Dishonored comes pretty close. The only challenge lies in self imposed handicaps namely not killing and being stealthy. The game is a cakewalk until the end even without powers if you just walk along and stab everybody that gets in your way.
Creeper World 3 also kinda fits. The incentive to play the game stems from the feeling of dominating the creeper absolutely with your excessive power production and weaponry. Granted it takes a little bit of effort to get to the point where victory is inevitable but playing the rest of the game out is pure power fantasy.

It really can't be overstated enough, but Asura's Wrath really did have some of the best animations and cinematography I've ever seen in a game.

any action game once you hit "got gud" level, but violent ones give an extra power trip, Ninja Gaiden and pre-2018 god of war are pretty good examples. Gow is obviously easier than DMC/NG but I'd still vouch 1-3 had fun moments and being able to do shit like instantly rip mob tier enemies into little bits and getting the flashy QTE kill on bosses has its own bit of fun. Was a big fan of the mashing QTE in GOW3 at the end of the hercules fight where you just bash his face in

You know, I'm gonna say it, I think Dark Souls is it. It's the ideal power fantasy, in the sense that it's a perfectly paced power trip. You're always the Chosen One who is in charge of saving the world. You're given a seemingly insurmountable conflict and the minimal tools to suceed, and the game makes sure you feel challenged all the way throughout in order to make you feel like you've really earned every step of the journey. Additionally, the NPCs change their opinion of you over time, from someone who's dirt to someone of note as you rise to suceed. It's a game that perfectly motivates and rewards you for acquiring power, an it directly ties having fun with doing so. It's the game most likely to make "gaining power" translate into an emotion you can feel, and unlike Old-School Retro Vidya, which were made hard in order to increase playtime, this game was deliberately designed to do so.

Yeah, but that's the fucking point! What good is a Power Fantasy if you don't have equal odds to overcome it? It's not about "power" in the sense of pure, personal damage output, it's that buzz of dopamine in the back of your skull that you get because you did something that went against the odds and overcame the challenge. That sense of self-satisfied smugness you get when you talk about your Souls experience? That's the emotion Power Fantasy is supposed to caus in you. Saying that Dark Souls doesn't reward power because its mechanics don't grant you an easy win button is like saying climbing Everest wasn't impressive because you did it the hard way.

A good power fantasy isn't just overcoming the odds, it completely demolishes the idea of the odds to begin with. DaS is not a power fantasy. If DS was a power fantasy, you wouldn't just fulfill your role in the cycle, you would destroy the cycle entirely, and then destroy whatever created the cycle, and if the cycle was just the way of the world, you would find a way to destroy the way of the world.

>Demolishes the idea of the odds
That is not necessairly true, it's not about demolishing the odds, it's about being able to overcome the odds but also being able to accomplish anything you want as long as you put enough effort into it. It's about earning your way at the top, and getting more and more out of it. It's about your decisions and actions having an actual impact.
If you defeat a strong opponent, and become a legend against your enemies which start being scared shitless of you, if the NPCs start noticing your deeds, if the villain is actually shocked by you devastatting his plan, that's a power fantasy. A power fantasy in a video game would be a game that keeps telling you that you are awesome, but when you actually accomplish the challenges laid out before you.

Yet he becomes the most powerful individual fighter by the end of DBZ, far surpassing SSJ3 Goku or SSJ3 Gotenks even.
And as a kid, he was a thousand times stronger than Goku or Vegeta were as kids. His childhood wasn't fun and games, he witnessed massacres, genocides and shit that would traumatize any normal kid. It turned him into a hardened veteran, and in the end he gets the best girl and becomes #1. GT and Super are not canon, they're fan-fiction.

Movie shit doesn't count, as far as the anime/manga go, Broly and Gogeta are just myths, legends or what-ifs. Cool to have in games, but not really canon when it comes to the show. Broly is best kept as the legendary ancient Super Saiyan that was talked about before Goku became one.

DBZ was the shit because it was exactly what OP describes, pure masculine power fantasy, buff muscled supermen flying at supersonic speeds and firing nukes from their hands, casually blowing up planets or causing craters the size of a city, and launching 1,000 punches/kicks a second and having superhuman reflexes to dodge or block it all.
It's martial arts on steroids, the weakest Z Fighter could beat anyone from Mortal Kombat/Street Fighter/Marvel. DBZ is the pinnacle of power fantasy. Moeshit "my anorexic stick figure is immortal and the god of the universe btw" need not apply. DBZ is believable because characters LOOK strong, it's not just implied. Everyone is ripped as fuck.

Good staples flare up every so often, sometimes someone makes a thread and it catches on from people remembering better times or from newfags finding about it. Other times something related comes up such as news on the next version of Terraria or the latest release of Elona+. Or simply someone mentioned them and gave another anon reason to play them. For example, since I mentioned those two games, I fully expect a thread about either popping up within a day or two. There's hardly reason to suspect shenanigans about anons replaying good games.

Are there any GOOD filters that actually decently replicate the sprite smoothing/.5 pixel effect of old CRTs?
403c7f No.16001778
>>16001733
Apparently there are some decent CRT shaders. Also there actually is one critical point where you have to do filtering and that's Kirby's Dream Land 3. This particular game takes advantage of how old TVs work in high-res mode to do nice translucency effects on foreground objects. If it's done wrong you either get alternating vertical columns where it's opaque or transparent, or fully opaque foreground objects obscuring the view.
https://archive.vn/CZhym
As historical interest, older versions of the bsnes compatibility core used to do the blending inside the core before presenting it to the video renderer instead of outsourcing it to shaders, while the accuracy core did not, so without post-processing you ended up with the on-off vertical stripes thing on accuracy but not compatibility where it looked at least correct. Less egregiously Super Mario World had checkerboard patterns of transparent-cyan water to be translucent for the same reason. This was eventually corrected so all cores output the raw video so you had to use shaders.

No, it all does a shit job of it it or is half baked in its implementation. Maybe shaders can't do it or it's too hard but there's a lot of 3D math involved in how CRTs look and operate.

Super is still from absorbing a kai technically, he's literally fat buu but evil(and thus not weakened by impurity unlike fat buu); there's more against than for it, considering losing a part of yourself should come with power loss.
Totally unconfirmed though what it is though, nobody actually fights base super buu and kid buu both to give a comparison.

I haven't played any of the SMT games, but the problem is that He might be gamebreaking - if He were a transformation/summon, the game might be as easy as Kirby's Dreamland. If He were the final secret boss, He would be impossible to beat without hacks, assuming the characters would even want to fight him. Unless maybe he thought you stole his food, then you'd just have to survive long enough for some other event to transpire that reveals it isn't the case.
