Fuck fighting games, why is the community hell bent into bodying newbs into submission?
I just wanna play a mindless button masher with pretty graphics alone

What communities? This is /vr/ bro. Back in /vr/ times, the "communities" were whatever guys you'd meet at the arcades, or your own group of friends. There was no Facebook, no Twitter, no EVO, no internet drama.

Best way to enjoy retro fighting vidya is get a friend (or more), grab a few beers, sit on the couch, and have fun.

Playing through Fightcade online is not really /vr/-related.
For the most part, the online experience is not /vr/-related period, and big tourneys like EVO aren't either.

You probably don't want to hear this, but if you want something more friendly to new players, play a new fighter. The player base will be a lot larger and have more players of your skill level to play against.

Pretty much anyone still playing retro fighters has been playing them for years so unless you're really skilled there's not much point. It's just as boring to fight someone much lower than your skill as it is someone much higher.

Also if you want a mindless button masher, Beat em Ups might be the better genre. Button mashing doesn't actually work in any fighter unless your opponent is equally bad.

Started a new game of Vagrant Story. Just got to the first workshop. Any ideas on what to do with my current weapons? Should i dump some or combine? Maybe need to find more?

just repair them
try to get a quad shield though, you should be able to make one by now

you'll get to another workshop soon enough where you'll be able to combine bronze and iron equipment into hagane
>>
>>2858790
Haha just got one then. Good timing
>>
>>2858780
Without looking at guides (I never did), you can try to combine 2 pieces of equipment of the same class/part and close stats to each other, and generally, the outcome will be better than both pieces used.

Combining strong pieces with weak pieces yields a shitty/average outcome that's worse than the stronger you're combining. And thus a waste.

That Soul Kiss you got there, has an S in the icon that stands for silver. Silver does awesome damage against undead. It will be useful for most of the game, only upgrade it if the outcome is better, and also silver material.

Also, keep a crossbow in stock for destroying far away boxes.

Turok: Dinosaur Hunter is coming to Steam in less than 48 hours. But Turok 3 is best Turok, and my body is ready for a remaster to fix the many, many bugs and missing features.

Turok 3 > Turok: Dinosaur Hunter > Turok 2 > Turok 2008 > Watching Paint Dry > Turok: Evolution.

A lot of folks will argue that Turok 2 is best Turok. They might have a point, but how many people actually FINISHED Turok 2? A vast majority of players give up somewhere along the line. The amount of backtracking and keyhunting is obscene.

They've stated that other sequels are on the table if 1 and 2 are successful.

I thought that the lower face half of Link, when he's riding towards the camera, was a big, fat, wobbling nose.
Also, thought Impa was a guy. The sprite doesn't really look female.

Realistically, what chance would the M2 have had against the Playstation and the N64?

It wouldn't have been against the PS1 or N64, it would have gone against the PS2 and other non retro consoles.
>>
>>2856025
Panasonic was aiming for a 97-98 release date before they canned it, so it would have come out before the Dreamcast, even if it was a 6th gen machine.

In terms of graphics, it was definitely above the N64, but weaker than the Dreamcast.

console itself aesthetically reminds me of something SNK would do

No. Emulators don't have a delay, your USB controller does regardless of what program you use it with.

Not cater to casuals. So nothing really.

Can't even name a non Nintendo AAA game that didn't have DLC within the first week released in like the past 10 years.

What is the Select button?

It's like the Scroll Lock on a keyboard: a vestigial element that long overstayed it's need or relevance.

Do you really want to give up your buttons? If you let them take away a button it's only a matter of time before they take them all and everyone is playing on touch screens.

Final Fantasy 4, 6 - 9
Legend of Dragoon
Chrono Trigger
Chrono Cross
Dark Cloud 1 and 2
Shadow Hearts 2

I assume you've played Skies of Arcadia. If you liked that (and you should!) you should check out Panzer Dragoon Saga. Even though it's by a different team it feels like a proto-Skies in a lot of ways (namely the flying around and the aerial combat).

Why do peaple think the N64 is worth money?

Those games and console are maybe $40- $60 today. And you sold it to family.

Just fuck off.

Guys what are some good turn based combat WRPGS?

In style of Paper Mario, Earthbound, Dragon Quest, etc, but not actually JRPG.

What are some great, perhaps different and experimental, turn based combat systems?
I'm very interested in such combat, but I find most JRPGs digusting because of their art and/or story.

Thanks

Baldur's Gate

Wizardry is obviously the prime series for the classic row based combat. In the earlier games there isn't much story or art to worry about either.
>>
Most Infinity Engine games. Planescape is the exception, but you can play the whole thing without fighting anyway.

>RPG style
>Metroidlike or open world
>3D environment & controls similar to Lament of Innocence
>Beautiful graphics, level & enemy designs like Lords of Shadow 1/2
>Refined combat system like Devil May Cry 3
>Familiars like in Curse of Darkness
>Can wield & craft weapons/equipment like in Curse of Darkness
>Equipment changes appearance
>Protagonist is a Belmont
>Set in the original series' canon in a different era, i.e. 1800-1900's Europe

Thoughts?
