I actually have played Persona 2 and The Witcher 1. Both are good, but overrated here.

>>385224092
Very accurate but I would replace Undertale with New Vegas

>>385224092
How is Bioshock 2 pretentious?

I can understand if you like DF, Planescape Torment, La Mulana or EYE. I played them and while they have definitive flaws, I can see what makes them enjoyable for people.
But the fucking Witcher 1 and Longest Journey? Those two are beyond irredeemable.
Fun story, I actually put Longest Journey in a laptop one summer I went on a trip to the middle of fucking nowhere without internet connection so I actually beat that game. And it sucks in pretty much every level. Puzzle design is nonsensical, visually is uninteresting, sonically is forgettable, the story goes absolutely everywhere and is the shallowest thing ever.
Withcher 1 is pretty much unplayable.

I unironically like Deadly Premonition. It's a bad game, but it's a great experience.

t. poser

The worst aspect of /v/'s taste is its regardless gravitation toward complexity. It doesn't matter how genuinely broken the core mechanics like moving and attacking are (where the game is 80% about moving and attacking) if it has a mildly interesting story-- by video game standards of course, meaning nothing. You'll see a majority of people bashing the all mobile games period, because how could a video game be good if it has a simple control scheme? That or the pure retardation of assuming every mobile game is a F2P Farmville type social cash shop grindan game. People with bad taste cannot comprehend how Super Mario Bros. 3 is better than all the games in that OP image-- it's just about running and jumping and power-ups! There's GOT to be nothing there, right? Right?

Yeah true but I hate having a backlog and my backlog is big enough right now

>>385223598
Yeah, this is largely accurate. They're mostly games with interesting concepts marred by shitty gameplay. The only ones here that I've played and actually beaten are Bloodlines and Witcher 1 (before the sequels were released). In both cases, my enjoyment of the writing and setting overpowered my distaste for the flawed gameplay and combat mechanics.

Planescape is one where I really loved the setting too, but the gameplay was just too shit to struggle through (I'm not a fan of the combat in the Baldur's Gate games either and this is significantly worse). I'd love to see a modern action RPG in the Planescape setting but Torment is one of those games where it's fans must be trying really, really hard to ignore how shit the actual gameplay is.

>"B-but the game is mainly just dialogue! Y-you NEVER have to fight if you don't want to!

Yes you fucking do have to fight, you nigger. And you know your combat system is shite when the best way to get through a dungeon is by running straight past the enemies until you get to the exit. Fuck you.

But Kings Field 1 is garbage, everyone knows 2 is the best.

If you didn't play these (Not badly aged, totally playable with 2017 standards) games already. You should either do it RIGHT NOW or kill yourselves.

Planescape torment is the best CRPG there is. And it's also the one that aged the best of all.

Vampire bloodlines is Deus Ex with vampires and waifus. It was technically ahead of its time which is why it's still pretty good right now.

>>385231474
I did the main story without a guide.
It took me 50 hours to do it, I had to use a guide for the hell temple tho

>>385231537
Yeah I agree. But the very first time you experience a META story in a videogame it hits you pretty hard. Undertale/Nier/Specops was probably the first for the majority of their players which is why it stuck with them.

999 still did it the absolute best though. It basically acknowledges the "META card trope" and instead goes meta on the meta which elevates it to a higher level.

>>385231273

It has a cool aesthetic and the combat is fun (at least for a bit). Besides that, it has 0 level design, completely pointless rpg stats, and its probably one of the most tedious grindy things ive ever played.

Crazy story, Deep lore, fun over the top gunplay, OP abilities.

It's like a group of friends got together and decided to all make a game with things they thought were cool and fun, not caring about balance or modern game design principles or anything you would find in a AAA game.

Why do you pick 3 nonsense words that randomly decide your stats instead of a normal character menu?
Because its cool.

Why do you have access to some of the strongest weapons at the very start of the game?
Because its fun.

Why is there an ability that just instantly kills even the strongest boss in the main game?
Because its cool.

Why can I jump as high buildings while gunning waves of enemy's down with a minigun?
Because its fun.

Dwarf Fortress is excellent I think you may just be bad at video games.

No. These were all different timelines Little akane looks through as a small child in a couple of minutes while almost burning to death in the incinerator room. The entire game you play as small akane looking through possible futures to try and find one where she gets to see the password to survive. There are no plotholes because none of the futures have happened yet she just sees the different timelines and picks the one from true ending to finally happen
