The problem with giving a plus and a minus to either using the power or not, is that then the choice doesnt really matter. The choice simply becomes a matter of aesthetics, which is one of my biggest problems with modern games tbh.
If the player refuses to use the demon arm the game should be considerably more diffificult, without any gameplay rewards apart from not being consumed by it.
But this is only my personal preference of course!
Xenogears hasnt aged too well i'm afraid xD it has a low start and some really frustrating dungeon design and text speed, but if you can look past that you have the game with the most deep and beautiful story ever. And the soundtrack is godly.
Ah Suikoden II is just one of the best games of all time haha, damn that Luca Blight boss fight is one of the most epic battles in any jrpg ever.
And what do you guys think about narrative? do you like more games that give you lots of information and kinda "take your hand" or games with more vague narratives like the souls series does?

Quote:I do like the idea of a game with multiple outcomes to the story though. I never played any of the Bioshocks unfortunately. I've heard they're amazing though. I kinda fell out of playing the newer games and dont even own any consoles anymore. And I always wanted to play Xenogears but never did back when it was out. I got into emulators last year and tried to play it but the emulator kept screwing up on me. If you guys like classic JRPGs theres one I never played when it came out called Suikoden 2 which is really good story wise and game play. Another old game thats a new favorite of mine is Tactics Ogre. Great tactical game with a very good story.
