Coldrice posted:Lol at people complaining that old games don’t look as good as new games Retro graphics are dumb and bad. They used those graphics because they were technically limited and unable to make it not look like poo poo. Can you name a game that you think is improved by using primitive pixel art? Yeah, not showing the lovely Alien suit made that movie scarier but it's not like Ridley Scott was breaking out the stop motion kit to captialise on the Jason and the Argonauts nostalgia. They were trying their hardest with what they had.

HonorableTB posted:The only thing I remember about Winback was the ammo indicator being an actual magazine for the weapon you're using It had lethal combat where cover and getting the drop was 90% of a fight (at first at least) and an MGS caliber plot. Sadly it was on the N64

Coldrice posted:Lol at people complaining that old games don’t look as good as new games ehhhhhh to me it's more that the lesson to game devs should be "ambition is cool and good" but art design that compliments the technology is what gives you a degree of timelessness no one on earth, for example, could rationally call super mario world ugly like you could with that GBA kill.switch

Just spare yourself the Secret of Evermore run if you can.... or don't, if you wanna know what all the fuss was about. I'm still not quite over that guy and his drat chicken song.

financially racist posted:fun fact: mecharichter does most of the perlers He seems kinda unapproachable on the GDQ streams but a while ago I ended up chatting with him on his twitch channel for like an hour while he was doing Richter runs in SotN and I can confirm that he is a cool and good and totally chill dude. We talked about how many controllers he destroys per year/month/day with his Richter run practice and how he has to wear a glove or the controller will completely gently caress his hand and fingers. MechaRichter is a-ok in my book

Roflan posted:It pains me to say this but this game has a few Chris Roberts hallmarks: It has unfocused gameplay, a scope too large for the target hardware, annoying anthropomorphic NPCs, a framerate you can literally count and it's 25 years late.

I actually didn't care for Superman 64, but Arabian Nights, Enviro-Bear 2000, Dog's Life and TITENIC (dear lord, the cutscenes!) were hysterical and/or had some really jaw-dropping stuff.
