We had a good little Ecco thread going here: >>12363578Tl;dr the game was hard as nails at the end and very few anons beat it legit apparently. We also got the Chuck Persons music born out of EccoJams, which I had never heard of before but apparently pretty popular: https://youtu.be/JfXOem1EERg?si=JMprl8Kc9ovIJQo9So what are the continuing thoughts on Ecco and its sequels? Anyone have any personal stories with it? I discovered Ecco through an emulator on my og xbox where it was Ecco themed and I first heard the God tier music. Currently ordered everything needed to hack my 3ds just to play the 3d version which sounds awesome (couple anons say the M2 port is really good). We didnt get into Defender of the Future much. Any love for that game?
Never played the dc game but listening to the ost makes me want to try it. It was tim follin's last game. Also when I tried the 3DS version (specifically Sega 3D Fukkoku volume 1) the 3D effect only worked correctly on the japanese rom. I don't know why.
Oh hey I made the original ecco thread, glad you liked it. It's honestly a really tough game but a dopamine hit when you overcome the absolute bullshittingly frustrating game design and tedious tasks to progress.
>>12397382So you made both the Tempo youtube thread and the Ecco youtube thread. And you’re avatarfagging on top of that. How fortunate for you that the tranny jannies don’t delete garbage posts or threads anymore unless you break the one cardinal rule of calling the Master System by the wrong name.
>>12397506Cry about it, fag.
>>12397382kill yourself
And the last thread was so nice… guess we’re not gonna get that here. How unfortunate I was looking forward to more opinions and stories about people’s experience w Ecco and especially touch on Defender of the Future because we didn’t really discuss that to much. Shame
>>12398037Hide and report shitposters, don't give 'em the headspace anon.
isn't there already time travel in the first ecco the dolphin? how did they expand that beyond going to Jurassic era oceans?
>>12398162Yes, in the first game you jump into an Atlantean time machine and travel into Jurassic era to steal one of the Asterite's globes and bring it to the future Asterite because time shenanigans The second game expands on that with time travel to the far distant future as well where you meet hyper-evolved dolphin descendants.
>>12398247What is the story w defender of the future? Did you enjoy it? It’s pretty cheap I may pick it up for the ps2… although I do have a Dreamcast I never use, and it’s probably expensive for the DC. Can’t really emulate right at this moment but love to hear your and anyone else’s opinion on it.
>>12398256It's sort of a reboot-ish, the Vortex are replaced by The Foe, the Asterite with the Guardian (who was created by dolphins and humans) and a bunch of other changes. It's not bad, but it's almost like a sequel to a different series.
>>12398289Interesting. I think another anon mentioned the music is really good and it was someone’s last gaming composition. Maybe it’s worth it just for that but I guess I could just check out the music on YT.
https://youtu.be/I2sS51m1s3k?si=0PpoPOuvGosSDkdbOkay this OST is good. Probably my favorite song from it, I’ve heard it in some ps2 music comps I think for relaxation.
>>12398308>someone’sTim Follin, who's a pretty popular vidjeo game composer, known for doing unconventional things for video games, like adding sound effects to the Ghosts'n'Goblins theme. This is my favorite bit of his:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h5w08b80NHg
>>12398437Wait, that's not the right track., Everyone on Youtube has track 1 from the HVSC uploaded as "track 4" for some reason:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W1M6Y9mnFP8
>>12398437I meant no disrespect to Tim. Honestly, so much was going on at that age I didn’t learn many names of composers outside Koji Kondo and Nobuo Uematsu. Koji Kondo was just kinda catchy to say so easy to remember and then the god of FF music, whose last name I probably still butcher. I’ll look into more of Follin’s stuff but I’m sure I’ve probably heard most of it without knowing it was him (although I’ve never played a ghost and goblins game).
>>12398871>I meant no disrespect to TimI didn't read any into it, you're all good, anon
TIM ITS JUST PICTIONARY
>>12398037Time heals, slow boards encourage good content, ignore speedball shitheads.
>>12400810Doing my best but the last thread got autosagged for no reason and then this one immediately fills up w asshats. Makes me wonder. Anyway, was enjoying that thread hence me starting a new one but the discussion just hasn’t picked up the same. All my stuff to hack the 3ds is almost here tho so hopefully soon (if I can find the e-shop games somewhere online) I’ll be playing it for myself.. in 3-d d d d d d d d!
Is it pronounced like Echo or Exo?
>>12397628Cry
>>12402391Echo, obviously.
>>12402391how the fuck do you get "x" out of 2 "c"s? ESL?
>>12401495>autosagged for no reasonall threads get autosaged after 14 days. it's one of the very few boards, if not the only one, that does that shit. i don't understand the reasoning behind it especially when it's already on the slow side here.
>>12402474The same way you get it out of accent, or do you pronounce it like ackent? It could also be pronounced Eso like in flaccid.
>>12402480Well that’s just dumb lol! This board is way to slow for that -ish
The fucking queen is a cunt and a half to fight.
>>12403137It's easy when you know how to do it and go slow. The problem is that you can get OHKO very easily if you don't know how to do it, and the game is overly punishing for a failure (sending you back to that godawful long autoscrolling piece of shit level)This is one of those instances where the game is so poorly designed and anti-player that IMO it's valid to use the password to skip right to the boss fight
>>12403250You didn't beat the game.
