Currently playing both Cassette Beasts and SMT If...Cassette Beasts is pretty good so far. I thought the characters would be cringe, but the main companions are surprisingly likable.If... is also pretty good. I've heard a lot of shit talking about it, but it's not bad at all. World of Sloth is retarded, but that's only one area. The game has a lot of experimental mechanics, relatively speaking. Guardians (aka not-Personas), gemstones giving passive stats, consumable ammo, back row attack limitations, hell even just the idea of multiple companions and routes to play.

I keep getting into cycles of being autistically into Monster Rancher 2 DX, burning out on it for a few months, and then getting back into it. Right now I'm back on my bullshit and starting to build competitive monsters.

Finished mythic in Aethermancer, although I feel like I relied too much on the "Reactivate this monster" item

Finished my next order run and now I'm waiting for time stranger but I may skip it since the demo plays like cyber sleuth 3 and I'm somewhat burned out from that.

Tempted to get Digimon Time Stranger deluxe as a treat for myself, but I'm wondering if I should wait.

Anon10/01/25, 13:43No.3852488

Been playing Early Access Aethermancer and Monster Hunter Stories 1.And obviously come tomorrow, I'm gonna be all focused in on Digimon Time Stranger.

Tried out Aethermancer to burn time until Time Stranger, and it seems to have some good bones on it. Didn't expect to win on my first run, but Nixe and Tatzel had some pretty busted synergy right out the gate. And by the time Nixe had died, Tatzel had became a monster all its own with that one 5-cost fire/water fieldwide multi-hit nuke resulting in a ridiculous number of effect procs.Probably gonna have to shelve it until it gets more developed though. I've burnt myself too many times getting engrossed in the earliest of access roguelites and then losing all interest by the time the game actually has more content during full release.

Has anyone played the summon night games? I was thinking about picking up an SRPG but I don't know how extensive the whole monster aspects are in those games or how good they are in general.

>What are you playing? aethermancer early access and a new playthrough of siralim ultimate >And what are you looking forward to? the sequels to abomi nation, anode heart, and disc creatures look neat

I'm glad I didnt pay full price for Digimon, Im not really feeling it. It has some things going for it but the move variety is incredibly sad. Also Aura + Fortification trivializes everything and Im not really the 'hold back on purpose' type.

Anon10/05/25, 05:50No.3854097

I'm playing this game for the first time. You have mons and can evolve.

Anon10/06/25, 20:39No.3854981

>Time Stranger won't let you name a mon Gooch, but twink is okay 1984 is real. Fun game so far, otherwise. I just got to the part where you meet Minervamon.

>SMT where do i start? peeps keep saying smt v but i looked into it and it seemed to assume you're already familiar with the series.

Anon10/12/25, 07:33No.3857603

Overall Im enjoying Siralim Ultimate way more than Digimon, although they both have their own pros and cons. Digimons cons are just bigger.

Anon10/12/25, 19:06No.3857745

I want to have sex with this autistic Youtuber. Also, I kind of want Capcom to make a mon style game based on the megaman series. There's a lot of characters they could use, and Monster Hunter Stories prooves they can make competent mon games.

Anon10/16/25, 09:46No.3859565

Do we have a /mon/ approved game list? I need some GB and GBC reccs.

I played about 3 hours of Legends Z-A. Honestly? It's okay for what it is. >Catching mons is quick & fun >Decent variety of mons so far >Decent verticality and you don't have to worry about fall damage >Intro takes awhile to get going, but battles are fast paced enough >My biggest problem, like with regular pokemon, is that it's mostly 1v1 unless you're getting jumped by wild pokemon >GameFreak really didn't code a a check to see if a ranged attack will get blocked by the environment when you activate it. You could argue this is a skill issue, but your mon will pathfind for melee attacks >The game really needs a jump button (unless you get one from a pokemon way later) I wouldn't pay $60 burger bucks for it, but it's not a "bad" game.

Since it got brought up last thread, combat speed in coming in an update this year for Aethermancer. Honestly I'm curious what these player classes could be since the player character doesn't really contribute anything besides using items.
