Where did it go wrong?
1. Retarded AI companions got in the way and ruined pacing.
2. Steep learning curve.
3. Spent so long in development that it looked hideously outdated by the time it was released.
4. Hubris. By the time it was finally nearing release, everyone knew this game was going to stink but they still had the nerve to act like John Romero's Doom/Quake street cred was enough to sell the game.
>le dikatana was bad me-may XDDDDDD
Fuck off, anyone who's actually played the game knows it's a masterpiece on the same level as Doom and Quake.

Lots of pluses and negatives.
It's a good game but it's tied with 1 for me behind 2 and 3
That's not Mega ManIV

Rondo
SNES version is better. Rondo is too easy and gets ruined by waifufaggotry.
>>2831717
Agree but Dracula X is still a quite decent game.
Why better controls on DX tho?, they were pretty similar iirc
>>2831717

Only the first level of X looks better than Rondo. The rest is very dry.

Rondo is much better.

X is much more anal.
ITT: Games only you have played
Good job Anon you sure are the only person to play a Gundam game. Way to go finding such an obscure hidden gem.
>>2827121
lol, NES, what a casual.
FM-7 gundam is way better!
I never hear anybody talk about this game. It was possibly the closest thing the NES got to Elder Scrolls.
- First-person view
- Real-time action
- Craft spells from runes instead of memorizing predefined spells
Just be sure to look up a copy of the manual before you play. Basic actions such as equipping items or crafting spells isn't very intuitive.

apparently magicaVoxel now supports making voxels with transparency, i wonder if that works correctly in zdoom

2.) Hacking help
3.) ROM hack recommendations

that's not nice
It's pretty widely known by now that the reason the game Sonic X-treme never came out was due to Yuji Naka getting wind of the US dev team behind it using the Nights into dreams engine without his consent. That derailed development of the game and eventually it was cancelled. In hindsight, should Sega should've just told Yuji Naka to screw off and accepted his resignation and just let the US team continue on Sonic X-treme? Was Naka even in the right to demand that sort of pull over the engine, or was it Sega's to use as they pleased? Obviously Naka was a valuable employee(perceivably more so than a bunch of american programmers) but his output for Sega beyond Phantasy star Online doesn't seem particularly important, and he probably wasted time and money on a bunch of non-starter franchises that ended up very niche.
I'm sure I enjoyed PSO more than I would have enjoyed Sonic X-Treme
>Naka leaves
>Oshima takes over Sonic Team
>decides to keep the upcoming next gen Sonic game true to the originals as opposed to setting it in a semi-realistic world with RPG/adventure elements (both Naka's idea)
>Sonic's jump into 3D is as successful as Mario's
I'd miss PSO and Burning Rangers though. Those games were awesome.
>>2840201
There was a lot more shit that happened that lead to X-Treme's cancellation than just Naka refusing STI the NiGHTS engine. That said, X-treme didn't look that great anyways.
Honestly looking back this entire scene is pretty offensive.
How exactly? I found it hilarious.
It isn't. Go back to Kotaku.
Not surprising in the least if you look at history of FF character design. Most of them tend to be androgynous. Sexual ambiguity is the core of FF.
I used to have a shit ton of video game ads saved from the 70's 80's and 90's but I lost my folder. Can you help me rebuild, /vr/?

That piercing beep and the sound of the disk drive grinding away warms my heart. Not even joking.
>>2835447
I think OP is referring to the sound it makes when the DC boots and the VMU batteries are either missing or expired.
The OP is too low effort to end up being a worthwhile thread though. Shame.
Anyone else think this beats out SMB 3?
>>2831405
Most of /vr/ would agree, yes.
