>>5724Deceit of Heretics? Not gonna lie, it was one of my favorite games on java. The amount of top tier dark humor pearls was just insane.
Btw, the list was updated and now it's including also more popular stuff. I guess, I should just delete the thread and make a new one now.

Just wanted to post and say thanks for this.
I don't have anything particular to say but I thought I would let you know how much I appreciate this so you don't feel you're dumping pics into the void.

Hey OP, have you ever played Jimmy and the Pulsating Mass? If so, what did you think of it?

>>5737Thanks, man. Well, at least the threads here aren't dying fast, so it won't go to nowhere surely heh.
>>5738Haven't played yet but heard a lot of good things about it and that it is some mix between End Roll, Lisa and Earthbound. If you played it and can give a description, I will put it as well.

>>5735I love Pocket Mirror, very nice addition.
I'd like to nominate Amayado Bus Stop (雨宿バス停留所) for the list. This game is severely underrated. I found the puzzles fun, the atmosphere is great, the story is interesting, and it's pretty cute. Definitely give it a try if you like the genre.

>>5740Thanks for addition, anon, gonna put it in next time. In the future I probably will separate JRPG's from Puzzle horrors, but for now it's gonna stay a kind of mess.
Besides, here's the pastebin for all the download links posted here and there, so anons shouldn't search for them in threads. Right now there aren't many of them, but it's gonna get larger.

>>5741Great. I see, it looks manageable for now, but we'll see how long it'll grow.
By the way, you probably want to add the original (RM2000, Japanese (not the Chinese translation)) version of Mogeko Castle to the download list; it was posted here:
>>5731 It's a great game by Deep-Sea Prisoner (who made Wadanohara and The Grey Garden too), and only the remake (which is playable in English too) was available in Japanese before.

Looks like there is a need for a second list.
Maybe separating them into translated and not? Or regarding genre?
No.5792
I agree with this anon
>>5791Top-to-down divided by genre, left-and-right by translation status, or something like that. It makes it easier to tell what to expect of a game.
No.5793
>>5790I was thinking about replacing them with something more obscure, since they don't really fit much in the list (at the very least replace Wadda with Mogeko, flow. with fleshchild etc.).
Also, I'll check the titles. You're welcome to give descriptions also.
>>5791>>5792Some anon suggested to separate them by alphabet order, but I'll do it only when all the templates are filled. I don't think that separating by genres or translations could be a good idea: too much jrpg on the list compared to horrors and explo, as well as too much translated titles compared to untranslated.
About making a second list: probably, but I don't promise anything. Have to finish some important stuff first, and I just hope I could bring this list to a nice state (delete some unneded stuff, make nice backgrounds to templates etc.).

Updated! (added some descriptions + backgrounds, so some templates won't look like shit).
>>5790Added almost everything, but instead of Fifth Era I added Theia: The Crimson Eclipse (by the same dev), ok? Well, if you insist, I would replace it back with Fifth Era.
>>5797>>5794Thanks for kind words, guys (actually, I kinda like to task with creating stuff like this. The problem is that it takes too much time, so I have to refrain from this a bit for the sake of other projects).

Demon King Chronicle, Helen's Mysterious Castle, and Touhou Wandering Souls are my favorite RPG Maker games.
>>5813I've only played the version on vgperson's site, but it's ridiculously, insanely easy. Normal fights are 100% optional and if you fight like, one enemy per dungeon you'll wind up overleveled.
No.5822
>>5818how is demon king chronicle? what is it about?
No.5824
>>5822It takes place on a magic island where stories have the power to alter reality. The protagonist's goal is to find the ending to a dead author's unfinished book. It's not very dialogue heavy and if you want to understand what's happening you'll have to put a bit of effort into piecing information together.
Its combat system isn't anything too interesting on its own, the way you get into fights and what happens between fights are both really unique and make it so attrition from numerous battles and getting crushed in one big battle are both serious threats. Monsters can be seen in dungeons while exploring like in Chrono Trigger, Earthbound, etc. But in Demon King Chronicle, the monsters hunt in packs and you want to try to pick off small numbers at a time if you can. When you attack one, often its friends will try to swarm you and if they succeed you're probably going to die, so you need to be careful. After winning a fight, your HP and MP will slowly regenerate for a little while. If you get attacked by something else right after winning, you won't have a chance to rest and they'll wear you down.
No.5825
>>5818>>5824I was trying the demon king chronicle and the start seems too tedious and grindy, is it the whole game like that?
No.5826
>>5825You hardly need to grind at all. Finding new items will increase your strength way faster than grinding levels will. Exploration is dangerous when you're low level and you need to be super careful about fighting small numbers of enemies at a time, but that's a big part of the fun. The level cap is needlessly high so if you want to grind your problems away the game allows it, you just don't have to.
I'm not gonna say you can beat the game with no grinding at all because I'm sure that isn't true. There's a world of difference between an item you just equipped and an item you've fully mastered. But you can get away with very little grinding if you know which items are good and how to acquire them. In my first playthrough I got stonewalled a lot (which I personally enjoy,) but on my second playthrough the pacing was very brisk.

Is Your Turn To Die/Kimi Ga Shine considered to be a gem, as in relatively hidden and unknown? I believe it's made in RPG maker so I was wondering if it was worth mentioning it in this thread.
It's a kind of mix between a visual novel/adventure horror/puzzle/death game with strong danganronpa roots.

>>5841>I believe it's made in RPG maker so I was wondering if it was worth mentioning it in this thread.Yeah, it is. I think it deserves a place here too.
No.5848
>>5828There's a certain distance that triggers a fight. There's no visual indication so you just need to get a feel for it, but it's the same for all enemies. Sometimes you can avoid fighting by keeping your distance, but a lot of the time you can't. Later enemies tend to pursue more aggressively, so you're generally safer trying to pick them off one by one rather than trying to avoid the whole lot. Once they're thinned out a bit you can usually run past the others.

>>5892It takes place in a world where a race called the Skyborn have won a war against humanity and rule over them now. The children of a skyborn and a human are called half breeds and they are being pursued, they get thrown into jail, never to be seen again. You start the game as a woman, who is a mechanic. At the start you lose your job and in an act of defiance you get dragged into the unfolding rebellion against the Skyborn. The characters are lovely, the story interesting and the combat unique. In combat there is threat, the party member with the highest threat gets hit by all the single enemy focused attacks, because of that you have to be careful what you do and when you do it.
