>>12312891Don't mind anons who clearly don't know what they're talking about
>>12312891Absolute casuals. If you time it right you can start the game with A held down. Releasing it at the last moment gives you a negative half press win. What plebs.

For me it's Milon's Secret Castle. I like the presentation, the movement is ok enough, and I actually love how cryptic it is even though that's the usual complaint I see. The one thing that annoys me is how fast the enemies respawn. It makes the exploring tedious having to kill the same dumb little monster every 5 seconds. Would have been better if they only respawned by scrolling away from their original locations.
>>12308828>most strategy games let the AI cheat in free resourcesI always found it interesting that WarCraft 2 doesn't do that. Killing peasants/peons is actually a good strategy. If a mission in Beyond the Dark Portal is giving you a hard time you can always play the waiting game and defend until they run out of gold.
>>12309240Which is good design.I will admit right now that AI in games is never perfect, and will sometimes need to cheat in order to abstract certain processes and tactics instead of simulating them, that's fine. If they get +1 stone from their stone quarries to simulate efficient pathing, placement, and other tricks that's perfectly fine.What is not fine is being given free resources out of thin air. Cutting off supply lines is one of the most effective and most ancient military stratagems of all.
>>12308814that just sounds like a hard game, I have a higher tolerance for jank than most tho
>>12307767Same but Legacy of the Wizard. Great idea for a wide, labyrinthine, secret-heavy game, but it's annoying not being able to stop and think for a couple seconds because shit keeps respawning. And if I recall it's even worse because you have limited magic.
Milon's Secret Castle? More like
Bloody Roar 2 is the one
>>12309698Because the FGC are plebs that only overhype big shots like Capcom, Bamco, ASW, SNK and so on. Eighting has a reputation for making busted but really fun fighting games. Along with Bloody Roar, they also did the Naruto Clash of Ninja series, Tatsunoko vs Capcom, Marvel vs Capcom 3, Fate Unlimited Codes, the Kamen Rider fighting games, DNF Duel and the recent Hunter x Hunter game.Just get Extreme over Primal Fury since it has some additional polish and supports progressive mode. You can find English patches for it.
>>12309751Not really a fan of this filter, but thank you
>>12309910ha filtered
>>12309751You can't play every game. Especially if you actually grew up playing retro games and didn't retroactively choose based on digging and YouTube retrospectives, a lot of the time you played what was known already or that you played previous iterations of, , most communally owned by peers, had the most cabinets around, had the most games on rental shelves etc. I agree that people should be more open to lesser known games (hell if you're really old you know damn well SNK was virtually unknown to casuals before the YouTube era, most casuals only play d SF, MK, Tekken, and SC) but there's also reasons why not everyone played every single series under the sun. I've been playing fighting games since like 1993 and there's still some fairly popular games I've just never dug into, like Killer Instinct or Darkstalkers

What was call of duty fucking thinking?
>>12312678After the hotel escape you eventually get a handgun and the game kinda becomes a horror-themed shooter from then onwards.

>>12312120I don't remember too much about this except the escape section and the final areas being fun.>>12312310>CondemnedI played it recently and enjoyed the atmosphere. The combat was good too for the most part, but I wish the walking speed wasn't so slow. And that there was a bit more to do when investigating crime scenes to have to figure things out. It reminded me a lot of the movie Se7en.
An action puzzle game similar to Wario Land 2/3 or the handheld Klonoa games. I did not care enough to 100% it, but it was nice enough for a regular playthrough.

ITT: Playable little girls in retro games.
>>12312136Playing it with a GBA lets you select the Advance World! option in the title screen. There is a rom hack that lets you do it on a regular GBC and you can also do it just with the debug mode.> Wendy: Every Witch Way is one of a handful of games which unlock additional features when played on a Game Boy Advance. In this case, the player is rewarded with three more stages over the original 12. Of course, there's no technical reason for these stages to be GBA-exclusive; while games can detect that they're running on a GBA, they're not able to take advantage of any of the GBA's hardware beyond its backward-compatible GBC mode. GBA detection is based on the B register, which is initialized to 00 on a genuine Game Boy Color and 01 on a Game Boy Advance.>While some GBC emulators can be set to run in "GBA mode", others—and perhaps more importantly, real hardware— cannot. An easy way to force the game to run in "GBA mode" (i.e. enable Advance World) is to modify the code as follows (Game Genie codes 069-76C-C45 029-77C-6EA):>Quite early in the game's startup, it multiplies the B register by two. On the Game Boy Color, this does nothing (0×2=0) while on the GBA this results in 02 being stored in the B register. The modified code replaces that instruction with one to simply store 02 in the B register. This will cause the game to run in GBA mode on any hardware or emulator.>This is largely moot as all players can access the Advance World levels by using the game's debug mode, but this obviates the need for that trivial nuisance.https://tcrf.net/Notes:Wendy:_Every_Witch_Wayhttps://www.romhacking.net/hacks/4039/

What are some of the strangest mods and rom hacks you've seen for retro games? Thread inspired by a recent discovery of mine, a hack of Faxanadu that injects fragments of the writing of Georges Bataille into the script. https://www.rf5.org/fgb/
Donner Party is a romhack of Monster Party that actually changes a lot of things. All graphics and all music, and I think the level layouts are completely revamped as well.

Worse than the original Wonder Boy which is a completely different genre. Worse than the first hack and slash style entry, Wonder Boy in Monster Land. Worse than the weird shoot em up entry. And worse than the subsequent entries in the series.I understand that the game is influential, especially for the whole metroidvania genre. But it has so many little issues which made it far less enjoyable than the other entries in the series. The game is either ridiculously easy in the early game or a massive pain towards the end. The extremely short range of the sword throughout the entire game makes it feel like your weak no matter how many hearts or armor upgrades you get. The final boss is also awful, with it dragging the player along for an annoying amount of time every time you're hit. Parts of the game were enjoyable, but I heard this entry being hyped up as one of the greatest releases for the master system and in the series.
>>12309980best way to decide, not because it chooses for you but because it reveals what you actually wanted
>>12305457Be a man and play the SG 1000 version
>>12309815Yeah this game is great too! Forgot about this for some reason.
>>12310987Ill try it out

>>12309064>>12309073>le pages and pages because of a video I sawZoomers begone. I was there for both of them. I know how popular TFC was when it first came out and how popular TF2 was during its heydey.I even called it out in the post you replied to -- I said you're comparing NOW, post-prak, to THEN, peak. It's not a valid comparison. But still you brain-dead retards committed the same error.
>>12310663I was there for both. TFC was bigger, sorry faggot.
>>12309919this but for every old team fortress game
>>12300343TFC is far better than Troon Fortress 2. The former is not updated to appeal to the insane whims of degenerates. Though no doubt they will start updating it soon and make the Scouy a troon.

Is it a better game than Re:Chain of Memories?
>>12312372Absolutely yes. The 3d element really fucked with the gameplay and made it feel a lot more tedious on ps2.
>>12312372Re: is dogshitThe OG CoM is the most favelacore GBA title because some people were too stupid to emulate or poor to buy a PS2 or a better computer.It's still a better game overall, but i would fucking kill for another KH game like it but without the stupid cardass gameplay.
>>12312372YesJust watch the cutscenes on YoutubeYou're only missing out of some extra cards and 3rd Marluxia fight (at the cost of a much, much better experience with GBA version)

I wonder how many people who are somewhat familiar with SF, but aren't gamers would assume that Ryu and Chun-Li have something going on.They're respectively the most popular male character and most popular female character of the franchise, and in things like movies/TV shows that usually signals some romantic involvement, but it's not as ubiquitous in gaming.Basically what I mean is that I can understand why some hired comic book writer without much supervision would make them a thing, while in the games Ryu is a homeless man who only thinks about fighting, and Chun is forever alone (AFAIK)
Kino
the original was way better
