I don't usually hate anything since I like to broaden myself to things I'm not used to, but if there's one series I just can't get into, that's gotta be fucking Fire Emblem.

God, what a miserable pile of boring games. I try so hard to get interested in the story and plot, I've even tried to replay some games again just to give them another chance, but then I realize it's all clichés after clichés with a pinch of Japanese tropes here and there sugarcoated as a plot, with characters that makes me want to just skip dialogue just to get on with it.

I wish I could say the series interests me, but it simply doesn't. Maybe I'm just not a fan of sRPGs in general or maybe I'm not a fan of the whole setting nor the characters (since I do feel that way more often than I should), but damn, man.

>>381599263

I'm not a huge Wipeout fan, but I did play Wipeout 2097 back in the day on my PS1 as a kid and found it really fun. But hasn't there been a shit ton of sequels since? How many games from 1 to Pulse? How long did it take you to figure out if it wasn't for you or not?

I'd say playing just one game (or 2 if the fanbase acknowledges the one you played has aged) is enough to give a series a chance.

Gameplay is by far Platinum's worst, quest design it atrocious, and good god is the open world so unfun to traverse. People claim that it gets good once your reach the second route but that wasn't true at all. You'll be going through the exact same monotonous gameplay, quests, and world with the only payoff being a few more crumbs of information regarding the story and lore with every consecutive playthrough.

By far my biggest buyers remorse this year.
>>
>>381600249
Yes, and most of that time is just walking around trying to explore the map to see where you cannot go and where you can get an item so you can progress past the place you couldn't go before. That isn't engaging.

The combat with the Djinns is cool but way too easy, way too much fucking dialogue for how simple the plot is and the emoticons and "choices" in it just slow it down even more. Puzzles are mostly just pushing stuff around.

That's only metroid 1 which literally is a maze. Metroid after that directs the player and upgrades them like any other game with powerup progression. You usually get powerups after bosses.

It's basically a non-linear run and gun game. A guess the appeal over a linear game is you have to find which direction to go next. The "good" part is rethinking old areas with new items, the best example being the ice beam. But there's really not enough stuff like that DESU. Ever since super we've been getting colored doors and special blocks instead of spacial reasoning.

Metroid isn't that time consuming though. If they hide the way to go, it's usually in that same room and you'll spend a few seconds checking surfaces. The games very rarely dead end you.

Golden Sun fan here, I can understand your complaints, to be honest, this game's not for everyone, it's either a "you love it or hate it" especially with the kind of long-winded dialogue it has. I did play it when I was younger by the time it released, so nostalgia plays a trick in that. Still, it's a very "basic" RPG with a interesting Djinn/summon system, even if it does come with the hindrance of making the battles overtly easy. I appreciated it for what it was and the artwork/sprite work, which pushed the GBA hardware.

I'm not sure if you ever tried Golden Sun 2, but it starts with you being in Felix's spot. You only find the original crew much later. It's not much different since it's a sequel.

I'd say to not bother with Dark Dawn. The game takes away a lot of the freedom the original two had after a certain point, which was a honest to god slap in the face to me at least. Neither the original crew's descendants interested me in the slightest. That early beginning is enough to make you pin point the entirety of it as THAT PART.

After playing Zero Mission and Fusion, Super just feels so bad in terms of controls and Samus's movement and responsiveness.

The reason I liked it so much was that it was a breath of fresh air to the genre. The combat took a while to get into, but it has a lot of customization that keeps it interesting. Music is good, though subject to taste, as are the graphics. The story is typical Squeenix off-the-wall stupid at times, but at least it had a neat setting. Too bad you didn't enjoy it. It's easily top 5 material on the system in my book.

I think so. The older stories aren't mind blowing stuff, but they aren't bogged down by stupidity and anime cliches nearly as much. They're very simple stories told well.

Unironically liked the first one
two was meh
but this was just a goddamn trainwreck.
Absolutely dreadful to play and never even bothered to finish my first playthrough. It has achieved meme status with my brother and I where i occasionally ask "yo wanna finally finish that co-op campaign?"

I didn't hate Bully, but it is severly overrated. A gimmicky, unpolished minigame collection where the openworld aspect feels tacked on and barren. The only more polished gameplay aspect is the combat, wich is incredibly simplistic. The music, setting, characters and general atmosphere were admirable but couldn't save the game as a whole for me.

I haven't gotten all that far, but Rune until now is incredibly boring.


>>381597251
Have you tried playing older PC fps games? >100 fovs are the rule and movement generally just as important as the shooting mechanics.
I had the same back when i played battlefield 1942 as a retarded kid and played goldeneye timesplitters and halo. Once i tried og doom on sourceports & quakelive when it came out and cranked up that fov and tried lower sensitivities i can't get enough of them.

Up to date mechanics are cool too, yeah. I don't like the method of rematches HGSS does, unless you consult a guide or comb every area of the game multiple times daily you aren't going to get all the numbers, and even then you have to call them at certain times for the rematches on top of that. I'd rather just have it like Emerald with everyone automatically being in Match Call and ready for rematches after the credits, or even Platinum with the simple daily sets.
>>
>>381610974
Fair enough. I'd only played G/S and Diamond before HG/SS so I don't have that reference to other systems. The wealth of new features on top of the old games plus the interaction between it and D/P coupled with my nostalgia really put HG/SS on a pedestal for me.

There are so many things wrong/bad/horrible with this game I could write a thesis on it.

DOOM 3 ruined the DOOM formula
Brutal DOOM is frankensteined together by a flaming faggot and every DOOM fan hate him, while it used some good elements (stolen from others) it's worst feature was what made the grounds for the gameplay of nuDOOM.
Gone is the exploring and tactical maps, replaced with corridors that lock when spawns of demons comes in waves.

All 3 of them, including Bloodborne. Fortunately my cousin is a big Dark Souls fanboy so I get to play them an extensive amount of time every time I come over. I've tried numerous times to like these, I've played them for hours, but I just don't get it. And I say this is as someone who loves Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts. People tell me it's the modern Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts, but I just don't fucking see it. It's hard yeah, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts or Ghosts 'n Goblins.

It's a bit tedious and the bosses aren't very good, but it wasn't bad either. An average game with a few neat things and a few tedious things.

Environmental Station Alpha is the game you probably haven't played and should as long as you weren't sold on Ori/Hollow Knight for the art. ESA is all about the actual gameplay and it's pretty fucking good. It has a pretty lengthy postgame as well (and that's the only place where I have criticism for the game)

I guess that makes sense in according with preferences, but I don't get why. The plot of one was very slow, lacked tension in most scenes for the first 4 days, and the characters were either irritating or Ronaldo-tier bad. The only ones I really liked were Atsuro and Black Frost.

It isn't surprising for the fact that it is a desert and it is low population towns along with long rides in between towns. It isn't as great as many people claim it is since it is just getting from one end of the map to the other, then shooting a bunch of dudes, but I was actually pulled into its open world. Maybe because SoCal is a desert and some of those open places are relatable and peaceful to me.

There are plenty of games released in the last few years which are great, if you look outside of the Nintendo system library.

Alien Isolation
Rising Storm 2
Men of War: Assault Squad 2
Shadow Warrior 2
Call to Arms
Total War: Warhammer
Bloodborne
Nioh
Yakuza 0
Nier Automata
Shadow Tactics
Dishonored 2
Xcom 2
Dues Ex: Mankind Divided
Age of Decadence
Hitman 2016
Doom 2016
Wolfenstein: The Old Blood
Earth Defense Force 4.1
Underrail
Expeditions Conquistador
Legend of Grimrock
Day of Infamy
Wargame: Red Dragon
Ratchet & Clank Remake

I think that is all recent enough and came out in the last few years, if you want to go back you could add RO2/Rising Storm 1. Hard Reset, Shadow Warrior 1, Insurgency, Natural Selection 2 as well I guess.

You're assesment of the combat is right, but Demons Souls has the worst combat in the series. Demons Souls has great atmosphere, boss design, and level design but with everything else you want to check out the other games. I would try it again and not make your judgement of how "hardcore" the action is. If you really want to focus on combat, try BloodBorne or DS3

I wouldn't say "hated" but I really didn't enjoy it as much as I thought it would, seeing as how a ton of people on /v/ love it so much. Clunky controls, hard to follow story, cheesy voice-acting (which is sometimes a positive), I mean it just sorta felt like a super-standard beat 'em up with a needlessly complicated story. Do the sequels get any better? I played a bit of the second game, and it just felt like only a minor improvement over the first game.

Same series here, but for a different reason: it feels like a slog.

I played Awakening on American "Hard" (which I think is Japanese normal), got bored halfway through. Then emulated FE7...I got farther, but still didn't finish.
All the missions feel too long if you're trying to preserve everyone AND hit all the shops/chests before moving to the next map (there's no inbetween areas in older games). Missions are either long and easy, or long and kind of tedious, but then after someone dies you lost like 40 mins of progress.
I don't have the patience and simply don't enjoy it after long enough.

The sequels improve the combat, but the story beats are pretty similar. It's basically an old-school yakuza movie in game form, so if you don't like the spirit behind the first game I don't think you'd like the rest. They do become more silly over time though

I had the same for JSR
Beat it, jetted it. While i liked the idea of grinding/platforming/tagging, the cat and mouse with police and everything stylistically about it, the controls and general set-up of the game felt mostly lacklustre, poorly executed or frustrating.

JSRF i at first thought wasn't as cool looking as the original but i quickly warmed up to it as a slightly alternate thing. But most importantly, the gameplay was a ton more enjoyable for me.
The pacing is a lot more chill, less repetitive and timed events, controls are a lot more responsive, timed stunts give the game a lot more flow instead of just spamming jump, challenges that actually push you to do fun crazy shit, a much higher emphasis on exploration and platforming.
I played it last year and it honestly was one of the most positive and enjoyable experiences i've had playing games at that time.

The only gripe i have is that some of the challenges you have per district can be pretty damn vague and obscure. Not sure if this was supposed to be a puzzle element or just poor translation, but i looked up a bunch of those when they made no sense or caused me to trial and error too much.

Needless to say the music is fucking sweet too.
And if you do give it a chance, play it on the OG xbox. Playing it on 360 backwards compatability can cause some really annoying slowdown in some levels that will fuck up your stunt timing.

It wouldn't have gotten the recognition if it wasn't one Japanese guy that distributed it for free. It is a fairly bland action platformer with too many story sequences that halt the pacing of the game.

Every Final Fantasy game
I understand that the story is supposed to be good, but its almost always THE FATE OF THE WORLD RESTS IN OUR HANDS! BUT FIRST WE MUST GRIND!
Having to grind in order to proceed takes me completely out of the story and hype.

>>381614650
My issue with Monhun is how much the grind escalates and how monsters just drag on and on and on. It contradicts the whole weighty, slower combat. At the end of the day you only felt you took down a monster not because you hit it really fucking hard with an immense chunk of whatever material your weapon is, but because you took forever tracking it down and waiting for openings while hopping between areas.

I just can't take the art.
Zelda is suppose the be an epic adventure of being brave, becoming a man, and more.

Playing in a shitty cartoon world, with poorly drawn unproportional characters, as Link with cat eyes, neon green sleeves, no neck, watermelon head, little legs in white tights, with little boots was and is ridiculous.

Toon Link is the cancer killing zelda.

It's a great game, NOT phenomenal, but great when it came out. Really the SNES was having a curtain call and everyone was pretty jazzed about the next gen at that point.

The only decent thing about 6 was Kefka related, the rest was generic and boring fantasy bullshit.

7 was retarded as fuck and written by 13 year olds but it was a thousand times more memorable.

8 should've been refined and polished with less focus on romance and more on time paradox / europeanism, and it would be 10/10

I agree. The dungeons were pretty bland outside of one in the forest which you had to go into the forest and drop down to other segments of the dungeon. Lacks the exploration of the first Zelda game, lacks the challenge of the second, and its dungeons are inferior to Link's Awakening.

Depends why you hated it.

The appeal of Metroid isn't challenge. If you want challenge, you play something like DMC3 on Dante Must Die difficulty.

Not everyone prefers high-octane action movies; some people would rather sit back and chill with a nice mystery & intrigue film.

There is a reason why even most FE fans hate Awakening and Fates

If you really want to try to get into FE, you should start with FE7 or Path of Radiance on the gamecube (easily emulated with Dolphin)

Awakening and Fates are full of so much waifu garbage that its hard to even play them without completely skipping all dialogue and ignoring the story, and they made the gameplay so shitty in Awakening that its impossible to stay interested for any reason, at least Fates kind of has decent maps and shit, but they fucked with the mechanics and made it really frustrating for weird reasons.


FE7 really is the best place to start with the franchise

You are not alone.
It is god awful.
Shitty story, corny as fuck, shitty gameplay, why the fuck can you not point your gun faster?!, and I just-don't-caaaaaaaaaaaaaaare.

That's because OoT's Link was low poly and chunky, any proper rendition like artwork or the remake's model achieves the skintight look and is consequentially really fucking gay. SS's baggy pants were the best solution.

Aquaria: Played it a few months ago and it is boring to look at and the way you control your character is annoying. People actually consider this a good Metroidvania?

Final Fantasy 4: I don't hate this game, but it's definitely overrated. At least by normies, I haven't seen much shilling of it on /v/. I could not handle all the stupid enemies in the last dungeon and just ran from each encounter.

Legend of Zelda: This guy covers most of my complaints about this game https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ySSq2d5mKE
I think I'm starting to appreciate things like "immersion" less and less if the game just constantly frustrates me.

FF4 is really only popular in Japan, it's FF7 and FF6 that are popular amongst normalfags. Also the DS version is much harder than the original, and most other Final Fantasy's for that matter.

I don't know why people clamor so hard over it.
Maybe its because I didn't have a snes growing up, I was born in 1991, and all I had until 98 was a gameboy color, and I didn't play ALttP until I was 16.

I honestly like the original over ALttP.
I think LA is so much better than all the Zelda's before it.

When we are talking about challenge we aren't clamoring for Gradius III arcade. We just want a reason to continually play. Something that actually engages us, keeps us on our toes. Tricky platforming, clever puzzles, interesting enemies with good patterns. Super Metriod doesn't offer that. I can get more challenge out of the SNES Mario games or the Genesis Sonic games than in Super Metriod.

Surprisingly people that play video games like to play a game and when there isn't much to play with or it isn't interesting they might not enjoy it.

If you want mystery and intrigue play something like Myst.

Thanks, anon, but i did play FE7. The gameplay was much better, but it still felt like a slog, got about 2/3 of the way through.

The one thing about the game that pissed me off more than RNG, was how recruitment works:
>it's obvious who can be recruited, because some mook or rando on the map talks to themselves
>At first, you just need your lord to talk to them
>them for most of the game you have to talk to them with a certain character...good luck guessing
>like the second Pegasus Knight, she's the sister of the first one and this is the first time we hear about it
>the fortune teller gives you a hint, but her early game advice is useless and a waste of money, so you stop listening to her early on

Yeah, it can be a bit tedious.
I missed a bunch of units on my first run because I skipped a lot of dialogue as a kid and didn't bother looking anything up, but that just kind of adds to the replayability in my opinion.
Its fair if you don't like the game though, its not for everyone. Just figured I should recommend FE7 just in case Awakening or Fates were your only exposure to the franchise.

The most overrated SRPG ever. What is even the strategy? Using small groups of units to gang bang another small group of units one by one or just autism grinding jobs to get certain skills? It has some bare bones strategy that almost any of its complexities can be out right ignored if it even had anything like elemental boosts on certain panels or certain height advantages on terrain because it just didn't matter in the end since your characters just eventually outstripped the enemies.

It's also dreadfully slow.

I view it as being a different take on kanto/johto, because it sure didn't capture the vague atmosphere my nostalgia ascribes to GSC. Hell, it doesn't even evoke it. And yeah, that may just be me growing up, but look at how the poke gear went from being some weird high tech device you'd expect from japan to a boring ass cell phone; that's exactly the kind of change that made it lose that weird mix of turn of the century modernness and mysticism and mystery that made the originals so interesting to me as a kid.

Hated super metroid?

Yeah if you don't like the genre, sure thing I can definitely understand.

But liking the genre and then hating on the best one?

Metroid 2 is the only dud out of the whole series, metroid is golden.

As long as you like the genre.

Give me some valid criticisms of Super Metroid. Only thing I can think of off the top of my head is walljumping possible and the fact upgrades are not tracked when completed.

Combat is fine for a platformer, not only that it has great tools for exploration like the spider ball, grapple hook and friggin x-ray visor.

Atmosphere is stunning with great pixel art and a videogame marvel of it's time.

But again, some people who play call of duty or other games in recent years see us talk about it on here. Then proceed to play it.

Then proceed to complain about it's "Shit graphics, controls, combat". Fucking retards have no idea what a platformer is and have no appreciation for 2d games in general unless they are those indie games with fake old graphics.

Or most of you will shit on it just because it is popular.

>>381634201
>Combat is fine for a platformer
No it isn't. Most of the enemies are lame, most have very basic behaviors, they are mostly in the way for you to shoot or you to just run or jump by and they miss you. Running around and shooting them isn't satisfying, and the diagonal aiming wasn't implemented well compared to other games in which you ran and gunned.

Have you actually played many 8 and 16 bit action platformers? There is a lot more care with where enemies are at in regards of where they are in the level and possibly what other enemies they are coupled with. Sometimes an enemy near a ledge you have to get to can make things a bit more intense, or moving platforms, possibly while dodging projectiles as well.

Shit this isn't contra man.

Super metroid is an adventure game first off, while still being a platformer. It sets you off in a foreign world with unusual atmosphere.

The creatures were fine, all the bosses were cool. Had a great soundtrack, it is an absolutely surreal game that rarely any game can hold up to anymore.

If you honestly went into the game expecting contra well shit, sorry metroid isn't a one dimensional game where it focuses on enemy patterns and weapon drops. You play super metroid for the experience, which it exceeds most games on every level.

Those are some hot shit opinions you got there. Prefering games with inferior platforming, enemies, and enemy behaviors for an exploration type game.

They weren't. Most either made a b-line towards you once you triggered them or they walked on their set path. Doesn't help that most were uninteresting fuana.

I didn't go into Super Metriod expecting Contra, I went into it expecting something in which I explored a world but it is a world I'd want to explore due to interesting enemies and somewhat tricky platforming so it drives me to really want to see what is next. It doesn't grab you with its level design, it only does so for people with its graphics and music since it sets a certain mood. I can understand people like that but that doesn't mean it is among the top games ever, it is a very average game. It is competent, but it doesn't do anything game play wise that stands out.

Yeah, and the medusa heads always spawned from the furthest side of the screen and you had to take account of them spawning and their pattern and you could attack while jumping.

Though I can see why you enjoy Super Metriod because it doesn't present any situation that makes you stop and try to figure out the best approach to tackle it and possibly gain skill to push onto the next area.
>>
>>381635286

Early castlevania was fun stuff. When super came out they were like hey, lets copy this shit because it just makes a more full game experience overall rather than making artificial difficulty with infinite spawning enemies, set damage on creatures and cheap enemy locations.

As well as lets put fucking fleamen in this game, that take advantage of the fact that you can only whip forward. Guess fucking what, you know that whip you just fully upgraded, fuck you go back to your checkpoint with this shit ass whip.

Also, you lose all your lives? Fuck you go back to the start of the level.

Adventure games evolved games. Arcade games with artificial difficulty like the early castlevanias were shit, fun games but considerably shittier than the next generation of videogames.

>>381635913
Guacamelee. It has much more interesting platforming with often utilizing various skills that move you in certain ways along with a stamina bar so you have a budget on how to utilize those attack skills as aerial movement options for platforming. Sections with shifting planes with timed button presses on shifting planes along with wall jumps, and a much more fun combat with various enemies to fight and skills to utilize.

I already know the response to it since I know how it is perceived on /v/, but it is better than Super Metriod for the better platforming and combat which made it more fun to run around and explore the world to see what will happen next.

You guys are naming one game when I asked for multiple.

Guacamelee is a great game and arguably surpasses super in the gameplay department but absolutely nothing else.

Also, both of your games wouldn't even exist without super.

Hate is a little strong because the story, art, and music are top notch.
The problem is the gameplay itself is bad. The 3/4 camera angle fucks with my perception on a lot of its nonsensical levels and it not helped by the (beautiful) 2d sprite that make it hard to be accurate. I don't like how any of the weapons feel, they're all a little too slow while also being floaty. It all just feels very sloppy.

Transistor is a much better game imo.

>>381616190
I always found it to be a lot better with mods. It becomes a treasure hunting masochistic forest game when you amp bullet damage and AI accuracy/intelligence. Getting through a grueling firefight only to find out you were flanked by some silent asshole who snuck around you while you were busy screaming is simultaneously infuriating but humbling.

I'm probably bias as I've been playing the STALKER games off and on for a few years now, but I really enjoy them. They definitely need mods though, as Vanilla they're kind of painful.
>>
>>381615676
>Lackluster SSG

You didn't get to see it upgraded then, when it becomes the Hellfuck Destroyer.

Honestly, though, once I got the upgraded SSG I barely used anything else. I didn't realize until a second playthrough how much fun all the other weapons were as well. The new DOOM trailers showed a lot of weapon switching, but it wasn't until I tried it myself until I realized how fun it actually was. But I can admit that starting out in the game is kind of boring/slow, it doesn't really get going until like the fourth/fifth level when they say "fuck it' and start hurling shit at you properly.

>As well as lets put fucking fleamen in this game, that take advantage of the fact that you can only whip forward. Guess fucking what, you know that whip you just fully upgraded, fuck you go back to your checkpoint with this shit ass whip.
Yeah you know, you have to know how the enemy behaves so you don't get damaged but also able to kill them as well before they become a handful. It is an interesting enemy because it is faster than the other enemies, faster than you, and seems slightly more erratic.
>Also, you lose all your lives? Fuck you go back to the start of the level.
I'm use to starting the game over from level 1. I think people have a different mindset these days than before. When I got a game over I just turned off the game, played something else, or did something else. Then came back to the game tomorrow. Due to how video games modernized people sit down and try to progress as much as they can. They want to get somewhere and stay there. These older games are like an hour long, often shorter. You don't need to beat it in that one sitting the first time you played it. It will be there tomorrow, it won't take you all day to do one new run of the game from level 1. There is nothing bad about that game over, just come back another time.

>What's so fun about snappy perfect controls, two or three movement speeds at best and double jumps to keep you from failing?

About your second point.

If videogames progressed that way they would be even shittier now than ever. That is an arcade method of playing a game, it is to do the least amount of work for the most payoff (similar what they have been doing forever) but taken to the extreme.

Game takes an hour to beat but due to artificial difficulty which I stated makes it take considerably longer.

You are replaying old content because they made the game to be played that way.

Adventure games are where it's at.
>>
>>381636445
I don't play too many games in the genre. Just here and there. Fact is that a lot of them are indie games and I am not interested in ALL of them. I played a bunch of the Metriodvania ones, maybe because they were easy to get into since they aren't hard games and got burned out. Symphony of the Night, Portrait of Ruin, Aria of Sorrow, they are standard games, but the platforming is often bland and often times you just go through hallways with enemies in them in which you knock them out one at a time.

With that said, I tend to appreciate more linear action platforming games more and is probably one of the biggest reasons why I enjoy Guacamelee because even though there was some exploration there wasn't as much back tracking due to once exploring an area to get a skill or beat a boss there was always a route that quickly looped you back to a key area in which you can start to progress to the next area. It was very streamlined when it came to its progression.

Same. I mean, I liked it, but after playing a bit of 3 and all of 4, I wasn't really in any mood to continue with Gen. I know it had some new monsters, I actually did play a bit of it and there were some I liked, but I'm just not driven to get into it for some reason. I'm actually glad World is gonna have a mostly new roster of monsters, though there are some I had fun fighting repeatedly, namely the Desert Seltas Queen, Seregios, and Snowbaron Lagombi.

It doesn't make a whole lot of sense, I played maybe 200 hours of MH4U and yet I've logged 3000 hours on PSO2, and I still have fun with several of the bosses and finding ways to challenge myself. Maybe MH monsters are just a bit samey, or maybe I just didn't like starting over. I got no idea.

Today's standards are streamlined. "Responsive" platformers are a chore to play.
>>
>>381637306
It isn't artificially difficult, it is just difficult because you are introduced to new scenarios due to level lay out and enemy arrangements you haven't gotten use to yet or have yet to experience. It is expected that you will die because you aren't expected to know how the game fully works on your first play through. You might have a general concept of how it works and you can get a level or three into the game. Though when you get further into the game the game demands more from you and you have to meet those demands.

On playing previous levels, it makes the player also want to try new things. Maybe there is something they can do to kill the boss faster, or they got the timings down on the enemies or how the platforms rotate that the player can now pass those sections quickly. Maybe there is a way for them to net extra lives due to their performance in the game that they can carry over to that spot they are having trouble.

Sonic Team happened. Instead of translating Sonic to 3D, they went with this bizarre cinematic platforming hybrid with terrible collision and camera stuck in development hell for far too long.

There are no caves and it might as well not even have a time limit (if you collect all the fruit the time limit is 99 days, far longer than anyone would need) so the game has no challenge at all. Flying Pikmin can easily break many puzzles. Rock Pikmin are completely invulnerable to many bosses' attacks.

It's a bizarrely linear game compared to the first two. In the first two, the means of progressing was to collect things from the explorable areas, but in Pikmin 3, the goal is to get to the next boss which is always marked on the map. Exploration has next to no value.

The areas are much larger than in the first two games, but they're less dense. Being able to remotely direct the three playable characters, combined with more automated Pikmin actions, reduce the amount of time spent actually playing the game.

TL;DR: It's too short, easy, and linear.

I get most of the things in this thread, but hating on Mario64 for its controls is absolutely mind-boggling.

I replayed it a few months ago for the first time in 15 years and it felt way better than I even remembered.

I agree it's average, but I'd been waiting for it for so long that I tricked myself into enjoying it more than I should

I only played them recently, and DS1 is now absolute top 10 material. If you can get into it, the atmosphere is fantastic, and as I tried to look into the plot and lore as I got through the game I realized I'd gotten way too emotionally invested in this shit. Now I can't stop replaying it. It's not even as hard as people meme it to be as long as you've got two functional neurons, it's just really satisfying to be able to beat an area and slowly figure out what the everloving fuck is happening around you.

I couldn't get into it either. After I got to the Castle where Kefka makes his appearance I just lost interest and gave up.

why is this game considered a masterpiece
The levels and bosses are really short and the levels are basic
the graphics are a nice little novelty, but they make the hitboxes vague

I really don't understand why this is a snes must play

This, how anyone can enjoy an adventure game as punishingly linear as this is beyond me. I just want to go over there an- NO you have to wait until we tell you to go over there, stop trying to have fun and enjoy the game the way WE intended for you to, you can only have Nintendo condoned fun and that fun can only come after we painstakingly walk you through a dozen tutorials about how you're supposed to go about having our prescribed form of fun, and don't try to be cute about it you will only be playing this game in the most boring way possible in the same order as everyone else.

Worst Zelda and ruined the franchise for years. Thank god BotW saved us from the "OoT is good" meme so we could finally get back to the actual good games like Zelda 1.

Transistor's problem is that realtime melee combat is useless and the only way to stay ahead is to spam Plan() and dash away from everything. Bastion's problem is that shield and lock are the same key, and that the lock targetting is retarded.

it's astounding how a platformer can be so niche and inaccessible

>>381600403
I just started this an hour ago and have no idea why people compare it to Dark Souls. it's not even similar to Salt and Sanctuary. it's a simple platformer with combat like Ori.

I feel bad for people for people who can't get interested in axiom verge, hollow knight, and ori all together.
I have a hard time not being interested in metroidvanias. Inexistence and owlboy are probably the only ones that couldn't grab me of recently. Recently playing through the metroid prime trilogy and I have to say 2 echoes is probably the best in the trilogy.
Why do my game opinions differ so much from the masses?

dont get me wrong, I do like to play old games, I do like to test by myself /v/'s recommendations, I can appreciate old games and their value at the time, I am patient person

but took me half hour to realize that there's absolutely nothing fun about this game

If it weren't already a decade old I would still call it one of the greatest things Squeenix has done lately. The combat doesn't work out for everyone, but I didn't have issues with the touchscreen controls, and I ended up enjoying the music and story.

>but took me half hour to realize that there's absolutely nothing fun about this game

I'm not surprised. It took me about 20 minutes to realize Deus Ex was a piece of shit too. Then it took me a few threads on /v/ and several more hours of playing to realize I was mistaken and Dues Ex is a goat game.

I can't believe you never actually read a /v/ thread about Dues Ex anon. Aside from some hipsters everyone hates Liberty Island and Battery Park. They are just shit levels because you have no abilities. The good thing about Dues Ex is the amazing level design, and the augs you get, which helps you make more uses out of the level design. Without these two it's just a clunky stealth game and an outright bad shooter.

Neither the story or the gameplay is good at the beginning. Story gets good around Lebedevs Jet, I'd say maybe an hour in. Gameplay starts to get better around then too. But it doesn't truly shine until you get to Hong Kong which is maybe 4-5 hours in. Once you get there, it's goat for the rest of the game.

It's just those first few hours are suffering and shit.

I have a weird relationship with HGSS. On one hand, GSC is my least favourite set of games solely because the distribution of monsters is bad and the level scaling during the adventure is worse. HGSS at least alleviates the latter a little by making boss NPCs more competent as 4th gen games tended to do, and increases the levels of Kanto trainers across the board. The weird Safari Zone or the Pokewalker aren't great solutions to the former problem, though. And on the other hand, HGSS was made during 4th gen which means that while it has updated mechanics, the game speed is fucking molasses just like in DPPt and everything, EVERYTHING in the game becomes a slog.

I was feeling super burnt out on Pokemon after finishing HeartGold. Thankfully 5th gen was everything I ever wanted at that point.

>extremely boring battle system, even compared to other SNES RPGs
the battle system is one of the few things it actually has over a bog standard SNES JRPG, though. Scrolling odometer HP is a great way to introduce a realtime element to turn based battling.
They went on to improve it further in Mother 3 by introducing the sound combo system which increased the skill ceiling and added more choices to battling, but it's a shame the battle system isn't going to be used in any future games because Mother 3 ended up being so easy that it wasn't utilized to its full potential.
