These games killed Pokemania and solidified the franchise as not for masculine children. If you were a male with a reasonable level of coolness you just went right back to X-Men since the 00s movies were out

i had a bunch of good CRT monitors but ended up selling them to scalpers because all my social circle saw them as useless junk and convinced me to threw them away, i had nobody to reinforce me in my hobby and the reasons i had them to begin with

They are fags who weren't going to finish shit anyway. One year had passed since they teased "near completion!! get hype!!" when someone else posted something actually playable. And thank fuck for that.

If they, against all odds and evidence, were going to actually release something, but decided against it because someone else used a machine translation? Even bigger faggots. If they had something better, it would of course replace the machine translation as the preferred patch. It had no impact on their work. The truth is they had nothing, they're useless, and their contribution of literally-nothing is worth 0% of what someone else whipped up on a whim.

Anybody here remember Gorky 17 (Odium in North America)? It was a Polish made, horror, tactical game from 1999. It follows a group of NATO operatives, infiltrating a Polish town overrun with monsters and mutants. It switches from point and click exploration and item management to turn based combat when encountering enemies. People describe it as a marriage between Resident Evil (during exploration, puzzles and inventory management) and XCOM (during combat encounters). It has a leveling and RPG system. It looks like a PS1 game, using 3D characters and objects, superimposed over detailed 2D enviroments and backgrounds (a la early RE games). The music, enviroments, characters and monster designes vary from solid to excellent.

Okay so I just pirated it. Game seems cool enough but I'm almost out of healing items.
Am I supposed to spend the whole game on the brink of death?

in the early game you will often be short of ammo and healing stuff if you're too wasteful. it gets better later but dont expect an easy peasy game.

The battles aren't difficult, but I use a lot of melee so I'm bound to get hit a lot.
I think I'll uninstall, it's not fun despite being interesting.

X to doubt, but to answer your denial Russia did attempt to join NATO in the 00's as an equal partner to the US. GW Bush was supposedly open to the idea initially but later declined. It's a quite revealing story with implications of sorts.

The first version has that janky Amiga demoscene style parallax, with one foreground, one background, and a raster line gradient behind everything using the back screen color.

the music is really, really good. but besides that theres really nothing about this game that is better than x4 or 8. the boss fights, level design and power ups in those games are all way more fun. Im gonna play megaman x next and I get the feeling its gonna be the same story with that one. face the truth and admit it, MM peaked on ps1.

False.

It's not a difficult game. This is not an issue.

What even is this complaint? It's just more things to shoot at.
>X4 which is full of boring straight lines
The X series are action games first, with less emphasis on platforming than MMClassic games.

Your webm literally shows what I'm talking about, you just lack reading comprehesion. It takes a quarter of a second for MM in the NES game to reach his key frame, and it takes an ENTIRE second MM8 because of that shitty looking animation. Animations affect visual response.
>>
>>12257126
He's already jumping, and both of them jump the same number of times. The animation's frames are completely separate from the actual jumping register, you imbecile.
You can't git gud at the easiest MMClassic game so you resort to complaining about non-issues.
>>
>>12257134
Why is it so hard for you to comprehend that animations affect how the gameplay feels? That is basic game design. When MM11 was being made initially the animations were shitty similarly to MM8's, people complained about it and the devs changed it.

What you're talking about is seperate but with that said, what you're saying isn't even true. You had to wait at the end of the first jump so that both 8 and classic can match, because 8's jump is more floaty and takes a longer. Even when you spam the button at the end 8's jumps are more floaty and longer. Like I said though that wasn't what I was talking about, you brought this up.
