Feel like the japanese boxart of Sonic are the only good ones. Its the only ones that got the design of the sonic characters right: proportions, color, and the aesthetic all capture how I've seen Mega Drive Sonic. The European and American ones always make the characters look even more like a alien, especially how hideous the NA ones looks imo. Why are Sonics quills detached from his head, bruh erase the dang lines.
None of these interest me except maybe Ninjala. Ill just stick to older games rn and wait for the Smash ARMS dlc that im hyped for. Paper Mario Origiami King as well.
Also does dlc really count as new game? New content yes, but new game seems like the wrong word for it. EDIT: Didnt notice the subtitle, guess they didn't have a lot to put on this list :/
I've never grew up with Paper Mario so I don't have a emotional attachment like others do, but I rather if they tried something unique with the Paper Mario formula than just use the same formula but maybe make it more challenging. If I want RPG Paper Mario id just play the first two, so I think ima pass unless this game is on a big sale or something.
Also I can never get recommended this game as Bug Fables, only as a Paper Mario clone by a indie dev whose a big fan of series. getting people going "If you want a new Paper Mario game, play this! The next Paper Mario is just gonna be a joke anyway". Like its as though this game doesn't have its own identity (Not to say it doesn't, i've never played, its just the perception I get), just Paper Mario for people that want TTYD 2.0 and annoyed the the series isnt the same as the first two.
I am happy that the big fans of the first 2 (kinda 3 in some extent) Paper Mario games got a new game of the same vein though, because its true Nintendo isn't doing anything like them anymore.
My first exposure to programming was GML with Game Maker 8 and Studio. I didnt get too far in it because it felt like majority of the tutorials online basically make you copy and paste code, which is hard for me to understand what im doing and grasping what each function does.
I'll create something like Space Invaders or Zelda 1, but id later forget most of the material the next day. I've tried Unity but I couldnt understand anything going on in the interface so I bailed quickly sadly. I'd probably understand it if I gave it a chance like I did with the 3d modeling tool Blender (which also has a convoluted ui).
Id gladly snag a game on __ and play games for free on pc with enhanced visuals and sometimes 60fps. Played Thousand Year Door for the first time with a HD texture pack, it was awesome.
Welp the phobia controversy discussion happened. Theres definitelly gonna be a battle in here and people arent going to listen to either side. Bad mouthing peoples opinions or ignoring facts, its all the same.
@Elvie I find the comparison pretty false. Sonic Boom is meta humor and TTG is more so juvenile humor. Ive seen some of TTG and I cant say its accurate when both are written differently.
He never stated it was canceled yet. Maybe people shouldn't assume things like that because they aren't getting spoon fed information on a scheduled basis. Same goes for the people that say Retro Studios is dead and Prime 4 is canceled.
1. Echoes
2. Sacred Stones
3. Blazing Blade
4. Tharcia 776
5. Fates Conquest (I absolutely hate every character and every part of this story. Only putting it on here because the map design and gameplay is really good)
My Honerable Mentions:
Genealogy. It has the best story in the series but the worst map design in the series imo, yes I say that despite putting Echoes at 1. The map design made me quit the game because of how much it drags the pace of the game.
Three Houses. Great game but I dislike the monastery micro management stuff, although interesting reads, it became a chore.
Never played the Ike games so idk what makes them so great.
Eh I rather a igavania like Bloodstained. Not a big fan of classicvania, think they aged poorly control wise and are just not as fun as the open ended variety igavanias have.
I dont want a new Paper Mario to be like Paper Mario 64 and TTYD. I want Paper Mario to be a new Paper Mario game.
Sticker Star didnt deliver, Color Splash did.
Rayman is the only thing I care about and the only thing id play from this company tbh. I've been waiting on a game after Rayman Legends and its been years of nothing but a Rabbids game which I neither wanted or cared about.
I feel lied to Nintendium. I was feeling really ecstatic to get myself immersed in the multilayered worlds of 51 clubhouse games and you ruined it. There is a 52nd... You betrayed ME* Nintendium as you broken MY* trust and the MANY OTHERS* that believed in you. This isnt Clubhouse Games: 51 Worldwide Classics, this is a WORLDWIDE* slander to all clubhouse game collections out there. I hope they burn in the sweltering heat of my mothers basement.
Hopefully its not a remake. Talk about another way for Sonic to stay stagnant is a remake of a game thats not even good instead of figuring out how to make a Sonic game in 3D. So tired of nostalgia pandering this gaming period tbh.
@Sensible Its uncommon. Every controller can have a chance to be poorly manufactured and faulty. The most common complaint with the pro controller I hear is the dpad.
I never had drift because I got a 8bitdo SN30 Pro+ for like $38 instead so I cant give any more information of Pro Controller issues aside from comments I see online.
Oh no I hope this doesnt damage sales. I really want this to succeed . Now there is gonna be that conspiracy theorist guy that despite not knowing whats going on that lead to this, they would spring up any negative reasoning they can find.
Probably alone but this and Mario Kart 7 (7 more so) felt really boring to me after Double Dash, DS, and Wii. I really hope we get a new game and not DLC. A new game with a more interesting gimmick this time please? 6 whole years of this same game, 6 years...
This is my favorite Zelda game next to A Link Between Worlds, Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword (Funny because I used to hate it for the controls but I replayed it recently and its now my favorite combat system in zelda for how unique it is.)
Seems like theres always that one ignorant folk that doesnt understand the problem and always appears in these discussions. I call it the "It doesnt happen to me so it doesnt for anyone else" mentality. They usually tell people to "LUL GET LAN ADAPTER AND BETTER INTERNET", ignoring valid complaints that other people have.
This goes farther than awful netcode. The content of the online feature is a problem as well. Smash quickplays barely works. You get a lot of matches not on your assign ruleset, you can get in lobby hell where youre stuck and cant find players because one player that joined has poor connection and screwed your queue, There isnt a icon showing other players latency like most online games (also giving you a choice to not fight them), and you dont match up with people with your skill level depending on gsp everytime. Also why cant I switch my character, no wonder most people never do rematches.
Arena's are way better and Im glad they added changing ruleset in arena but why do we have to sit there during long lines doing nothing but spectate. How about add a training room or idk, let more than one fight happen in a arena?
Id rather Smash4s For Glory/For Fun system than Quickplay if it meant a more consistent experience. Not like the netcode is any different...
