I disagree. MGSV might not be setpiece driven like 1 and 3 but it's definitely a Metal Gear game. The only difference is that now the missions play out in different ways depending on the player. MGSV kinda did this with it's outposts but here it's fully realized.

It's a helluva lot better then 2 and 4 anyway.

Nah, i can't agree in the slightest, they have good moments, but they are badly designed (Except for the Advance series) when they have you playing as alternate characters that change drasticly from Sonic gameplay for the mayority of the game

If i only enjoy what could be 30% of the content (And not only me, a lot of fans don't like the alternate gameplay styles) then it's not a good game, it's a badly designed game with good moments

SA2B is a great Sonic game, definitely the peak of 3D Sonic games but the mandatory switching shit was lame. Also I missed having a hub world.

Also it has all that end-game content NOBODY sees. Hidden outfits, themes, Chaos Chao, Green Hill Zone, Egg Robo, etc. It really makes me wonder why Sega included shit in the game that NOBODY would access without cheats.

That being said...

S&K is fucking hard. I played that shit today as Knuckles thinking "I'm a grown-ass man, I should be able to beat this game no problem" and I got a Game Over at Sandopolis Zone.

Those fucking ghosts are stressful as hell to deal with. Plus the timer is really unforgivable.

Dude it's 3rd act and final mission were scrapped.

It's really a tragedy. The final mission was supposed to have the head-injury effects from the very first mission (where you can't see certain colors) and part of the challenge was fighting off hazmat-clad enemies while not being able to tell which one was wearing bright red (Liquid)

Sounds cool as shit. Also that jungle island map... What a loss.

Super Paper Mario has a special place in my heart because when I initially purchased it, I was really angry about the whole "not paper mario" thing and put off playing the game past the first 30 minutes for about 2 years.

I don't think Super Metroid defined anything. I think Metroid was defined by the first game, Super just refined it.
Symphony completely changed Castlevania.
>>
>>337422897

>Twilight Princess was the Zeldiest Zelda out of them all, though.
Zelda 1 would be the most 'Zelda' game if you are trying to consider its roots. Twilight Princess was the game that went the farthest away from Zelda 1. Where Zelda 1 was almost devoid of story and focused purely on exploration and item progression, Twilight Princess was almost devoid of exploration and focused on story/cinematics above all else. And while Skyward Sword also focused too much on cinematics, it still had more nods back to games like LTTP, Link's Awakening, Minish Cap and Wind Waker than Twilight Princess did.

Twilight Princess is effectively the least Zeldaesque game of the series. Some people like that, some people don't.
>>
>>337424072
From a gameplay standpoint, I disagree. Super greatly expanded on the concept of Metroid, while Fusion and Zero are more refinements from Super.
>>
>>337422943
Definitely this one. I loved this game when it came out, and I played the TTYD and N64 after finishing super.
>>
>>337423393

It had enough connections to Chrono Trigger. On my last playthrough, I counted 42 seperate tie ins to Chrono Trigger. From vague references to the Great Explorer Toma and Ayla to blatant references like Bathizar, Lucca, Marle, Chrono and Epoch. As well as the Kingdom of Porre invading the land.

The real issue is like you said, its just told in the most convoluted, veiled way possible that most people didn't get it. Also because it didn't have a similar combat engine.
>>
>>337424487
Though Symphony was a greater change for that franchise. I give you that.

I meant by 3D Zelda standards it's the Zeldiest.

>Twilight Princess was almost devoid of exploration

Only at first. The game opens up more after the second temple.

The rewards for exploration are another thing entirely.

As for nods to previous games, Twilight Princess stroke Ocarina of Time's dick any chance it got, moreso than any other Zelda game. Regardless, having nods to past Zelda games doesn't really make a game more "Zeldaesque", it just means one game has more fanservice than the other.
>>
>>337425378

No, it still isn't. That would be Ocarina of TIme which set the standard of all the games that followed it.

It´s a legit mediocre game, not even good.
Ironically the best way to describe it would be "it just works, but does nothing", the game has no noteworthy content or mechanical aspect that is better than okay, and several really shitty ones, it is the textbook description of a game by someone who had an idea but not the wherewithal to do it, again, very ironic.
