I guess it has to be from a slightly younger subset of millenials. I remember on /v/ in 2007 nobody had any real affection for the Crash and Spyro games, but there was appreciation for Mario 64 and OoT.

My theory is that those games made a bigger impact on people who were not necessarily very young, while in the meantime the hoards of 90s children that grew up with the original Playstation, particularly the around 93 crowd are on here now and they outvote the N64 games for popularity with their sheer numbers.

Now that up to 98 is allowed on here, you also start to see people putting Ratchet and Clank, even the likes of Jak 2 on some kind of innovative pedestal.

Well they are, nobody is in doubt of that.

But it's a little mystifying how a bunch of "80%" platformers from the late 90s are suddenly revered as being the peak of achievement, even though they were strongly criticized as lacking imagination back then.

Well, mystifying until you realize that they were marketed to children and had shiny graphics, and those children have now grown up.

I think they're a bit better than 80%. I prefer Spyro or the Legends series for platformers. Probably because those 2 are more 3d platformers.

But the Crash games are some of the best you can play. Definitely the best "2.5d" out there. Evan though they're really not 2.5d.

Probably, but I was just referring to their critical reception back then, all of it in the 80s range, although the latter two were almost 90.

FF9 has an astounding amount of pandering to it. It reminds of those fucking "[blank] Movie" movies where there aren't any actual jokes, just references to other movies. 9 is a hodge-podge of references to previous FF games, and seems to want to hang its hat on that like every other FF sequel hasn't made references to previous entries.

It's frustrating to see tons of plot elements and characters recycled, sometimes almost completely unchanged, from older entries and is perfectly content to just ride the nostalgia wave. I couldn't stop seeing similarities to FF4's plot structure in a number of places, right down to a nearly carbon-copy reproduction of the final boss switch - and they must enjoy that twist because they did it again with the very next entry, too.

[Anonymous No.3052918]

List of games mentioned in this thread that could reasonably be described as overrated and not just based entirely in adolescent contrarianism (including reasoning for why they're not that good):

>Tomb Raider (clunky controls, cheap deaths via annoying leaps of faith)
>Mortal Kombat (clunky controls, gameplay not nearly as refined as it's main competitors at the time)
>The Breath of Fire games, well at least the first two (terrible translations, obnoxiously high encounter rate)

And that's basically it. All the hipsters posting stuff like Mario 64 or FF7 in a failed attempt to be cool don't seem to realise that they don't have the same kinds of game-hampering flaws that you'd need for them to be truly overrated.

And my edition to the list: Secret of Mana. The combat is incredibly weak and often boils down to just spamming spells. Might as well have just been a turn based RPG instead. And the very worst part by far is babysitting your functionally retarded AI companions. This game has no business showing up in so many Top 10 lists and SNES RPG reccomendations.

[Anonymous No.3052959]

>projecting this hard

I don't even like MGS, /v/ kid. Move your shitty threads to where you came from. "Overrated" is the same kind of retarded expression people use to define a game they don't like but lack intelligence to correct describe what is wrong in the game, probably the major problem is the game selling more than your favorite franchise. You faggots don't even have the decency of pointing why the game is overrated. And fuck, "overrated", "underrated", is there some "correctly rated" game?

>Tomb Raider (clunky controls, cheap deaths via annoying leaps of faith)

Controls are clunky because they're supposed to be accurate, and the "leaps of faith" thing falls entirely on the player's proficiency.

[Anonymous No.3052989]

>>3052979

Ah, of course. It's the player's fault that the controls are shit. Why didn't I think of that? Here I was assuming that Resident Evil controls wouldn't don't work well in a 3D game with platforming elements. Obviously I overlooked the fact that they're SUPPOSED to be terrible. Thanks for clearing this up for me, anon.

[Anonymous No.3053002]

>>3052918
>>3052918
Secret of Mana... Single player, I agree. I loved it as a kid, but I recognize now it was a pretty weak game with a HORRIBLE translation. Also the end game felt very rushed... there's a point where you fly through like four dungeons in a row and they're all super short. And like 90% of the overworld is empty space. Makes you wonder.

However, Secret of Mana, to this day, is STILL a blast to play 3-player co-op. There's a reason this game was so highly regarded for its time, and this is absolutely one of the very biggest reasons. Even if the boss battles boil down to spamming spells, it was still fun romping thru dungeons, fighting over who got to use what weapons, laughing at your friends when he picked up a trap treasure chest, all that shit. Hell, 2-players would've been fun enough, but the fact that there's a 3-player mode was just icing on the cake. I tell you, those times where you had a multi-tap and got two buddies over to marathon Secret of Mana were some of the best times one could have on the SNES.

Also, aesthetically speaking, I still think Secret of Mana is one of the prettiest games on the SNES, with one of the best sound tracks of any game.

So did a lot of reviewers. The series was progressing toward a new style that debuted in FF8. FF9 was kind of like the last 'throwback' game before Square went in an entirely new direction with the series. Hence why you had all the references.

The biggest problem with 9 is the constant pausing for battle animations that makes battles from disk 2 onward take several minutes on end. The 40 second fight intro doesn't help matters any.

[Anonymous No.3053102]

And what's that style called? Literal shit? Because that's where the series was progressing.

IX saved the franchise and brought it back on track. If you say otherwise and choose VII, you're a literal nostalgia faggot. If you choose VIII, you're a literal retard.

Sure X was a bit of a misstep, but we got the GOAT game that was XI and XII wasn't that bad either.

Not him, and there was a ton about VIII I didn't like, but it was very experimental and I liked that. The enemies leveling with you, draw and junction was all really interesting. I wish they'd put that in a game with less annoying characters.

It's not even nostalgia. It's kids on the internet parroting the "lol cloud is emo XD" meme and putting the most barebones and uninspired JRPG of the PS1 era on a pedestal simply because it's a Final Fantasy game with no "emo" characters.

>that pic

Dude fuck off, Squall is a terrible character even by Square standards. He's all mopey and angsty because "muh sis left me" because you know, that's such a life ruining traumatic experience. And then there's the fact that he somehow inexplicably remembers that he had a sister in the first place despite supposedly suffering from amnesia like the other orphans. Not to mention his relationship with Rinoa being one-sided as fuck until late in the game until develops feelings for her completely out of the blue.

I mean sure, all Final Fantasy characters are poorly written, but Squall is the absolute worst of the bunch.

On the other hand, Cloud is okay I guess, at least until the compilation faggotry took a big shit on his character.

I wholeheartedly agree. The platforming is uninteresting, the combat is just there rather than being fun, the bulk of the enemies are lame thus not fun to fight, it just isn't anywhere as awesome as people claim it is.

It is alright and functional, but that is about it. The only thing you really need with Super Metriod is to invest time.

You're absolutely right. Fuck these casuals who want "intuitive" and "fluid" controls. It's the players fault if they don't like the controls. That's why I've come up with my own NES action platformer with challenging and rewarding controls for hardcore gamers such as ourselves. Here's the control scheme so far:

Left makes the character run right, right makes him run left. Up goes down ladders, down goes up ladders. Start attacks, select defends, A shits your pants, B kills yourself and A and B at the same time makes you jump. And if you can't adapt to that, you're a fucking faggot.

Both sites are pretty garbage if you're going to be honest about it. I would had be 100% opposed to stronger regulation on 4chan when it was new. After the scientology raids it opened the gates for cancer. This place could use a purge.

The only reason reddit is better is because you can downvoted the blatant shitposts, even if that does result in user enforced censorship and geoupthink

Not saying 4chan isn't shit but it's not worse than reddit. The door's that way.

It's a different kinda of shit to reddit. Reddit has groupthink, but downvoted shitposts, 4chan has nor discussion but thread likes this which are obvious bait yet people fall for time and time again.

Reddit is chunky shit and 4chan is diarrhoea. The tiny pieces of corn are easy to find and cleaner in chunky hard shit, whereas even if you use a strainer the corn is already contaminated by the watery shit.
