Nice filter LOL

another kid playing shitfield 1 when shadow tower and ancient city exist.

>>10321009
Why not play all of them?

I love this japanese salary-men series

Always found it silly how manny men had to live in a tomb in KF1 to guard it.

>>10321009
Ancient city was the first kf I tried and it didn't click for me like this one. Will definitely try again after i get through kf2/3. wrt Shadow Tower do you mean the ps1 game or abyss?

>>10321009
>hating any of the kf and kf-like games
not a real fan. bet you got filtered by eternal ring.

>>10321009
The first one is tight as shit you dolt

I don't get this meme

Majuular made a video about King Quest games recently and it's super cringy video. What the hell he was thinking while writing that shit.

I thought it was a pretty good video Dave, what did you find cringey about it? I'm not OP, but I downloaded king's field because the video made it sound cool. I stopped playing it because it was hard to do the camera on my miyoo mini though

>>10322502
well he was way too emotional about every little thing, I don't remember if he even mentioned Ultima underworld properly

>>10322524
Ah that's fair. He did get weirdly weepy and histrionic about it all. But he did talk about UU, though maybe not as much as he should have depending on if Fromsoft devs actually played it.

>>10320898
The gameplay is atrocious. From Software was never good. They were veeery lucky with DeS and DaS

>>10320898
Nice, I just played it for the first time a few weeks ago. I found the entire game to be entrancing and haunting, truly an unforgettable experience.

Cute fairy.

Yeah it plays like shit but it's kind of forgivable considering when KF1 came out. The dungeon crawling experience is good and that's good enough.
For later releases it starts to look increasingly silly. KF4 is entirely silly, PS2 games shouldn't play this poorly. They should play more like Shadow Tower Abyss, now that's good gameplay, unfortunately the dungeon crawling isn't as good in that game, you can't have it all

>>10323001
>it is bad but is good and should be more like this other game that is good but is bad instead

>>10323079
Dungeon crawling is just one of the aspects of those games. By "dungeon crawling" I mean map exploration, I assumed that's obvious. Map exploration is good in KF1 but bad in STA. Combat on the other hand is good in STA but bad in KF.

Honestly, it might be a topic beaten to death and dust, but.
Why are western designers like this?
Why aren't the EYES treated with more deference?
I don't think I'm looking at a human being unless I can see pronounced eyes.
I hate when designers do the exact opposite.

From "the western hemisphere" Software

>KF4 is entirely silly
As someone who's yet to get far in any Shadow Tower or older KF tittles but completed KF4, with a pretty shifty PAL English translation at that, I take offence to that. Playing as a slow-moving tractor masquerading as a prince who bravely takes on the forces of corrupting evil was beyond cool. 10/10 experience.

"There are no bosses in 3 and this is a good thing as they would only get in the way of the ambience"
I like FS but idk how someone can suck a studio's dick that hard.
