i just started playing EverQuest, the first MMORPG, from 1999 and I am playing on the official servers, run by Daybreak Games. My god, this game is incredible. Like, i have finally found the perfect game.Who else here loves EverQuest?
>>11394621No but he wouldn't let me play vanilla wow when it came out.
>download game>make account>start it up>create character>instantly alt-tab out to make a thread about how FUN the game I never played is>>11394278You are unironically an insufferable retard.
not me. was busy playing the game that established the south korean mmo hegemon status, even today.
Thats very cool
For me, it's Toontown Online
I’m liking it so far, but when does the actual main game start? I’ve been playing for a long time now (just escaped Alexandria in disc 2) and I’m still just getting tossed around by the story with party members leaving and switching perspectives left and right. I feel like I’m playing the longest prologue of all time, it’s like 5 mini midgars in a row with some frog catching in between. How long does it take to actually get my party back together and get let loose in the world?
>>11395287You get a fucking ship and airship in disc 3 and even another airship in disc 4 and a flying chocobo. Keep playing retard.
It gets into the full swing of things a little after halfway through disc 1 where you leave Lindblum and can do chocobo stuff, get AP for to learn abilities from the weaker weapons you didn't get all the abilities from that you'll never want to use later, and get a bunch of blue magic.
>>11396297You can also do that quiz bullshit and play cards. I easily waste 3 hours after lindblum before i go to burmecia
>>11396372I lost a card playing that minigame at the start of the game and haven’t touched it since. Doesn’t really seem to be any rewards for playing it anyway besides more cards so I don’t really care.
chocobo hot and cold is the best minigame in any jrpg bar none.i have never and will never get the excalibur II solely because of this minigame.
It's fucking retarded bullshit you basically have to 1CC this game just to beat it because the minigame to get 1ups is stupidly fucking difficult. Even reaching it is a pain in the ass, but bouncing around like a spastic trying to grab 50 rings before falling out the maze is near impossible for me
>sonic is too hard >zelda 1 is too hard>mario 64 is too hard>etcIt's embarrassing how the retro games board is like this. You guys would shit your pants if you played any computer games.
>>11396702old boomer PC spreadsheet shit is some of the easiest games around. Arcade games (1CCs) are by far the hardest
>>11396702What's a difficult computer game?
Sonic games are save state games
>>11396264There's 1 ups everywhere, and special stages (you have 10 chances at them) give you effortless continues
Recommend me some games (for any of the Gameboy systems) that aren't cartoony or childish. It doesn't have to be gory or M rated but it should aim for a serious atmosphere and realistic aesthetics.
>>11388637The GBA port of Wolf 3D sucks
>>11395665The word nintoddler makes more sense now.

>horrible camera that needs constant correction>empty overworld with nothing to do and just wastes your time for minutes at a time>hours of unskippable cutscenes that are very badly animated, and the story isn't even good>the aiming controls are awful>the controls are pretty bad in general; the arc when turning just sucks and the context-sensitive inputs don't even work when you want half the time>extremely overrated soundtrack that blends together; you might like these repetitive loops if you have autism>fans deny all these issues, declaring it flawless and the best game ever madeHappy 26th birthday Ocarina of Time!
>>11395690Damn, he sounds based. As a segachad who still fights the Nintendo menace, daily. I’m perfectly happy with being compared to this yamato chad. ALL HAIL OUR EMPEROR!
>>11395039Stay triggered bruh. Sonic Adventure is the best 3D Sonic game of all time.
>>11395039>horrible camera that needs constant correctionI never got this meme. When does the camera do anything remotely uncouth in Sonic Adventure?
>>11395721>>11396113Maybe you should finish reading the post
>>11395690What the fuck
I've beaten FF5 two times and I forget everytime who the dragon on the logo is.
>>11393116it's a western style dragon
>>11393116More importantly, why is he giving that A a handj... err tailjob?
>>11393161Wait what? Hold on what’s that shit? Who the fuck is Richard? Get the what? Hold on that’s a different game. So is that. Wait hold on what? No. Hold on what? Hang on. Ok. Got it. Alright let’s do this. Wait he can delete savestates?
>>11393161You forgot that they need to collect all four missing library pages before the Library of the Ancients becomes inaccessible in the third world
>>11393116Because most big lizards are
Yep, it's kino time
>>11396553I actually enjoy this zone, it has some nice shortcutsIts only marble I dont like in sonic 1
>>11396651I'm assuming you are only talking about the boss? Otherwise by far the easiest method to do it is to just take it slow and always grab the air bubbles. There is loads of time between bubble stations so long as you don't skip right past multiple of them. You shouldn't die in labyrinth zone when taking it slow. >>11396683Ah, marble zone is my favorite. But I only really like Sonic 1. Sonic 2 levels are just a convoluted mess full of trial and error and gimmicks and completely missed the appeal of the series.
silent rob's favorite level
>>11396553Objectively: one of the worst Sonic worlds ever created. Reminder, to anyone in this thread pretending that they like it, being contrarian does NOT make you more interesting.
>>11396771Not everyone likes gotta go fast bing bing wahoo gimmicks and flashy visuals
I actually like Marble Zone. I find lava levels to be very comfy in general, for some reason.
>>11393787I disabled the time limit so i could lurk around the stage, lol.
>>11393893>>11393901>>11394062>>11393960I wish you faggots would just like all 3 like me.
>>113965081 and CD just don't have the sauce. They're not bad games, but the idea that they could compete with Mario was laughable. Sonic 2, though, I'd pick over either Mario 2.
>>11396472Donkey Kong Country is better than both Mario and Sonic. True king of platformers.
>>11396549Because it takes after both and made it fun in both worlds.
>square ditches nintendo for Sony during 5th gen>comes back with one of the worst FF games of all time as a Nintendo exclusive for 6th genWhy does Square hate them so much?
>>11396262>During the sixth generation Japan spammed diablo-likes clonesWas it fear that Blizzard would take over the Japanese market? Most ARPG consoles were Japanese. There were like 15 Western ARPGs in total at the time
>>11396292Gay opinion console warrior
>>11396262I think they made it for kids and assumed American kids were retards OP because they have a history thinking Americans kids are retarded
>>11396558The game was made for Japanese people. Unlike the mainline games that are heavily advertised
>>113962624 players with 4 GBAs Connected to the GC playing this was comfy.
For me, it's the Jag!!
>>11396171I'm pretty sure either the 32x or Saturn versions of NBA Jam TE were better. I do Keep Jaguar on my BigBox with Tempest, Raiden, FlashBack, and AVP. Although I don't think the last 3 are the best ports. Flashback versions are all worse/better in different ways
>>11396602>Big PBased
>>11396602I commend him for creating the only emulator that plays Jaguar CD games. I only ever wanted to play it for that one action/softcore porn FMV game.
>>11396229The (you)s on this board hit so much harder when you can predict what they're gonna be/fish for specific ones
>>11396746>that one action/softcore porn FMV gameAmerican Hero?Also if you're into failed console FMV porn games, check out the 3DO library:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kfe8LJAeDOY
Redpill me on retroachievements.
>>11396521>the lists are sometimes hundreds of achievements longYeah having bloated achievement lists is one of the worst things about the site. If I check a game and see that it has 300 achievements, there's no chance that I'll try to hunt for achievements even if it's a game that I love.
>>11396069>why they like recognition for doing something enjoyable rather than simply liking the gameplay itselfIt's not about recognition, having an achievement on a site as proof is just a byproduct of playing the game for enjoyment.
>>11395202Kindle has seasonal "events" with achievements now.
>>11393153Great.
>>11393153I always had a negative view on retroachievements, but I've seen that they can give interesting side-challenges instead of just being like>achievement get: finish 1-1I'd say they are worth a try if you already played the game multiple times and want to give it a new spin
10/10 on Saturn6.5/10 on PS1
>>11395936Saturn is a real 3D syste-
>>11395796Any game
>stoneys have bad tasteFeel better soon
>>11395936>>11395915mister or real hw?
>>11396031PlayStation games also had texture warping.>>11396637Real hardware.
is this game even real?
>>11394710nobody knows or cares about you
>>11394738>>11395219The skirt is very short.
>>11394710I'm surprised somehow this game got merchandise.That Jino plush looks cute.
I really enjoyed this game when it came out.I hindsight it is flawed, but it had a great idea.
>>11389248The progression is grindy as fuck. The levels are literally straight lines. The bosses are incredibly tediousLittle variety in animals Barely any action. Not an RPG
>>11389248The game should have continued on after Bulbox
>>11395526Spore
>>11390080>tiny, cheap, insignificant evolutions fully restore health, effectively removing death from the gameThat is, unless you go for the very specific "early human" evolution in which case you're permanently locked out from performing any evolution.The human form arguably isn't that good either.
Primal Rage was the better dino game
>There's nothing new in terms of game design>Final Fantasy VII is no different from the last game in terms of execution>the movie scenes are separated by much too long periods of play>the dialogue scenes are slow and boring>the plot is advanced more through a character's dialogue than his or her actions >slow system for battles >Final Fantasy VII is far from the near masterpiece that game critics and fans have been calling itHas any FF7fag been able to refute him?
>>11395914You've literally never finished SMB1 without warps and without the A+Start continue trickIt's not the hardest NES games, but SMB1 isn't easy either
>>11396585that's actually a really good take on the situation. yeah, he would've been old as fuck, like seniority. navigtr pretending he's dead to protect his peaceful last days would just make sense lol
>>11393327>why can't i speedtroon this game down to a second?>>11393731It's not always going to give you the best options.
>>11392510>Pokemon vs FF7may as well compare Madden to early CoD
George Wood should run for the US presidency
