no, its a fairly competent platforming game with about as close to a 1 to 1 with the anime you can get while still being a good game.

why did they nerf the lance so much? the dagger not only deals more damage, but fires faster, with less gap between projectiles (especially easier to multi-hit arremers), and has a 50% higher on-screen limit. The dagger is like 3x as good as the lance. And the funny thing is the lance is the second best weapon in the game, the other weapons are just all penalty weapon trash.

Honestly the whole thing feels so sloppy and thrown together compared to the first game. The hitstun feels worse, level design is worse, your character's sprite is too big, boss design is worse, penalty weapons blocking your path is way more common, the psycho cannon feels way less satisfying than the cross/shield from the first game, the chest system is obnoxious, and the list goes on.

retested the arremer thing, it has nothing to do with the weapon, stage 2 arremer takes 4 hits while last stage's 5 which leads to confusion

it's pretty mediocre. the softcore didn't do much for me, and the handling was middling at best, and definitely worse than something like juiced or NFSUG. also had some really obnoxious lens flares that blinded you on a turn in a few tracks. braindead easy too, the subaru impreza sedan can be tuned to like 500hp right from the start and will carry you up until endgame, when you need to upgrade to the r34 skyline. it's not bad, just kind of a 6/10.

Fun fact: this game was supposed to be published by 3DO, but they went bankrupt before release. When 3DO's assets were sold off in an auction, Namco paid more cash for the rights to publish Street Racing Syndicate than Ubisoft paid for the entire (Heroes of) Might and Magic franchise.

A new UI isn't enough to consider it good unless you only use it to watch the covers in gallery.
After you pass over the UI and start a game then you'll have the same 15 year old bugs.

Yuffie can be swapped with Cid, but otherwise this is the party most people should roll with.

Black people who play JRPGs are roleplaying as Cloud, not the side character of Barret. He's also taking care of a child that was his presumed-dead friend's child, not his own; he's not really a "single father" it's more like he's her godfather and she was so young when her parents died that she only knows of Barret as her "papa."

I finally gave this series a try. Have I been gaslighted this whole time into thinking this was going to be a good game? The controls are fucking atrocious and unresponsive , the level design in world 2 takes a nose dive into Mario like pitfalls and spikes except with much worse controls than a Mario game.

I've never encountered any major bugs during normal gameplay in Sonic 3 despite it being rushed enough to warrant that being part of the manual. Mania is the only classic-style game I've gotten softlocked in, more than once even, while also having encountered baffling crush deaths that would not ever have happened in the classic games (Not a bug, but a very strange gameplay oddity as even one pixel of Sonic seems to count).

I say the above as someone who doesn't like base Sonic 3 that much and loves Mania. The truth is the truth.

I recall when most of /vr/ agreed that, despite its recent titles being hit or miss, mostly miss, Sonic used to be great, that both Sonic 2 and Sonic 3 & Knuckles were excellent video games, and some of the best 2D platformers from that era. Why is it that we get "Sonic was never good" threads or replies so often now in /vr/ all of the sudden? Are those classics suddently not good? Since when?

Sonic 2's still so fun to just pick up and play.

I noticed like late last year we got these threads almost weekly/daily and then it dropped off this year. I assumed there was an anti Sonic autist or two making all those threads and then they just moved on or got bored. I remember some of those threads had extremely obvious samefagging too

>Sub VHS videos... as opposed to what?
Any digital FMVs looked like garbage until 6th gen came around.
Just look at the lunar games where the FMVs on PS1 and Saturn look like pure vomit, while the simpler cutscenes of the SegaCD still look great to this day.
> the battles have poor framerate, but that was relatively common at the time, with N64 being by far the worst offender.
And yet OoT runs a complete 3D environment at 20fps, not great by any means but still far ahead of FF7.
FF7 was a product of its time, but it looks like shit really.
For comparison look at Legend of Mana, now that is what FF7 should've looked like.

Just downloaded, played, and quit this in the span of less than 2 hours.

The overeworld/city doesn't really offer anything beyond a few minutes of goofing off. It's just a time vampire. The missions are just worse Ratchet, even other Ratchet-likes such as Metal Arms Glitch in the System are better. Only the story, characters and cutscenes kept me from turning it off earlier. Going for the sequel today.
