I'm genuinely curious why you chose those two games. I mean, I enjoyed them, but they aren't my favorites.

thinking about either buying an Android tablet or a Windows 10 tablet for /VR/ purposes. I know Android tablet can play almost all emulators, SNES, genesis, PSX, etc. but could a Windows tablet play some /vr/ late 90s games, besides emulation? (some some slightly not vr games) the tablet I'm looking at has an Intel atom 1.33ghz quad core and 1gb ram with integrated graphics, could I play some deus ex, system shock 1&2, half life 1and it's mods, cs1.6, deathmatch, dod
should I stick to Android and emulators or a cheapo win tab and some PC games too?

Of course a windows PC is going to play windows PC games.

>>3853769
That windows tablet is underpowered and lacks RAM.
It will be slow as shit.

HP Stream 7 is what I use for that purpose

I think we can all agree that the SNES was the last great Nintendo console, in terms of both first-party and third-party line-up.

Its not cool to like n64 anymore is it?
For a while it was THE console people still played other than whatever the newest thing was

Which platform games are worth playing after finishing all the classic ones? All systems as well as platforming sub-genres (Puzzle platformers, Run n' Guns etc) are OK for me. The games that were popular in their heyday but got overshadowed by their sequels or other similar titles are also fine.

Call me crazy but I think that concept art is communicated effectively in the final game. Lizalfos were pretty scary when I was a kid.

What RPG (Western or JRPG but obviously retro), do you consider to be the most difficult/challenging (that can actually be beaten without cheats/hacks/etc.)?

By difficult and challenging I mean games that require skill, planning, thought, strategy, etc. as opposed to getting lucky/RNG and so on (I assume Wizardry IV would take the title otherwise).

Wizardry IV.
>>
Wizardry 4 isn't just luck. You're not going to make it through the game just by manipulating the dice.
>>
The trick for Might and Magic book 1 is to have several Wizards with a high speed stat so you can win battles before the enemies get a move.
You can carry enough food to rest 40 times without going to the Inn so spellpoints are no issue and there are places where you can quickly grind unlimited amounts of gems so you can really spam several Metoer Shower spells every combat round once you learned it.

Did you already see a girl burn the traction cables of an elevator to get faster on the roof of a skyscraper though?

Its a good and challenging dungeon crawler. Better than that jrpg trash where you spam the A button and occasionally heal a party member.

I played oot for the first time on 3ds and had absolutely no problem with that temple. In fact i didn't like the game because i thought it was much too easy.

it's just annoying having to stop playing the game and go into the menu to change your boots every 30 seconds

Eh, if I'd have had the foresight to not sell all my good shit to a second hand game store back in the late 90s to buy a couple of ps1 games I might've turned into a collectorfag. As is, I'm not interested in dropping $5000 rebuying all my favorite games I practically gave away for like $50 back then, let alone mountains of shitty sports games and other assorted bullshit just to make my collection bigger. Emulators, burned discs, and flashcarts only for me now.

Hey /vr/os, here's the thing.
For most of my life, I've been playing nothing but JRPGs, stuff like Suikoden, Xenogears, Grandia, etc (to name a few).
I feel like I've been missing a lot, so I decided to boot up Steam and give some WRPGs a try, the problem is that I don't know where to start.
I'm looking for a smooth transition, what would you say is the best?
A friend recommended me Baldur's Gate and Planescape Torment, but I also want /vr/'s opinion, if possible.

The strings at 0:52 - do they remind you of anything?

Or maybe a "popular music that sounds like retro game music" general.

That was a pretty common progression in a lot of 80's rock.
Was there anything in particular you liken it to?

Ultima 1 was actually not to bad to get through as long as you had a checklist FAQ or something to know where to go. I couldn't stand 2 though.

Exodus and those Runes of Virtue spinoffs for Game Boy were the only ones I enjoyed. The rest of the series is pretty garbage-tier, especially with sequels just being endless rehashes of Quest of the Avatar.

VII was pretty notable for breaking social norms at the time, though. The player could solicit members of the same sex if they were so inclined. Not sure how that got past the censors, unless the ratings regulators were simply too focused on consoles at the time.

Let's try to discuss this amazing series.

Post your favorite:

>Belmont
>level/set piece
>enemy
>music
>boss fight
>background graphic
>sound effect
>splash screen

Can't think of what else to add but that should get the thread going.
I'm leaving out "favorite game" because I think most CV games are good and you should be able to pick favorite stuff from different ones, instead of limiting yourself to only one of the titles.
