You played it, and you liked it. Don't be ashamed.
>>341853394
I liked it but the visuals were utter ass.
I hated those GBA games that tried too hard to have pseud-3D and ended up looking like pixelated mess.
I borrowed the first game from a friend.
It was okay. Music is very memorable, didn't care for the characters.
Sequel had much better puzzles.
>>341853601
Also this. Magazines were praising it at the time, but the wonky perspective and blurry explosions during battles really bugged me.
It's a pretty good game when people aren't talking your ear off.
I liked the puzzles and I thought the gameplay system had some potential, though that potential was wasted due to the complete lack of difficulty.
The setting was good and the overall storyline was fine, but the writing was poor.
Overall, a decent game. Definitely a huge improvement from the Shining Force games.
>>341853601
They were pretty badass in 2001.
>>341853394
>You played it
Yes.
>and you liked it.
No.
As a child I gave up around the Silk Road because it was boring as fuck. I started replaying it recently and realized what's wrong with it: it's wordy and slow without saying anything of value, it's ridiculously easy, and there are no surprises. And every stop along the way feels more like an arbitrary roadblock than an adventure.
The only good part of the game is Saturos. His music is great, his design is great (aside from being monochrome), and if you skip Trent he's the hardest Boss in the series. You have to use ACTUAL TACTICS to beat him.

>>341855021
It's 2016, anon, fedora posting is out of style. If you want to shitpost, you post gross wojaks and ask someone to delete something.
Well, yeah. It was a good game.
Reading minds, telekinetic bullshittery, djinn collectan, that weird class-system they had by combining djinn. Shit was good. Graphics were kinda ass in combat though.
>>341853601
The world map is the worst offender. It's a pretty good map overplayed on a 3D plane. The problem is they did it at an angle where it doesn't even look 3D and just distorts the sprites.
>>341854530
The only boss harder that Trent-skip Saturos for me in all of Golden Sun barring Dullahan's bullshit was during my best attempt at a low-level run(boss exp only), fighting Deadbeard at Level 18.
USE DJINNI AND RISK GETTING ONE-ROUNDED BY A DOUBLE SHINE PLASMA? DON'T USE DJINNI AND RISK THE SAME THING ANYWAYS WHILE KILLING HIM VERY SLOWLY?
It is kind of a shame that -that- of all things is the only thing that particular Saturos fight can come close to in terms of difficulty.I don't think I have the patience to do it again with TLA.
>>341855221
>Overplayed
*Overlaid
>>341853394
I did, i liked it. But its not masterpiece, who even remembers the names of the characters anyway?Isaac in 5mash i want to believe
>>341854952
I like SRPGs, but Shining Force is just terrible. Awful AI, very slow gameplay, large RNG factor, minimal tactical depth. Golden Sun's battle system on the other hand is quite good.
I played it on an emulator and really liked it. Only later I realized that I was using the turbo button pretty damn often and the game would be much worse off without that option.

>>341854437
The novelty of 3D on a handheld was strong back in the day. GBA games that sticked to proper 2D graphics aged way better.
Why would you be ashamed of enjoying Golden Sun? It's a critically acclaimed and popular seriesexcept Dark Dawn of course.
>>341853601
The visuals were the best the GBA had to offer.
>>341855021

So what triggered you? The slightest hint of criticism?
>>341855592
Euro-fag, to be honest.
>>341853394
I played it until I got 4 djinns, after that the none-djinn attacks just feels useless.
>>341855964
>use djinn attacks
>lose stat boni
>die to enemy attacks
do you even strategy
everything has its place
>>341854214
Shining Force II shits on this game on every single aspect
>>341856046
>die to enemy attacks
not with that pathetic damage they do
>>341853601
I honestly, unironically, think it aged better than N64 or PS1 graphics.
>>341855625
Battle Network came out before it and had superior graphics.
No, a picture of a loli floating around while particle effects fly is not "good graphics".
>>341855315
First Boss Best Boss is the worst. I beat both games and it strikes me how stupid some of the decisions in the games are.
Like, why the fuck are Menardi and Karst two separate characters? Menardi adds fuckall and even HURTS the game, giving Saturos someone to mysteriously chatter with instead of establishing his character and letting him merge into a fuckoff dragon instead of giving you a proper Saturos2. Why the fuck are all the bosses so weak? Why all the needless padding? Both games make Xenogears feel fast paced.
>>341856194
Menardi was a weak tag-along only there to question Saturos' decisions so he'd get more smug dialogue to bloat the play time.
Hell, she's even shit in the fight.
>>341856046
Summon-set-summon-set-Isaac used Granite-summon will carry you through the whole game. It's terrible.
So... Nadia or Mia?
If I could arrest people for having wrong opinions, I'd start with anyone who dislikes the first two Golden Sun games. Honestly, I spend too much time on this shithole, when I go to ANY other forum, I see nothing but love for these games. Why does /v/ hate so many classic games? Are you just tired of hearing about them, so you shitpost in the vain hopes that someone will talk about your super obscure favorite game instead? This board is the ultimate bluepill for anyone who even remotely enjoys vidya.
>>341856194
>Like, why the fuck are Menardi and Karst two separate characters? Menardi adds fuckall and even HURTS the game
So you mean to ask, why is Menardi even in the game? Because, Menardi and Karst couldn't be the same character since Menardi died.
>>341856461
>everyone should have the same opinion or I'd arrest them
Explain to me how your biased ass is any better than a guy popping in and going "it's shit lel :)"

That's because criticism gets you banned.

What game? Up Dog?
>>341856921
Yes, obviously.I can totally understand why some people don't like Chrono Trigger, even though I think it's pretty good (not GOAT, but pretty good). We have too many kids and retards on /v/ who don't understand that it's okay to think "good" games are bad and "bad" games are good as long as you can substantiate your opinion. We have even more people who don't understand that it's okay to dislike things you know are good and like things you know are bad, sadly.
>>341858490
Yeah, Up Dog. What kind of game is it?
>>341856541
Basically, yes. If you NEED a tagalong they may as well have made Karst follow Saturos around but get separated during the earthquake at the end of part 1. Regardless of whether Karst shows up during or after the first game, Menardi is entirely redundant.
The game could use a fan project to fix the more glaring problems, like the shitty faux-mode7 world map, the low difficulty, the extremely tedious dialogue, etc.
>>341858490

Golden Sun 2 is unironically one of my favorite games of all time, no regrets there
>>341858214
Because the game is extremely simple and over-explains the shit out of things. Most people move on, but the kind of people who would cling to a game like that tend to take criticism poorly because there's no substance to the game with which to propose a counter argument.
who would be ashamed of that
I could never manage to get inside one of the very very last areas though, that was pretty annoying although I was pretty young so that's probably on me

>>341858992
>2001 was 15 years ago
There are probably people posting on /v/ that weren't born when Golden Sun was released
>>341859328
Riviera's presentation and ideas for combat were pretty cool, but it all boiled down into a very linear, boring experience that encouraged in-menu grinding. The story being shit didn't help.
At least the other Dept Heaven games are good.

Fug, I remember getting a bit turned on by Mia's outbursts when traversing through the Lamakan Desert.
>>341859461
It is pretty easy, and the Black Omen is kind of annoying and too long, especially given the replay heavy nature of the game.
And I mean, Robo basically gets two sidequests while Marle is stuck with that pretty lame one and Ayla doesn't even get a real one.
>>341853394
I played it.
I spent the whole time waiting for it to get good since it was billed as this new amazing thing.
It finally felt like something might happen and the game might start to get good.
Then the game ended a few seconds later and said 'buy the sequel!'
And then the sequel was pure, unrelenting garbage.
And the story just kept getting worse.
Djinn/Class/Psynergy system was pretty cool even if it was terribly balanced and Growth being required was abysmal game design.

Lucca's sidequest is basically a bit of a Robo sidequest too, since he's the most interesting part of it (restoring the forest). Then he has his own sidequest.
It doesn't matter much since Robo is the coolest and needs as much screen time as he can get, but it's a bit lopsided like that.
This shitter and his fuckbois on Hard Mode is actually the most difficult, to the point where it's probably turbo-broken.

>>341861461

>>341857190
It's amazing how the 1st game only took place in like 1/5 of the map.
Sheba best girl.
I really like Sole, the name they gave her in the spanish localozation.
>>341861494
Definitely one of the cooler things about the games.
>>341861802
When like 3/5 of the map is blank space, it's not all that crazy.
>>341862176
If you only count for landmass, then you could fit the 1st game worth of soil about four times in the rest of the world.
Hanging out in Lemuria was my favorite part of the series, followed closely by Colosso and Tret's Forest. Garou and the Sol Sanctum are up there as well.
I feel like TLA was so large it lost a bit of focus but I was really happy with the Indian (and to a lesser extent, various other Asian) cultures and towns presented in it. Not a lot of other games, even to this day, have shown areas like that.
>>341862567
Yeah, and most of it is barren fucking nothingness, which is why it fits.
>>341857170
Tetris is pretty good.
>>341862970
The person who designed the N tetromino is a nigger.
>>341862724
That's not even true. You can see city locations all over the map. Every single island has a location to enter. Note that the 1st game cities aren't even listed.
I'll give you that the two islands to the west could have more stuff to it, but by then you get the flying ship so it doesn't even matter anymore.
Golden Sun's combat was bad and boiled down to djinn spam, and that's precisely why the bonus boss fucks with your djin (and still dies to Djinn spam), because they couldn't figure out anything better.
Also all main characters have interchangeable personality and you could hide their faces and no one would be able to tell who's talking just based on context.
I'm still perfectly okay with people liking it. I've liked plenty of average shit.
>>341863223
When you actually add it all up, it's barely more content than the first game. It's just spread over more map space.
GS and TLA were some of my favorites. Nowadays I realize the shortcomings (wordswordswords, easy difficulty, you can abuse granite/flash/shade if you're a shitter) but I still remember them fondly.
Especially for the dungeons in TLA. Air's Rock was great.
>>341863281
Djinn spam is a cheesy tactic you chose to use. There are many other viable ways to get through combat.
That's like saying DaS has bad combat because sorceries exist.
>>341853394
GS2 > GS >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Dark Dawn
What was Saturos and Menardi's plan for the main characters anyways?
Why do they completely forget about the Mars Star when you show up again and start arguing about some rod you might not even have and why do they get in an hissyfit about kidnapping a Mercury user they didn't even need?
>>341853394
I love the Golden Sun games
>>341853394
A lot of people like it. It's some contratarian faggot that's been samefagging his retarded opinions for years that hates it.
>>341863281
The problem is they just gave you too much to work with. If everyone only got two djinn and one optional one, the entire game could be shit like Tretskip Saturos. Switching Djinn would ACTUALLY MATTER, no character could have all four types, spamming Granite or Summons would have ACTUAL repercussions, etc.
>>341863539
Nigga that's like saying Final Fantasy V is hard if you don't use jobs or Mario and Luigi is bullshit if you don't use Bros Attacks. There's a big difference between one of several builds being broken and the core combat mechanic of the game being broken.
Yes. People call it Babby's First JRPG and it very well may be, but it's still a pretty great intro to the genre, AND it picked off where the SNES FFs left off when that series went off into Nomura-land.
Plus, it was my introduction to Motoi Sakuraba. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SXqoy0KTiWI
>>341863432
Again, you have no idea what you are talking about. By the time you make it to Lemuria you already visited more content than all of the first game, and that's halfway through the second game.
You are fully convincing me you have never played these games, or at least finished them.
I liked it. I replayed it recently with a romhack, actually.

Did they forget the Mars Star? I thought they were counting on Isaac following them and bringing the Mars Star with him.

I don't remember them kidnapping a Mercury user. Unless you're getting your elements mixed up and mean Sheba, they definitely needed her for Jupiter Lighthouse.
No idea how they knew about the rod.

Basically. They imply they'll take it from Isaac the next time they meet, but they don't try to grab it at either lighthouse. It's fucking stupid.
>>341864228
Gotta emulate the mon catching trend and the PS1/Saturn era RPG penchant for obtuse completion, bruh.
>>341864090
I think the game would've been fine if the training weapon grinding wasn't incentivized, or was limited. It just makes the game a slog.
I'm sure you can go through and only master the weapons that you plan on using and a handful of others, but the opportunity to get stat ups with 0 penalty, even in a monotonous way, is to hard for me to pass up.
Yggdra Union is better anyway.

It was supposed to be an N64 game, hence the visuals. It would have been better as an N64 game instead of two games. The gameplay and battle system were flawed. How do you not let your teammates go for the other enemy when their targeted enemy is slain? Dragon Quest on the NES let you do that, a GBA game can't achieve that? That alone kills it for me.

It's kinda incentive to make sure you pick your targets carefully not mash through attack. It's a lesson to learn for other rpgs

It's almost like they made it so you have to estimate tge damage dealt in your head and not just spam A...
Someone remind me of the story line again, wasn't it basically the first game, you're tricked into doing something where you think you're the good guys going against the bad guys, but the bad guys are actually the good guys since the original good guys are tricked into being the bad guys?

Don't you dare defend that, that's poor game design, period. If two party members by default can take out one enemy working together, and you get a critical by chance, your other member should go for the next enemy, not defend. Golden Sun is an underwhelming series, and literally My First RPG used in the correct context. Dark Dawn was proof the series couldn't live up to its potential, it's just plagued by bad design choices.
>Golden sun is just Baby's First RPG!
Well, what other RPGs were out at the time that would've been good introductions to the JRPG genre?
Off the top of my head...Final Fantasy V Advance maybe?
I like how Alex becomes the strongest adept in the world, basically leaning on Godhood and is basically invincible, but does nothing with his power outside of be super condescending to your children.

Mario & Luigi. After 2001 you had much more to play with in the genre. No excuses. If Dark Dawn were an early DS title /v/ would be praising it even more.

>I played it on an emulator and really liked it. Only later I realized that I was using the turbo button pretty damn often and the game would be much worse off without that option.
Ah, that explains why this game didn't annoy me like it should have when I replayed it once.

I think he considers himself vulnerable as long as he's missing the Mars star's share of power. If Isaac and Wise One ganged up on him, he's toast.
>>341869005
Not necessarily. The Mars Star has 1/4th of the power, not Isaac. And the Wise One wouldn't do shit. Hell, it's even missing. Even if they did, he doesn't do shit in Dark Dawn when they aren't around. He just farts around and shits on you the entire time.
I played Golden Sun at release and I could not for the life of me figure out why people ended up liking the game so much. I didn't feel like there was anything special about it compared to Phantasy Star or Lufia

That explains it every other fight you see where summon spam is the main goal, because that's actually what that whole fight is expecting you do and counter it like dead in tracks. Anyone who claims dullahan is cheesed with summon rushed is overpowered serverely, if you go in at the average elapsed level of 45-55, summon spam doesn't do shit to him to keep him from starting Djinn storm bullshit and you are forced to adopt no how many summons you got in before the first storm

>halfway through the second game.
Getting to Lemuria is more like 2/3rds.
I was a pretty underwhelmed by the amount of stuff on the western side.
Great game. Don't really get all the hate for it. Recommended it to a friend two years ago and he loved it.

>most gameboy advanced games are older than people on /v/ now
>>341869743
But that would mean they're all underag...

At that generation, no pre FF7, or any FF in general was a good gateway rpg for kids at that time. Mario & Luigi is a kind of a bad intro into Rpgs because they are to heavily focused on action commands and obvious enemy muscle memory which very few other rpgs have that so not much would really translate into other games
>>341853394
Fuck yeah, I did. Shit was awesome.
>>341853394
I played it and I loved it. What's there even to be ashamed about?

>finding that point from where you can backtrack to anywhere in the game in Golden Sun 1
>>341853394
best game ever

>Good gateway = both simple AND generic
Nah nigga. Pokemon was a huge gateway into RPGs for kids.
>>341866945
Is this guy actually harder than the Dreadbeard or whatever was called from the first game?
>>341872551
Pokemon didn't do shit. I knew so many who love the shit out of pokemon, but couldn't bother to even start rpgs like final fantasy growing up because the story and combat was too complex to follow for them at that age. Golden Sun was the right amount of simple to follow to get kids hooked into Rpgs
>>341873559
Yes, Dreadbeard ain't shit compared to him
>>341859328
>Boring turnbased shit
I hate you and everything you choose to be.
