>>10072798 optional side content is non-linear in every game that has optional side content, that's what that IS. so bringing it up to claim the game is non-linear makes no sense.
most dungeons are sequential, with two that you can do in either order. the game is linear

>>10072889 >optional side content is non-linear in every game Yes, except Ocarina structures the main content around the side content. You can complete the main content in different ways depending on how you interact with the side content.
>most dungeons are sequential, with two that you can do in either order. Sorry, but this just plain wrong. As we have already established, you have about a half dozen options for where to go from the moment link becomes an adult, putting aside all of the side content. The game is not linear.

>>10044834 >dmca fangames after years of development. NTA and not to defend Nintendo doing that sort of thing, but they're inconsistent about (see: Mario Fan Games Galaxy). They seem to go after games that either get major publicity or they perceive to be an active threat to their games (see: AM2R and Samus Returns).
Not to mention that other games from other companies have been C&D'd like SOR Remake and Chrono Trigger Crimson Echoes (which was even just a romhack from what I gather). It's just that Nintendo has a lot of beloved properties whose fangames get way more recognition which triggers the company who is way more draconian in protecting them as they are still a first party who greatly relies on said properties (see: The Marvel Ultimate Alliance tie-in fiasco).
I'm not saying they're necessarily right to do it. I'm just saying why they probably do it.

I remember making a suggestion here that instead of a 32x, why not just do what Virtua Racing did and make special Genesis cart games? People talked down to me and said it wouldn't work... But trying to offload inventory at $30 or if you can't do that, turn it into scrap, makes a lot more sense, right?

Americans confirmed for dragging down SEGA?
Anonymous
Quoted By:
I feel like everybody is gaslighting each other. The conversations I was having (and yes, I posted in your thread) wasn't that the 32x didn't kill sega, it's that you can still find enjoyment out of it anyway. Other people were just arguing that the Saturn was the real death blow, not that the 32x didn't hurt. I don't think anybody actually thinks that the 32x was a purely neutral business endeavor for sega, they only ever argue what their personal opinion of the console was or they argue that it wasn't the only thing that killed them.

>>10058302 I wouldn't go as far as to say that SEGA of America was completely responsible for SEGA's downfall but their decisions played a much greater role in their eventual exit than certain SoA figures (e.g. Kalinske) and most "gaming historians" have been saying.

it was 32x, nomad and the lack of good sports games what made sega saturn not being succesful as psx, read the maketing pdf from 1996. Sega sports REALLY dropped the ball.

I've played Dragon Quest, Final Fantasy, Chrono Trigger, Pokemon and many other jarpigs and I still think Earthbound sits at the top. The enemy designs are kino, the music is kino, the humour is kino, it's undoubtedly a classic an deserves its reputation as a must play jarpig. Those who call the gameplay "dragon quest clone" haven't played dragon quest because it feels different. It has perfect challenge with a good experience curve, you can play the game with your left hand while eating thanks to the l button, the rolling hp makes the later battles really tense, the final boss is one of the best in any game ever. The graphics are colourful and charming, they are in the middle between dq5/ff4 and chrono trigger/ff6. Everyone itt are twitter obsessed terminally online faggots.

As you get older, do you find yourself sympathizing with the moral guardians of the past? Some time ago I was listening to an episode of Retronauts about Mortal Kombat. When they got to talking about the moral outrage over the game, the hosts, a bunch of childless 40 years mocked it just like I would have when I was 9 years old. But on the other hand, it sort of hit me as I have kids of my own - were the parental reactions THAT unreasonable? Games were evolving incredibly quick -we went from Pac Man to MK in a decade. Shouldn't you have concerns about the media ecosystem that your kids partake in? I have kids and I feel like you really have to have an eye on the stuff your kids consume, especially nowadays. I mean I turned out fine so maybe I shouldn't be concerned with this shit.

>>10004720 No that actually makes sense now that I think of it. I would argue indie games blatantly ripping off retro games without understanding what makes those special or why people hold them in high regard (a lot, but definitely not all, pixelshit for example) would qualify for that. They tend to ape the graphics while doing a far worse job than the old games did. But after writing that out I feel like Soulless still captures that over forced soul.

Do you have a problem with Smash Bros. outside its community? Like do you refute the claim it is a "good game"?

>>9903246 Of course its a good game, its just completely unconventional for a 2d fighter. So Street Fighter and etc. fans get all weird about it. Its like if someone spends years of their life skateboarding and someday they see some guy riding a razer scooter they’re like wow what a fag. Scooters can be fun for some people but the skateboarders will call you a homo because its unconventional and different. Rolerbladers are the real faggots

The fact some mod of a retro smash game had to do it is sad, Sakurai just doesn't give a shit about detail unless it's a fucking Earthbound, DQ, or Persona character
