River City Ransom sure looks nice in previews but the builds I tried play horrible and I'm really worried about the final product.

I don't think there's ever been a time that a developer or publisher claiming something is a "return to the series' roots" has been anything but a horrible lie.

Trying to "change up the formula" is how you ruin a game series. Mega Man didn't change its formula and it took them a long time to gently caress up and make a really bad one. Not every franchise needs to be Mario.

Stux posted:resi 4 is a lot of peoples favourite resi and was absolutely a massive change up to the formula Yeah and it broke the franchise since no one was able to recapture what was good about it in the sequels, and no one would accept a return to the old fixed-camera gameplay either because they love RE4 so much. Which is why Resident Evil keeps trying to reinvent itself every year now.

ImpAtom posted:On the other hand there is no long-running franchise at this point which hasn't changed up its formula. You change your formula eventually or you die. Or you... make new games that aren't iterations on a franchise. And go back to that franchise once people actually want more of it.

Final result: 20 correctly identified songs. 11 unindentified songs from games I actually played. Calling bullshit on: the FF7 one for being an FF5 song, the Mortal Kombat one for being from the genesis version, which was never played by a human being. I also confused the ghost trick song with this one. So I get a passing grade, at least, if we exclude the ones it was literally impossible for me to get due to not having played the games.

Spoderman posted:The big problem with seven is that they stagger the levels, so that you have to beat the first four robot masters before the next four, and the first four are all less fun than the last four. It's a very backloaded game. There's a password that unlocks all 8 bosses from the start. Bicyclops posted:Also making Mega Man big instead of going the Mega Man X route makes you have about 3 Mega Mans worth of screen space. X is just better. You can always play this extremely good fan game if that's a real sticking point. Although it does remove the shop and intro stage from the game. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EDOn56hpR7w

I'll never understand what people see in X4. Putting aside the incredibly awful voice acting and anime cutscenes, it's also an ugly-rear end game that has terrible aesthetics and the level design is pretty weak compared to the SNES games. Zero also kinda sucks to play as, and X's buster just feel kinda puny and pathetic compared to what it was in the good games. I mean yeah, it's way better than X5 and X6, but that doesn't mean it's good.

I'm playing Metal Gear Ground Zeroes and here's my review so far: Hideo Kojima is a stupid idiot for replacing David Hayter with Kiefer Sutherland.

Ciaphas posted:I thought he asked Hayter and got turned down Hayter's been very, very explicit about how it was Kojima specifically who had him fired from a role he loved. Some people tried to rationalize that it was because it's Big Boss instead of Solid Snake, but Kojima didn't replace the Japanese VA. Others want to blame Konami higher-ups, but they immediately re-hired him for a stupid commercial once Kojima was gone. Apparently the reason Kojima gave was that he thought Hayter did a bad job on MGS4. It's widely speculated that the reason both MGS5s have so little Snake dialogue (something everyone complained about) is because Sutherland's rates were much higher than the other VAs. Hayter being fired is also why Metal Gear Rising's US release didn't have the special wooden sword haunted by the spirit of Solid Snake, which would randomly comment on the gameplay in Snake's voice. So yeah. Stupid idiot.

I'll get back to you on those themes and story when I actually finish playing through both games, but after MGS4 and Ground Zeroes I'm predicting they're gonna be really stupid.Viewtiful Jew posted:Didn't Hayter also say that Kojima become upset that he basically became the face of Metal Gear Solid up until V started serious production? Like when there were award shows and the sort back in 2005 you'd have the Voice of Solid Snake David Hayter presenting something usually. It was like how Nolan North basically became the face of the entire Uncharted series and for some reason Kojima really wasn't comfortable with it happening with his own series. That's entirely possible. Only Kojima really knows the reason, but it's a bad move for sure.

More Ground Zeroes thoughts: it's a real letdown that there's no non-retro Solid Snake skin in Deja Vu, and it sucks that Jamais Vu is so back-loaded with combat, since identifying Snatchers and sparing humans is really fun, as is sneaking around with a character who has superhuman speed.
