For you, is it worth it to start from the first game in every franchise? I have the urge to do that, but I feel that sometimes it ends up with me not playing what I actually want, and as a consequence, I play less games. I know that doing it enhances the experience later when playing the "best" entries, but it sometimes is such a drag to even think about playing 5+ whole games before getting to what you are actually interested in

We must promote and adhere to maximalism. Everything you are interested in must be started from the beginning and the beginning only, and only an order of release must be followed. This is the only way you can follow the continuing story.

I played FF1 at least 3 times, maybe more, and only realized that NPCs only ever said one box worth of text max last year when a friend mentionned it in passing.

It never felt to me like something was missing.
On the contrary I hate when 5th or 6th gen RPGs have WORDS WORDS WORDS WORDS WORDS just to say nothing. Just because they could. What I'm getting at is the opposite issue is worse.

Thoughts on Misadventures of Tron Bonne? I'm liking it so far, but it's a hell of a departure from Legends.

>Why'd SNK do it
For multislot MVS, I'm guessing they thought it would just be easier for operators to know that whatever they bought would jest werk with their MVS cab, and not have to worry about rotating monitors/accidentally putting a vertical game in with horizontal games. I'm not aware of any of SNK's cabs having an easy rotation mech, which would make things even more frustrating.

How do I go about this myself, can I just install from the iso and go for gold?
>>
find the website that has the patches
and install all the patches
then install the loader thing
then run the exe
the game will crash
run it again
itll work perfectly
its a process.exe
trust the process

Straight from iso might not work, there was a pesky thing on I think vista and later where the copy protection was acting up and would crash the game.

This. Just did it last year. Played both of the sp campaigns and went to the same servers again that I used to play on 15 years ago. And some of the old guys were there, too. Back then, those servers were great, really organized with appropriate rules to make sure everyone is working together. They didn't have these strict rules anymore but it was still loads of fun. Can only speak for EU though. Are there still servers in the US?

Oh god, flashback to that loud crashing drum cymbal noise when you died. Biggest jump scare in any game ever.

It's one of those things where if you happened to have already investigated the garbage chute, you can pretty quickly put two and two together and at least guess that maybe tossing that down the chute will dislodge the bag. There really wouldn't seem to be much other purpose for an unused box of drink cans.

The won't do saga because all these remakes were meant to be very cheap and aimed at switch 1 users. That's why the look like they are from 3 generation back.

>>12024981
Its all about money, they want to fleece senile boomers for their nostalgia but they know panzer dragoon is a literal who on the market so they outsource to a polish studio for dirt cheap. If it bombs they can say oh well people don't care about these old games

It's literally the original game running in an emulator with an optional graphics overlay. It's hard not to fuck that up, but as we've seen with Tomb Raider and Soul Reaver's remasters it can still happen.

I wish Sega didn't hire clearly subpar dev studios to make their remakes (the House of the Dead ones are atrocious) and instead built a team with at least some of the original developers, but doing the former most likely is way cheaper than the latter and alas whoever is in charge wants to produce cheap cashgrabs.

So best case scenarios given the circumstances...
A) Zwei's and the following remakes somehow sell enough to convince Sega to produce a higher budget proper new game for the series, bringing back Yukio Futatsugi etc.
B) The MegaPixel Studio staff finally learns how to make a remake with a visual style that is aesthetically faithful to the original and doesn't bring new flaws.
C) It sells like absolute shit and whoever is in charge at Sega gets tenderly told to fuck off, and his replacement does a better job.

>turn off TV
>leave console on
I did this constantly as a kid, I'd leave games running overnight and all day if I had to. My parents never noticed as long as I switched the TV away from the game input and turned it off. Even if they turned the TV on, they wouldn't see a game so they'd be none the wiser. Savestates allow me to emulate this experience.
>>
>>12025021
>Obviously how much changes varies depending on the game and what you're trying to do in it, but I don't get why people can't admit the obvious truth that using save states to remove or reduce consequences in games changes the challenge of a game. People twist themselves into knots denying the undeniable.
What I don't understand is why people give a shit so much that others do it, or why people need to "defend" that they do it. Like holy shit people, it's fucking videogames, it does not actually matter.
>>
Thanks guys, I've decided I'm going to start using save states now purely because of the foamy drooling rage that some you are exhibiting because other people are having fun in their own way
>>
>Is time management bad?
>>
>>12026146
I totally agree with you, that's why it's even stranger to me. Saying it makes the game easier or changes how the game is naturally plays isn't the same as saying there's anything immoral about playing that way. It's a single player game, you're not hurting anybody else by doing whatever you want with it. Mod the game, use save states, cheats, or anything else if you enjoy it.
