Except for the majority of the time, because rentals or just because Vic Ireland fucking says so

Not always the case, OP. In fact sometimes the challenge is ramped up.

The "American" one is actually British. It's also '80s as fuck and I love it.

>fire the proof reader, this game is unplayable

When Cloud mentions you're limit break it almost is

>Attack while it's tails up
It attacks when you do that

Hahahaha holy shit

It definitely isn't 5 but /vr/ will tell you otherwise because this site is full of autistic weeaboo who like FF5 jut because it was originally Japan exclusive.

I'M THE NATURAL PLAYBOY IN TOWN!

WATCH OUT WORLDWIDE
HERE COMES TROUBLE

is this thread legit or is it bait?

>>3988294
You're posting a jrpg on a weeb site. Of course it's fucking overrated.

play it and decide for yourself, or are you incapable of making such trivial decisions without having your hand held?

if i had to guess it probably works but is not the ideal way to play it

I've watched some reviews of the ps1 version on youtube and one of them says the control works great but I don't know whether or not it's just a sort of bloated statement simply because of the fact it works on console. Loadings seem to be the issue although I suppose it doesn't distract too much from the actual game

>>3988201
The PC version has load screens too. IDK which is longer, though.

I wouldn't. If you don't like it, stop playing them.

We first need to identify the problems.

The biggest offender is that little strategy is needed to win
>Few options to strategically position yourself in fights
>Element systems are usually too simplistic
>Poor balance (having to grind or being OP)
>Stats rarely mean anything beyond defining who is a magic user and who is a fighter
>Few lasting consequences beyond gaining exp
>Disconnect between how you use a character and how they level up
>Long animations (fun the first few times, but that's it. Summons I'm looking at you)
>Little actual role-playing. For instance, what happens if you want to try diplomacy, or something unexpected to get out of fighting.
>Weapons and armor are usually strict numeric upgrades
>etc.

>>3988170
Many of these have been addressed in various franchises over the years.

If you're grinding outside of an NES game you're plying wrong, and it's your fault that there is little strategy involved in that case.

The vending machines don't have proper damage modelling. But you can kill civillians without consequence, in fact some civillians have secret handguns so your encouraged to practically. Also in the ending you do murder this woman as the credits roll.
You clearly never played it fagit.

It's decent, nice soundtrack, fairly long game.
If you liked Phantasia you'll like this. Battles are more real time though, so there's no pauses during spells and shit, makes for some intense boss fights. Much more satisfying challenge than Phantasia.

I liked Phantasia better.

Isn't that Eternia?

Checked. I love Coin Controls controllers. I have ones for my 2600, 5200 and a C64 DTV but my A500 doesn't work. Does the 2600 one work on it? Amigas have two button joysticks right? Maybe even three if UAE is to be trusted.

>>3986601
That era of Sony TV is good. Hipsters tend to over hype them a lot.

Corner geometry meme aside, flatscreens are bigger and heavier than curved of the same size and I'm not the biggest fan of their wider-still all silver bezels but they are probably the best consumer TV to be scrounging up free right now. Show her inputs.

>muh gimmicks are bad!
/vr/ in nutshell, gimmicks are fun, you never know what to expect from a level instead of "ok let's play generic level #27 featuring the same things but in different spots", it's obvious that you can get better a lot faster in a game with little variation of gameplay (like the original non-romhack SMW), not that I think DKC1 is a masterpiece, but DKC2 sure is.

Ive always loved both

History won't remember this shitty, glorified emulation machine.

>>3985926
Never saw one for sale, never saw one in person, don't know anybody who got one.
I mean what was the point?

>>3985930

I knew people who wanted one, but they were all bought immediately by resellers who camped out in front of stores in literal tents. They then put them on Craigslist and EBay for $200+ and nobody I know is stupid enough to pay that.

It actually pisses me off pretty bad, if I managed a store that sold these i'd tell obvious resellers to fuck off and only sell them to kids

Because people complained the WC2 campaign was far easier than the WC1 campaign.

Why wouldn't they make the expansion hard?
