discussion 08

Welcome to DISCUSSION!

Hi, everyone! Once a week, I'm going to give you a topic. All players need to do is give their opinions/stories/comments on said topic. There's nothing really formal about this, but you'll get cards for answering regardless. There's no requirement about how big or detailed of an answer you give, but try to avoid one word answers! (This is about talking, after all)

This week's topic is JRPG CLASSES.

A question you could answer (but are not limited/required to) is DO YOU LIKE HEALERS OR TANKS MORE. Or something like "I think I'd be a really good ninja in Log Horizon!"

You'll get 2 regular cards and 1 puzzle card for commenting. Prizes will be distributed throughout the week and this game ends on Tuesday, September 23rd.

I have totally nothing with them. I am more the type to play the characters that can smash everything with their bare hands.

haha don't play mmos with me because i just pick stuff that looks cool. my very first (or second?? whatevs) character on guild wars was a mesmer/ranger because mesmers were awesome looking and ranger skills meant you could have a pet. i was the most badass mesmer with a badass warthog partner.

but yeah i tend to prefer long-range and/or magical types because they're usually neater, but sometimes it is nice to just be a boring old warrior and then run in and smash everything. anything that causes big chaotic damage like elemental mages too haha.

I like them all...! But in general I like tanks and DPS over healers. In games like Tales I like playing the fast melee classes. Anything with speed and some durability.

NEITHER TANKS NOR HEALERS ROGUE CLASS REPRESENT

I mean. I have a THING for thieves and characters who specialize in dexterity, so my JRPG class of choice is definitely rogue. I don't really play a lot of mmorpgs and not many of the jrpgs I played had thief type characters (I can only remember Rikku from FFX) so I suppose I like the class narratively, for the types of characters it usually has, rather than. . . functionally. . .

styx doing jrpgs wrong since forever ago aw yeah

I don't play JRPGs. Like, they seem like there is a lot of story involved with them, and I'm not about that cut scene life. I could be wrong, but I like games where I can button mash my way to the top.

If I'm playing one? I totally need to be the person dealing the damage. I marvel at anyone who can play the classes where you stand back and cast spells or heal things or fire arrows because I need my fists or blade in the action, man. It's a...different definition of "damage control".

I usually play offensive spellcasters in games when I want to solo, but when with friends, I like being the healer! Being something that can deal damage with multiple hits is so cool though...

but in the end, red mage master race

WHEN IN DOUBT, FIREBALL

that's the best saying

LMFAO TANKS PLS... what a good class for the lazy butts

i'm too scared to be a tank tbh

"because i can use them to date people 85% of time"

it's true....

red mages are so good yeah.......

LMFAO OH MAN I'D BE SO SCARED TO DO THAT... i see people yelling at tanks so much in wow that i'm like

haha no i'll stay over here shooting ice at everyone

you are a brave soul

... yeah good point LMFAO i never really thought of protags as tanks but i can see it now

...it looks like they're considering getting on a train in the subway
