Kibayasu posted:Oh this should be interesting. I never sought out the original in any form, not even videos, only hearing about it from other people. Played the remake but I've always had a mild curiosity of how bad the first could have been. Guess I'll find out. I played Prophecy, having heard nothing about it or the original, and thought it was pretty decent. Then later I heard people talking about how terrible it was and basically thought they were overreacting until I learned that there was an earlier version that was significantly different from the one I played and that's the one they were talking about. I'm particularly interested to see the original ending since I wasn't that impressed by the later stages of the remake, so for the original to be that much worse means it must be a sight to see.

theenglishman posted:For me, a bigger issue is that we will never learn what a normal, everyday Malthusian actually thinks. Same goes for the Cornucopians. It seems pretty easy to work out from their ideologies, IMO. The everyday Malthusian wants to reduce the population, probably via access to education and contraception at the least extreme end and going up through legal restrictions on procreation, forced abortion and sterilisation, and all the way up to the outright genocide proposed by the extremists. The average Cornucopians probably don't have a problem with voluntary contraception but believe that anything beyond that is unnecessary and therefore unethical because advances in science and technology can be relied upon to solve any remaining problem. The extremists are probably more likely to be religious fundamentalists or technological utopians and have blind faith in either as-yet unknown advances solving everything or the world ending or being saved by supernatural means.

The different ammo types were one thing in this game that I just didn't get at all. Like, I tried them out but then just switched back to sonic because it was easier than bothering with the others. Was there actually any clear advantage to switching?

theenglishman posted:It's time to end this. Also, having played Prophecy, I'm kind of surprised that the thing isn't even in the original. I did wonder when I played it why you only got it right at the end, and knowing now that it's not even in the original version just makes me wonder why they bothered to add it if they weren't going to introduce it earlier on.
