Message: [QUOTE="TheImmortalP, post: 352461, member: 518"] I think it's a very interesting question and I really wanna hear peoples stories. [B]What's something from the PS2 era that you found out about somewhat recently that you really dig, but wish that someone told you about it during the PS2 era, because you probably would have liked it more if someone had let you know about it during the PS2 era? It doesn't have to be something on the PS2, just something that came out during the systems lifetime.[/B] For example, I didn't know anything about [B]Ring Of Red[/B], and I think it's one of the best PS2 RPGs. It's a PS2 turn based rpg historical fantasy game that asks what if world war 2 went into the 60's, and Japan was divided into two countries, and they had mechs! Oh, and women participated in the fighting! In this games universe, the atom bomb exists, and it hit Hiroshima, but japan didn't surrender. Also, aircraft is banned in this war since you can't launch an atom bomb without aircraft. Atom bombs weren't removed from the world, but the world powers agreed to not use aircraft, and the first to use aircraft will have all the other world powers set against them. I also was afraid that the game was gonna pull a "women in refridgerators" trope, but nope, the one woman in your party wasn't killed early on. I just really, really wish that a fan of the game had tried to sell me on the game during the era. I also wish that someone would have told me what [B]Red Faction[/B] is about during the PS2 era. Sure people talked about the how destructable the environments are, but no one told me that it's a game where you're a miner that's a slave in all but name, and you revolt and free your other miners. To me this was the era where action games started having a much bigger focus on telling great stories, and yet no one ever recommended it to me despite me constantly making topics on other forums asking for Action games that aren't rpgs that tell really good stories. On a related note, I made a topic asking for recent action games and action rpgs that are story rich, and no one's mentioned anything that isn't an rpg. This feels like a huge, sitewide problem, and I feel like I'm the only person on all of the forums that wants action games that aren't also rpgs that have a focus on compelling characters. [B]Everything Or Nothing [/B]also seems fun[B],[/B] sure wish that someone told me about it, and I'm surprised that no one's recommended it to me until today. [/QUOTE]
