What are the most mind numbingly boring and lifeless games you ever played? Quest 64 was so boring it's surreal.
>>
>>3988091
Illusion of Gaia, what a waste of fucking money.
>>
>>3988091
Dark castle for CDi, impossible and boring
>>
>>3988091
>>3988092
That's enough shit taste for one thread boyos.

You could argue that for Quest but Illusion of Gaia was objectively great.
>>
Secret of Mana. Don't know why but for some reason it bored the shit out of me.
>>
>>3988091
PS1
Shellshock
Medal of Honor Underground
some Digimon game
Ace Combat 3 US

Ecco the Dolphin. That game is a sleeping pill.

I really wanted to love it, but unfortunately I share this opinion too

Nope. I'm one of those dudes that simply didn't have fun with Ecco. The game has nice aesthetics, though.
>>
>>3988091
Is it weird that I feel like playing Quest 64 just because I often hear how boring it is? To me when you say it's boring I don't take it as it's necessarily a shitty or bad game as those you usually won't stick to it long enough to give a bore. Boring games have to walk on a very thin line where they make you keep playing it just enough to bore you but not enough to quit too soon. I mean at least that's how it goes for me. Just to stay on N64, Rugrats: Scavenger Hunt and Mission Impossible are two games I find incredibly boring but they never get shitty enough to make you give up.

Quest 64 isn't a bad or horrible game at all, in fact it has some charm to it (especially if you dig that 5th gen lowpoly aesthetic).
The problem is that the game feels empty and unfinished.
It's not a bad game to play in short bursts if you feel like grinding on a JRPG though.
I kind like its battle system, even if its apparently broken.
>>
>>3988185
I second this. Bought the game back in the day 40 bucks. Got it home and beat the piece of shit in a few hours.

I was existing expecting castlevania depth at minimum but was hoping for legend of Zelda depth.

Just a horrible fucking disappointment.
>>
>>3988346

Basically what >>3988356 said. It's not bad, it's just there's not really a lot to do. The combat is grindy, the open world feels endless but boring, and the only real progress you'll feel is leveling up your magic spells. Heck, most of the enemies are just pallet swaps. Plus you'll notice early on that you need to level up your water magic for the healing ability, and Earth magic is ridiculously OP if you can aim properly.

Give it a shot if you like a challenge, but put something on in the background so you're not bored.
>>
>>3988346
don't do it

it actually starts off really fun, it's not until the second half that it all goes to shit
>>
>>3988893
the game is about storytelling anon
>>
>>3988097
dark castle is too infuriating to be boring
>>
>>3988985
I never actually played the other versions but a game that seems made up by a guy that wanted to make sure you have the least control possible on your pathetic main character doesn't seem like something challenging in a fun way to me. But seriously from what I have read some of dark castle ports are really shitty like this one and it's not a problem of the game per se
>>
>>3988185
God I hate that game. Will is such a pansy. Terranigma on the other hand is badass. I still need to play Soul Blazer.

Quest 64 isn't bad, but it's not good. It's so mediocre that you have to play it.

Digimon World 2 and 3 are really boring, but both had interesting art (at least outside the battles) and good music. Actually 2 had shit graphics everywhere.
>>
>>3989691
2 was one of the first games that I dropped in my life out of boredom. It's a bad game.
>>
>>3988185
Soul blazer was a nice solid game but illusion of Gaia is a lifeless husk of monotony and shit story

Is terranigma an improvement?

Can somebody explain why Quest 64 doesn't have a money/gold system?

As a kid, I legit thought it was because the N64 couldn't handle something as complex as an economy, and that it was something only the PS1 hardware could do because of all the RAM and MEGABITS limitations being used to create an RPG on the N64
>>
>>3989297
Soul Blazer is fucking phenomenal.
You'll easily enjoy it.

Illusion Of Gaia is a fucking massive piece of shit.
>>
>>3991921
Now you know the 64 was far superior in every way except raw media storage. They didn't include money because they are autistic.
>>
>>3991921
I imagine they just didn't want you to stockpile healing items so that you'd focus on dodging and defensive spells more.

Although it would be preferable to the way the game currently works, where you either level up water or get fucked.

you mean wind, right?

Terranigma is my favorite SFC/SNES game so I might be biased but YES.
>>
>>3992304
You need some levels into water for healing. But yes Earth is overpowered once you unlock the multi-hitting avalanche.

This game. I tried as a kid and couldn't make any progress. Two decades later I tried again as an adult...to the same effect.

>quest 64 is not bad
>it was just unfinished, empty, bad gameplay, and uninteresting world design
Guys I realized we were starved as fuck on the n64 for RPGs, but Quest was not good.
>>
>>3992983
It doesn't have bad gameplay, hence why it can't be called a proper bad game.
It had the potential to be good if it had more to it, more NPCs, party members.
Even the world design isn't bad, with more NPCs in town and in the field the game would feel more lively.

>>3993005
Well it's clearly unfinished, there's no money or equipment systems, the only items are consumables, the battle system is interesting but with a lot of useless spells while earth and water are overpowered, there was a party system planned but it got scrapped before production. It's a very flawed game.

If you play the game with some particular websites handy, you will see that it had serious potential. No shitting, I think besides Majora's Mask and Ogre Battle, Quest 64 had the potential to be one of the system's absolute best games. It had such an ambitious world and a very neat (if unrefined) magic system. The game was supposed to have 4 party members. Seriously, their characters are in the game: Princess Flora, Donovan, and Leonardo. Enemies scaled up in number and strength as your party grew stronger. Battles were intended to feel epic with 4 people casting and slashing away. There was also so much more planned for the game, but with the N64 struggling in Japan, Nintendo began pressuring companies to get rpgs on it RIGHT FUCKING NOW because apparently Japs don't care for any other genre. Quest was one of those unfortunate victims who got booted out the door before it could finish brushing its teeth, and this is the same reason Body Harvest never met its full potential.

I know the game is a miserable wretch as it is, but it had lovely music in some areas, pretty landscapes and cityscapes, and a cast of (unused) charming heroes.
>>
>>3992392
I was thinking of the earth spell that allows you to be immune to attacks for 3 turns. Water is good for healing and I think an increase defense spell.

or maybe more than one kid is salty that they can't play many N64 properly because its emulation sucks. We'll never know for sure.

Hate is a strong feeling.
Why the trauma? Mommy didn't buy you more than one console as a kid? Or N64 fans bullied you during elementary?

don't you have a jontron video to watch?
