Reading From the Sacred Texts

  • Non-RPGs that need to be RPGs
    • Blaze Knight - Such an engaging question. I apologize in advance for the lengthy answer. I'd love to see more horror RPGs. So a character driven horror franchise like Resident Evil or Fatal Frame would lend themselves to the genre really well. I'd also like to see how a Stealth based RPG could pan out, so series like Metal Gear, A Plague Tale, Shadow Tactics: Blade of the Shogun, or Wildfire. Good candidates for tactical RPGs would be Mass Effect, State of Decay, or the Walking Dead.
    • grrouchie - I would love to see an actual Zelda RPG, and I'd love some Sports RPGs as well. But, horror. I want a good, deep, bloody, scary horror RPG

    • Sky_Katchr_Gaming - Non-RPG series should be Sonic. To take on an RPG would be Streets of Rage. Or Ninja Turtles

  • Delroy - Just a general RPG question: is the “Royal” conten

The RPG Cave 56: Our Favorite RPG Remakes and Remasters | Trials of Mana | FFVII Remake23 Jul 202201:17:16

This week on the fifty-sixth level of The RPG Cave, Garret and Ryan celebrate the release of Live A Live with a look back at their favorite RPG Remakes and Remasters.

Clearing the Dungeon

Reading From the Sacred Texts

  • Our favorite RPG Remakes and Remasters
    • Ngachacha @ngachacha - We all know Final Fantasy 7 Remake is fantastic but I want to give a shoutout to one of my favorite games of all time which is a remaster of an action-rpg, and that is NieR Replicant version 122474487139! That brand new ending left me in tears for days!
    • Blaze Knight - A few of my favorite remakes/remasters are FFVI on DS (crank the difficulty up to 11 on this one), The GBA remasters of Breath of Fire and Breath of Fire II (turns the grinding down by half!), and Shining Force GBA (Added story relevant characters and new mechanics). A few remakes I hope to get to at some point: Chrono Cross, Secret of Mana and Fire Emblem: Shadows of Valencia. And a couple I would like to see remade: Lunar series, Lufia series, and Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance/Radiant Dawn.
    • Sky_Katchr_Gaming - Well I've only played one and that's Radiant Historia Perfect Chronology on 3DS.  I never played the DS version but I heard that the art style is great. So someday I'll play it. I'd love to see remasters of the Tales games that are not on PS4 or Switch. Also all of the Mario and Mario and Luigi RPGs on Switch.
The RPG Cave 55: Tales of Symphonia ft. Kevin Ainsworth!09 Jul 202201:00:34

This week on the fifty-fifth level of The RPG Cave, Ryan is joined by special guest Kevin Ainsworth to talk about Tales of Symphonia and why it was one of the GameCube’s most defining RPGs!

The RPG Cave 54: Our Favorite RPG Support Characters | FFVII | Tales of Vesperia02 Jul 202200:55:31

This week on the fifty-fourth level of The RPG Cave, Garret and Ryan talk about their favorite support characters in RPGs!

Clearing the Dungeon

Reading From the Sacred Texts

  • Our favorite RPG support charactersTheMuff1nMon - Since I'm in a Fire Emblem mood - I have to shoutout the support and best Golden Deer - Marianne. Such a sweet character with a much deeper, darker complex backstory. And as I usually do - a shoutout for a Tales character and I'm going to go with Mint from Tales of Phantasia - the quintessential healer. She literally can't do damage but is always there to heal the party, provide debuffs or even freeze time to support the team. Awesome design, awesome character.
    Blaze Knight - Gotta give my shout out to Narsha of Shining Force: Resurrection of the Dark Dragon for GBA and Reyson from Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance. The former was a character added to the GBA remake that is all about support, she has access to the Attack Spell which boosts your allies attacks, full party heal in Aura, and increased movement speeds in Step spell. The latter is a rare Heron who in his beast form can grant an additional turn to up to 4 party members, plus he flies for easily placement in battle.
    Ngachacha @ngachacha
    - Huge shout out to Sharla from Xenoblade Chronicles who literally shoots her party members with healing rounds to restore health. But my personal favorite is definitely Aerith from Final Fantasy 7 Remake! Using Arcane Ward to cast spells twice is ridiculously OP!
    Jennsen R’lyeh(Nick) @JennsenVT - Vivi from FFIX

The RPG Cave 53: The Best Non-RPGs with RPG Mechanics25 Jun 202201:17:45

This week on the fifty-third level of The RPG Cave, Garret and Ryan talk about their favorite non-RPGs that use RPG mechanics!

Clearing the Dungeon

Reading From the Sacred Texts

  • Our favorite non-RPGs that use RPG mechanicsSmooth423 - Hear me out......Minecraft. Do you think Minecraft is a non-rpg with RPG mechanics? The Minecraft books make it seem so too. Also the Minecraft Audiobook with Jack Black -  Minecraft: The Island is a great listen. I highly recommend it.
    Ngachacha @ngachacha - Golf Story is definitely one of my favorites! It is a fantastic golf game with rpg mechanics like leveling up specific golf skills and optional side quests. Nintendo needs to shadow drop Sports Story at the next Nintendo Direct!
    SkinnyMatt @skinnymattk - I was curious about how you feel about “buying” your skills in a skill tree?  Specifically for a game like Yakuza 0.  I’m on the fence about buying your skills, but personally I feel Yakuza does it very well because it allows you to customize to your play style.

    What makes a poor skills and skill tree system?
    Great examples of skills and skill trees in RPGs
    Poor examples of skills and skill trees in RPGs

    Final thoughtsGingy_37 - Definitely not a fan of complex skill trees.  I don’t want to feel like I’m learning calculus and geometry when using a skill tree.  My fav skill tree is in Ori and the Blind Forest.  Nice and simple yet felt rewarding when you unlocked a skill.what game’s skill tree did you start off hating but towards the end of the game you ended up liking it?
