>Game does something first>It fucking sucks at itPost other examples(DAH2 is I think the first open world co-op game, but it's terrible at it with a tether and lowered framerate. The remake fixed every coop issue though)
What does /vr/ think about the Tengai Makyou series?

I was a NES-owning kid when I first came upon screenshots of Manjimaru’s OP in a magazine. I was floored.I’ve been waiting for a translation in order to play it ever since.
>>12560080>Okuni is my waifuher line delivery is awkward and she comes across as a first time actress but her performance is very endearing and, dare I say, moe. her wikipedia profile is cute it says one of her interests is kabuki which is fitting obviously and she admitted in an interview that she is bad at narration and voice over work and constantly flubs her lines. Its funny shes an actual actress, while kabuki den was being made she was starring in a drama series and randomly all the episodes are on youtube.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XSxbZzWOITM&list=PLtg4dUOpphTXIllK0rmxQsRhQS4aKy-zI&index=2you can hear her voice very distinctly in the first 10 seconds of this episode.
The original appeal of this series was just "Dragon Quest if he voiced"
Why would anyone buy the AES+?With a real AES + NeoSD you get:- Actual original hardware- The entire library on one cart, plus homebrew, plus the ability to buy new games from indie devs (some even released in .neo format)- Proven compatibility- Something that actually holds valueAES+ gives you:- Some kind of emulation even if they’re using ASICs, depending on what they actually built- Probably a locked or limited game setup, with no confirmation that NeoSD or any flash cart will even work- “Authenticity” only in the sense that it’s officially licensed- Who knows how long it’ll even be supportedIf the price of an original AES + NeoSD is basically the same as the ultimate edition (price + shipping + tax + tariff), this feels like a complete non-starter.Comment too long.

>>12560129>>12560132Crossed Swords II improved the graphical fidelity ,sound, gameplay unfortunately the visual aesthetic is inferior to the original more dark fantasy look. Crossed Swords series is set in the same world as ADKs Magician Lord.
>>12560136They also removed the coolest looking enemy

>>12560117Of course. >Pic rel; me going out on town after preordering AES+
The more I play this, the more I realize Sega was made for stupid people. All of it is about action and speed. Stuff that required no patience, but just mashing buttons over and over again. I truly believe that you have to be dumb as shit to have preferred Sega to Nintendo.
>>12558035t. Fat ugly balding Nintendrone
>>12545940SNES got Mystic Quest, a game explicitly made for dumbies. You cannot come back from this.
>>12560060Most SNES games are made for dumbasses. It's a console for children after all. Sega was for teenagers and adults

>>12557591Dode did nothing wrong. And his cancellation was Barb's doing, not Panga directly.
>>12560061That's a huge stretch.
I'm at Shibuya past the missiles hit but I give up. There is something very wrong about the gameplay in this version. I thought I still had a ludo kino version of the game left to play, and it's true that it is kino, the visuals and musics are great, often better than the PSX version I would say; but it's not ludo. I don't know what they did but this version is basically press X to win. There are tons of weird shit going on, it feels like guns deal more damage (you know, the thing that was ALREADY broken in the original), and I know for a fact that drops are completely different and they hand out a shit ton more money and mag (though weirdly, the human messian enemies which were money whales in the original don't drop any money in this version).You know what else is weird? I'm doing a low agility run for the protag so he still has 8 agility, but he's STILL getting turns before most enemies most of the times. I also feel like oftentimes the dmg I am dealt is super low and that's when enemies DO manage to hit me because most of the times they don't.What pisses me off is that there is nothing documented about gameplay changes in this version anywhere I checked, not even on Japanese sites. This is why you can't trust ports, you never fucking know what they fucked up.
>>12559318That's definitely how it works in the other versions as well. You can get away with keeping Estoma up basically all the time and make back the exp by fighting a few higher level enemies and bosses with debuffs and stunlock strategies. I think it's really fun
>>12559413Yeah but I mean, if you end up being a higher level from a single fight because you DIDN'T fight all this time, something is wrong with the scaling. I mean, you're basically gaining *more* exp if you avoid random encounters. It's like, if you're low level enough, the base exp is multiplied too much.In the PSX version other characters always join back at the same level as the protag is instead of lvl 1 or the level they were last time they left the party, which I thought was shitty because you don't get to choose their stat spread; but now I'm starting to think they did this to avoid these kind of situations
Check this out, the Cathedral is almost entirely different after all. The first two floors, 1F and B1F, are very similar to the OG but different: you can fully explore both these floors but you can only reach the other floors after dealing with Vishnu and Ravana (iirc in the OG you can't go further from the entrance until that). The layout is a little more simple in the sense that going to the other floors is simpler as the path is more evident.Once you reach the other floors the layouts are completely different, here is B2F OG B2F for comparison: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/snes/564896-shin-megami-tensei/map/14190-great-cathedral-lower-floors-mapWeirdly enough there is no boss on this floor on MCD, the darkened part is an elevator which isn't operating yet. There are however a total of 18 (!) chests on this floor alone: 3 traps, 2 empty, 5 stat boosting items and 8 jewels. This might explain why they got rid of chests in other places in the game.
Okay something is DEFINITELY fucked up with the experience in the MCD version.I fought Surtr at lvl 68 and I earned 512k exp, enough to reach lvl 85 just from this one fight alone.This version is so broken it's not even funny

>>12559473I don't get it, if you had a job surely you could have afforded an Xbox AND a PS2? I didn't even get my first ever job until I was 24 and I still managed to have a PS1, N64, PS2, PC and a handful of games for each system throughout my teenage years. I even had a girlfriend who bought me a brand new PS3 Slim for Christmas in 2009, nearly a whole year before I got my job.
>>12559808You can’t grasp the loyalty and dedication of a console warrior veteran to their one and only console for a generation. Only those sluts without such commitment owned two or more.
>>12559473>>Saturn looks killer...>>It plays CDs and carts>>Wait, it is not backward compatible with the Genesis and Sega CD?yes backwards compatibility saved PSX and GBA.

Why is it such a perfect game, aesthetically, musically, and gameplay-wise? Even 3 decades later nothing else comes even close.
>>12558858didn't beat the game
>>12553227>Even 3 decades later nothing else comes even close.uh-huh.
>>12558896With a source port you could, you can actually aim and the controls are more fluid
>>12555183
It's an incredible foundation but I think the original enemy roster gets kind of long in the tooth. the caco and lost soul aren't quite enough to be the entire second tier of normal enemies. enough to be a good game of course but not perfect.
Name a single 4x game that even comes close. I'll wait.
Civ V is better.
>>12559601not WinXP retro
Time for the people's choice!
That's enough for today, I'll have more Playstation Power on Monday!

>>12554638>>12554452Yeah, I use 4chan X - it's honestly a godsend.>This magazine last quite a bit, I guess tony hawk games, disney games, piracy, rythym games, cheap ports, licensed games and harry potter games helped a lot from 2002 til 2004.Honestly, even in 2004 they were barely hanging on. Late-era OPM UK (especially in the last year or so) had a weird vibe of "fuck it, let's just do whatever, not like anyone's paying any attention."
>>12549483cool jrpg report

No dying.
>>12551464Ok anons from Ireland, Russia, Czech, Greece, Italia, Portugal, Australia and South africa, how differente were the issues you get?Did you usally get the same demo?Would you say contente was 50% 75% or 85% the same?How pricey was the magazine for you?
>Gamecube had online capabilitiesWhy did it go vastly underutilized compared to PS2 or Xbox or even Dreamcast?
>>12558949No, we didn't.
Nintendo seemed scared of online. Probably too afraid they couldn't control the environment and there'd be too many cheaters and pedos. In the next gen their online environment was a lot more restricted compared to the competition.
>>12558873There had to me more than one Gamecube owner in the world to make it worthwhile
forget online. sil'fer is cute. all that matters.

>>12557884ENOUGH!
Since it's star wars Month and May the 4th, since the first of may I started playing Star wars games. I'm not one of those nerds who do the "Star wars month" so this is my first rodeo and I say it's not bad revisiting games I already played but a long time ago or dicovering new ones. I started this month by playing "Star Wars Shadow of the Empire" on emulator and I would say it's even my first time trying the N64, I mean I tried when I was a kid from a friend house and played Mario Kart but nothing else, I was a PS1 kid. Anyway it wasa good game with a modern controller and the only problem was the speeder level on Tatooine but after watching a video online I discovered hwo to beat it, it was a nice game the problem for me it didn't had enough story but the little it had it felt like a good spin off of star wars like they really put tought in it and Dash is a cool character for what little we know.Now I started yesterday "Dark Forces" I played a long time ago so it wasn't a new game for me and I would say it still holds up, this time I'm playing the PS1 port not the Dosbox, I feel it's a little harder than the PC port but mainly for the aiming and the frame drops sometimes has but in general a real good Doom Clone.So are you playing some star wars related games this star wars month?
>>12559742They were probably too busy making other games including the Jedi Knight series, series which would net them more income since it was on PC and not on N64 (on N64 they'd own 33% royalty to Nintendo, on PC they keep that for themselves). For a dev studio that started so small and so inexperienced, all the devs came out of nowhere when they made Dark Forces, they sure made a lot of great games.
>>12560093Yeah, Star Wars was so marketable they really didn't need to build of Shadows. Rogue Squadron game out not too long after and did great. Probably even better. Star Wars itself is the brand.

>>12560137Soul Wars: Soul Knight: Soul Forces II
>>12548942A shame too, I played it back in the day on period correct hardware and a joystick. Such a great game.
>>12560114Offer to give her the old lickeroo
>>12550367Boy, you sure picked the best place to ask.
Girls from the suburbs will respond positively to anything with Mario or Zelda in the title.Girls from less affluent regions will respond positively to Sonic/Crash/Spyro games from before those series went to shit.And every girl who has ever lived loves The Sims for some reason.
>>12550367Dr Mario, Puyo Puyo, Tetris, katamari, parappa etc mostly Dr Mario and puyo puyo
>>12550432It's probably mainly because you can just bash the buttons and have a chance to win
