Join us for another episode of HitPoint, your one-stop podcast for everything JRPG! This week, we're diving deep into the fascinating evolution of the genre, from the golden days of 2D pixel art to the groundbreaking mechanics and narratives of today's titles.We'll be touching upon the ongoing debate between classic and modern JRPG art styles, the transformation in game mechanics over the years, and the exciting dynamic between indie and triple-A titles in the current gaming landscape.Expect to hear us discussing the most recent JRPG news, including game updates and upcoming releases. We're also excited to showcase a selection of new game trailers, and talk about exciting developments from the industry.This week's question of the week is: "If you could bring back one element from classic JRPGs to modern games, what would it be and why?" We can't wait to hear your responses, so make sure to leave your thoughts in the comments!Tune in every Sunday at 7pm Central / 8pm Eastern.Video Description✩ Audio Version ✩ ► https://superderekrpgs.com/hitpoint/ SOCIAL LINKS --------------------------------------------------- ✩ Derek ✩ ►Twitter: https://twitter.com/SuperDerekRPGs ►Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/SuperDerekRPGs ►Discord: https://discord.me/superderek✩ Baku ✩ ►Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/BakusanJRPG ►Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/BakusanJRPG►Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/weebsauce ►Discord: https://discord.me/ABCUPCOMING RELEASES --------------------------------------------------- ►Yggdra Union: We'll Never Fight Alone 07/27/2024https://store.steampowered.com/app/2107860/Yggdra_Union/ ►Great Ambition of the Slimes 07/26/2024https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9vLCvaDwSx0 ►Arcadian Atlas 07/27/2024https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j9ndtm4mI80 GAME ANNOUNCEMENTS --------------------------------------------------- ►UFO Robot Grendizer - The Feast of the Wolves 11/14/2023https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LppRKm3-x7o ►One Piece: Pirate Warriors 4 - DLChttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xi4Y49FUPsE EXTERNAL LINKS --------------------------------------------------- ►XC3 gets Mythra/Pyra Amiibo updatehttps://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/59259/~/how-to-update-xenoblade-chronicles-3#v210 ►Arcadian Atlas physical games (And 2 LP Vinyl OST)https://serenityforge.com/games/arcadian-atlas ►Gamescom 2023https://b2b.gamescom.global/gamescom/the-gamescom/ ►NieR: Automata Orchestra live concert tourhttps://www.nierconcert.com/ ►ANN: NieR:Automata Ver 1.1a Anime Gets 2nd Courshttps://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2023-07-23/nier-automata-ver-1.1a-anime-gets-2nd-cours/.200588 TIMESTAMPS---------------------------------------------------Welcome Back to Hit Point!0:00:00 Welcome Back to Hit Point!0:01:08 Intro0:01:40 Baku how are you doing?0:03:10 What have you been up to?0:08:14 Baku plays A Space for the UnboundLast Week's Comments:0:13:05 Comment 1: I wonder if Derek and Baku will read this late comment before the next episode?0:14:16 Comment 2: I'm part of the mowing the lawn club.0:18:47 Comment 3: One of the slowest news week, becomes one of your greatest interesting Episodes0:19:18 Voice Mail: How do you feel about the replayability of JRPGsQuestion of the Week0:37:09 QotW: Which one element from a RPG would you bring back?Updates & DLC Round-Up0:39:20 Xenoblade 3 adds support for the Pyra and Mythra AmiiboUpcoming Releases This Week 0:43:32 Yggdra Union0:46:10 Great Ambition of the SLIMES0:48:30 Arcadian Atlas New Game Announced:0:51:48 UFO Robot Grendizer0:55:41 One Piece: Pirate Warriors 4 Character Pass 2 Industry News:0:59:04 Bamco confirmed for Gamescom 20231:00:39 Nier Automata Concert Tour + Anime Part 2 Side Quests (Discussion Topics):1:05:05 How was it for you when others found out you wasted your time with video games?1:24:44 How has the Art of JRPGs changed?Responding to Super Chats & Outro 1:49:12 Super Chat 1: I crawled from the death of Black Desert Online.1:50:39 Super Chat 2: Biggest gaming regret?1:55:33 Super Chat 3: Loving the new videos on the channel.1:57:19 Super Chat 4: I think I prefer a ton of optional Side content over branching paths.1:59:14 Super Chat 5: Mint or OG Oreo?
