So, what does /vr/ think about the Puyo Puyo series?

>> No.564869 [DELETED] 

that it belongs in a puzzle game general and it doesnt deserve its own thread.

okay then

I THINK /VR/ IS GAY AND SUCKS AND THE JANITOR IS A BITCH WHO THINKS THE GAMING COMMUNITY HAS TO BE ALL TOUCHY FEELY AND ACCEPTY. Everyone who flames gets banned thats why this place is such a stinking shithole and why you cant discuss anything other than nintendo or square.
Mods should only be here to remove illegal material. Everyone who likes this game porbably got banned for flaming all the nintendo fanboys on here. Sorry OP its the sad truth of this place. Calling a game crap and calling each other fucking niggers is going to kill a board contrary to what those doom sayer pussies would like to tell you.

Love it. And I fucking hate how Sega stole the series and proceeded to rape it with a new design.

I also wish the Madou Monogatari RPGs were translated.. though on second thought, almost all of them are dungeon crawlers and I hate those, so...
The SNES one is a traditional RPG and it is already translated, though. The Saturn one is the one that really needs a translation. Shit, if someone is willing to translate it, I'll go and dump the script (which still needs recompression to be inserted to the game, so it would only work with runtime patches until someone cracks the compression the game uses)

It's too bad both Compile (Heart) and Sega aren't willing to come to terms with eachother...

...instead, Compile Heart decided to make Sei Madou Monogatari with Original the Characters based off of the Madou cast.
>Dark Wizard mistaken for Pervert
>Prince of Hell who is in love with the main heroine
>Fighting girl in love with Not-Satan
>Mascot Character who only speaks by saying "Kuu"

Subtle.

Buying 20th anniversary was the biggest mistake I ever made
Mainly because I can't stop playing it

>> No.565279

I've played way, way too much Puyo Puyo for my own good and am now a god at it.

The only one in the series I particularly hate is Fever. It's a bullshit mechanic.

I still can't manage to be good enough to play with everyone else, or suck enough to not plow through my friends.
Most of my intentional chains clock in at around 6 or 7, which is PATHETIC compared to other players, yet it's considered godlike by my friends...

I have to keep practicing if I wanna stand a chance and have fun.

>> No.565383

>>565069
Haha yes, I've seen that.
It's actually a pretty damn good idea by the way... they can continue the series as it was, without being forced to do a new cast. And if they ever manage to get the characters back from Sega (who isn't using them besides crappy cameos anyway!), they can just edit the gfx and names and voila it has the full original characters.

I just wish they made a real JRPG instead of the dungeon crawlers. At least Sei MM will be an overhead one like Waku waku Puyo Puyo Dungeon, which was actually pretty fucking nice, even if the last dungeon was fucked up (you had to grind 100 levels or something without saves). Once you look up the item effects on a dictionary and figure out when you need to use food items, it's pretty playable even in Japanese.

Someone make a functional CNX compressor, and I'll see if I can make at least a basic translation for GUI and items and such.

>>565306
That's why there's handicap in the games. In the older ones, anyway. Don't know about Fever & later ones, because they suck shit.

>> No.565397

I don't know how anyone can set up a chain of more than 6 or 7 without getting needled to death by quick 2s and 3s (which is how you beat Dr. Robotnik on Hardest- just keep hitting him). More than 6 is just plain overkill anyway.

Use the small amounts of Nuisance Puyo to your advantage. They can serve as stepping stones to create even bigger chains

what about this?

>> No.565436

>>565414

They can, but you need to be faster than your opponent. If he's just throwing down one or two layers at a time (or not even layers, sometimes a single nuisance in the right place will do it) and you're trying to use those to build bigger chains, you're probably going to run out of real estate while he's sitting on an empty board.

>> No.565621

>>565436
You have a point there. It really depends on both players' strategies.

>> No.566026

Puyo pop for the GBA is probably my favorite in the series.
