LttP isn't as good as people say it is but it was necessary for the (far superior) Link's Awakening to exist

It's amazing how much better having dedicated sword, shield and run buttons made the remake.

Oldstench posted:Dusk and Amid Evil are ok games. I'm not really feeling the over-the-top hype for them. Also, the jump in Amid Evil sucks rear end. Yeah I was pretty disappointed in Dusk. All I wanted was something that felt like Quake and that's clearly what they were going for but they only got like 75% of the way there. The speed kinda felt right but most of the weapons sucked and the enemies were all bullet sponges. The boss fights were really bad too.

This Outer Worlds game is boring and lame, its like they did the bare minimum to count as a return to the genre and all the reviewers are sucking their dick for playing it beyond safe.

I think everyone is just so sick of Bethesda's phoned-in bullshit that they'll heap praise on anyone else who throws their hat in the same ring with a mostly competent offering. Even if "mostly competent" is in fact all there is to say about it.

Rutibex posted:LttP is still good because you can play it with a randomizer that scrambles all the items and dungeons I've been playing randomizers of the game boy Zelda games and just so everyone knows the rankings are 1. Oracle of Seasons 2. Oracle of Ages 3. Links Awakening I'm sad Link's Awakening is so low on the list but it doesn't really lend itself to randomizers well unless you like entrance randomizers, which I do not. There aren't a lot of non-dungeon item checks, and you typically get the power bracelet, sword, and jump feather early due to logic. That's even with selecting options to make the world more explorable by default (remove the walrus, the obstacle blocking the path the Animal Village, the flower in front of dungeon 2, etc) It especially doesn't work well because the randomizer I found doesn't let you use the version of the game where you can super-jump. There may be settings that result in a good experience though. Seasons works better than Ages because Ages ends up pretty linear based on the way the logic works. In seasons you get the LttP experience where you complete the game in a different order every time. Not only do you unlock the seasons in a random order, but the default season each area is in is also randomized so some areas have pathways or obstacles by default that wouldn't usually be there. Plus you can randomize Subrosia entrances, which I do like. In Ages the time travel mechanism does not end up giving you a lot of freedom and diversity of exploration.

They overused some enemy types in a big way and there are a few levels that are literally lovely, cramped, dark hallways so I'd totally agree with you. It's a 3/5 game all the way.

I just played LA remake and it was dope, but I have no idea why anyone would consider it better than LTTP. The puzzles are piss easy for 75% of the game and then a huge difficulty spike comes out of nowhere, and it's not like the puzzles actually become that much more challenging. They just become more tedious and obtuse. It's very charming and good game for the most part, but the puzzles are the least clever of any Zelda game I've ever played. A Link Between Worlds absolutely blows every other 2D Zelda out of the water.

The fact that people are making all kinds of computer video games but aren't making Ultima Underworld and Ultima Underworld 2 only with tolerable controls is very hosed up.

I liked LA more simply because it had way more charm, and I was way more involved in that world. LA also had a more relaxed feel, with a more open world and less gate-keeping The fact that LA was made for the Game Boy is pretty miraculous as well, easily one of the best games on that system

I would absolutely love a tight 12-14 hour Zelda game with like 3 massive dungeons and no item collecting, just a full toolset from the start.

IMO puzzles aren't whats important for a good zelda game. I think above all the world has to feel cool and fun to explore. To that end, I think they made a bad decision on increasing the number of warp points and letting you warp from anywhere in the new LA. It's not a very big game, you could move from one end of the map to another in a few minutes. Becoming familiar with the world holistically is what made me fall in love with it.

Ocean Book posted:IMO puzzles aren't whats important for a good zelda game. I think above all the world has to feel cool and fun to explore. I'd agree with that sentiment, especially since, as I pointed out earlier, 90% of the puzzles since day 1 have been tedious block pushing or simply kill everything in the room. And the block pushing is often only capable of being done in one direction so you wind up having to rub your face on every block from all sides.

I just think the concept of the game is a bit weak Fallout = bombed out post apocalypse. Mad Max style Mass Effect = Big sci-fi opera in the early days of mankinds expansion into the larger galactic scene. Also, there are robot old gods Outer Worlds = There are exploitative corporations here. Deal with them for the entire game

It tells a couple of really cool small scale stories that work but the overall narrative is real weak and didn’t engage me at all and I had a lot of fun with the relatively limited amount of free form gameplay there is. It’s also very pretty and plenty of aspects are ok but not awful but i feel like I’ve listed all the things about it that are actually good in this post

If it had a convulted looter system like borderlands it might actually be better imo but it doesn’t take itself super seriously, it just plays it fairly straight and then winks at you a lot and makes you feel uncomfortable

It’s weird how much goons describe it as utterly poo poo and worthless but then again it’s also extremely weird how utterly fawning critics have been bc it’s maybe the most quintessentially ‘ok’ game I can think of so maybe it’s just the natural balance of the universe

BTW if you are like me and you have like 20 pages of stupid steam trading cards in your steam inventory you can mass sell them with a chrome extension called steam inventory helper. After 100 or so listings if they start showing up as listings awaiting confirmation in the market you need to check all the boxes and confirm them in the mobile app on the confirmation tab. im gonna make like
