IMO everything NES and lower is kosher for savescumming. Everything SNES and higher is piss easy so no savescumming is necessary.
>>
>>743339054
Dont act like you even played a quarter of the snes library. Bubsy alone would take a 1000 hours to beat without savestates.
>>
>>743338994
>>743339054
You didn't beat the game
>>
>>743339054
Savescumming being "necessary" is a skill issue.
10 year old kids could beat these games when they came out dude
>>
>>743340630
I don't care
>>
Was only a pain in the Anniversary Collection with input lag
>>
>>743338994
none
>>
>>743341023
depends on the game, none of my friends were able to beat snes lion king, game's got hands
pretty sure it was common to just fail to beat that game ever
>>
>>743341197
Then why are you playing it, you clearly dont care about the game
>>
I savestate scummed the falling stairs part in SCIV and I don't care

Is it realistic to beat the first two DOOMs with no saves?
Possibly.
Is it realistic to beat The Plutonia Experiment without ANY saves?
No.
>>
>>743341642
>Using saves instead of pistol starting every level
>>
>>743338994
Every single megaman game, and I do mean every single one, is designed to be a retarded 5yo's first game. The series is next to Kirby in difficulty You should be embarrassed of ever consdiering savestates.
>>
My only time did savescum was to get that CD in Groundman stage
>>
>>743341714
I meant using pistol start WITH saves during levels

JUMP! JUMP!

Wowwww

With mouselook both DOOMs are easy as fuck on Ultra Violence.
Buth yeah, Plutonia is not as fun or easy to single segment. One has to know each and every map from head to toe and memorize every encounter or monster closet placement.
>>
>>743342347
Mouselook is a game-breaking hack like modding mid-air control into classic castlevania.
If you used it then i'm (not) sorry to say but you unironically didn't beat the game.
>>
>>743342854
If other people like to use Mouselook, then sure, go ahead. But me, whenever I test out mouselook it just feels so. . . wrong?
>>
>>743342917
It does, yeah. Shit completely changes the game from how it was designed to be played
>>
I just do whatever I think will be most fun.
>>
>>743338994
Generally acceptable times to use save states:
>the game has a password system and you make a save every time you get your password
>the game has unskippable cutscenes and you drop a save right after so you don’t have to rewatch it
>>
>>743338994
Catching lvl 50 Snorlax in Pokemon Crystal. Or Suicune. Or any one-time Pokemon opportunity. I did everything right, why should I accept punishment for the rest of the playthrough?
>>
>>743341910
most of these games have artificial difficulty because they wanted to pad the game time
also nice bait
>>
>>743338994
The section after this where you have to grapple with the thunder claw is way worse IMO.
>>
>>743341421
why do YOU care
>>
>>743341714
ah yes, I remember using the pistol start feature present in the menu
>>
>>743338994
If you're too much of a shitter to beat this the intended way you can air stall using Astro Man's weapon and often can save your self when you flub a jump. No excuses to save scum.
>>
>>743341421
I care about the game. I just don't care if some random faggot on the internet thinks I'm playing it correctly or not.
>>
I feel between stages on Mega Man X is fine, since the games give you a save password you can input anyways.

Any game like that.
>>
Sigma Palace.
>>
>>743344216
and if you turn off the console you have to restart the Sigma stages all over again and farm to fill up your sub tanks.
>>
>>743338994
That's pretty brown dude. Rockman 8 is quite easy as is.

You wouldn't survive the asylum I was raised in.
>>
>>743339054
you obviously havent played alot of snes games.
>>
>>743339054
And it only took 1 post for a cheater to come in and justify themselves
>>
>>743343398
Seconding this anon. Games with 20-character passwords in particular can get pretty annoying.
