Is this still /vr/'s favorite game?
>>12499302Nah it's still Persona IV. FFVIII is like top 10 though
>>12499302Yeah, it's still a favorite game for me to poop on!

Great music for people who like comfortable, light relaxing tracks.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Jaq6uAVlL0
there is no favorite /vr/ game. every thread about every game will have half the thread with people shitting on it. especially ffviii, infamous brainlet filter
>>12499302No, Star Ocean 2 is my favorite /vr/ JRPG. Terranigma #2. FF8 might be 3rd or 4th.
>>12499630It's true there's no game that some faggot won't pretend not to like but it does make me wonder: which game would get the lowest percentage of contrarian pushback? Like, a game where 90% of the board would agree it's good and only a few tryhard faggots would argue otherwise?I feel like Mario 3, Castlevania 1 and maybe something like Revenge of Shinobi might get (mostly) unanimous approval but I'm sure someone will chime in to explain why they all suck.
>>12499678these days, the younger generations will say super mario world is superior and shinobi iii is the preferred game. and castlevania is an endless debate that never moves. there is no consensus because there is no stable set of posters. there are a handful of autists who will samefag endlessly to smear a game if peoe seem to like it too much, and vice versa. nothing here is what it seems
>>12499678Why do you care
>>12499690I don't, really. This is all just for the lulz. But I am genuinely curious if there are any games that penetrate the autism >>12499681 is describing and compel even shitposters to be honest for once and admit that they're good. Probably not, but if there is I'd like to know which ones.
Im kind of reluctant to replay ever since I found out you can just cheese the game through drawing/not leveling up or some shit.I hope I can replay it sometime before I die but I just dont know
>>12499578Boomer board.
>>12499615Beautiful backgrounds, too. I'm still angry at the fact they seemingly can't find the assets for an actual HD remaster and just gave everything a blurry filter and called it good. The "HD" version looks worse than the original disk version did on my ps3
>>12499657star ocean 2 is debatebly my number one also and ffviii is easy top 5 and this post is making me want to try terranigma again but last time I did it bored me.
>>12499767I feel like at this point A.I is good enough to upscale the backgrounds is it not?
>>12499678halfway through your post I was thinking mario 3 and castlevania 1 as well. those are so expertly crafted with no glaring weaknesses you really cant even try to be contrarian about them without looking like a massive retard. you would think a zelda game would be there too but it seems like no one agrees which zeldas are good and which are shit. DKC2 is pretty beloved too, hard to find something wrong there. The sacred cows I grew up with personally (mario 64, OOT, FFVII) seem to have a lot of contrarian haters these days.
>>12499681these "debates" largely only exist among autists with nothing better to sperg out onthere's little to be gained by constantly comparing and constrasting games and then proclaiming such and such is the bestif you're playing the games, you already know what you like, and shouldn't need to consult online strangers to validate your feelingsI just feel like some anons live in a different fucking reality, always referencing decades old forum posts and seeing every contrary opinion as a personal attackthey make up an argument, then a hypothetical enemy, and then lash out at their own thoughtsit's genuinely sad to see
>>12499793i see a lot of autists who are concerned over sacred games getting shit on, who will then have a major meltdown or a meltdown and total loss of reason when a game they dislike is raised too much. there is the issue here that people feel it is there job to personaly defend a game, and invent theories that anons have infiltrated the board to forcefully push opinion of games. it’s all needless panic. firstly this place is dead. second, like you said, nobody really cares and will form their own opinion. the purpose of the board is to lash out and waste time and energy, and feel defeated that it’s all hopeless argument.
>>12499789I always thought LTTP was perfection of the Zelda formula and an unimpeachable classic but apparently some people do not
>>12499817if OOT didnt exist I think it would be considered that but you will always have a large group of people who consider that one the real classic and thus have to put down alttp to make their favorite look better. I am OOT fag myself but I still think alttp is a masterpiece too.
>>12499767>>12499785Yes and no. I can empathize with you.They do have an answer to "why," though; SQUARE had a fire that burnt files and equipment at their office and they literally lost the "original" files for the majority of these backgrounds. Some 3rd party artists do have a few of their own images, which they drew, saved elsewhere, but if it was at SQUARE in that fire, it's gone.I'll claim that "Moguri Mod" upscaling did fantastic work with FF9, though. A similar job for FF8 would easily get my approval.
>>12499849>Moguri modDamn seems bretty nicehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tF7dLNryRvo
Yeah, probably that or VII. Purely subjective, they're really janky games. And it's not nostalgia because I had gone through nes, snes, and n64 and didn't pay a FF til '01, I have more nostalgia for many games, alttp and oot for examples. I just really enjoy the PSX FF games, I play them each once a year, yet still love them.It's gaming comfort food.
