I am leaving on a trip next weekend. I have my Anbernic RGSP loaded up with Suikoden 1 and 2 thanks to a recommend from an anon here on /vr/. If I end up not liking them, I have Metroid Fusion and Spyro 2 to fall back on. I have only played Metroid Dread and absolutely LOVED it, so I am sure I will enjoy the older titles in the series. (Playstation kid, never owned a nintendo console until I became an adult)

I wanted this game to be good so badly when I was younger, I was so desperate for any kind of modern Batman game. I kept coming back to it hoping I was missing something or that it would click because it had potential. There is some cool stuff in here for the time but it's just kind of a piece of shit unfortunately.

Who cares about sales? What do you think this is /biz/? Trying to fight console wars that were won or lost 20-30 years ago is retarded. The consoles that won and were popular are cheap so we own them all. The less popular consoles are in short supply but we have already played everything on the popular ones so we pay up. While the adults play the games you pretend this is gamefaqs in 2002 because you've never mentally progressed beyond that point.

Nomad was introduced 3 years before Red and Blue were stateside. There was a window there where the GB was fading from relevance and another handheld could have taken the crown. Unfortunately, the only other rival handhelds introduced during that timeframe was the Game.Com.

blood omen has adequately executed gameplay that you have to work with to get through to the next story point. it comes from an era where we put up woth jank because the game itself is unique and the presentation was great. it’s not that you lie to yourself and say it’s okay, it’s that you put up with weird control and lackluster elements because the kino factor is high and the atmosphere. this was before games like ff7. it was an important step toward the kinomatic that became prevalent. i played it recently abd found it a but tedious in parts but i finished it and was happy to revisit it

This is the only series where story quality and gameplay quality are inverse curves as the series progresses. Defiance almost has what I'd call good gameplay.

The thing that bewilders me about this is the retardation of people who don't understand that gaming is the most expressionist medium that exists. You'd think if you wanted to make art games you'd get that and play with the medium and its strenghts but you try making it a movie instead because movies and video games like Super Star Wars are all your goldfish brain can understand.
It would be very, very easy to structure a game in a way that makes you either not think about killing the dog that much or actively want to because of how the character's perspective of the world is framed, then much much later recontextualize it with someone else's perspective (something called an unreliable narrator, something these "smart" people would recognize if they ever read a fucking book) and do precisely this but in a way that's subtle and natural and actually fucking eumilates how it's like to be an entirely different person. But also these kinds of people typically need to shout to the heavens how they feel about everything and wouldn't ever want anything to be left open to interpretation so potentially they do understand all of these things and chose to sidestep them.

Yeah I don't get it either. Why do people get so assmad when the game "blames" them for something? It's just a game. It's the intended experience, you're playing out a story of someone making bad decisions. No one's actually attacking you personally you autist.

The Sega Saturn gave me some of the best memories of my life.

I was born in 1957. My childhood and teens were marred by horrific abuse. I moved into my own apartment for the first time in 1975, but was a depressed, lonely man with no friends. I stayed that way for almost 20 years.

In 1995, I made some online friends with my new internet connection who lived close to me. From 1995 to 2000, the three of them would frequently come over and play Sega Saturn games with me. I was young enough to have no significant health problems and my friends brought more meaning to my life than I ever knew possible.

The golden times didn't last forever. My friend group disintegrated through out the 2000s and the last time I spoke to one was 2008. I was in a car wreck in 2002 that left me with a permanent limp. In 2009 I was diagnosed with cancer; I survived but have had intense nerve pain and fatigue ever since.

But I am so thankful for those years and the friends I shared them with. I can't say it was a bad life. Those years from 1995 until somewhere in the 2000s made it all worth it.

Ok, this shit must be vibe coded, that's goin too far, the Wii was just a slightly (emphasis on slightly) more faster GameCube with a gimmick motion control feature and actual DVD storage but no DVD player nor HDMI output for flat tvs when everyone started to using those which was a bit fuck up.

There are some special quests that reward you with special artifacts. These are better than regular weapons and armors, but generally they aren't worth your time because you can pretty much replicate their effects by enchanting your own stuff. The most useful for me is the book that gives you 30 skill points.

...That's it? The Fighters Guild and Thieves Guild unlocks are terrible.
Mages Guild alone gives you so much cool shit, and Temples have some very useful QoL stuff as well.
>>
>>12878146
Free inn AND cheap weapon repairs. And they give you quests. Which you need anyway.
>Mages Guild alone gives you so much cool shit
Unless you specifically build your character to be a mage at creation by picking the magic perks, you'll never get to a high enough level in any of the magic skills to unlock those perks. Even if you are, magic skills are much harder to level. Fighters' Guild is more accessible.

>Unless you specifically build your character to be a mage at creation by picking the magic perks, you'll never get to a high enough level in any of the magic skills to unlock those perks
Magic is much easier to grind than combat skills. Just cast a bunch of cheap spells, sleep, repeat. It's based on the number of casts, so you want them to be as cheap as possible.

Go into the crypts, they got cool stuff in them.
