AVGN parroting retards don't recognize the pure gaming Ludo that is Silver Surfer

That soundtrack, Jesus Christ.

Name a NES game with better music, I dare you. No expansion audio allowed.

Yeah it's just you

Also, some might argue that, the point is that your skill as a player doesn't matter, but the skill of your in game character does, hence the role playing.

To that I ask, how is that fun?

If I chose my character stats at the start of the game and they just stuck at that level, I could understand the role playing potential and replay value, but as it is, your forced into grinding enemies and just doing the same thing over and over to make numbers bigger in order to progress or learn things. It's not because you unconvered some secret that made you smarter, or that you found some weapon through doing a puzzle that made you stronger, it's literally just grinding until you have enough XP to level up.

I like grinding, it's almost relaxing for me.

Do what you want (you will anyway)

Why don't you emulate my dick up your ass?

I named Frog Kunt in Chrono Cross one time because I thought it was a funny word but didn't know what it was. My friend borrowed it and he told some other kids and they thought I was a weirdo. I've used the default names ever since.

SMT 1 lets you name your MC, his bitch and the alignment heroes.

>>3992038
First time playthrough is always with default names, second go around is where you start to fuck around.

Famitsu is the IGN of Japan. They give scores on reputation alone. They're a joke of a publication.

Even the Japs looked down on 2D games with SNES like graphics.

Their old website. Archive didn't save a few pages. Are they just gone forever?

They ran a score contest. Are these scores any good? Prizes were iMac G3 for first, minidis players for 2-3.

Its a pretty good game. The camera angles are pretty bad and disc 2 is a mess. But it has great music, really fun gameplay and an interesting story. I'd say most of the hype is nostalgia, but if you like psx rpgs, you should really dig Xenogears.

I guess if you should know anything, its that there are a decent bit of missable items throughout the game. Most of them don't matter, but if you're a completionist it might perturb you later on finding out.

>>3991928
I'm not too anal about getting everything. I just want to enjoy it.

Hype can't be nostalgia. Hype is something marketing and media does.

Too bad it has a superior PC Engine CD version

Der Langrisser has one of the best branching paths I've ever seem, puts even wrpgs to shame, but I still like the light path route better in this one.

>>3991678
>puts even wrpgs
Hahahaha, no.

I'm just going to apologize in advance for all the shitty responses you are most likely about to get.

>>3991298
Use fraps, record audio with audacity, add commentary to video with windows movie maker.

I dont know of anything besides Camtasia which is only free for 30 days. You're probably better off asking the technology board.

Hope everything turns out well for the both of you.

Treasure of the Rudras is a game with cool ideas, but it's not great. It's just got some interesting systems in it to go along with its very nicely animated sprites. I don't think I've ever seen anybody praise it super highly.

You should try Live A Live, OP. It's got way more variety.

>>3991245
I really wanted to like it because the mantra system is great, and I love the sprites, but the story is too bloated and the pacing is terrible. Too many walls of exposition that tell me a bunch of shit I already learned in another scenario. May just be the translation though. I dunno. Maybe I'm just burned out on games with random encounters after all these years.
>You should try Live A Live
I tried it out a long time ago but never could get into it. Might give it another shot.

Isometric view with controls that still follow top-down directions. Garbage.

>Who thought this was a good idea?
A person who looked at the Mega Drive D-pad and realised it was practically made for isometric games.

> any tips other than "practice,
Yeah, a lot of impossible looking jumps are much easier than they look. You'll try to do crazy twists and turns in the air only to eventually find that what you needed to do was jump in a straight line.

>>3991104
It works fine, just takes some time to adjust to it. Its different, sure, but its not broken by any means.

Its a real solid overlooked title that just needs a little bit of investment. Once you get the hang of that, its really solid.

Love the title.

I'm getting to old for this underage millennial/gen Y slang shit.

yeah, wtf is fungiest, the fun and ugliest?? it would be ok if the fuckin words made sense.

He wants the game that has the greatest degree of relation to mushrooms

>>3990696
the entire aesthetic of the game is fucking cozy, gen 2 has its own feel, and gens 3 onward swap out the comfy for borderline anime characters and graphics you could see in any other game. Most Pokemon "fans" nowadays only like waifushit and competitive play, it makes me sick

I never could get into this series, it's so boring. I feel like a contrarian whenever people talk about GameBoy RPGs and I like a bunch except Pokemon.

>>3990720
That's because you are boring.

>>3990423
I totally would've watched this if I were a bit older than 7 months. I miss when there were television shows, like this one, that felt as if they were made for kids and by kids.

>>3990423
Man. Video Power wasn't on in my area. At least I don't think it was, I never saw it until the internet age. But I do remember watching Stunt Dawgs and Power Rangers before school. Remember kids, Sizzle's so hot she's even got a flame.

>>3990423
Man, I wish there was like a dedicated twitch stream just for old 90s cartoons and shit. Would be great for background noise and stuff.

I was surprised by how hot she was. I'm willing to put up with a lot when it comes to good animation.

>>3990132
>13 kids and still looks the same
yes

May I know the name of my next fap?
