shit response for a shit thread, fitting

StarFox Zero was hyped? Has a StarFox game ever been relevant since the N64?

>it's another goon thread

Doesn't take much to realize the disappointing or unpopular hate is always about japanese gaming

>>14099837

This game bored me to tears and your anger isn't going to change that. I bet you were one of the retards who hyped this shit on /v/ beyond all reason.

>>14099844

Were weebs always this retarded?

>>14099851

>having such shit taste

At least you're one of few

>>14099904

Is your ego so fragile you need to entertain the illusion the people who disagree with you are few? Imageboards might not be your thing.

>>14099828

Every time I think about trying out that game I'm always deterred, because it's one of those things that you can't tell if it's legit good or just another mediocre game shilled by weebs.

>>14100115

It's not a bad game but it's overhyped. Wait a year or two for that to settle down so you can go in without expectations.

>>14100248

God this appeals to my /ss/ fetish immensely

Brought SFZ first print edition more for the reason of getting a physical copy of Star Fox Guard (which is really good). SFZ was just . . . I just can't understand why they didn't delay it again to November 2016 instead and actually TRY to make a better single player mode than 64's.

Why are the last 3 levels the same fucking planets?

Why so many Fox only small levels?

Why was the motion control aiming gimmick and the Gyrowing (a slow moving vehicle with designed for the purpose of 3D movement) feel like something that would be better in a Pilotwings game instead of a fast paced action game?

What happened to the idea of Corneria level boss and the consequences of it returning later in a later level if you didn't defeat it by blowing up the ship? (destroying the outer turrets instead of the reactor core)

Only redeeming features I can think of are: Landmaster triple lock on, the Fortuna level and wingmen not being so useless while having their kill count add to your level end score.

Assault had hype, it was announced in May 2002 as few months before SF Adventures had even been released. It was unexpected for Nintendo to announce a sequel before the current game was even released? Then it faced delays, E3 2003 unveiling, was supposed to be release Nov 2004 but got delayed to Feb 2005. What else was there to look forward to during those Gamecube drought months?

the wii u had a lot of these stinkers didn't it, games that were hyped but ended up as shit or disappointing in some way

SFZ will be looked at as a "hidden gem" or rather an overlooked game in 10-15 years after gyro has been normalized to the point that two joysticks has been normalized. Please don't mistake this claim as me saying it deserves this.

>>14099844

But anon, Starfox Zero was shit. Wii U in general was so bad even Nintendo is hoping you'll forget it existed.

>>14100071

>my ego

>he says as he posts in an unpopular opinions thread without shame and defends his shit taste

>>14102084

No, no one here really expects much from crowdfunded titles.

>>14100115

It's the later. It's a run of the mill game with a barebones combat system and a plot that ends up nonsensical but hides behind "hurrr read all the various supplmental materials 2deep4u!" that people praise because of the protagonist's ass and because it's made by le quirky guy in a mask.

>>14102371

>tomato

>run of the mill anything

>this entire post

Play the shit yourself, don't listen to shitposters on /v/ like this faggot

>>14102392

Really? The combat system isn't run of the mill? Made by platinum but less involved than Bayonetta and we're going to pretend it's above average?

Star Fox Zero is depressing because it's so close to being a perfect Star Fox game, but they had to go and shoehorn in some unneeded gimmicks, because Miyamoto can't just make a straight sequel. Even after 20 years of people waiting for it.

>>14100115

it's a decent game that has a neat story. The problem is that it's overhyped and on a system that a lot of users here hate for petty reasons.

>>14102444

It's an action RPG. Different genre to Bayonetta. Different standards. You should compare it to the original Nier, not Bayonetta.

>>14102490

It's on PC though.

>>14102506

Hence why I said half of the problem is that it's overhyped. It's a 8/10 game at worst. The worst thing you can say is that the game's combat is a bit simplistic but if you are playing a moonman game simply for the gameplay then you are doing it wrong. It would be like eating a cake and bitching that the icing is too plain tasting while ignoring the fact that the cake itself tastes amazing.

>>14102524

>gameplay

>icing

Kill yourself, for the love of God.

>>14102545

It's an RPG. The writing and world building is actually just as important as gameplay here.

>>14102555

>>14102545

Would the cake be the gameplay, with the icing being some particular part of the gameplay?

>>14102558

Wouldn't*

>>14102558

Hard to pin down with RPGs. I mean, most of us will defend at least one RPG with distinctly shitty or mediocre gameplay, if the writing is good enough. Good gameplay certainly helps, but it isn't necessarily the deal breaker it is for other genres.

>>14102444

>run of the mill

>when it mashes different forms and types of gameplay altogether up into it

You don't know what "run of the mill" fucking means to begin with you gigantic faggot

>>14102524

Gameplay is fine. it being unusual is what sets it apart; its unusualness and quirkiness is what sets it apart, being almost always changing in some way, shape or form

>>14102576

Second best Star Fox game and would have surpassed 64 if not for the forced gimmicks (thanks, Shiggy).

>>14100248

>Have to be a soyboy cuck to know when shit is shit

Dumber than a fucking nigger.

>>14102576

It was disappointing compared to what it could have been, but it isn't bad. It isn't 80% composed of on foot sections like Assault, for instance.

>>14099726

Please don't say it was because of the aiming. I can take criticisms about it that don't involve "but it was too hard/i don't want to look at the screen"

>>14104165

>last yellow point

How is that a bad thing? 64 was annoying in that you had to do a full playthrough just to play the level you wanted. It was especially frustrating when you were going for medals.

>>14104165

NIGGA STOP. YOU'RE GONNA TRIGGER THE ZERO AUTIST ALL THE WAY TO HIGH HELL.

>>14104165

Yeah, I can agree with a lot of that.

>>14102487

You have starfox 2 though On the SNES classic edition :^)

>>14102506

Denuvo.
