>used fast forward to speed up travel and combat
>used geometry correction to get rid of jittery graphics
>discover place where you can farm gold from spiders
>used toggled turbo keys to farm 15k gold in 10 minutes
>completely snapped the game economy in half due to gold farm

Did I beat the game /vr/?

If you could do it on real hardware with a turbo controller, seems legit to me.

FF is a cheat

Dude nobody should give a fuck except you
>>
>>12121506
>doesn't impact the game's difficulty, logic or mechanics
>it just speeds up the tedium
FF isn't cheating outside of speedruns.
>>
>>12121513
Yes it does, what does fast forwarding do retard? Increase the framerate. Older games act weird with an increased framerate i broke lsd dream emulator that way.
>>
>>12121550
>increase the framerate
depends on the emu, it could just be running the whole thing faster so the "internal" framerate is the same as normal whereas your perception is that of a sped up "external" framerate
>>
It's only cheating if you cheat yourself out of some good old fun, sport.
>>
>>12121513
>doesn't impact the game's difficulty
Would you do the same thing on normal speed? Because as said in the OP he broke the game in half by doing this.
>>
>>12121513
if you cant do it on actual hardware its cheating. Doesnt matter how you justify it in your head.
>>
>>12121821
don't be mad because i value my time more than you do.
>>
>>12121494
the way you accidentally shake the camera at the same time you're getting hit makes it feel like King's Field had way better hit effects than it actually did.
>>
>>12121494
KF1 is like 4 hours long and gold is a non-issue - economy? lol - because the good gear is purely pickups.

If you had fun, who cares, but I feel like you just made it take longer lol
>>
>>12121494
>durrr Kings Field controls badly
This is the biggest exposer for people not actually playing retro vidya lmao. Kings Field has BY FAR the best handling out of any first person PS1 game. You just haven't actually played any of the others to know that - because you only tried KF after your Dark Souls youtuber mentioned mentioned it.
>>
>>12121838
im not mad that you cheated, you are allowed to spend your time in any way you want. I just want to clarify that its still cheating. Nothing wrong with cheating in a single player game as long as you dont pretend you beat it without cheating.

I actually like King's Field controls. I just don't like slow backtracking.

>>
>>12121821
You can though? You just don't get the benefit of fast forwarding.
>>
>>12122147
?
>>12122173
Yeah you can farm gold on enemies if you want, thats not cheating. If you fast forward your emulator youre cheating. Pretty simple stuff I dont know why this is controversial.
>>
If you have to cheat, fast foward or use save state to enjoy a game than it was always shit and not worth your time
>>
>>12122181
OP is clearly disappointed that he used all of these things after finally completing the game.
I've never finished a game and felt to need to go online and seek validation for how I played it.
He wants everyone to tell him how he did it was valid, but the fact is that he lost a bit of the magic, and I think he knows that.

Not only did you not beat the game, you never even played it.

Went back in time and aborted himself lol

u got baited super dog (yum yum)
>>
>>12121494
Is there ever a reason to have 15K in King's Field? That sounds like an awful lot of grinding for a game that doesn't even require it.
>>
I, too, am a FROM fan!
>>
>>12121494
Nice 'eck but where is the 'ick?
>>
>>12121494
>Did I beat the game
no the gold farm is merely an exploit. none of the other things you did mattered.
>>
>>12123564
You can easily buy out both shops' inventories by the end of the game with normal gameplay. It's actually pretty well balanced (albeit on the easier side) in terms of gear progression.

Ok kek. Enjoy your vidya, anon. Thanks for bumping the Kings Field thread.
>>
>>12122181
>Yeah you can farm gold on enemies if you want, thats not cheating. If you fast forward your emulator youre cheating.
SO it's not cheating if there's zero difference but it takes longer? What fucking tardo logic lmao. No wonder no one takes you retards remotely serious.
>>
>>12123620
From where? Identify yourself.
>>
>>12125136
retroachievements are pretty gay honestly. I thought we play retro vidya to get away from modern faggotry? Plus I heard a ton of them are just retardedly difficult
>>
>>12126132
>thought we play retro vidya to get away from modern faggotry?
Like I said in my other comment - achievements are a nice way to add new content to a game you've already played many times without actually modding or altering the game at all.
>Plus I heard a ton of them are just retardedly difficult
Good. I'm not doing them just to inflate some arbitrary number lol. They're supposed to be challenges, imo.
>>
>>12126146
A stupid list of cheevos some tranny came up with isn't new content. Personally I'd rather experience new games rather than do some retarded bullshit but you do you
>>
>>12126149
I personally don't see how it's any different than going for all of those random challenges that people would come up with on forums back in the day.
>I'd rather experience new games rather than do some retarded bullshi
Anon, there aren't exactly new retro games being made. A lot of us have exhausted the games we're interested in a decade+ ago, and just want to play the games we know we love.
>>
>>12126153
I get it. But there's always something you've missed, what we have is already enough for a lifetime. Also, what is your favorite KF game? Your favorite From first person dungeon crawler in general?
>>
>>12126168
>But there's always something you've missed
Yeah true, I have been getting into shmups recently, I guess was mostly referring to "RPG/dungeon" style games.
>Also, what is your favorite KF game?
1 JP, by far. I honestly feel that 2 and 3 are more of a chore to play than anything.
>Your favorite From first person dungeon crawler in general?
Honestly probably KF1 JP kek, but if you count Might and Magic 6 as a dungeon crawler, despite it having open world segments, then it's a tie between the two.

Oh, I missed your clarification on "From" dungeon crawler - but I keep my answer lol.

Despite my problems with KF 2 and 3, they do have some beautiful scenery.
>>
>>12126185
I liked KF1 a lot, but 2 has that interconnected level design that lets you skip stuff if you want to, which I greatly enjoy. 3 I never finished but intend to, I know you get to explore parts of 1 in it which is such a cool fucking callback. Shadow Tower is incredible and KF4 seems to have the same interconnected design, I just started it.

If you haven't tried it, Ultima for PS1 got translated and with it being fully 3D now it definitely felt close to KF. Was a great playthrough, I honestly preferred it over the PC version overall.

You actually play jank with physics tied to the animation frame loop instead of, you know, being independent from them so shit works regardless of fps? What a loser.

In theory if the emulator were 100% accurate fast-forward wouldn't even fuck up the games with shitty physics-tied-to-render-loop systems.
