Sorry, OP, but this is a topic for >>>/jp/

I would normally agree, but their threads on the matter are abysmal. I've seen much better come out of /vr/ in the past.

Have you read Tae Kim?

Guaranteed replies though with /v/.

That's not how we greentext here on 4chan

Non pc stuff? Care to specify?

What? Politically correct?

>>2958075
As in not politically correct.

I love the franchise a lot, but this game - not so much. The floaty controls and camera movements gave me nausea and headaches as a kid, so I'm having a hard time trying to play it again now that I'm older.

With that said, the art is nice and the music great, for both the Megadrive and the Saturn versions. I do enjoy the Saturn special stages a lot.

The maneuvering took some getting used to, but I enjoyed it. I would actually count it as my favorite Sonic title from the Genesis / MD era. S3&K was great, but that whole formula had already peaked with Sonic 2. I mean, if you've played one side-scrolling platformer, you've basically played them all. It's nice to have an occasional sequel that takes the series in a different direction.

The faux-3d was awful. It would've been ok if it controlled in a tight manner like Mario. Very cool boss fights though

As for me, I wonder, how Bucky O'Hare got parallax scrolling backgrounds. Did it use some mappers or it is some voodoo programming?

Sorry, forgot to add.

Parallax scrolling is just background images moving slower than foreground images.

Why are these threads so dead lately? Did everyone just fuck off to the /vg/ thread?

>>2952797
These threads used to be shitposting in the purest form.

And if somebody ever mentioned danmaku you'd get anti-waifu-shitposters, danmaku-hating old farts and the likes enraged,

>>2952797
shmups are dead enough that /vg/ can discuss retro shmups too, so these threads tend to only get shitposters like >>2954114 said

Splonk!
Wizard's Cavern
Joseph Grice's Baseball
Lord Loughney

Why don't you just google it? You've given next to information on what you do or do not want.

Just play any Epyx/Origin/Lucasarts/Microprose/Accolade/Electronic Arts stuff. Be aware that this thread will be flooded with Yurosemens promoting bad tape shovelware.

I guess most people didn't buy it the first time because failed to notice this was the whole trilogy, not just the vita port. Looking forward to shitposts complaining $30 is too much and the japanese can't into good programming (the game is locked to something like 720p).

>>2947324
>(the game is locked to something like 720p)
Well that is undeniable that it is retarded, are all the 3 games like that?

Still, I want it, was already self-flagellating for not getting them when I had the chance so I'm jumping on it as soon as I can.

>>2947327
Umihara is the waifu/mascot for /vr/. She has been here longer than you.

>>2945856
Nothing, it's a fucking game. Are you 12?

>>2945861
Yes.

What is this? It looks familiar, like I could have played it.

Super Mario Bros. 3 and Super Metroid come to mind.

Super metroid for sure, I was too impatient for it when i was a kid.

I hated horror games as a kid, quite like silent hill now.

>>2928792
Did this just happen today? I watched it in the old /vr/ thread 2 or 3 days ago.

>>2928796
Well /v/ is exploding with this now. That video has spawned a whole new range of dank memes.

I heard it breaks more than it fixes and it's easier to mod the originals to fix the things that were originally wrong with them (being too easy, sometimes not being authentic to the rulesets, correction of bugs and exploits)

so what people will suggest is that you pirate all the basic versions of the trilogy, then spend 6 hours modding them all into one beautiful interwoven mess of the kind of balance crimes that are correctly characteristic of the Dungeons and Dragons experience

the only downside...

Enhanced Edition is fine. I'm sure someone will post a litany of reasons why its not.

I'm going to try my best to wager the pros and cons of EE, but I will, obviously, be biased, since I prefer the originals. So cons first:
>A normal game can be easily modded close to the level of EE (high resolution, BG1->BG2 mechanics, etc.) with just a few minutes of looking for fixes. There's a few things that EE does which are pretty unique (like the ability to zoom in), but I never found any use for them when playing. EE is more expensive; up to you if downloading a single Fixpack and maybe some widescreen mods is worth the bonus $$$.
>EE will likely never support certain mods that the community enjoyed but that haven't been imported. The absolutely terrific Northern Tales of the Sword Coast aren't compatible with BG1EE, and neither is Tactics mod for BG2EE (though it's had better successors). I've also seen reports about Ascension (which makes Throne of Bhaal so, so much better) not working well with BG2EE, but I can't confirm this at the time.
>EE has a lot of "fanfic" additions. Some of the NPCs might feel off (bonus EE NPCs stand out horribly from classic BG1 NPCs in particular; might feel kinda uncanny, one may even call them special snowflakes), the new items in BG1EE kinda screw up the low magic feel of BG1, with some being overpowered.
>With the above in mind, in terms of fanfic bonus content, EE is beaten by World of Baldur's Gate, which is an easily installable, stable Big World installation which updates classic BG, adds a couple of decent story/NPC/item/location mods to it and combines BG1+BG2+IWD1 into a single game. WoBG and EE are mutually exclusive. Some argue that the liberties taken with EE by Beamdog mean that you might as well go all the way and install WoBG.
