So what's that game you want to finish but can't seem to get yourself to boot it up?

I love JRPGs, but after beating XC2 and SMT4a, every other JRPG feels so fucking lacking it's dissapointing.

Jrpgs are such a time sink. I just decided to quit the genre altogether, it's usually the same story anyways. Teenager saves a weirdly fashioned world with belts and colored hair styles against all odds.

I feel this way about games that more or less expect you to play multiplayer. I own shit like Rocket League, Splatoon 2, Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate, and Smash, but I literally never boot them up again after a couple of hours of play because I just can't be assed to have to interact with other people to play a video game.

Fire emblem three houses. Played black eagles first, got to timeskip and bailed. Want to finish so i can get ng+ benefits also not because I've put it off for so long i need to replay for story/characters

I was super excited to play this after playing so much of Xenoblade 2, the only JRPG that's ever managed to hold my attention for more than a few hours. But I'm just after the point where you meet the Mechonis natives and get Fiora back and for some reason I just don't feel very motivated to keep going. It's not like the story's bad or anything, and I can definitely see why a lot of people prefer it over 2, but there's a lot of little things about it which just seem to make it less appealing to me as an overall package.

What is it about that particular section that makes so many people drop off? I always remember it coming up a lot when people mentioned losing momentum while playing the original game as well.

My biggest issue is that there are a billion side quests in the first game and about 98% of them are just filler in case you're strapped for cash in the off chance you ever actually need to spend money on something. Which you typically don't after you buy all the art books since you're guaranteed to get better equipment from killing shit rather than ever wasting money on new equipment. It sucks a lot too because I feel consistently compelled to visit every goddamn exclamation mark on the map just to remove it from my sight but then my quest backlog is fucking enormous which is also annoying. One thing I really liked about 2 over the first game was that all those filler quests were relegated to passive merc missions, so every actual side quest you picked up in the world yourself felt more worthwhile and interesting.

That's interesting actually, I'm honestly surprised to hear I'm not the only one since story wise it's actually quite an interesting point. I wonder if it's just because slogging through Mechon enemies without anti-mechon weapons is a massive fucking slog and I've been doing it for what feels like fucking ages now. It doesn't help that I don't enjoy the combat as much as 2's to begin with, but the chances are I'm doing a few things very wrong too.

Getting Fiora back feels like a satisfying ending to Shulk's entire character arc, and everything after kinda feels like fluff that just has to happen because there's been too much shit set up at that point to not follow through. I think the content that follows is fine, but everything leading up to rescuing Fiora is the best the game has to offer.

Probably Metal Face, the main hook to keep going, being dead soon before and the fact that you've left the Bionis at that point so you know the scenery is mainly going to be more metallic like Sword Valley from now on. I think the game doesn't do a very good job of setting up Egil as an antagonist, but it's understandable considering he's more like an anti-hero than anything.

>switch version isn’t muddy garbage

Right.

I’m currently doing the tomb parr as Melia, someone give me a quick summary of the story so far because I keep losing track with all these shit side quests

Unless the side quest has a clock next to it, you really need not worry about it. Well, I say that, but Alcamoth has plenty of those. Don't worry about Alcamoth's side quests either because the time for those doesn't run out for a while.

I have a hard time getting into the gameplay after playing newer Personas first.

The same thing is happening to me

It is

Nah.

I like the game but I recently moved and I need to fucking dig out my PS3 and just can't be assed since that's the last game I have left to play on it
Maybe I'll get around to it when the next game eventually gets announced

>Shulk's waifu gets spitroasted by Metal Face, Reyn and Shulk go off on a funtime revenge adventure
>Meet some big titty pajeet and her dipshit brother, rescue them from another faced mechon with a big fucking hammer a few times
>Dunban shows up and instantly becomes the best party member
>Meet Melia and Riki in the forest, fight a magic dragon
>Melia takes you to her bird people city, gets bullshitted into some super dangerous inheritance ceremony that no one actually does anymore because of some royal succession bullshit
