But, but, but!!!
Kefka has that music!!!
Truth. Except for the part about Xenogears which fucking owns, but I think weâve danced that dance before.
I suppose Xenogearsâ script is awesome if youâre 14, have mommy issues and never read a book or have any plans to do so in the foreseeable future.
Otherwise, that would be an emphatic no.
Kefka was great because he was a pathetic retard who managed to become the single most powerful being in the planet through deceit and luck. Most villains are these really powerful beings or highly skilled warriors or whatever, while Kefka was not even the best among the Magitek soldiers and always looked like an idiot. He really played to win, that guy.
As for Xenogears, the first CD is excellent story-wise. Perhaps one of the most interesting stories in a JRPG at the time (yeah thatâs not really a lot but anyways). The second CD is an aberration that shits on everything the first one did right and completely ruins the game and degrades it into some crappy visual novel / Eva wannabe. If there is a game that needs a proper remake, thatâs Xenogears. Leave the 1st CD as it is, rework the battle system to something similar to Valkyrie Profile and completely re-do the second CD and you may have a good game.
Xenogearâs cinematography was pretty awful too. The awkward closeups, stills and the like had me rolling.
Quest 64 was an awesome game. Most of the hate for it is unfounded, probably typical gamer bandwagoning.
the first zelda on nintendo was not THAT goodâŚhella overratedâŚ
im outi
Roberth
It was better then Zelda 2
What O.G. arpg wasnât?
Ys 3?
I kinda liked it myself. I never understood why it got hated on either, except maybe because you could actually move around and dodge things with your skill and not just have the magic dice say they missed? Hell, I dunno.
Well, Zelda 2 did give Link most of his Smash Bros. moves (like the down stab and the up stab).
OG Zelda on the nintendo was awesome for precisely what it was. A 8-bit recreation of Shigeru Miyamotoâs childhood experiences of playing in the woods around his house and what he imagined were ancient ruins to be explored, monsters to be slayed, and princesses in need of rescuing etc. The further games just built on this until people got sick of it. The moment the Zelda games lost this sense of wonder and exploration in a ruined world (and forcing cutscenes down our throats), the games went downhill. Also the fact that the series repeats itself is detrimental.
Majoraâs Mask >>>>>>> Ocarina of Time.
Truth. And Kefka sucks.
Then again, so does just about everybody in FFVI, so big surprise there.
Wind Waker is totally better. Which is why TP kinda pissed me off, they went right back to OoT 2.0 without a whole lot of innovation.
Ocarina of Time wasnât even that good. The graphics werenât even good for its time, and the gameplay got old quickly. Wind Waker was better, since Miyamoto figured out that all good games need parry.
No shit. If I see another EvilCloud69 or xXSipherothXx (Because yknow, xXSephirothXx was taken by someone else) on PSN, Iâm gonna fucking stab someone.
Yes, you fuckers think itâs a really good game. I might even agree. But there is nothing more uncool nowadays than having a FFVII reference in your fucking screen name. Any other character from any other video game, movie, comic, tv show, etc⌠I can deal with, but for some reason, FF7 references in screen names just screams âdipshitâ to me.
Iâm just an angry person =(
Okay hereâs my two cents, lol:
Contra 1 & 2 pâwned the living fuck outta Contra 3 (SNES).
Yes C3 had pretty graphics, but I hated the bullshit addon gayâem-play such as the bike and the missles. It wasnât the difficulty that pissed me off about those parts, but rather that they were contrived bullshit. The last stage was hard as a virgin on a beach in Bahia but was major fun. Also, the overhead stages were broke beyond words in that they spun the stage around - not your character - in single player games (in 2P games the suck did not occur).
Granted, âSipherothâ is pretty imaginative, and I would give props for that one. :lol:
Oh, and graphics matter. A lot. For any game.
I canât believe that Iâm not the only person who shares this sentiment.
Or this one. Good god I love SRK.
Fable 1 and 2 ownsâŚ
While I agree with you(at least on Fable II, never played the first one since no option of being female = Iâll pass), how is that an unpopular opinion?
Funny - itâs FF8 that does this to me.
At least Cloudâs journey (note:*** not*** a FF7 fanboy - Cecil/Edgar/Mash/Locke/Ramza ftw) was a journey of growth as a character. As the story went on, you got a handle on how truly weak his characterâs actual character was. It was a not story about a hero, but rather a story of a guy becoming a hero through his interactions with others. He became a hero because of the relationships he developed throughout the course of the game, and the strength and maturity he gained from them.
Squall=emo whiner.
âMy sister left me - wahhhh!â
(Sniffle).
âIâm gonna just sit here and suck the magic outta monsters, and FF in general.â
