RPG Backtrack Episode 187: We're Going to War

The Langrisser series has only come across the Pacific legitimately on two occasions in different centuries, and neither is the high point of a venerable tactical franchise. Join us for a talk about its multifaceted components that includes extensive artwork discussion.

It's not what he's eating, but what's eating him that makes it ... sort of interesting.

    For the record, I have never played any of those games, but I wish I did. Boy, the soundtrack ROCKS!

    Finally getting caught up on this episode and so much of it is Phil reacting to disproportionate character art :)

    Add Langrisser to the long list of games I need to try someday.

    I really loved Warsong back then, even with the bad review, I did have to buy the new Langrisser on the 3ds, so they know we want more of that series! I really need to try the other one too, as they seem really good!
    Always enjoy all the experience in life, you might gain a level or two.

    Good episode! As far as monster hunter, it didn’t click with me at first either. I completely gave up on tri. I hope some people who dislike the series keep going and maybe they will fall in love too.

    And yes the movement system in dragon quest 11 is cosmetic for those who do want to move around, but it serves no real gameplay purpose.

    The list of games I would rather play than subject myself to any more of Langrisser after my review is quite long, and may actually include The Dark Spire.

    Suffice it to say, my only disappointments on seeing it hit Metacritic's Worst Games of 2016 were that they didn't quote me, and that there were four games that were worse.
