Steambots is the kind of game you might find at a dollar store, yet it has the power to change how you view RPGs. It’s a small game, but one that feels lived-in—filled with relatable nuances from everyday life. Your goal isn’t to be a hero; it’s to experience life as you see fit. No two playthroughs will ever be the same.
I know that in another universe, this game is well-loved and celebrated.
Steambot Chronicles, for its time, was an incredible RPG. It had your comfy aspects like furnishing apartments, doing labor with your mech to make money, and playing music from many musical instruments. You could be good or evil in the story. The characters are very likeable. Nadia Gifford did the singing for the songs and has a very beautiful voice. It's a game I'd love to see preserved but it's absolutely a lesser-known RPG from the PS2 era. I was sad when the sequel ended up getting cancelled.
A quaint little steampunk mecha adventure game that sadly never ran well on its original system, the PS2. I've never seen quite this mix of music, visuals, and gameplay. There's just nothing quite like it, and it's sad that it's been long forgotten by Atlus in favor of piles of Persona remasters.
i played this game off a demodisk from the playstation mag. I just had to have it and when I finally got it from gamestop it really opened my eyes to games being more then just about the gameplay it opened my eyes to care about the story.
A friend of mine absolutely loved this game after I loaned my copy to them. I feel that seeing it preserved on GOG, will in some small way also preserve their memory.
Sei que e bem possivel dele não vir a esta luz porem e um jogo sublime para mim mesmo que eu nunca tenha terminado por alguma força do destino eu gostaria de telo em algum lugar seguro e velo brilhar de alguma forma espero muito um dia velo nas lojas novamente
I don't think there's a game I'd like to see preserved more than this, as others have said here, it's not a huge game, but it more than makes up for that in sheer charm. In essence it's an RPG set in a late industrial era where the development of the automobile was superseded by the development of Trotmobiles (the titular steambot), large mechanized walkers that are used for everything from transport, to combat, to mining, to agricultural labor. It takes this premise and builds a genuinely unique take on an action rpg, whereby you drive around your Trotmobile using Katamari style controls, customize it with a large variety of parts including chassis, arms, and propulsion methods, and basically just kinda live in the world. There is a main story, but it's very easy to find yourself off the beaten track doing odd jobs for various people, vibing with the music minigame or any number of activities.
