>desert level is the worst level Why is this the case in

But that's wrong, jumping on quick-sand in desert levels is a hell of a lot better than the sluggish movement in water levels.

Water levels at least are pleasing to the eye and have good music to match

desert levels suck in modern games too
it's just a boring shit setting, but I guess it's easy to design

Good BG, too bad it's from OTG strikers: the game

Sewer levels are always the worst.

How about the first Bubsy? Those desert levels were pretty good and cozy. The later levels and specially the last one was by far the worst part in the game.

The problem with them is that most of the time they have this shitty arabic music "for atmosphere", and a repetitive, grueling feel, with a boring palette in the shades of tan.

Golden Axe 3 did it right, desert rock for soundtrack: https://youtu.be/TVWikk5l6Hg

I feel some other games also did the desert levels right, but I can't remember which ones

'99 is the one KoF I think could actually use a remake. It had some of the best backgrounds, some of the best music https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tRG5GNdYhyE and introduced some cool characters like Whip, Maxima and K' one of the few appearances of Kasumi...

On the other hand it's one of the worst balanced, most of the new characters are super shitty in their first outing and strikers suck.

'99 had 10/10 atmosphere, 5/10 new features. That weird defensive backstep, locked actual Kyo/Iori on arcade, Kyo-1/2, weak K', ridiculous version of Terry—almost all changes felt very strange.

Everything that game did right in terms of gameplay came from '98.

Exactly, the only one with that much disparity. Any new good KoF is welcome though.
