I've been wondering is there a reason this boss battle was so graphically sparse?

I mean this is the climactic fight of the game and the setting seems to be nothing more than a very simplistically represented castle and an entirely black background
it seems like its in stark contrast compared to the rest of the game which has very colorful and well detailed visuals

>not knowing mode 7 limits

Mode 7 can only work with backgrounds, so Bowser is a background character in that battle. The fight runs smoothly enough, but having more background textures would have slowed everything down on the SNES, so they probably made it black to avoid that.
>>
>>3347069
>>3347080

you mean its really just because of when bowser flies towards the castle from off in the distance?

it seems like there are plenty of games that use mode 7 while at the same time having more complex graphics on the screen but maybe its just because those games were released later

Is it possible for you to have conscious thought?

If you want to make a fighting game thread just make a fighting game thread, no need to open with some /v/ tier rhetoric question.

Yes, I did for years until I got into the competitive scene

Not rethoric, I'm terrible at fighting games but I still enjoy playing them. I don't wanna start a fighting game general, they will only kick me out and bitch about playing the CPU.

What did each major video game console company (Sony, Nintendo, Sega, etc.) bring to the table that the others did not? It seems like nowadays Nintendo has the best first-party titles, PlayStation has the best third-party support and the Xbox is the best all-in-one media center in addition to playing games.

How was this in retro times?

Nintendo brought to the table being for babies and manchildren who run away when they see blood because they are immature babyfags and can't handle a deep, dark, serious game like I can. Sega and Sony had games that reflected the inner darkness and scarring of my soul from having two Christmases since my parents were divorced, while Nintendo did kiddy shit because nintentoddlers are fucking babies who never had to rough it in high school like real people, like me, who had to deal with bullies and preppy douchebags since they didn't understand my real power...

What I liked about the old days was the fact that multiplatform games were usually different on every console. The "same" game could yield an entirely different experience depending on which platform you were playing on. Nowadays, there's no real difference between versions.

By the same artist that worked on the Lula. Sadly it's only in German and the only version I found came with an old ass dosbox install. Would love to find the game stand-alone someday.

Hey /vr/. I'm looking for games in the style of Ultima Underworld 1 and 2, Elder Scrolls (Arena and Daggerfall), and Lands of Lore 2.

By that I mean first-person action RPGs with smooth free movement (not step- or tile-based with 90-degree turns). Preferably for MS-DOS.

Any suggestions?

What would you say is the #1 advantage retro games have over modern games?

For me personally, it's the lack of online capabilities. There are so many games nowadays that have most, if not all of the gameplay focused online, and that feels very temporary to me. Online servers are always going to go down eventually, whereas retro games are permanent and will be just as playable in the current decade as they were in the '80s and '90s. In a few years certain online focused games are going to be literally unplayable.

Lack of loading times, if we're talking about carts.

no cutscenes or tutorials

Well, I barely play modern games because I decided to focus on older consoles... So, I think, the greatest advantage for me is I can play retro games everywhere on every modern piece of hardware.

The character you're controlling, doesn't she throw chemicals? I think I've played that character in a MUGEN pack before and had to look up the game she originally was from and it seems to be like a 2d version of rival schools.

Who's idea was it to make the interface use these tiny ass red buttons instead of the actual text box?

You always find yourself wanting to click the box but then nothing happens and you remember that you have to go for le tiny red button instead.

Is it just me or is this asinine?

Fallout is not known for its fantastic interface. It looks pretty cool, but it takes a while to get used to. Reading the manual is also pretty necessary for understanding how to play the game well.

That Per Jorner(?) guide was a massive help, but it predates the Restoration Project.

Speaking of that, what's people's opinions on the Restoration Project?
