>>12868372
Yeah I did. I beat every game as it was intended.

That's not a Willyscrest. It's just a platformer.

I can't imagine how truly awful your life must be every single day. For some oddball reason you decided "retro games", which you have no emotional or cultural attachment to, should be your """hobby""" yet all it does is make you miserable because you're bad at them and view them through some kind of pseudo-marxist lens of oppressive patriarchal consumer assault because you can't just shut your brain off and press one button until you get the 100% All Items All Content Clear With No Repeats so you can post a one-liner about it on Discord that gets ignored because you have no real friends.

That about sum it up? Yeah.

Why does he wear a thong in US cover but he's naked in the Japanese version and game?
>>
>>12868571
Americans prefer to imagine he has a huge demon cock rather than barbie anatomy.
>>
>>12868681
He could have a cloaca.

Japs are just bad at art in general.

This game is insanely easy and pathetic. Snes shovelware apologists not beating the accusations.
>>
>>12869238
There's so many ways to beat it. You're not expected to be one and done.
>>
>>12868530
firebrand has a projectile, this is a run & gun retard. you cant even say SOTN is just a platformer either
>>
>>12868169
I should replay it and see if the other endings are more obvious now. When I was a kid I definitely used a guide.

I LOVE this game, it has become a bit of an October tradition for me. The difficulty is tough but fair. Even when you die, you rarely lose much progress. And then there's the music:

That said, it still feels unfinished/unpolished. Besides healing, I never found any practical use for any of the spells or potions. Even the main feature of the game, the Crest system, feels lacking.

Having to pause the game every time to swap forms or relics is a drag, especially considering the Mega Man X series had allowed switching weapons on the fly for years past.
The Fire Crest in particular seems poorly implemented. The Aerial Crest (which you can get fairly early) renders the Tornado and Claw abilities pointless. IMO, instead of mobility, the Fire form should have focused on "fire"power, i.e. offense. One possible implementation for example; as you gradually rebuild the crest, the basic fireball attack gains abilities like piercing, charging for power, etc.

Totally agreed. I love the game, but the criticisms and polishing suggestions are definitely valid.
>>
>>12868159
Boy the true final boss is hard but?

>>12869612
I typed but instead of huh. Now any and all conversation I was going for is completely ruined.

Itz hard 2 internet but?

>>12868159
It didn't have to be so cryptic/ convoluted.

Vaguely reminiscent of the Ultima 3 cover art.
>>
>>12868159
The true final boss of this game is one of the most ridiculous things I've ever beaten, couldn't even recount the strategy other than bring the max amount of potions and pray. Special fuck you to that electrical ball that hounds you in the arena during certain phases.

I just saw a playthrough of this not too long ago because of October trick or treat creepy stuff.

It hardly has a good soundtrack and most of the environments are boring with dull colors.

Story is told mych more weakly than the GB and NES ones in the series.

No, I'm afraid you don't know what you're talking about. SotN is a much better game in many aspects, Ghouls and Ghosts aswell.
>>
>>12870205
You only like them because they're easier.
>>
I love 1 and 2 but thought this one was boring. Good looking boring.

Hell I might even replay 1 and 2 now why not
>>
>>12869429
The last form you unlock, in the post-game, has all movement abilities on one crest, swimming, flying, everything, and it's so much better to play, no more pausing the game, going into menu and scrolling through forms every time you encounter a different obstacle. No idea what they were thinking.

Julie Bell used reference for her art. The reference photo must have been her husband in a thong idk.
