Name a long running series which has no bad games.

If there even is another one besides this.

Do I get to count Itadaki street games? Those are kind of shit.

1/2 are kinda shitty by today standards. Plus there are some poo sidegames Im sure. But it'll be my favorite series.

Metroid, wait no. Zelda...nope. Castlevania, arg. Sim City, oh right Sim City 5 and Cities.

Nope, can't think of a single one.

>>330407927

>Main Line Games

Love'em, and you are correct in saying there isn't any terrible ones in the lot, though some of them haven't aged well (like #2). Haven't played 10 though.

>Monster Series

Great games. One of the only pokemon-like games where I've actually captured (or to be more accurate, bred) them all.

>Torneko games

Only played the playstation one. I liked it alright.

>Slime games

The DS one (i.e. the only one released state side) was great. I wish it was a bit more expanded on the ship combat though.

>Everything else

Shit, probably. I don't know. Never played them except itadaki street, which I didn't much like personally.

>1/2 are kinda shitty by today standards.
But by the standards of their day, they were near the top of the NES library. I'd put them on the same level as Mario 1 and 2. Only really outdone by Zelda 1 and Kirby's Adventure.

Had some of the best gameplay in the seires which made up for the bad plot.

>>330408936

Not a bad game. Just doesn't reach the lofty heights of its predecessors. And even then, tons of people cite it as their favorite. Though admittedly it was probably their first one.

As someone who was disappointed in Dragon Quest IX, I still can't call it a 'bad' game. By all accounts, its still one of the best games on the DS.

I bet you thought FE:Awakening was a "bad game" too.
>>
>>330409259
It's my favorite, and my first game was the original Dragon Warrior. It's basically a modern day III with a shit ton of content.

How about all SMT games.

Kirby.

Also, Dragon Quest 9 wasn't that good.

Just counting main series here since Nintendo have turned it into a cash cow anyway, but Pokemon. There are mediocre/ok games, but none of them are bad. Closest games are probably ORAS but I didn't hate playing through it.

The new Canvas curse isnt good. Its not bad its just a low quality Kirby game
Other than that Kirby is perfect

Diamond/Pearl are worst than mediocre tho
>>
>>330409845

Ruby/Sapphire, Diamond/Pearl and Black/White can all be classified as bad in my view. Their updated versions were better. And even then, I'd say Platinum and Black/White 2 were still bad thanks to super slow combat, long animations and linear progression. Though tons of defenders are gonna swoop in here and bitch at me for saying so.

fite me faggts

Brawl was lazy and the worst in some aspects, but only because it's the first one to have online and a lot content, and by a lot I mean a shitton. Also it was casual, because it was in a casual console

Earth Defense Force

Insect Armageddon was Western developed trash that isn't even considered a mainline game, so series integrity remains.

There's a reason for that.

Don't bring trash like FE into a DQ discussion, faggot.

>I wish it was a bit more expanded on the ship combat though.
Funny, just look at any screenshot of the third Slime game and you see nothing but ships. Maybe the devs thought the same.
I wish they'd fucking bring it over.
>>
>>330409845
RBY is pretty awful

Elder Scrolls.

They aren't bad games they just don't live up to their potential.

Jedi Knights Series.
Warlords Battlecry.
Warcraft.

Tactics Ogre, if you can consider that "long running"

fallout series wouldve been, if new vegas and the shit turned based games werent in the picture.

Let's remeber that DQMJ 2 took 1 year and half in localizing.

WE WILL GET THE SEQUEL right?

3, 4 and Tactics are the shitty games in the series

tactics isnt that bad, i liked it a lot more than 3 and 4.
>>
>>330412539

Dragon Quest Monsters 1 and 2 haven't been localized after 4 years. There will be hell to pay if they localize Joker 3 and not those games.

Though in my mind, SE should already be criticized for not releasing Dragon Quest X. Which is both a mainline game and a MMO. And better than FFXIV.

Remakes of Dragon Quest Monsters 1 and 2 came out for 3DS. In 2012 and 2014 respectively. With the ability to transfer monsters from Joker 2.

Daily reminder this guy accepted Dragonlord's offer and becoming common mooks.

Can't even use that Hero's armor.
>>
>>330413689

>Daily reminder this guy accepted Dragonlord's offer
He didn't. If he did, then Dragon Quest II wouldn't have happened.

Dragon Quest Builders is a 'what if' told in an alternate reality where the hero did accept his offer.

>and becoming common mooks.

What?

Well, in best case, this will be a "mario bros 2 lost levels" things.

Counting main series only, Final Fantasy
> Inb4 contrarians

>>330413880
He's that guy you fought before acquiring magic crystal.
>>
>>330414612

Its not being contrarian when Final Fantasy fans themselves don't like half the games. And its not a big surprise, since the series focuses so hard on throwing out all past ideas and starting over each game. As well as different teams working on each game. Its the exact opposite of consistency. Its chaos producing the occasional good game and a host of not so good ones in between.

I thought 6 was very slow and not too engaging. Pretty shitty compared to 4 and 5.
