Snyderman posted:As an overall game I prefer the original Devil May Cry, even now. 3 and 5 (and Bayonetta) are a lot of fun to play but they don't have that same blend of isolation, a useful but limited toolkit, scarcity, and mistakes being punished heavily that make progression feel so good. When you beat the game you're forced into a higher difficulty automatically with whatever you had before, so it expects you to get good and makes picking up missed blue orbs riskier. I wouldn't say it's the best design decision that respects your time but it's a clear vision for how the game should go and makes each playthrough have a unique feel (normal, hard, very hard). DMC1 has really heavy, satisfying combat and great enemy design. I like it more than DMC3 because that game is full of frustrating enemies and they react to your attacks like a lightsaber on low battery. Your sword just seems to pass straight through them, while in DMC1 you can stunlock them until they block you, or another enemy gets close enough to attack you. DMC4's Nero and its enemy roster are great throwbacks to what I loved about DMC1. Dante feels a bit overwhelming, and I would have preferred if each style had some passive bonus instead of just changing what the Circle button did, i.e. faster movement in Trickster, higher defense in Royal Guard and faster attacks in Swordmaster and Gunslinger.

Yajirobe has to massively hold back his power at all times lest he obliterate everyone in his presence.

FWIW, in the past I have made direct comparisons between the DMC1 vs. 3+ dichotomy and earlier Souls games vs. the later ones. I totally know the vibe you're talking about and the stuff I bolded is 100% in Dark Souls' wheelhouse. Obviously they're still very different games, but they definitely share some DNA (or at least parallel evolution or some poo poo idk) if you dig deep enough.

There's this really old game called stratosphere where they had you building uh floating inverted rockbergs, and the building was really simple. You'd just plop down components (thrusters, power, guns, etc.) into this hex grid, and away you went killing other flying fortresses for their resources. I don't think it's anything like all those games though...

Duck and Cover posted:Escape Velocity Nova. poo poo, I can't find it in my library, but there was a very similarly inspired game released only a few years ago. I'd describe it but they all sound mechanically similar, which is frustrating. Involves time travel?! For a similar oldy game that's simple good fun, Starscape is probably very dated but I recall it being excellent fun in the same vibe. No annoying downtime/grinding, just balancing a ship's power systems and blowing stuff up. https://store.steampowered.com/app/20700/Starscape/

what the deal with halo games? the multiplayer is the most babys first online shooter I've ever played - every teamfight is just you holding a reticule over the brightly lit enemy soldier for 10 seconds until someone dies, the campaigns seem to be loose collections of vaguely connected levels in the same way Doom or Quake is and not actual well crafted, realistic feeling environments like Half life. It doesn't have the tactical depth of a Rainbow Six, it's not frantic like Doom Eternal, it's not even lying to the player about some deep meta-universe that rewards grinding like a Destiny. It's not got cool big robots like Titanfall 2 or bright attractive colours like Apex Legends or a real retro aesthetic like DUSK. None of their characters are sexually desirable like an Overwatch. I assume there are hardcore competitive Halo players out there who love competitive first person shooters but really hate Mice and Keyboards or they'd be playing counterstrike. I'm not trying to rag on Halo, my dad brought an original Xbox into the house because he wanted to play Halo, i have a fond sort of nostalgia for it but its the most jack of all trades shooters I've ever seen

Halo was good because other shooters weren’t as well-made. This doesn’t mean Halo is good, necessarily, but other shooters were worse. At the time Call of Duty didn’t have levels and perks and knifes and all that poo poo, it was M1 Garands and smoke grenades and a bunch of idiots prone behind a dead cow on a farm in France.

I loved the original Halo back in the day, mostly because of the cool enemy and weapon design. Covenant elites were extremely fun to fight. Also it was one of the first shooters that let you drive jeeps and tanks and poo poo. The graphics were bad even for it's time though ( on PC at least, supposedly it looked better on Xbox) and the second half had some boring-rear end levels.

this is true. I have an art of xenosaga book for some reason. maybe it's just the era - loved ps1 stuff so much and things that happened on PS2 were always a huge disappointment in comparison. xenosaga vs xenogears, ffx & Derek of Cerberus vs FF7,8,9 - Suikoden 3 & whatever vs 1 & 2

Complete return to form, feels like a true follow up to Suikoden II in the ways that the earlier PS2 ones weren't.

halo was good when you could steal a banshee when you were not supposed to, and not break the level, though they forced you to dump it both times it was pretty bad how it straight up reused maps for the latter half of the campaign though

What are your most unpopular positive gaming opinions? Games you love that are generally disliked, gameplay things you like that other people don't, things like that. I think mine at least used to be "Breath of Fire Dragon Quarter loving rules" but I feel like I see more people praising that game than hating on it lately so that might not be so unpopular anymore. Maybe my other one is "Chrono Cross is almost as good as Chrono Trigger, which means it's great"

Also Halo actually has enemy variety with different types of alien soldiers and their own distinct weapons, tactics, roles and vehicles. And the two-weapon limit actually worked in play because different weapons were good for different things, and you had to decide which would work for the next segment. Multiplayer I dunno as much about. Weirdly enough it seems like the entire industry chose to take away the opposite lessons on almost absolutely everything from it.
