Guacamelee Gold

Original developers outsourced the update to someone who doesn't get how to make these games. All the content and additions are worse than what is in the gold version.

Is there a nigger for every race?

Honestly, any of them. I played through this recently and was massively unimpressed.

The combat was okay, but there are only a couple enemy types and you beat them all pretty much the same way.

I was just playing this game. I'm not going to lie the combat in the game is just so fucking satisfying.

I never seen anything on it from /v/. Prepare for everyone to call it "guacameme" fuck

This guy was cool.

I'll always wonder why they filled the game with memes when the gameplay is actually decent.
You just know what every meme included is now so outdated that people probably don't even remember them.

>>339651203
There wasn't even that many memes tbqh, just lots of parodies of other games which should stand up to the tests of time

Fun beat 'em up, mediocre Metroidvania and platformer.

It's too easy as well.

Half those games are not even Metroidvanias. Just because something has some backtracking in it doesn't make it one.

One of the more overrated games in recent history. Praise all around when it was an alright level game. I had some fun but I wouldn't play it again.

I liked Guacamelee Gold better, AFAIK Gold is way less broken than Super Turbo edition is. I enjoyed running through Super Turbo a few times though. Really wish the developers of this game would make a new game with the same fighting mechanics in a different setting. It's super smooth to play and a real blast to master.

This game is far from flawless but still one of my favourite. Combat was super fun and very well designed, with moves comboing into each other very well.

The boss fight against Jaguar Javier in particular is one of my favourite from any game ever.
>>
>>339651632
>Advent better than ZX

I will never stop saying no to this. It added all the "hey you are a HUGE BOSS WITH HUGE GUTS" transformations that were unwieldy and dumb but the game made you use them for various segments anyway. Also AX form is shit compared to ZX and you get ZX too late in the game.

And it isn't even a fucking Metroidvania. If Ecclesia isn't on the list, ZXA shouldn't be there either.

Besides, ZXA doesn't have level 4 victories.

Hard Mode Jaguar Javier with the increased damage mask was pretty sick. I thought it was so cool that Jaguar could cancel spam like the player could and sometimes he seemed completely unpredictable. Good shit.
>>
Dammit why are so many people saying Gold's better now? When I got this in the winter sale everyone said Gold was obsolete and just get Super Turbo
>>
>>339653425
Heads up, Mexico is nothing like that.
If you remove the memes the setting was cool though.

What are those save points called in real life, the skulls with candles on a table?

Does Within a Deep Forest fall with Knytt Stories? I actually enjoyed that more.
>>
>>339653550
Personally I enjoyed Gold more because speedrunning it didn't involve corrupting saves. At least back then.

Super Turbo is fine for playing through. The only thing I don't like about that version is that the new powerup thing is really gimmicky in some levels and makes the game even easier if you use it at boss fights.
>>
>>339652745
It means people besides those with super powers would be able to move around in such a world

>>339653416
More people than just the elite of the elite need to be able to play and enjoy your game for it to be good. Not to Cawwadoodie level or anything but if only 10 people can enjoy a game out of a thousand you'll never see a representative sample of ratings for the game
>>
>>339654149
The whole thing is based on votes.
>>
>>339653416
It's one of those games that is so obscure and different from the other games on your list that I almost want to call it a meme game. You have fringe cases of people saying they beat it without a guide because they're just so awesome, oh, but don't use a guide because you'll ruin the fun. And everybody knows the game gets stupidly cryptic as time goes on.
>>
>>339654275
The game can be appreciated without finishing it.

Literally "fuck the colour blind: the game"

This game had a good art style. Makes Mexico look cool.

>More people than just the elite of the elite need to be able to play and enjoy your game for it to be good.
They can.
>>
>>339654665
Doesn't seem to be the case to me. With something like Dark Souls even dumb people can just keep throwing themselves at the bosses and eventually win. But stupid people will never find the solutions to La Mulana's puzzles without tedious faqing.
>>
>>339652875
Metroid Fusion was linear as fuck.
>>
>>339655238
Maybe not at the end, but most of the game is perfectly approachable.
