Kyosho:

Fairy Fencer F? 90% sure I’m right. Christ, could you have chosen a more obscure game? Heh. I KNEW I had seen it before, but definitely not played it. I remembered a video showing a clip of it on a channel I’m subscribed to on youtube about it coming out in English. It was seemingly forever ago. I spent about 25 minutes trying to find that video. Finally did. Is that cheating? Hrm.

The rules are void for any game with fairies in it.

I’ve had to look at outside sources before. I looked through games on Steam with the JRPG tag, saw that game even, and moved on. The Steam screenshots do not include the battle order menu, so I figured that was wrong.

So, no, looking for a youtube video you know had that game isn’t cheating IMO. Google Image Search, however, is.

I agree with this. Especially if it’s a game that you are pretty sure you know what it is, I think it’s okay to go look at product screenshots to double check. I looked at this game on Steam, and it’s weird to me because like Craig pointed out, this game doesn’t really resemble the image in any real way. I did a GIS though and sure enough, I guess that’s the right game. Weird. I imagine the number of people that played this on Qt3 is pretty small. :)

It’s not cheating, and you are right. It is indeed Fairy Fencer F!

This is indeed a Compile Heart game (bonus points to Otagan) and it shares its engine and many elements of gameplay with the Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth series. It’s a pretty fun game (I like it more than Hyperdimension Neptunia Re;Birth 1 so far), with a pretty good soundtrack (which includes the most western-sounding J-rock song I’ve ever heard), and it came out for the PC quite recently - in August - so I thought more people would know about it.

So congratulations, Kyosho, you got it! I honestly thought this would be easy to guess, but I suppose it was a bit more obscure than I thought it would be.

You’re right, the Steam page doesn’t show any “battle mode” screens. I guess they should. ;)

American Truck Simulator?

Kyosho · 2015-09-26T19:24:49.000Z

Negatory. I’ll give you guys a hint: That is the original resolution of the game, not a downsized or cropped image.

Juan_Raigada · 2015-09-26T19:36:30.000Z

Steel Batallion?

tfernando · 2015-09-26T19:40:52.000Z

Streets of Sim City? Never played it, but those look like 3 identical wooden buildings grown up next to each other

rhamorim · 2015-09-26T19:42:37.000Z

Outlaws? :)

Kyosho · 2015-09-26T20:01:31.000Z
