Retro Games you wish they'd Revive

Pic related. I loved 1 and 3. I never had the chance to play 2, gonna fix that once I'm done replaying 1.

You should play 4. It's the good one.

[Anonymous No.4629772]

>>4629770
I remember getting decently far in 4, but never finishing it. I couldn't tell you why.

[Anonymous No.4629782]

>>4629772

Maybe it was because of soul crushing depressions. Because holy fuck did that game not pull any punches to the heart groin.

Most of the BoF games were somber pick up the pieces kind of games.

Yeah but goddamn did 4 twist the knife.

Was DQ any good? I know 6 was a godawful mobile game so I didn't touch it.

[Anonymous No.4629848]

>>4629843

DQ is polarizing. There are people, like me, who see it as a brilliantly unique title and one of hte best games the PS2 has to offer with nothing else like it and then there's people who are wrong.

I unironically liked 2 the most. Favorite Nina, Shaman system is fucking cool, and I'm not a furfag but Katt/Rinpoo a cute.

>Breath of Fire game where using your dragon powers makes the game unwinnable
>Story makes no sense because you can't see the cutscenes unless you die and restart your entire save file from the beginning

Nope it's just trash

Oh I forgot the best part, dashing makes the game unwinnable too. That's right, you can't even run without filling up your permanent game over meter. Shit game, absolutely inexcusable.

>>4629854

see this is the typical criticism of the game. A bunch of baby whining about not being able to spam the instant win move to death and being to dim to understand a very straight forward plot.

The running one is a new though. It's equally stupid though. Because the DASH in question is a super sonic burst of speed meant to plow through enemies and using it should have a negative consequence so you don't just blitz through all of them instead of, you know, actually taking stock of your environment and thinking a little.

[Anonymous No.4629863]

>>4629861

And this is the typical defense of the game, insisting everyone else is too dumb to understand the magnificent genius of its annoying and retarded mechanics. You're not a misunderstood genius, you just have shitty contrarian taste in RPGs.

Why put a mechanic in a game if the only reason is to punish you for using it?

[Anonymous No.4629869]

>>4629865

No you just don't UNDERSTAND anon, it's too SMART for you. Only SUPERIOR MINDS can appreciate the SUBTLETY of deleting your progress because you pushed a button too many times.

[Anonymous No.4629871]

>>4629863

A mechanic isn't bad just because it demands the player actually learn how to play the game and not just cheese all the enemies to death.

>>4629865

Because if you use it in moderation and strategically you're not punished for using it.

>>4629869

You mean shit that doesn't happen? Ever.

Banality: The Video Game Series.

[Anonymous No.4629905]

>>4629843
It's the best game in the series.

[Anonymous No.4629907]

I always considered it "Band of Furries: A Gateway Drug"

[Anonymous No.4629980]

i'm replaying breath of fire 2 right now (the best in the series and a far better game than FF6, there i said it). you can play with the original translation, it's not as godawful as people say

BoF2 is worse than visual novels.

Risk vs. Reward. Do you utilize the mechanic at the cost of being closer to game over, or can you think of a way out of the situation without it? The game is made with the idea of you fucking up and getting smarter each time and/or replaying it. The mechanics are based around this thought process. Some people really like this and think it's neat. Others think it sucks.

[Anonymous No.4630013]

I thought BoF2 was boring as fuck. I was pretty far in, but I just stopped caring at some point and never went back to it.

Yea, the dragon quest series is pretty good, 6 isn't as bad as people say, it's almost as good as 5. but 8 is the best one.

Which one of these games was the one with the super hot nina?

[Anonymous No.4630094]

I think he's talking about Breath of Fire: Dragon Quarter m8.

>>4629848
I used to think it wasn't all that great, but after reading the interview with the devs and then playing it again, I have a newfound appreciation for it. It's definitely different from the first 4 games but I don't think it's bad in anyway now. It's actually kinda grown on me and I 'd probably put it into my top 20 favorite games.

Here's the interview BTW:
