Is it worth playing or should one skip straight to the remake?
>>
>>12546860
Just play the remake
>>
>>12546860
The remake is balanced different in the end with new weapons and equipment. The remake also adds a way to sequence break in the mid game which feels like it's designed for people who already know the original.

I consider it almost a different game. Original has more soul.
>>
You should play it and find out
>>
>>12546892
Was playing Returns and my game crashed when I talked to some dude in a shack 20 hours in. My save file got corrupted because of this and had to restart the game. Gideon's seal of quality everyone.
>>
>>12547215
Always use savestate backups when playing translations. At least use an emulator that autosaves every 30 mins
>>
>>12546903
This.
>>
>>12546860
The original is the greatest JRPG on the system and thus a must-play. The remake doesn't hold a candle to it (or the second game for that matter).
>>
>>12546860
The original is better. I didn't finish Returns.
>>
>>12548293
>(or the second game for that matter)

Yeah I can't agree with that, but at the same time I can't explain why except that they really nailed the atmosphere in the second game.
>>
>>12546860
never played the remake and never felt the need to, original is amazing and a must play if you care about the genre at all.
>>
>>12548293
>The original is the greatest JRPG on the system
things people who hate jrpgs say
>>
>>12548827
It's in the top 5 alongside [your favourite FF], [your favourite DQ], Megami Tensei II and Mother
>>
>>12548828
>Mother
>Mother
>Mother
lmao. i rest my case
>>
>>12548830
Mother shits all over the other nes rpgs, massive open overworld on top of an incredible unique setting and killer soundtrack, easily the best rpg on the system
>>
>>12548830
Fucker

Fucker

>>12549106
>massive open overworld
gating off areas is, in fact, good game design.
>incredible unique setting
that looks like ass
>killer soundtrack
a lie

as i said, you don't like fc jrpgs. the top 5 fc rpgs (if you only allow 1 game per series) are

ff1
dq4
goemon gaiden 2
silva saga
chaos world
>>
>>12550513
>goemon
>silva saga
>chaos world
>the second worse Famicom DQ and a massive step down from 3
>ff 3 but worse
Damn contrarian just for the sake of it
>>
>>12550542
>the best looking fc game
>the best dq clone on the system
>an innovative, experimental masterpiece
>he likes ff3, the one that slaps a massive fuck you dungeon on the table and forces you to use two classes
genuinely curious as to what you think is the worst fc dq game
>>
>>12550513
Xenogears a shit
>>
>>12548827
>>12548830
>>12549106

>>12550542
any neutral observers take note, if you engage with the hyperbolic dregs of this board you gain nothing. Do not create discussions like this its psychopathic. When you become so far gone you get into flame wars over good games its just over.
>>
>>12550602
It’s bots anon. That and ALL of Chan is an essential fed honey pot because of /pol/. There are still a few good threads, join us in /vrpg/
>>
>>12550598
true, but what does that have to do with my post?
>>12550602
>good games
>mother 1
imagine simping for a game you've never played/ have no frame of reference to compare to
>>12550627
cope, but join you i shall
>>
>>12550629
>he didn't play the earthbound zero rom
Zoom zoom
>>
>>12550635
is that not what mother 1 is?
>>
>>12550629
It MUST be said.
>>
>>12550635
Go deeper into Ness’s subconscious
>>
I kinda wish I'd played it first because I can't be bothered to play it after having played Super. I can really not be bothered with 8 bit RPGs normally though. But MM is a late one with a very advanced design.
>>
>>12550686
>But MM is a late one with a very advanced design.
you mean it's full of sfc tier gimmicks used to make it distinct from dq games, something that nobody cares about now that these games are essentially free?
>>
>>12550693
sfc tier meant advanced at that time yeah
>>
>>12550712
it meant gimmicky trash
>>
>>12547083
No. Please refer to a YouTube video before consulting a Wikipedia and after a few hours on a reddit then you can begin to form an opinion about your experience with a game you've never played.
