Undertale

This forum is specifically for discussing non-Mafia games
(board, card, video, we're not picky)
.
Playing
such games should happen in the Mish Mash forum, of course.

So I'm guessing this just doesn't work on mobile? <_<

Also I beat Neutral, Pacifist, and most of Genocide (before giving up due to impatience to know the rest of the story and watching the rest of the run on youtube). Amazing game. Easily GOTY.

If I had a SAVE file I'd use it to

fight asgore and omega Flowey for the first time over and over again

I know it's 2015 but if anyone ITT hasn't played earthbound there's a very high probability you'll like it. Unless you only enjoyed undertale's combat system and hated everything else.

Disagree. Undertale is basically Earthbound with a vastly better soundtrack, 5% of the slow unskippable cutscenes, 30% of the slow tedious walking about, and 500% of the ability to connect to the player.

I never liked Earthbound really. I tried to like it several times. And I liked just about every other 16-bit RPG.

If you run out of space in your inventory in EarthBound you're bad at games.

Then again I don't get why anyone would hang on to most items in most games.

Chrono Trigger, Final Fantasy VI (then III), and Super Mario RPG?

Weird tangent, but did you like Riviera? That game drives in how much of a waste it is not to use rare one-shot items you run across, what with limited inventory space, those rare one-shots getting obsoleted by other rare one-shots, and occasionally getting your books drenched and unusable.

Based on your description though: I should clarify that I'm talking about junk items intended for such lowly purposes as healing and the like.

I am exactly the kind of person who hoards items. Managed to not do it in undertale, though! It helped that they were mostly healing items or equipment.

my issue was that they threw a number of items at you that were useful; but either at very discrete and rare points in the game or it wasn't obvious if you would need them or not

pencil eraser and eraser eraser come to mind; i remember banking that and not having it when i needed it and raging a bit

And I mean "Hey guys I made you a device to clear obstacles in your path" but sure, the first time I played I dumped it after the first one and had to pull it out later.
