If you don't have fun with SoC, that's a problem on your end.
the last guardian, coming for playstation 5

>if you don't have fun with action-adventure without combat or exploration that's a problem on your end.
>if you don't have fun with cinematic climb mossy parts, hit glowing spot rodeo "bosses" that's a problem on your end.
Game is shit, kiddo.

SotC was absolutely monotonous and the original PS2 version probably cause numerous cases of eye cancer around the world. Ico was cool though.
Castlevania bloodlines. It has like 22 bosses/subosses and only like 6 levels.
>>2943695
SotC picks up towards the end, the final 3 colossi are the best. The first whatever, 13 suck because your stamina is so fucking low and you can so easily get thrown off. The final 3 are the only ones that really feel like they were well developed and designed encounters.
All the colossi come down to:
>do scripted sequence to get onto it
>climb on it and pray you get lucky and it doesn't shake excessively causing you to run out of stamina before you reach the next rest point
>rest
>Get onto weak point
>Stab it
>if theres another weak point, find it, and if you get thrown off repeat the entire process
Whoop de fucking do.
I respect Ico a shitload more then I respect SotC. I don't even think Ico is that good, but it is an interesting case of utilizing a lot of restraint.
>No hud
>very little ambient sound and music
>very simple visuals
I think as a game Ico is pretty shit honestly, it would've fared better as a short film. Its full of some dumb bullshit like jumps that are way too precise (mainly the water wheel area), scripted climbing, and really monotonous and boring combat. At it's core it's a game long escort mission and that's inherently terrible.
How anyone thinks either SotC or Ico are gods gift to gaming is beyond me. People who think the last guardian is actually going to get released also make me laugh.

Fuck the fuck off...not retro
>>2944663
PS2 is retro, didn't you see the PS2 thread?
>>2944706
Omg if this was a competition to trigger the autist you win. I'm fucking livid.

King of Dragons. HOOOOO!

This and Warzard.
>>2944134
But Bloodlines doesn't have a password system so you can resume of whenever part you stopped?
>>2946714
not retro, son
>>2946718
Yeah, neither is Super Mario Bros. 3, Pac Man, Donkey Kong, Super Metroid, Ocarina of Time, Power Stone, Half Life, or anything else that's obviously retro.
>"muh 1999!"
Invalid. Conflicts with reality. Try a real argument. You know you're wrong. You know the sticky is wrong.
Is SOTC retro? No, probably not. But the console it's on absolutely is. That's why we need a rolling year limit instead of hardware.
Way to derail a discussion though. Why do you people hate /vr/ so much?
Street Fighter
>>2946780
not retro, son
>>2944517
It's the only arcade game I can 1cc, both games are neat. And until this moment I've forgotten about the NGPC version, I had lots of fun with that when I first discovered this handheld emulation.
>>2940509
>>2941585
But there are tons of Treasure games that aren't like that. Probably not even half their library.
>>2940506
Pretty much any fighting game could be looked at as a boss rush.
>>2946790
What are you on? It's a game from the 80s, of course it is retro.
>>2946736
>the rules are invalid because im a big crybaby
>>2940506
Does Donkey Kong count as a boss?
Puyo Puyo too
>>2946807He's posting it at every thread, ignore.
>>2946736
Dude, I'm all for inclusion of PS2 gen but this is going about it completely the wrong way. Stop acting like a retard if you ever want it to happen.
>>2943272
Sounds like you played a good bit of a "shit" game
>>2946840
What's the right way?
>>2946858
post your shitty games on /v/ or leddit, where you can talk with your fellow underages about how epic 6th gen is
>>2940506
Star Fox has 1 boss per stage
