I never played it growing up, tried it with the switch 2 release as I assume a lot of people have been doing. Dreadful, absolutely awful, just a mindless slog, one of the worst treasure games and probably the worst game nintendo published on the gamecube. The only saving grace is that it is visually quite nice.

SEQUEL HELL AT THIS POINT I WOULD SETTLE FOR THE COMPANIES TO ACKNOWLEDGE ITS EXISTENCE!!!

I dont want a sequel, its a complete story. I want a remake in an alternate dimension where remakes are 1:1 with the original but with high effort production values made by real devs instead of outsourced jeetmakes with worse visuals and gameplay/story downgrades.

The name's Link, and I'm braver than brave.
I got a wooden sword from an old man in a cave
and when my hearts are maxed out, it shoots an energy blade?
I don't know how exactly that works, but that's okay with me.

Eventually I'll find my way out of this maze

When I master the Master Sword, I'm goin' to town
on Zelda's upside-down Triforce, with one in the brown.

Nintendo has source code for basically everything they've ever done, however nobody at the company would know what to do with any of it. I've exposed this before but Nintendo doesn't program their own games, they never have and never will. A famous example that some people do know is Donkey Kong arcade, the team at Nintendo designed the game on paper and then the design documents just got shipped off to a company called Ikegami Tsushinki who actually made it reality.
Up until recently when they just outright purchased them, Nintendo outsourced all programming work to a company called SRD. SRD in basic terms made the game engines, wrote all the code and then creates what are essentially level editors and other middleware that's easy for the artists and level designers to create everything you actually see in the games. Then they'll usually have a couple basic "programmers" whose job it is to tweak minor shit that SRD already wrote so they can get the game working and feeling exactly how they want. The SRD crew often even goes uncredited in these games, usually either a generic SRD special thanks is given or they'll credit whoever was in charge of whatever given team within SRD programmed said game.

Anyway, regardless of if they have the source code for the games or not they'd have to hand off porting duties to someone else just because they don't have any in house programming talent.

>>12257215
>50 bucks a year for emulation of dripfed titles is a good deal
If retards didn't exist, Nintendo would've bankrupted several times already

They'd rather just have some random team of autistic Europeans work on emulators for their old consoles and throw as many roms as it as they can (even for shit that isn't even theirs), than bother with getting fucking 6502/z80 assembly and old ass C code for multiple games to work on Switch. It's understandable.
Even if they did go through the trouble of porting, you idiots would call it "Sovless" or some bullshit for not being exactly 1:1 the original experience.

You had public auctions for porn on canvas by the late 70s. Movie theaters showed the stuff. People absolutely had "something visual right in front of them" back then.

"Seriously, though, as the creators... how do you feel about the final dungeon of FFIII?

Sakaguchi: Right after it was released, we received a lot of complaints saying "that was way too hard, please don't do this kind of thing again. A salaryman can only play about three hours a day, so don't make dungeons that take longer than 3 hours to clear!" At this point, though, those complaints have stopped coming."

VII is the one that used the English localization as its basis. It was a rushed effort full of stiff, literal translations that inherited numerous errors from the English version. VIII is significant because it marked a major shift in Square's internal localization process for Europe; the company revamped its approach following the backlash over VII's quality. As a result, the Spanish version of VIII is often more faithful to the original Japanese dialogue and character names than the English version, boasting far more natural-sounding dialogue than its predecessor. This improved standard was maintained for subsequent European localizations of the series, although games like X had to adhere more closely to the English script to stay in sync with the voiced English dub.

>>12257164
US version make more sense if you're correct, I always thought (after the fact) that it was super out of character for squall to say something like that.

>>12254550
Are you actually confused about women dressing slutty but then getting mad about male attention? Have you ever been to a gym? This is the most realistic part of the game.

Why every game with pre-rendered background has the loss of assets ?

I'm tired of seeing this thing happening again and again.

There are those AI upscaling texture packs to "restore the backgrounds" but they don't look good, often times creating details where they doesn't exist.

>>12257132
In Blade Runner's case at least, it was likely because the uncompressed assets had a size of 1 TB. Mind you, this was the late 90s.

Worse in every way

Repetitive and boring from what I remember, with barely any story.

I think Ozzie was a lot harsher to Magus than treating him like a son
Let's also not forget that Ozzie instills such a sense of cruel-hearted entitlement in his actual children that it carries through for the next 8 generations, it's not that hard to imagine him being rough on young Magus, treating him more like a living weapon to be wielded than as a person
>>12256180
Kind of true, but also downplays the extent of the tragedies he went through
After watching his mother go insane, his entire world literally falling into cataclysm, losing his sister then being raised by a guy like Ozzie, Magus probably turned out about as well as you could expect
That he's willing to ally with the party and keeps his ultimate goal of destroying Lavos in mind above all else speaks to a sense of rationality and resolve
Not the most heroic qualities but still, at least he's not as petty as Dalton

I always wanted a proper anime series based on Chrono Trigger (not counting that goofy OVA that starred the Nu). But that ship has sailed since if they made it today it would have ugly CGI and everything would look overly shiny and polished, unlike the soulful art style of old anime.

He's a colossal dickhead but he's very strong, and the world is at stake and he is a fellow human against the common enemy.
Frog chopping his head off with Masamune is plenty justified but I also think that wouldn't be the Frog thing to do since Frog got over seething endlessly about past failure, unlike Magus. Also Magus can't travel through time unless it's by accident so abandoning him in antiquity to try and unfuck his people wouldn't really matter.

I was reading
https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Characters/MegaManClassicVillains
damm, all those villains.. they come from the future, the outer space, they appeared in minor games... yet they are not different at all to the main games' characters. they're all flat as fuck
the franchise timeline is vague as hell
the consistensy of the timeline is vague as hell
you just shoot and destroy some robots that'ts all, there is zero sense of growth, immersion. in Mario you know it's a fantasy world, so anything can happen, Mario himself is written to be just what he is - but Megaman?? he is some sort of shonen hero, but his story, his universe, is vague and flat as fuck. and so are his games

unlike >>12254965
Zero and ZX have actual growth and progression. you can actually tell what happened in Zero 1, you can actually tell what happened in Zero 2 and how it led to Zero, and so on. Sonic trilogy from the genesis managed to tell a consistent, rational story, world, geography, GROWTH. in megaman it's all the same
I remember when I played 8 decade ago, what the fuck was Duo? who the fuck cares, nothing really matters in megaman. there is no WEIGHT, and the games themselves show that

People jerk off X1 too much. Its not that much better compared to X1-X5.
