This game isn't just overrated, it's straight up bad.

i've actually become more of a fan of the genesis over the snes because i don't like jrpgs anymore. the genesis has great action games but vectorman isn't one of them.

It was a mediocre game trying to cash in on both Super Metroid and DKC's successes.

Incidentally, almost all of BlueSky Software's games were trash.

Thank christ. I thought I was going crazy seeing Vectorman as a highly rec'd game. Like, Vectorman 2 is at least playable if it's bad, but the first game is just straight up not good.

Chrono Trigger. Loved it as a kid, replayed it as an adult and realized how incredibly shallow it is. At least the music's nice.

>> No.5355885

Compared to what JRPG? Other JRPGs in the genre from that era are even more shallow or just plain suck (FF4, FF6, Secret of the Stars)

CT is still a cut above even today for people that first played it on the NDS

This. All console graphics in the 8, 16 and 32 bit days are made with this in mind. Even "ultra sharp" RGB monitors from back in the day are somewhat mercifull in that regard.

Most of them are not but isn't it the case with most consoles? 10% of theirs libraries are worth shit and I'm being generous.
Anyway, I'm gonna talk about arcade ports. When I was young I wanted them to be as close to the arcades as possible no matter how choppy it meant the gameplay would be. Nowadays I'd rather play versions instead of straight ports due to the fact I can emulate arcade originals themselves. An example is Sunset Riders. Why would I play the SNES version nowadays instead of the arcade? The genesis version at least is different so there's that but back in the day that would be disappointing.
