ever play a game where you tell yourself it's good, but it left a sour taste in your mouth?
for me, it's Paper Mario. don't get me wrong, there's a LOT of good there. but I just constantly felt the gameplay was underwhelming. the combat is sluggish, the exploration is one-dimensional, the dialogue is childish even for big N standards. it's a 7/10 game that gets away with it because of fun content. I subtly hate myself for playing it to the end. it just wasn't fulfilling as an RPG.
is TTYD much or any better? I read that it's one big QoL, but many seem to rate it same or lower than PM.

I once posted a Times you acted like Kefka thread at /vr/ and a janitor somehow considered it more worthy of pruning than the average CRT-shader circlejerk, impotent scalper hate and console wars bait threads. Weird stuff.

>what's that? your IBM is giving you some trouble, son?
>my first step would be to replace all the caps on the entire board
>...what do you mean there's no evidence the caps are causing the problem? they're going to fail eventually any way so you might as well
>what do you mean you don't want to commit to such a drastic first course of action before ruling out potentially simpler fixes? If there's anything I've learned in my 50+ years doing this, it's that the problem is always caps, sonny
>you want to keep the board in as original condition as possible? what are you some kind of poofter? off with those caps, chump
>ah you found some corroded traces on the board? I told you that'd be the problem
>WAIT YOU USED TAP WATER TO CLEAN IT OFF? ARE YOU INSANE? YOU JUST DEPOSITED SIX GORILLION MINERAL PARTICLES ON YOUR BOARD THAT ARE GOING TO SHORT IT OUT THE NEXT TIME YOU POWER IT ON!! YOU SHOULD HAVE USED BRAKE CLEANER OR SOMETHING!
>oh it didn't explode? well you'll be sorry about those minerals one day...
>what's that? the floppy drive won't work reliably? that's an easy one. just replace all the RAM, that'll fix 'er right up
>oh you've already determined the RAM is not the problem? you've mentioned this multiple times? well those chips are notoriously unreliable, it's possible they could still be the problem. I'd replace them all anyway
>ah, the drive head was just dirty? well it could have been the ram...
>what? the keyboard isn't working reliably? IT'S THE RAM!!!!!!!

>remember some game you liked as a kid

yfw you realize the reason Nintendo's been mum about a Twilight Princess port is that they're working on a Twilight Princess DX and the rumors of a Zelda remake in the works is it.

Yup. I'm thinking we're back.
