So were games just better 20 years ago?
I starting playing pic related again. I go through the Mega Man Legends games every few years during the summer and they are so refreshing. There is nothing like them. And its amazing to play these bright happy unique games during the time we live in. There is so much gloom and unoriginality in games and media. Will we ever go back to this purer time? A time when people actually put love and care into their games?
I get sad thinking we will never get another game like these. I need hope.

The age of pureness is over. The time of the Juden has come.

I just want my bright colored treasure hunting game back...
>>377634313
I do too anon, a time of pure bliss and interest.
>>377632368
Fuck yeah, MML, TMoTB, MML2 is the holy trinity of comfy.

Professionally produced games were better back then. It was a lot easier to find a quality game as a result. Games didn't require millions in adverts to standout from others so people experimented more as well.
We still have good games today, they just fly under the radar a lot of the time.

AAA games suck these days and there's no variety. The hope of gaming is literally indie games. /v/ might disagree but just like in that generation and those before it, there's 1 gem for every 20 games. AAA companies cannot risk making niche/unique games. Only indies can.

I played this for the first time today, and it was clunky, boring, and controlled like shit. Get a life, nostalgia niggers.

Kill yourself.
I want Tron Bonne to sit on my face

What's your favorite game you fucking faggot
>>377632368
MML isnt good. Like the gameplay is pretty bad. Should have made more 2D games instead.
>>377636596
Get a load of this faggot.
MML was perfectly fine for its time. They tried to take it back to 2D and failed miserably.
>>377636697
I disagree. Those tank controls aren't fine in the setting of the gameplay unlike RE.
>>377636782
You mean to tell me you weren't utilizing the lock on function?
>>377636596
>Should ha e made more 2D games instead
No no no no fuck anymore sidescroller shit for mega man we had enough of those, maybe another ZX game but that's it.

Of course, it was barely acceptable back then but nowadays its terrible that camera. The walls clip, megaman usses an alternative version of tank controls behind the back. Its terrible.
Hell freaking Zelda 64 aged better.

Honestly there was no standard with 3D games. I feel like the developers knew the movement was terrible. Notice how the enemies just "drop" bombs or don't attack straight at you.
>>377637231
Also just to finish my shitty rant. The game feels too easy. The enemies can't hope to attack you while you strafe. Poor enemies can't handle Megaman's horizontal movement and the enemies that can't be strafe turns megaman as a "tank". You stay in place and shoot. No movement and its boring.

Modern gaming is too western focused to ever get back to stuff like this, so no, enjoy your billion shitty open world games
>>377638957
I don't blame them. They want money and even Japanese want the Western market's money.
Fuck yes.
Not quite 20 years but I'm playing on a private, free, d2 server. No bots and better drops.

Are there any visual mods for D2?
I really want to go back and replay D1 and D2. D1 has a nice texture update and I think a widescreen mod. Curious D2 has similar? I just play mostly alone anyway so if it keeps me off servers I don't mind.

Not really. You can play HD at 1920*1080 but it just gives you a larger screen view.
>>377632368
>So were games just better 20 years ago?
Maybe, but the game you posted isn't an example of that notion. Anything Megaman Legends related is automatically garbage.
>>377640441
aged* garbage
