Great visuals and sounds, but man what a stinker in every other way. Awful level design, horrible hitboxes, awful fucking enemies and bosses that spongy as hell, annoying movement where you have to run into enemies to aim at them, no way to strafe, diagonals are annoying as fuck because you have to hit a precise diagonal then lift your thumb up perfectly from both directions at the exact same time, frustrating power down system. This game just fucking blows. Mercs, Shock Troopers, and the top-down Contra levels are basically the same concept but executed 10x better.
I stopped liking this game now
Another day, another game that filtered you. So pathetic.
>went into a SNES le hidden gem expecting it to be goodThere's your problem. Twinkle Tale on Mega Drive is everything this game wanted to be.
>>12554327>Mega DriveIt's always the bongaloids.
>>12553461>diagonals are annoying as fuck because you have to hit a precise diagonal then lift your thumb up perfectly from both directions at the exact same time,Aieeee. I can't adapt. Save me strafing, where da twin stick support?
>>12554436It's funny how OP has been filtered several times by games that require positioning. Must be a low IQ thing.
>>12553461>SlowROM gameNeat, I love wading through tar.
>>12553461>diagonals are annoying as fuck because you have to hit a precise diagonal then lift your thumb up perfectly from both directions at the exact same timeThis isn't a problem if your pad isn't shit
>>12554442https://romhackplaza.org/romhacks/pocky-rocky-u-fastrom-snes/
>>12554436>>12553461Yeah the controls are clunky and benefit from going slow and even backwards. I much prefer twin stick shooters, or even something like Twinkle Tale or Elemental Master.
>>12553461You are just bad at single stick shooters. This game is great. You've got so many options: sliding, hitting projectiles back, bombs, multiple power up upgrade paths, you can do levels slowly to collect all the power ups and methodically killing every enemy or try to skip encounters using speed.Plus the art direction is memorable and great.But you had to be a whiny bitch on one of the few places on the internet where you can actually discuss these smaller titles. You don't have an appreciation for that or your fellow readers. You just use it as a dumping ground for that you lost in a 30 year old tv toy and felt but hurt.
>>12554831>>12554439>>12554436I have no death clears of Mercs, Shock Troopers, and all the mainline Contra and Slug games lmaoSingle stick is not the issue
>>12554880The issue is you're retarded and have shit taste. You feel the need to remind us every day for some reason, but we already know.
>>12554885It's just another trash hidden gem hyped by zoomer retards playing on NSO with rewind, solely due to visuals and sounds. Gameplay and design doesn't even register with these tards
>>12554887That's nice dear. Cry again when another game filters you and damages your tard ego.
>>12554890The insult falls a bit flat when I have double the clears of everyone else ITT combined
>>12554926What a badass. We all care.
>>12554927I'm not saying you should, just don't keep spamming >FILTERED>SKILL ISSUEAny time a shitty game you like is called out, you fucking sperg
>>12554947>grrr STOP CALLING ME FILTERED!!! I CLEARED METAL SLUG!Filtered autist lmao.
>>12554949>well substantiated and level-headed critique through playing the game on original hardware without outside influence from someone who is white, 130+ IQ and has extensive gaming experience (beat 1000+ games, and no-death cleared 100+ games)>you start throwing a temper tantrum and just spamming "FILTERED!!", "SKILL ISSUE!!", "LOW IQ!!!" when that clearly isn't the case hereYou have autism. It's okay for someone to not think your shitty toy is as fun as you do.
>>12554979>well substantiated and level-headed Lol no. Literally the only thing you said that isn't "thing is shit" is about the diagonals, and that can be said of any game in which using diagonals is important and is most likely more of an issue with your pad than with the game.
>>12554985>can be said of any game in which using diagonalsNo, it can't... and I explained why you fucking moron. Funny how this is the only game that is the issue
>>12554985Ahh, the same controller I've no death cleared 100+ games on is the issue..
>>12554979It must suck basing your entire life around video games and being an elite, hardcore badass gamer, then getting constantly filtered and genuinely crying over it. Honestly that's not even a unique phenomenon now that I think about it. There's plenty of delusional losers like you, if it makes you feel any better.
>>12554995I have a well paying job, a family, and only average around 20 hours of gaming a week but project harder, please.
>>12554998That's actually less believable than your incredible video game endeavors or you being white.
>>12555003Almost like your irrelevant opinion has no effect on reality
>>12555006The sheer lack of self awareness would be staggering if it wasn't so expected by now.
>>12555008You are the one so pressed by an opinion. You are free to leave the thread at any time, but that would require swallowing your pride which you are clearly incapable of doing
>>12555009Your 1 billion clears... yet this game filtered you. Has the ultimate gamer been beaten? No, the game is obviously at fault.
Kiki Kaikai is also terrible. Good thing they got their act together with Wild Guns and dropped an absolute banger.
>>12555012I am talking about the quality of the game, not the difficulty... or do you think the only reason that someone could ever not like a game is because it's too hard and they got filtered, in which case... you are one dumb motherfucker
>>12555015Every one of your complaints is about how the game is too hard. Literally, objectively, unironically filtered.
>>12555018See >>12555015>or do you think the only reason that someone could ever not like a game is because it's too hard and they got filtered, in which case... you are one dumb motherfucker
>>12555020When your complaints are that the aiming is too hard and you need strafing... yeah I'm thinking you're a filtered little prissy bitch. Happens to you often for someone who claims to be great at games.
>>12555025It's the other way around. Because I'm top 99.99th percentile of gaming skill, you can rest assured that any complaints are inherent flaws of the game rather than skill issue or filtered.
>>12555035Of course. The mighty autist faggot of /vr/ could never be filtered... he just recognizes the flaws nobody else can see because he's that brilliant.
>>12555014wild guns is awesome but I've played it so much that it's way too easy now and score attacking isn't very satisfying because of how random high-scoring is and forced combo-breakers like the guys you have to punch to get rid of
>>12554880If that's the case you have my apologies.I honestly can't imagine someone with proficiency disliking this game series. Espcially prefering the Top Down of Contra to this. Neo Contra sure. That is one of the best overhead shooters ever. But the rest are so basic. They do have a nice flow which I guess must be something that reject about Pocky n Rocky.
>>12555105I just did a no death run recently, only on normal because hard mode is a bit annoying as it almost never drops guns so you're left with your peashooter constantly. The Wild Guns Reloaded remake also changes up things a lot, different stages and characters and enemy behaviors.I'm not really the type to endlessly replay a game, so I enjoyed my time with it and don't mind the shallow score system, although the controls really did take a while to adjust to. higher skill floor, lower skill ceiling type of game
>>12555109>I honestly can't imagine someone with proficiency disliking this game series.Seriously? It feels like the shittiest of euroshmups
>>12555196I guess you don't have proficiency then. Stay filtered scrub.
>>12555205Post clears
>>12555209You first, oh wait you can't. Filtered bitch boy.
>>12555109Pocky & Rocky literally has zero redeeming qualities in terms of gameplay or design, what the fuck are you going on about? You are the most obvious larping shitter, post clears or gtfoh
>>12555230Damn bro, why do you always get this asshurt when a game filters you? Just learn how to play and calm down.
>>12555234The game is actually really easy and very forgiving, but it's such a miserable slog to play, I just straight up dropped it (something I rarely ever do). That should tell you just how awful this pile of dogshit is.There's a lot of great games that filter most players, but this is the opposite case, where shitters praise it while expert players immediately recognize it as kuso trash
>>12555247>I just straight up dropped it (something I rarely ever do).Actually I see you bitching about whatever game filtered you today all the time. What a sad little filtered scrub, and in true scrub fashion you blame the game and think you're good. Classic.
>>12555254Why even bothering saying this if facts speak for themselves? I have hundreds of difficult clears achieved in a short span. You are a shitter with no clears just trying to provoke a reaction.Sit down shitter
>>12555269>Why even bothering saying this if facts speak for themselves?The facts say you're a filtered whiny bitch still wiping away tears hours after being filtered.
>>12555272Pocky & Rocky was boring and poorly designed as fuck, I'm glad I dropped it. Trash for shitters who love pretty graphics and nothing else.
>>12555247>shitters praise it while expert players immediately recognize it as kuso trashSNES in a nutshell really.
>>12554442The second game was SlowROM too.
