I guess it counts for Ace Attorney as well. The first three games are a trilogy, and each game has its own music for important parts. The last bit in the last game, instead of playing the music from that game, it plays music from the first game.

I started replaying Okami again and I wish you could draw the sun before the game prompted you to.
The game comments on it if you try it but they even state it's a power you've had from the start so that riles my autism a bit.

HOWEVER I thought it was pretty clever that Sunrise being Ammy's innate skill is used to allow you go full goddess-mode to beat your other brush skills out of Yami though

they actually had that in Phantasy Star 3.

Basically at the start of the game, you sell all your shit, buy an item that escapes from dungeons, and when you get thrown into jail and use it this happens.

and this is the rest of the dialogue:

You clearly haven't watched or read past the first arc then. Continue, Hisoka is one of the best characters in the series.

>>280723475
He's a recurring villain whose goal is to fight strong opponents. He's after Gon cause he sees that he's highly skilled. So it's a situation where he doesn't want Gon killed by anyone other than him, so he helps out on occasion.

Melee attacks that are more than just elbows, knives, or generic gun bashes in shooting games.

Don't give a fuck what anyone says about Resident Evil 4,5,6 and/or Army of Two, but it's so incredibly satisfying to scoop slam a mother fucker into the concrete. Something about throwing a heavy straight punch with Gorrilla Redfield. Something about using Huang Gai's musou in DW7/8 and he picks a faggot up, tosses them like 10 feet in the air, then jumps up and catches them and does a spinning piledriver that buries them in the ground.


"Realistic" stuff is great and I love it. Over the top melee moves are fantastic and it just makes me FEEL good. Anything other than generic knives/bash attacks.


Honorable mentions, Halo Reach back assassinations could be a quick and simple back slap insta kill, or your could hold the melee button down and do a flashy one-hit kill that had a flair like a jumping elbow drop or a backstab and toss. Battlefield 3/4 have the knife from behind assassinations/dog tag rip that just feels good to pull off. And fucking Titanfall, for the massive flop it was, is incredibly satisfying to run up behind some dumb nig and twist his head around.

Just press in the direction of Sam every time you attack and you'll accidentally parry almost all of his moves because he only has like one un-parryable attack and it's slow as fuck, and he's aggressive enough that he'll hit every parry window rather than causing you to miss-time one and be punished for it.

>enemies actually become scared of you the further the game progresses, going from "Who the hell is this guy?" to "Oh fuck it's him!"

let's not get too into this.
guy on top of the mountain in g/s is Ash from Yellow.
Pokemon Yellow was based on the anime. Ash started with Pikachu, you collected the three starters, you actually fought jesse/james throughout the game. The mountain guy has pokemon Yellow's team, even the Pikachu hasn't evolved yet.

I don't know, sounds cool. I was thinking of Legend of Legaia.

>At the start of the game they attack you on sight
>Now they back off when you see them
>Every 10 minutes all the ones that ran away attack you at once in a huge group

I thought it was cool. Easily implemented too, they just stayed away from you until their numbers hit a certain limit and then bumrushed you. The groups kept on getting larger and larger, and the time spent exploring without battles got longer as well. It was all worth it when hundreds of them suddenly pour into your sight range in a neverending wave for your to massacre. Well implemented difficulty spike I'd say.

SaGa Frontier has Blue and his twin brother Rouge.

Blue's quest is basically to become the strongest mage ever, and part of that is to kill Rouge since their power is essentially split in two. Rouge himself is a recruitable secondary character in all the other characters story.

During Blue's story, if you somehow lose the boss fight vs Rouge the game doesn't end; you simply continue the game as Rouge since the two have merged.

>enemy footsoldier drops a letter he wrote to another soldier

>expresses concern that the antagonist is just using them as fodder to buy time

>>280709287
That sounds like shit.
>The MC is a pussy who only gets his ass saved, because luck would have it that his previous nemesis interfered. Otherwise he would have died.
>MC is such a fuccboi, two villains own his ass.
This reeks of JRPG garbage, where the MC is a wuss.

It does the same thing. I'll have to try out Legaia though, thanks.

I know for sure both Ninja Gaiden and NG2 both do this. Those poor black spider ninjas.

What game? It's obviously a JRPG.

>you fuck up and die
>can hear the enemies talk about it if you wait instead of reloading/restarting right away
>they say shit like "That's never happened before!" and "They can die!?" etc
