They're the only two Zelda games where the worlds felt actually alive and were fun to explore, the characters being actually interesting. Both were also significant refinements of those that came before them, OoT and LttP respectively.

From a simple perspective yes, from an objective view no. HR gives you XP for literally everything, takedowns and kills, explorer bonus, non-lethal bonus, ghost bonus, hacking everything, etc, instead of only giving you fixed xp at certain checkpoints. How you get from A to B shouldn't fucking matter when the only thing that should matter is that you made it through a challenge. The reward for taking out an enemy while maintaining stealth is that there is 1 less foe to worry about. The only reward for being non-lethal only is that it should morally make you feel good and conserve lethal ammunitions. The only reward for exploration is a new path or loot See exploration for the only reward for hacking as well as lore. Of course this is from a metagame perspective however. I enjoyed HR without knowing this design flaw. Human Revolution is not a good modern Deus Ex, but it has a passing grade.

>>16325339

>It's the only Sonic game that puts any emphasis on actually going fast past the very first stage.

Confirmed for being a shitter.

>the characters being actually interesting

and a storycuckold one at that.

>>16325357

>All 3D Mario are good

Sunshine forces you to use a gimmick that makes it nearly impossible to ever die. One fifth of the shines are locked behind tedious blue coins and the stage setting variety is worse than even the other Mario games, which is already pretty bad.

Galaxy's gimmick made the stage design painfully simple and linear.

Galaxy 2 had the same problem.

Odyssey has great movement but absolutely terrible missions, a significant portion of them being "go to one spot with this transformation and exist", "go to one spot and ground pound" and "talk to Toadette".

>All Smash Bros. are good

Melee would have been okay if half the roster was not fucking useless. I mained Kirby and thought Melee was absolute unplayable trash for the longest time because of it.

Brawl and 4 were slow to the point of not being fun.

Ultimate went too far with the meme roster and the input delay alongside the shoddy online makes it miserable.

>FFIII > FFIV

I can't think of anything that made FFIII special.

>>16325183

>>16325485

Kirby.

But sure, many have gone to shit, but they go to shit after SEVERAL games, not one. Examples are Zelda, Mario, Castlevania, Mega Man, Silent Hill, Resident Evil and so on.

None of them were even close to being bad. Underwhelming, sure, but certainly not fucking bad.

>>16325594

Anon, you're a fucking retard, I swear to god. I agree that they all went to shit. But none of them are series that only had ONE GOOD GAME, which is what the fucking thread is about.

Read this sentence again:

>But sure, many have gone to shit, but they go to shit after SEVERAL games, not one

I wasn't listing examples of good series. We can argue where they went to shit and I would, especially in Mario and Castlevania's case, but that's not the point.

The only series I listed as having not gone to shit is Kirby, which is true. It's not as good as it was, but there's an in between between good and bad, you know.

>>16325612

Sakurai Kirby is fun. If you mean Kirby has always been too easy, can you really say Zelda or Metroid, for instance, were any harder after their NES installments?

>>16325623

Perhaps for a very young child, but anyone older than 8 that has trouble with either of those series post-NES is subhuman.

>>16325352

Arena was garbage, even Julian LeFay could tell you that. Daggerfall was impressive and all, but just barely playable, even at the time. Battlespire was an amazing concept screwed over by company incompetence. Redguard was a fucking joke, terrible gameplay, awful concept, and blatantly terrible programming. Oblivion and Skyrim are mediocre, but I'd say they're better than Arena and more playable (yet ultimately much shallower, less interesting, and ultimately more generic) than Daggerfall.

Morrowind was a solid, yet very bland game at the time and the only one that will stand the test of time thanks to modding efforts. But we shall see. Arena has an open source reimplementation engine up and coming, so that could be something.

>>16325636

My point is that those (and many other) Nintendo games are too easy to offer serious challenge to competent players, so any merit must come from other aspects. In the case of Kirby, it's playing with all the powers, enjoying the freedom granted by Kirby's platforming and flight, and soaking up the cutesy atmosphere of the levels.

Obviously, if those games were hard enough to really engage with mechanically, they would be better, but I don't think Nintendo or any of their fans are apt to make such a thing.

>>16325612

Kirby does just enough to keep every game fresh while not trying to needlessly reinvent the wheel or pander to an ever-increasing number of casuals since it doesn't really have to. It's slow and easy enough to where you can breeze through it if you're retarded, given enough trial and error. If you want to get all the collectibles and do the optional harder modes, which lately give you extra story stuff, that's an option, making the game more interesting.

I explained what happened to Mario in this post >>16325390 and do I really need to explain why 2D Mario went to shit after Land 2? Even World was a step-down, as both 3

before it and Land 2 after it had unique, interesting powerups and, for the time, unique stage settings (the biggest point that makes Land 2 stand out to this very day). World had little to it aside for "wow so many colors". Hell, the main gimmick, the cape, was so fucking underutilized that it took until romhacks for it to gain any real interesting use.

And again, do I really need to go over NSMB?

Zelda went to shit the moment LttP became beloved. It was the base for OoT, which subsequently became the base for the rest of the series. Everything got dumbed down. Even things like bombs became a glorified door. What puzzle is there to pressing a button next to a very clear indication in the wall? Link's Awakening at least had bombable walls that weren't marked, but you could find them as the sword would make a different sound. That is fucking perfect, but the rest of the series went with the LttP method. In Zelda 1, you could figure out which walls you can bomb with a bit of trial and error, but most often by looking at the map and trying to logic out where passage ways should be. Both of these implementations are great, but no, let's do the LttP one, the most needless mechanic yet.

Doesn't help that Zelda can either be defined as "empty open fucking world with nothing to do just to pad out the game length", as OoT, WW and BotW are, or "piss-easy linear gimmick-fest". Link's Awakening got the size right, where it felt like a real world but going from point A to B didn't give you enough time to contemplate your entire existence.

Mega Man took both routes. With X, it abandoned the simplistic, almost puzzle-like platforming that made the original games charming and with the later X games, went full fucking anime on top of some terrible game design choices. The original series, though, went on to invent progressively stupider robot masters with progressively stupider weapons. It was downhill from 4 onwards, and the increasing focus on X was the biggest factor.

In terms of story, Kirby has only improved as time went on. In terms of powers, it's stayed pretty consistent in terms of quality. In terms of music, it's gotten slightly better but has always been phenomenal. In terms of fun, maybe it has not lived up to Kirby's Adventure on NES or Kirby's Dreamland 2 on GB but there's still a lot of fun to be had. Has it gotten easier? Barely, from my experience. Any loss of challenge is balanced out by challenging collectibles. Basically, Kirby's newer games might be somewhat underwhelming (the new gimmicks of Robobot, Triple Deluxe and Return to Dreamland weren't that interesting), but I'll take that over going off the deepend with mechanics that make the game actively less fun.

You have to admit the game is schizophrenic and incomplete verging on broken in nearly every subsystem, in no small part due to the attempt to accommodate two different timekeeping systems. There's a fantastic game in there struggling to get out, but some sort of source port with lots of mods would be needed to reveal it.

Probably 2-3 more years. It's already far enough along to technically complete the game and get some hardcoded mods working, but there are a lot of niggling features missing, and the project basically only has one real programmer:

>>16326116

Just because DXHR was actually a decent-ish game, sure, even a step up from the (better written, but mechanics-wise) Halo-fied mess that was DXIW, but it was still a disservice to DX1. I'd put it on par with something like XCOM:EU, Might & Magic X, or Bioshock 1, as something surprisingly good for a "modern" game, but still embarrassing and bland compared to the classics, certainly wholly unworthy of sharing any of the accolades accrued by the original. I'll grant it (and its playerbase) is certainly better about acknowledging and not falsely usurping its predecessor than, say, Fallout 3/4 or nuDoom.

>Undertale/Deltarune

I'm having a ton of fun with FEAR 2. It's not as good as FEAR but it's still much better than all its contemporaries from that console generation. The school level in particular was really well done, they did horror much better than the first game, I also appreciate being able to carry 4 weapons instead of 3.

Is this the thread of shitty opinions? It seems so, also bonus for the one sentence cuckchan format

>>16325262

>Battlefield

But that had 3 good games in it. 4 if you count Bad Company 2.

>>16326366

Why is this one in particular the good one?

>>16326432

it's not

>>16326432

By some alignment of the stars or general fluke, it has a good balance of simplicity and depth with solid goal orientation. There are too many things to do consistently every given day in the time you have, but not so many that you cannot do them all with careful planning (and thus demonstrate mastery of the game). 64 certainly isn't without its own flaws (very cryptic mechanics in some instances), but it does things at a competent enough level

This is in contrast to basically every other game in the series, which always has some debilitating fundamental flaw of its own to deal with. In some games it's an extreme lack of depth, in others it's too much depth of the kind that poses no meaningful decisions for the players, in others it's a slave-like pandering to realism resulting in tedium in accomplishing basic tasks, in still others it's a central lack of goal orientation to test the player's skill resulting in a "game" where all you really do is fuck around.

I'm convinced that Harvest Moon 64 really was just a fluke on the developer's part, because they've never successfully demonstrated the ability to identity what that game does well and emulate it in subsequent games.

>>16326429

>4 if you count Bad Company 2.

You wouldn't of course unless you were a shit eater.

>>16326680

Yeah, I don't and I haven't even really played it, but I see a ton of anons mention it here.

All of the Deus Ex games are good. Just not as good as the original.

>>16325982

Ah yes, a faggot.

Random generation can not make a game good or fun. Roguelikes are fun because of the base mechanics, not the level design. An actual RPG should have designed levels. Daggerfall has a handful of designed levels, with the rest being generic, unplayable, and generally atrocious randomly generated wastepiles. I'm sorry anon, you're a nigger.

Yeah, that's why Dead Space belongs here.

>>16325857

FC's strongest point was the mutants. Replace all the trigens with grunts and you get a barely average budget schooter. This is why FC works better as a survival horror title than a shooter.

You're forgetting Blood Dragon. Arguably the best FC, better than the first two combined.

There are several series I can think of that went on but have no good games, but I'm having trouble coming up with anything where I'd say that there is only one. Even series that have deteriorated a lot tend to have at least one other game that would be good in a vacuum.

>>16326366

SNES, BTN, and FoMT are all good games. Liking 64 best out of all of them is a perfectly defensible opinion, but it's certainly not the only good game in the series.

>>16326859

>Eva is trash

Look, evangelion is amazing, but for the reasons no one ever discusses or even knows. The people who claim it's amazing cause it's 2deep4jew are morons. The reason NGE is amazing is because it's pure uncut self flagellation of the creator, with a company (gainax) stepping in to call him a retard for not whipping himself correctly (not enough waifus and merchandise characters) and pouring salt in his bleeding wounds (fuck your cohesive story, wrap that shit up and make it happy) only for the victim of his transgressions (the fans) to burst in the room and start pissing in his mouth (the death threats and various graffiti hideaki Anno received) because he didn't finish flagellating himself.

Hideaki Anno is the original Brendan fraiser, if not in similar instances, in being JUSTd.

And this all started because his little 7 year old ass wandered into the wrong movie theater and saw 40 minutes of graphic porno rape that only 60s era Japan could provide.

>Useless information

The sex scene in EoE with misato is the exact actions of the actress who was being raped in said porno, and shinji watching it is hideaki attempting to come to terms with the shit that's been weighing him down since his youth. The same actress was choked to death in the scene as well. Explains the predilection with asphyxiation and wrapped hands by hideaki, eh?

>>Nb4 this is all 2deep4you shit

No, this is all surface level shit. evangelion is the most pure spilling of a man's trauma on screen there will ever be, and then a company came in and succeeded in merchandising and whoring his pain. That is why evangelion is great.

>>16327001

I need Anno was a self-hating tard, but I didn't know any of that, holy fuck.

>>16327021

When you know it, it makes watching evangelion just a bit better. You can take a look at all the 2deep shit in evangelion and realize the real reasons they are there that the shit heels who often claim evangelion is amazing never knew.

>All that shit involving Christian style religion?

Hideaki absorbed tons of religious texts during his teens and early 20s in an attempt to find peace

>Rei being absent then shoved in ham fisted

Hideaki grew to hate his own mother and anything related in any way to her and often times wrote out rei only to shove her back in out of guilt.

>Zero characters having good relationships with the opposite sex

Hideaki spent his entire life both fearing and fearing for women. It leads to things like kaji fucking a 14 year old off screen, akagi getting shot by hideakis idea of what a man should be, and shinji getting routinely pegged by anything with a pussy.

Hell, if you can find it, there was a info-collective of all the things Anno has said and written over the years, which is explaining everything that happens in NGE. Why he wrote that, why this character does that. There were snippits of his scrapped autobiography in there as well.

In short, some people like keeping a Bible handy while watching the matrix to understand the references, I recommend a few psychological textbooks and a bottle of bourbon

>>16327000

SNES is too simple, it just doesn't have enough going on mechanically. Back to Nature is basically like a bad ROMhack of HM64 with annoying load times and absolute shit controls. Friends of Mineral Town would be great with all its mechanical improvements on 64, if it were an actual fucking game. Sadly, the fact that there is never an ending or evaluation of the player's progress means there are no real goals and the game never tests you on anything, making it just a boring simulator.

>>16327071

Part of the fun with fighting against grunts was that you were able to perform a variety of tactics against them. You would need to aim for their head properly and gunplay felt pretty satisfying because of it. Mutants were bulletsponge enemies who knew where your location was at every point.

>>16326964

>You're forgetting Blood Dragon. Arguably the best FC, better than the first two combined.

My issue with Blood Dragon is that it had the right tone and the right aesthetic, but it still utilizes Far Cry 3's engine which emphasizes stealthy approaches to take out more than two enemies. For a game that's all about balls to the wall action, going in guns blazing and being macho as fuck if you tried running at an enemy you'd get about five feet before he pumps you with two slugs and you're in a critical state.

>>16326964

>You're forgetting Blood Dragon. Arguably the best FC, better than the first two combined.

It's still like 5-6 hours long which really puts a damper on it.

>>16327262

Maybe I do, but I'm a sitting duck when I'm using the minigun which, again, leads to death when there's more than two enemies in the vicinity. I'll never understand people's affinity for a game that kinda lies to you about what it is.

I'm sorry, but as much as I love some of the characters and iconography from Killer 7, it's a really shitty game. The gameplay is boring and half-broken, the puzzles are intelligence-insultingly easy, and the story, while showing a lot of potential to be interesting and cool, is incomprehensible, and what little you can decipher is incredibly up its own ass.

>>16329091

Nice wrong opinion

>>16325800

Let me counter-signal you in good faith. SF1 on SNES isn't too bad but mostly awkward due to being balanced around a very low framerate. SF2 is actually pretty nuts, though. The whole game being dogfighting and choosing your targets and trying to play efficiently (most notable in the highest difficulty) is a lot for a 3D SNES game.You can arguably even fly to or towards other objectives in space without going to the map, if your current target happens to fly towards it while fighting. There's a lot there and it's a shame it was never released until the SNES Classic. One day I might play that to see how it holds compared to the fan finish.

Like >>16325856 though, I'm assuming you're talking about SF64 which is also alright. I ultimately think SF2's highest difficulty is the most replayable SF game though.

>>16325183

anon Desu Sex was a normal fag game from day one.

>>16332471

Then why does every fag I knew from college think it started with HR?

>>16332471

Deus Ex is exactly the kind of game that nobody would play unless they're willing to take the risk that the ugly graphics for it's time was a false alarm and not a red flag.

>>16332498

>2000

>ugly graphics

Anon it was a good looking game back in the day that graphic whore normal fags loved.

>>16332488

they weren't saying HR, they where saying HRT because you are a tranny.

>>16332506

>they weren't saying HR, they were saying HRT because you're a tranny

Gottem.

>hitman

Hitman: Blood Money.

>>16332506

>back in the day

This is the kind of history revisionism that I'd expect to see from someone who can't even tell that the game is made in Unreal. The game is ugly, at the time of it's release everyone who hated it and loved it thought it was ugly. It's not just a matter of textures but everything about it from the way physics are handled to hitboxes screams a rush job, which it is. Despite this it still gained a following by it's own power.

>>16332572

dude sex was panned pretty hard for looking worse than unreal and half-life despite being 2 years newer and running several times worse.

>>16332581

>RPG was panned pretty hard for looking worse than unreal and half-life despite being 2 years newer

No

>>16332605

>RPG means ugly

don't be that stupid

>>16332612

>RPG in y2k means ugly

yes

>>16327071

Didn't Kaji reject Asuka?

>>16327001

>And this all started because his little 7 year old ass wandered into the wrong movie theater and saw 40 minutes of graphic porno rape that only 60s era Japan could provide.

I thought this was Itoi and became the inspiration of Gygas?

>>16332648

>Baldur's Gate 2, Morrowind, FFX, etc., weren't lauded for their graphics

thanks for proving my point with bad graphics games as an example. Thy you Tod Howard try hard fell it necessary is a trip. But whatever fam tbh afk ochimoochi dot twitter dot never mind again on in-till infinity. L33T shanaynay bitch made. Never forever. Jewgle forever ever. Tower of babel is a mistake you dumb kike. We will all die 4 your sins. Whatever and ever amen, forgive me.

>>16332647

You are right, I'm a dumb fucking faggot and should be ashamed of myself.

Hideaki Anno had a cookie cutter bad childhood, with his mother and father having horrid fights, but the part of him being obsessed with strangulation does come from seeing some porno during his prepubescent years.

I'm still a stupid cunt for getting the two mixed up

>>16332640

Publicly, yes he did. Kaji also needed to do something to her to make her obsessed with him, and in the Japanese audio, you can hear a conversation where he's talking about how "it wasn't worth it because now she's obsessed with me"

>>GTA

2 was a good game

stop it

>>16333176

>Macking on

I wonder what that would mean if it was translated into English.

>>16333587

Probably a perversion of "smacking on" as in "smack-talk"

>>16325237

HR was worse than Invisible War, except it had armies of journos praise as a masterpiece.

>>16326191

dead rising 2 sucked

>hey what if we added another timed thing to do ontop of the normal game timer?

>bro it would be sick to remove the whole "in a mall and you gotta use anything to survive" thing and just have most of the game be a las vegas strip, with 2 small mall parts

<What if we made all the weapons not fit in with the theme, but also make them useless just so people are forced to use the workbench

chuck the cuck and his AIDS infested daughter was a shit idea for a game, that doesnt even take place in a big mall

>>16333724

Anon, HR certainly had many flaws, but at least it didn't have loading screens every 30 feet, or unified ammo. HR was stupid, but IW was stupid and broken.

>>16333647

>>16333587

It's supposed to mean flirting.

>>16334413

Stop posting any time

>>16334413

Oblivion is ok, not good. Otherwise I agree with everything else

>>16332618

That Golden Axe Zelda clone on the Master System was fun.

>>16334413

>implying F.E.A.R 2 isn't good

Is it? I finished 1 and I've looked at some videos of 2, but it didn't strike me as a game that was true to the original.

>>16334489

Fear 2 is okay. The story is kind of disjointed, its more action-y, and it has less atmosphere imo. All the hallmarks of a sequel. Worth bargain bin price at least.

3 is where it gets fucky

>>16332506

>it was a good looking game back in the day

You know how I know you weren't around back then?

>>16333176

Not my cup of tea but I respect your opinion, I'm biased towards Morrowind because it was released right about the time I got into videogames, I think I'm gonna download Daggerfall on my phone.

>>16334413

Oblivion isn't good, it is passable.

Deus Ex graphics were bad for sure even by the standards of the time but the size of the levels was impressive.

>>16326421

Japs' autism single handedly kept the series alive, their shit taste has no measurable bounds but fortunately MHWorld came of it, I am as surprised as you are.

>>16334413

>implying F.E.A.R 2 isn't good

The good: pretty cool gore effects, some scenes had a nice ambiance, creepy zombies (the guy waiting for the taxi cab, and the other playing the piano), the anticlimactic QTE confrontation against Col. Vanek was oddly satisfying (it was funny to mash the E key and blow the head of the main villain -with his own shotgun- even though the guy never really feels like a threat. The fact that he's also trapped in between two doors is fucking hilarious to me)… that's about it.

The interface takes up too much space on the screen and even adds bent lines to outline the view for no fucking reason. Gunfights are not as satisfying as in the previous game mostly because all guns feel like they lack punch and there's way fewer particles. There's only one save slot (come the fuck on). Most of the music is rehashed from the first game. The story is so fucking mediocre that Monolith knew you wouldn't pay attention, and thus you are reminded every five minutes of what's going on thanks to the most ham-fisted dialogues I ever had the displeasure of being harassed with:

>Oh my God! Armacham board of directors is attempting to kill the CEO and everybody else involved.

>I never thought Armacham would use its personal army to kill all the witnesses.

>Who would have thought Armacham was so evil, they are ready to kill everyone.

>Armacham will stop at nothing to erase all traces of their involvement in this case.

>Do you know who you're shooting yet? That's right. Armacham. Because they are evil. And they want to erase all traces of the project.

It fucking never ends. It's like they took the first game and dumbed it down as much as they cool so that an idiot with the attention span of a goldfish knows what the fuck is happening.

Also, your sidekicks dumb dialogue before they get killed by Alma are so fucking obvious it's insulting

>I hear a woman crying, I'll go and check it out alone! I'll be right back.

Not to mention the nonsensical JamesBond-esque settings… the first underground hospital was stupid enough that I really got pissed off when I arrived to the school: how is it not suspicious to anyone that, when building a school, you have to dig deep enough to create a whole top-secret research center? How did nobody notice when the top-secret lair in question was being built. How do you replenish supply and computers to the top-secret facility when the only access is located under the infirmary? How does no one hear the mega elevator moving if they are bringing down kids there during school time? How come nobody wonders whether it's a good idea or not to let a military corporation own a school? Each subsequent level is stupider than the last.

And those fucking easter eggs… they become so obnoxious that "Breast feeding for men", "do it yourself surgery", "A guide to creating clones", "when surgery goes bad and other gruesome tales" are funny book titles when you see them the first time, but shit like this is fucking everywhere.

I never felt miserable playing a video game before, but F.E.A.R. 2 did that for me. It feels like a parody of the original game, and you're being reminded of how better the first was every step you take. While Armacham felt like a legit company that went overboard because of a few employees, it's now a mustache-twirling villain and they might as well write "we're evil, get over it" as the header of each and every memo and contract they print.

Fuck this trash game.
