You almost got me OP. Here's your reply.
>>334562898
Sonic 4 is better than shovel knight, shantae, wooly world, and freedom planet. Its short but serves as a good rollercoaster game and has its moments. Not even him. although DK defeinitely deserves to be up there, and mark of the ninja should be replaced by rayman origins.
>>334563294

>>334561843
In a generation filled with platformers, you have somehow managed to pick the absolute most phoned-in titles of that genre.
I'm pretty sure I'm getting trolled, right now.
>>334563294
Shantae isn't a traditional platformer, it's a metroidvania
You are baiting right?
>>334563560
Yeah thats not really my genre so i dont know. I pirated one of the recent ones forgot the name and was really bored by it. I think its just another one of those games that just has a meme following because of waifu shitters because i didnt see anything in it.
>>334562898
>Shantae
Pirate's Curse is the only halfway decent one and it still don't shine
Still better taste than OP though
>>334561843
>Sonic 4
okay, sure OP, whatever you say. Sonic 4 was definitely better than Rayman Origins, Legends, all of the Shantae games, Shovel Knight, all of the New Super Mario Bros. games, Donkey Kong Country Returns/Tropical Freeze. For sure.
>>334561843
>>334563294
>>334564454
Shantae, shovelknight, and NSMB are garbage. The first dkc isnt all that great either because of garbage controls. And TF has its own share of problems with weak level design. Just because its nintendo doesnt mean its good, tard.
>>334561843

Wow
>>334561843

Sonic 4 is unredeemable I cant believe im actually replying to a thread where its in a top 5 list
What is with you fuckers today?
>>334564774
Why is NSMB bad? The Wii U one was the tits
It is quite challenging (imo) and the level design is okay
Is soulless really a damn complaint?
And it is much better than Sonic 4, I'll say this

>>334565323
I just enjoyed Sonic 4 more than any other shovelware like Shovel Knight and Shantae
>>334565251
NSMB1 and U are solid
NSMB2 isnt fun
NSMBWii is ok.
I just miss Mario 64 sequels. Where the fuck is my non flagpole 3d mario?
>>334561843
>Sonic 4

I mean, Episode II was all right, but the whole experience is just crap regardless.
Hell, it's so bad, they ended the damn "series" on a cliffhanger and even deleted the Good Ending that hinted at the third episode.But I imagine you're baiting, in which case good job. If you're being serious, please consider smothering yourself with a pillow. Humanity will thank you.
>>334565489
Galaxy 2 was released in 2010 or 2011?
>>334565489
Exactly
I don't get the criticism for it
I really enjoyed 3D land although it might not be want you want. Galaxy 1 and 2 are solid 3D platformers too
>>334561843
The new Strider isn't even a traditional platformer.

It's the old good hack n' slash in a 2D setting
Fuck you !
Hipsters love to divide gaming into thousands of sub-genres
Strider and Super Metroid are platformers to me in the same way Rayman Origins is
>>334565629
Sonic Colors, right off the bat.
If you want 2D exclusively platforms, Giana Sisters. Mighty Switch Force. Gunvolt.
Hell, I'll even throw in Mighty No.--pfff, okay, I can't even say that with a straight face. Mighty No. 9 is permanently garbage tier.
I'd rank Shovel Knight better than Sonic 4 in a heartbeat solely because I've gotten far more enjoyment and replayability that a ported mobile game like Sonic 4 could ever give.
>>334565553
Yeah its been like 5 years.
>>334565584
I liked 3D land and World well enough but they are basically the 2D games applied in 3D. Its cool just not what I want from 3D Mario.
I guess Nintendo has run out of ideas after Galaxy 2
>>334565873

>Shovel Knight is shovelware
DK on the wii u tropical freeze was good, I liked it a lot, just found they could have improved the controls but it's a very solid game
>>334566035
It it wasn't for the hipsters reviewers giving 10/10 before the release, it would be costing 2 dolars a brand new copy of this shit game called Shovel Knight
>>334565993
As I understand it, the demo that got released basically has the single player complete. It's only missing LUA scripts to access the blocked off levels.
Unless they are going back and actually fixing the single player campaign, it sounds like everything is pooling into some "mysterious glitch" that hinders online play. I don't buy it for a second, personally, but the only thing we can do is wait as you say.
>>334566086
The controls were perfect though. He's an ape, he's suppose to feel heavy.
>>334566153
Not him but what's wrong with Shovel Knight? I can't think of anything outright bad about the game. It's a very competently put together game. The fact they keep supporting it with free content and updates is good as well.
>>334566153
Oh knock it off
>>334566256
If Shovelware Knight was releasedi n the 2000s, the game would get 6.5 AT BEST
IGN, destructoid and gamespot gave better socres for Shovel Knight than Strider, claiming the 8-bit "retro feel" was ''awesome''
>Retro feel
> reason to give the game a good score
>>334566684
You didnt actually answer his question, anon.
>>334566684
New Strider sucked dick.
I remember when strider was announced at Playstation US blog, everyone was excited
It ws developed by the same developer of Front Mission Evolved
But after 2 months everyone started to say bad things about the game based on screenshots
Even Guacamelee! is bad compared to Strider
>>334566684
That's not the game's fault, for how reviewers decide to score it.
>>334567067
Shovel Knight music give me headaches, it's stupid odd beat noise, distorted drums all over the place it's a fucking mess
Other than that the game is ugly, DuckTales (original NES) is beautiful compared to Shovelware Knight
Daily reminder that reviewers are hipsters:

>>334567062
>Even Guacamelee! is bad compared to Strider
you're not making any sense
>>334567062
I recall people on /v/ being all like "yo new Strider holy shit" then we found out the dev and they were like "yo that dev is trash bro" and "capcom needs to stop fucking licensing their IP's out to westerners"
Then it came out and many people seemed to like it, not the greatest thing in the world but it was actually pretty solid
>>334567336
You're trying way too hard.
>>334566238
Then they should design levels and platforms that support the weight hes given. I have the exact same problem with TF as I did with classic sonic in sonic generations: they make the character very heavy and drop fast, but put platforms JUST in reach, resulting in every jump needing to be a perfect jump otherwise youll die or get put in a lower area. Its annoying how something as simple as a jump in a platformer is worrisome because of how heavy the characters are how high up the platforms are
>>334567336
Thank you for reminding me how good Shovel Knight's music is

The one thing I don't get about Indies is it's supposed to be independent, but everyone who's "Indie" these days whether it's self-proclaimed or not is actually supported by a company.
If you ask me, you shouldn't be "Indie" unless you're a one-man team peddling your shit off on your own site or at the local supermarket.
>>334567968

But it sucks, she made a poor job and the whole soundtrack is horrible
I find interesting people gave strider bad review because it was too difficult
1) I beat the game in medium and died less than 15 times
2) There is an easy option
3) People complain that games today are easy
Who is excited for Shantae: Half-Genie Hero ?
Strider's map
FUCKING HUGE it never gets boring
This thread is shit. Mostly because OP is a colossal faggot and it's too early in the morning for this.
For the longest time, I thought the game was simply called "Mark the Ninja", not "Mark OF the Ninja". You can't imagine my disappointment upon this realization.

why should I stupid bitch
The recent Strider is surprisingly "okay". It's got a quite a few issues that need ironing out and improvement, but it's not what I can honestly call "shit".
Some of the bosses like the Pooh sisters can be alright, but some are literally just normal enemies given a life bar (case in point, that yellow fucker with the chain-rocket arms, literally becomes a normal enemy the next screen over). Speaking of enemies, there was no need for a shield fucker to break your flow every fucking half a screen. It's not clever, it's not challenging, it's just stupid and annoying.
Map is retardedly huge in a bad way (makes backtracking a colossal bitch) and has far too few warp points for its own good. Also, throwing up a fuck ton of electric barriers everywhere, as well as "somehow non-climbable walls" in random ass places is really off-putting, given how most of the rest of the map works with the aesthetic (almost everything being jumpable and climbable in the way it is structured makes sense, but at least one deal-breaker that was super stupid was off-putting as hell: the staircase in one building somehow not being able to be stepped on. Fucking what.)
I see no purpose for enemies to drop life and energy when there are a fuckton of life and energy spheres everywhere, even in a number of boss fights.
Basic Kunai shots should have been available far earlier.
What's the point of a launcher attack if it doesn't launch anything?
Pause-screen Map should have been better detailed, as it is far too sparse.
Music is kinda shoddy at times, but somewhat fitting at others.
There was no need to have intercom spam. At all. Once to set the mood is fine. 50 fucking times non-stop is not.
Other than that, it's alright.
>>334563729
Because as we all know, one person not likibg a game automatically means it's a meme game and only had 'waifu shitters' as fans.
>>334573568
Oh and, I got it off of PS+, so at least I don't feel totally ripped off. Not like I do for other dogshit at least, such as Road Not Taken aka childbouncing simulator and the worst fucking game I've ever played in my entire life (yes, I would even call it worse than Action 52, I hate it that fucking much).
>>334573659
This is the same place that thinks DOAX3 and senran kagura are actually good games. This place eats up shovelware as long as it looks like anime or caters to MUH DICK
>>334573568
Music didn't live up to my expectations. I agree with your "ok." It's certainly not bad, but it's not great, and it didn't capture the feeling of the original series. I liked the Playstation remake far better.
>>334573871
Really, because I only see people on this site going "people only like this game for (insert accusion here)". And we all have differant opinions, just because you may not enjoy something does'nt mean other people can't.
>>334573880
>Music didn't live up to my expectations.
Oh, same, but like I said, some songs kind of fit the environment, like Kazakh City's theme playing on the whole cyberpunk USSR propaganda neo-russia aspect. Overall though, it was pretty lacking.
>and it didn't capture the feeling of the original series.
Yeah. I think they tried to combine aspects of the arcade and NES games, as well as Udon's over-exaggerated bullshit lore and ended up with something rather alien in the process. Honestly, if it wasn't called Strider, I probably would have liked it a tiny bit more.
>I liked the Playstation remake far better.
You mean Strider 2?
>>334573871
Those aren't all the same people who like shantae though. Also, Shantae wasn't even that sexualized until they brought in that jap porn artist to do the art.Although my dick liked it, I prefer Matt Bozon's art.
Oh also, it seems that Strider 2014 took stuff from
http://strider.wikia.com/wiki/Strider_Hiryu_%28Manga%29
as well.
Well, great, just make it even more of a hodge-podge why don't you? Fuck, who cares if any of this shit even fits together or not.
>>334573568
>Also, throwing up a fuck ton of electric barriers everywhere, as well as "somehow non-climbable walls"
Very few..
Don't be too picky, it's a very decent 8.5 game

And they are found mostly in one section only of the whole game

>>334577145

>>334577362
That's because he's just classic sonic with more shading.
His Arle is fucking awful though.
>>334577416
That, I can agree with. Basically looks like a Pokemon NPC. His human characters have been rather flowchart.
>>334576625
Nope, that's famous artist for the pokemon series you're disrespecting.
>>334577517
That and those retarded buckteeth he's been doing.
Either do teeth right or don't do them at all.
>>334577517
That's because most of the time he doesn't draw the NPCs, other people imitating his style do.
He's a supervisor.

He's shitposted himself to the point of split personalities.
>>334579572
He's shitting on La-mulana, which is like shitting on Deus Ex or shitting on Super Mario Galaxy. It's low-hanging fruit and everyone falls for it because it's so wrong everyone is filled with so much rage that nobody can use their brains to realize it's a troll.

He posted a picture of the remake.
That's not 16-bit.
It's way too smooth and too many colors.
>>334579572
Troll why? Just because I don't like Shovelware Knight and don't worship La-Shitana?

Oh lord, I'm laughing.
>>334579703
It was the shitposter who called it 16-bit in the first place.
>>334579637
I think everyone realizes he's a troll. Its just no one seems to care.
>>334579719
I couldn't give a rats ass about your opinion on "Shovelware Knight" you take back everything you said about LM you motherfucker
>>334579762
Have fun searching jap google and GR3's dead site.
>>334579762
I don't remember the interview and I can't find it because i read in 2011 so fuck off more people say that it's "16-bit ish"
>>334579812
>said about LM you motherfucker
Hipsters are very nervous people
If someone don't worship a 7.0-7.5 retro indie shit they go nuts
>>334579719

Post one valid criticism of La-mulana that I can't refute.
Go on, do it. I don't care if you're a 0/10 troll that's making me mad anyway you can get fucked.

The game was later remade for the ground up in a 16-bit style for the Nintendo Wii, and later PC, Mac, Linux and PlayStation Vita.
http://www.nintendolife.com/reviews/wiiware/la_mulana
It's clearly trying to emulate the 16-bit era
>>334579998
ANON. GET OUT BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE.
wait what there's a sonic 4?
>>334580010
>Still not a source from the developer.
>Posts the Wiiware version
You do know that they had to compress the graphics really hard in order for the wii version to actually run, so it made the game look shitty and "16-bit," right..?
It's not actually supposed to be 16-bit, that's just the wii being a shit console.
>>334579993
Having to re-enter rooms, stupid puzzles that distract you from the story, etc.
>>334580039
Yeah, it sucks.
>>334580071
bla bla bla I'm not getting in technical details just because you want this game to look like a PS1 game
>I-IT'S THE WII FAULT!
>>334580114
>etc
Continue.
>>334580010
I don't know if you're the troll or not but the developer of La-mulana has countlessly stated that his intention was to make an innovative 2D game with the creation of NIGORO. It was meant to not look old.
>>334580114
You have to re-enter levels in Super Mario World to 100% the game. Where's your god now? It's not necessarily a bad thing, especially when the rooms are ever so changing and quick to traverse.The story to La-mulana is barebones, it's mostly lore-based and the puzzles add to the lore rather than detract. Also Super Mario Bros doesn't have that much of a story. Also, the puzzles compliment the pacing.
>>334580207
But it was the Wii's fault, that's why La-mulana on PC looks infinitely better than on the Wii.
>>334580212
>You have to re-enter levels in Super Mario World to 100% the game
You don't have to, but if you want to, it's fun to revisit the stages and find alternative paths, unlike La-Shitana
Ok let's stop talking about La-Shitana, you guys are a pain in the ass
Let's talk about good games other than Shovelware Knight and Shit Fez
Let's talk about Rocket Knight and Rocket Knight Adventures 2
>>334580326
For every time you keep saying "La-Shitana" my blood boils as that's simply not something nobody should ever say.
So fuck you, we're gonna keep talking about it until bump limit or until you go to bed and stop shitposting.
>>334580268
It's extremely fun to revisit stages and find alternate paths in La-mulana, because rooms change and puzzles are fun to solve. It has a god-tier atmosphere, and is ultimately more fun to traverse than replaying an entire level in Super Mario World.Also, how you can compare Super Mario World's shitty 16-bit graphics to the greatness of La-mulana's handdrawn art is beyond me.
>>334580442
Anon, please, just stop responding.
Close the tab, go play some vidya. Do anything else but this.
>>334580442
Now that you said Super Mario World is bad I won't stop saying La-Shitana

You have to if you want to access certain stages.

These aren't traditional platformers either.
>>334581026
Strider 1989 is a traditional platformer
I must consider the 2014 release too because it's basic the same hack n slash

yes they are and they are mediocre games just like Rayman Origins and Legends
>>334567464
The jumps don't need to be perfect at all. You can finish the entirety of the main game in tropical freeze without using the roll-jump even once.
>>334581184
Whoever designed the 8-bit last stage of Raymand Legends must go fuck himself
>>334581093
You just said in your fucking post that it's a hack and slash. It is not a traditional platformer.
the last good sonic game was and will be Sonic Generations
The 2D platforming sections in Generations surpassed Sonic 4
Sonic is dead, face it you hedgehog cock wobbling faggot, there's no way Sonic 4 is better than Rayman Origins, there is no reason Rayman Origins shouldn't be on that list you echidna testie gobbler
>>334581454
Hack N slash I meant for the what you do in the game you stupid worthless trash
Instead of jumping on others like mario you press attack fast
That's what I meant you dumb roach
Ok boys, you ready for the REAL list?
In no particular order:
Rayman legends
Tropical Freeze
Shovel Knight
Cave Story +
N+
>>334581469
>Rayman Origins shouldn't be on that list you echidna testie gobbler
1) Developed by Sorossoft
2) Some stages you have to run like a retard
3) Some stages you have to focus on aiming 90% of the time
>>334581515
I hope English isn't your first language.

Yes, I know. That's why it's not a traditional platformer dickweed.

Where's the motherfucking Kirkby love?
>>334581692
Your memes would be funnier if you'd referred to shovel knight as shovel ware
>>334581184
Isn't a traditional platformer a platformer in the traditional sense, i.e. like Super Mario Bros.? Shantae and Shovel Knight are not traditional platformers.
>>334581802
indie games are shovelware, i just grouped them all together you see
>>334581813
You are retarded!
Super Mario World, Suoper Mario Bros 3, Shantae, Strider 1989 ARE traditional platformer you dumb cucksucker
>>334581813
How the fuck is shovel knight not a traditional platformer? It's about as traditional as platformers get.
>>334581894
It's traditional but it's a garbage game
The soundtrack is the most schrizophenic and retard soundtrack ever

I don't need to speak english perfectly to offend you
That's the most fun part of it other than your shit taste for games
/v is a fun place
They hate games such as Metal Gear Rising, a solid and good hack n' slash but worship Fez and La-Shitana
>>334582098
Nobody on earth is offended by a spic struggling to type out middle-school tier insults.
>>334582171
This place is tumblr 2 now. MGR has fanservice and is violent, of course the tumblr cucks hate it. Their good pals making shovelware indie games, headquarted in san francisco and with pink shaved heads, are the games they praise and support now.
>>334582235
1) I'm not spic
2) I'm not nigger
3) maybe you can go play Fez and stop posting your shit taste here

You've got some kind of persecution complex if you even vaguely believe what you just wrote. Revengeance is beloved more by people on this board than it is absolutely anywhere else on the Internet.

>>334582305
Really? when it was released there was more thread anti-Revengeance than pro DK3 this week
>>334582406
I blame the mods for making this such a cuck and SJW place
Every thread about ALison Rapp or pro-GG is deleted while threads about social problems and depression in video games are not
>>334581891
They're completely different games, though. Shantade and Strider are metroidvanias. I'll admit Shantae is on the edge, but still.
>>334581894
For the same reason Mega Man isn't a traditional platformer. It's an action platformer, focused more on defeating enemies than traversing the environment.
>>334582463
>For the same reason Mega Man isn't a traditional platformer
It's traditional platformer
Just because you shoot enemies doesn't with your arm doesn't mean the game is not traditional
Even threads about censorship in the new Blizzard games are deleted
FUCKING KOSHER MODS!!!!!!!!!
>>334582538
Traditional in what sense? In the "it's an old IP"-sense? Or in the sense of the genre? Because there's a huge difference in how Mega Man plays compared to Super Mario Bros.
Just like how Doom and Portal are, despite the many similarities in mechanics, completely different genres due to a fundamental difference in focus.
>>334582414
>when it was released
You must not have been here because it was universally favorable and every thread had people quoting the lyrics and making OC.
Only after it had been out for a little while did contrarians start showing up because it had gotten popular. (Note: this happens to every game on /v/)
Those were the people who were upset about it and wanted it removed from MGS canon because they hate fun.
This might be the most successful bait thread I've ever seen.
OP has clearly gotten it down to an art, replicating the autistic love for dividing things up into groups as much as possible, filing away everything in its special place.
He's also very effectively "shit" on games without falling into the usual "lying about a game to say it's bad" bit, instead focusing on things that are entirely subjective like music without ever giving any actual reasons for his claims beyond that.
And Sonic 4 as the fucking catalyst? My God, it's like a perfect storm of shitposting, baiting, and autism. This might be a genuine 10/10 bait thread.
>>334582664
In the sense of the genre
You just go through stages, defeat enemies, defeat boss or just go to the next level
>>334582758
Not bait my friend
The only game that could be replaced is Sonic 4
The others are the best platformers from the past 10 years
>>334582851
Please. Please. You've done enough, Anon. You don't have to explain anything to me. I understand.
God bless you and your work.
>>334582794
Mega Man pits you against a boss at the end of every stage, and they all need to be defeated before you can progress to the final stage. The game makes it very clear that the goal is to defeat the bosses, rather than just getting to the end of the level. SMB, on the other hand, gives you a flag to grab at the end of every stage, and you're free to avoid fighting altogether to get there. One game is about fighting, one is about moving. Or you might as well say that Metroid is in the same genre as well.
>>334583043
Metroid is kinda its own genre but you can describe as a Platformer just like any 2D Castlevania is a platformer as well
Just like Strider is also a platformer
I guess you can say that Trine 1 & 2 are platformes as well
That would be in my top 10
>>334583427
We have different genres for a reason. [Traditional] platformers, action platformers, adventure platformers (or, more commonly, Metroidvanias), puzzle platformers, etc. Yeah, they all share common ground in their 2D, platform-based environment, but I don't see how that matters. All first-person games are not in the same genre, neither are all third-person games, or all top-down isometric games. It's the mechanics and the focus of the gameplay that matters.
>>334583663
Platformer is the main genre
The action, adventure, etc is a sub-genre of platformer gaming
I prefer to see what's common in gaming instead of saying games in the same main genre are totally different things
Also, pic related why /v sucks
>>334584202
I like correct information. Describing Super Meat Boy, VVVVVV, Terraria, Dustforce and Tropical Freeze as just "it's a platformer" is grossly incorrect. Worse; it can give me the wrong impression and cause me to go into a game with the wrong idea and end up disappointed - even with a good game.
>>334585118
>I like correct information.
You spend too much time reading wikipedia
You are retarded to the point to say that because Megaman have boss it's not a traditional platformer
>>334585625
Why would I go to Wikipedia for video game related information? I play games. It doesn't take a mastermind to figure out that "jump, jump, jump" is different from "jump, shoot, switch weapon, shoot, jump".
Also, stop it with the strawman. I said that Mega Man is an action platformer because it *focuses* on combat. You get new weapons, enemies have strengths and weaknesses that correlated with those weapons, you fight bosses to progress. In SMB you move to the end of the level.
>>334586670
>Also, stop it with the strawman. I said that Mega Man is an action platformer because it *focuses* on combat. You get new weapons, enemies have strengths and weaknesses that correlated with those weapons, you fight bosses to progress. In SMB you move to the end of the level.
But the difference is not enough to change their main genres
Both are platformers to me
>>334581018
Sonic 3 & Knuckles. Fucking duh? Is that even a real question?
The best part of Sonic 4 was Episode Metal
This is fact
