What an amazing post. lol.
Sciz is going to come in here and destroy
everyone. I swear the whole "Platinum should make EVERYTHING" was a thing on his list that he genuinely disliked the most.
qq and I were talking about last night, actually. Some people wanted X parts to play like Vanquish and Zero parts to play like Rising. I could see the Zero parts working out to some extent but not necessarily. Vanquish in Mega Man doesn't work at all. I
never thought Mega Man was all about combat. I thought it was about learning the level, memorizing where to go, trying to avoid obstructions and enemies and getting rid of bosses while using the tools that you earn from the game.
Now, because you get weapons from bosses you kill in Rising, I guess that's why people think it's a Mega Man game? But it isn't.
I don't think the Platinum Experience would work well for Mega Man, tbh. It'd be great for a
spinoff, but not for like a main Mega Man game because it'd be so dramatically different from the actual style of the series.
I'm surprised you weren't here in 2008... I think of you as a regular and I assumed you were an old school GAFfer.
Probably because I post more often than I should. But I only got approved in 2011, so it's more likely that I post a lot in threads that kinda make me sound like I've been around for a while, I guess.
I take that as a complement, though, so thank you.
You're a
liiiiiiiiiarrrrrrrr.
And a 1000-word essay should take you 2.5 hours at the most.
Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days. I mean, what the fuck, Square-Enix
What, that the game was crap? Yeah, I know. What the hell, how was that game crap
outside of being a Kingdom Hearts game?
Because Nomura thinks these titles are cute and unique. He was the one who pushed for "Theatrhythm" here.
Have I mentioned that Fate/Zero is worth watching? I think I did but imma reiterate lol.
These guys don't watch anime much, though. I've tried to convince, but it hasn't happened. The only anime we talk about for the most part is DBZ, Sonic X, and Sonic OVA. DBZ because well, DBZ was popular and Sonic heavily borrows from it, and the latter two for obvious reasons.
Well, 2009 gave us Arkham Asylum, at least.
Was that game... good? I haven't played. >.>
Also, was that Batman 10/10 game good? Why would they even call it 10/10?
I don't think I could make a very useful per-year list. I generally play more retro stuff and I'm pretty slow on the uptake with a lot of modern titles. I'm only just now playing through Valkyria Chronicles properly...
Schala's taste doesn't seem all too dissimilar to my own. All the games on her lists that I've played I've really enjoyed, and the ones I haven't are mostly things that at least seem like stuff I would enjoy.
Hope you're enjoying VC!
That's what happened to me last year, actually. I should've prefaced my 2012 list with being a list that was highly out-of-the-ordinary for me. That's why I barely showed up on anyone's compatibility lists last year.
But yeah, I'm mostly into platformers, RPGs, point-and-clicks, visual novels, etc. so there
are games that I genuinely like. I just end up playing through a lot of schlock in between and that's where people start thinking I dislike games. And I play a lot of old stuff in between to try to clear my head.
