You may remember me as YoshiJRC. I've been around a long time with little to show for it. But I mean well!

Best RPG Boss Battles

There's the Nue whom you fight 'cause it's terrorizing a farm or something, and then you learn it was just trying to feed its young, there's the ghosts of McNeil's ancestors who attack you because you broke into his mansion... there's the guys you fight in the tournament (including Garr who later joins), there's the multiple fights with Balio and Sunder culminating in a final battle against their fused form, Garr again, the crime lord in Sin City, the weird guy who was trying to revive his dead wife, Garr's friend, the old dragon lord guy, Teepo, and of course Myria.

that final fight against Balio and Sunder was damn frustrating, since you finally beat them after they'd been screwing things up for you since the first few hours of the game, and then they just die like any other enemy in the game and are forgotten from then on. BoF IV twists the knife even further, though, by never even letting you fight the villain who screws your party over... goddamnit, Yuna.

The RM2K group on facebook...

Doesn't look like anyone still posts there. Just as well, since it seems all they were doing was hating on RPG Advocate and calling people fags. You know... the kind of thing people (including myself, I admit) did on Don's over a decade ago?

...though that pic of Advo is pretty funny.

The RM2K group on facebook...

Weird. I just found this.

Link!

Most of its members are people I remember from the old Don Miguel forum days. They've, uh.... I dunno. Just look.

I think the Breath of Fire series has always been pretty good at mostly averting that sort of shit.
uh

think about that for a second.

Okay well I guess I mostly mean BoF III and IV. I actually can't remember the bosses in I and II very well, except for the hard ones.

If we're just talking ONE boss fight that's particularly memorable, Giygas in Earthbound was a big one for me. In part because Earthbound was my first RPG. His final form was rather terrifying.

Best RPG Boss Battles

generally, I get annoyed when RPGs have too many bosses that are like, "BWAAAGHR I'M THIS BIG MONSTER DUDE WHO LIVES IN THIS CAVE THAT YOU HAD TO WALK THROUGH FOR SOME REASON!!"... admittedly, this has happened in plenty of RPGs that I actually like.

I think the Breath of Fire series has always been pretty good at mostly averting that sort of shit.

What fascinates you the most in an RPG?

the presence of Ghaleon.

What other genres/games do you like/play that AREN'T RPGs?

the last non-RPG game I played extensively was Tekken 6.

I've always loved fighting games. Although I always get stuck in some sort of limbo with them... I get to a point where I could beat all of my real-life friends with my eyes closed, but then I play online and get my ass handed to me in a doggy bag.

Indie Games Getting attention

sometimes it's the games you'd least expect....

remember Laxius Power/Laxius Force?! Bleh.
