Do game companies accept ideas?

But wasn't Star Ocean random encounter? As I recall, you'd be running around and BOOM, enemies. Though it's been a while since I played it.

Star Ocean 2 was (don't remember 1) not 3.

I didn't play remnant so was not sure.

Positive Enchanted Arms was.

Infinite Undiscovery wasn't random.

Not 1, Star Ocean 1 (I found an english transaltion Rom :3) and 3 were Epic. I hated Second story.

And I'm in the process of playing The last hope.

The SNES one had a random encounter system as I recall. I'd walk along and BOOM, battle without seeing the enemy.

Edit: Yeah, just checked, there are Random Battles in SO1.

Hmmm.
Still Star ocean 3 wins X3

[Apex]

This.

Also, what was wrong with Star Ocean 2?

I never got a chance to do all of the bonus stuff in Star Ocean 4 (because I don't own a 360, had to borrow one for Star Ocean.); but just from the story to the first part of the bonus stuff, the battle system and the invention system, I found 3 superior in every way. SO3 was overkill good for me.

[Darkfox]

I have a gripe with SO3 though... Bitter Dance. It is played at the most inappropriate times. Fayt's father dies and not long after this... DANCE WHILE I PUT YA IN A TRAAAANCE!

Riveting! XD

[Deathreaper]

Yeah, Bitter Dance... that's a travesty of a song being played at the wrong times all the time

[Felix-0]

Nah, I <3'd that song. Let's no forget jazz music plays at the final boss

Okage was a weird random encounter game, and if I remember right it was fun as hell, even if the combat could become a little...weird...

EDIT: It was weird in the fact that the monsters were randomly generated touch encounter type deals. A ghost would pop up and if you hit it, you'd go into combat.

[Nandez]

Star Ocean 2 was great.
But it was the type of game were you really have to be in a certain mood to play it otherwise you will never ever play it.

The best mix of RPG and FPS was Fallout, which really has no Playpack value, but it's one of those games that can be so time consuming you don't WANT to play it back.

I disagree. I'm considering a second playthrough with a different karma path, the evil path this time. So it has replay value.

Random encounter FPS = Left 4 Dead.

But that's multiplayer. We exclude multiplayer because all games play out differently, even when the goals are predetermined. Good example, but the multiplayer element disqualifies it.

It was meh. Deus Ex or STALKER are much finer examples.

"Meh" is a bit of an understatement, and we're all relatively aware that you have a degree of malice towards Fallout 3 (as most owners of the first two do), but I agree that the other two games are better (seriously, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. is one of the best games I've ever played).

damn...you win this round drace

Games like this, you typically play through twice, one for good, one for evil. This is not really a lot of replay value.

[Archem]

More than usual!




Ok, this is a fail defense.
