>> No.5347372

It's not awful. Too much Śoytendo and not enough Japan-only games, which I guess is to be expected when there's so many seppos around.

Also you should be ashamed to call oot the best game ever.

If you don't like Fallout at the very least you are not in position to make a "best games" chart.

Especially when you add shit like Panzer Dragoon Saga in the top three, one of the worst games I've ever played.

If you actually enjoying flying around doing absolutely nothing with some of the worst combat ever made and poorly written anime stories I'm sure you will find PDS fun.

Truth is the game gets its praise because most people don't emulate it and keep parroting the opinion of the few who actually played the game back then or are willing to fork out cash for such an overrated pos.

Fallout's combat is that of a proper RPG, though. That's more than I can say about PDS's, which is bad, boring, and takes too long to boot. The game being so short is merciful to its players.

Nothing special about this list... it's exactly what you'd expect. The users on /b/ probably have moderate exposure to games (from 90's to now), and being on 4chan you'd expect weeb stuff to be somewhat overrepresented, which it is.

How so? The lists all look the fucking same to me with the most boring safe picks which aren't indicative of any kind of real specific tastes. I figure most people voting this shit in don't even play the games much and are parroting the popular consensus and journos. It's like "oh yeah LTTP now THAT was a game" and then they go back to playing CSGO for another thousand hours without even glancing at any Zelda.

I tried to enjoy it but cutscenes aside (which were a major annoyance) the gameplay itself wasn't really my thing.

It was flying around in straight lines blasting stuff for no real gain (imagine walking through a linear world map in a typical FF JRPG and having many chests lined up for you to open; that's PDS in a nutshell) and going into random battles. Not particularly fun ones, but this happens because random battles have never been good except in games where there's something at stake (like losing your entire party in a Wizardry game). Hell, the thing about random battles in Wizardry is that you need to explore the dungeons and the random battles may end up fucking up your party, they are effectively a roadblock that force you to get stronger.

I'll be fair to the game, though:

1. I don't like JRPGs anymore except for a select group.
2. I also have other things in my mind and that may stop me from fully enjoying games. So whereas last year I was fully enjoying Cuphead, this year I managed to beat one enemy in the hardest difficulty but didn't get any enjoyment out of it.
