

Play-In-Progress: Ys X, chapter 6. It is "fine" right now, keeps me motivated. But boy did they bloat the game. Dana and Monstrum Nox were swift, evade-based games with a great story, Nordics is system upon system upon system with great characters, great music, a meh story and a convoluted gameplay.

NEU bei VSG von @rpg-o-mania.bsky.social Ich mag keine Videospiele - Das ist ein ziemlicher Claim, hier auf Videospielgeschichten, oder? Und tatsächlich, so richtig mag ich Videospiele nicht... www.videospielgeschichten.de/ich-mag-kein...

I'm not trying to smooth talk, but Thomas does a really good job especially writing about RPGs and the like. If you can speak German, the M! games is a great read. It can also be purchased digitally, so no need to go to a Kiosk in a German speaking country :D

Ys VIII - X

und ich stimme zu!

New review up! www.rpgreats.com/2024/11/drag...

I see myself in this message. :D

This really shows much of what I dislike on this game. Squished sprites. Enemies that just move around by some pixels. Attack animations that are just the static sprite two times mirrored. Random attacks without any logic behaviour by the enemies. Aaah!

Auf der Polaris trafen wir André Eymann von Videospielgeschichten. @vsgde.bsky.social Eine tolle Website für alle, die mal selbst Artikel rund um das Thema "gaming" verassen möchten. www.videospielgeschichten.de

And we finish our series of 25 recommendations with a total of over 30 recommendations. Check them out here: www.rpg-o-mania.com/coverage_25y... :)

I tried to remake some of the old #suikoden runes in a higher resolution. Here are the True Fire Rune and the Sun Rune. On my site, you can also find vectorized svg-images of both. www.rpg-o-mania.com/coverage_sui... www.rpg-o-mania.com/coverage_sui...

One game I played this year that didn't release in 2024 www.rpg-o-mania.com/ower-dms/gal...

Batch 2 of 25 years - 25 recommendations. This time with lots of games from tri-ace. www.rpg-o-mania.com/coverage_25y...

The US version famously missed two music tracks.

Does anyone know if Romancing Saga 2 does have multiple towns to visit (so that it is a regular old rpg in that regard) or does it only cover a hub town?

Let's celebrate 25 years of rpg-o-mania with this fine set of articles (not written by me, hehe) with 25 recommendations of rpgs for 25 years! www.rpg-o-mania.com/coverage_25y...

NEU! Final Fantasy XIV: Die Hoffnung der 80er-Jahre von @rpg-o-mania.bsky.social Manchmal logg ich mich in Final Fantasy XIV ein und häng nur in der Stadt rum und träum von der technisch-friedlichen Zukunft, die wir uns in den 80ern ausgemalt hatten. www.videospielgeschichten.de/final-fantas...

I love the Visions of Mana artwork!
