The original NES Metroid.

I respect it for being the originator of an amazing series. But I feel like it's aged terribly. It gets praised for the value of the exploration, but to me, the value of exploration is less about finding items and secrets and more about taking in the scenery. And when the scenery is literally cut & pasted half the time, exploration doesn't feel very rewarding to me. No matter how many powerups I get for it.

I was never a huge zelda fan but I remember playing link to the past. The problem with zelda games is they were too confusing. Too open world, maybe cause I was younger or maybe cause it was ahead of its time, but that's what the problem with zelda games was (is). Pokemon was open world but for some reason it made sense. Zelda you had to really be a nerd to understand the game enough to enjoy otherwise you were just wondering around without any real objective...

>> No.590002

>>589991
Pokemon felt, to me, like it had a progression. You went from one area to the next, unlocking paths, gaining levels, and getting new Pokemon. Zelda just sort of throws you into a wide world and gives you some general directions and you are expected to know where the hell to go. Metroid was really guilty about this too, I think.

I wouldn't say everyone liked it, but I'd heard so much gushing over the story in Final Fantasy Legend that when I finally played it...

There barely even was a story until near the end, and it left me underwhelmed. Which probably wouldn't have bothered me much if I'd enjoyed the game overall, but it was incredibly unpolished compared to its later sequels. Just a disappointing experience.

What I'll never get is how did this game warrant the use of the SA-1, a coprocessor that boosted the SNES clock speed that allowed to have, so to speak, "blast processing". RPGs by nature are not CPU intensive in the slightest, so why did this need it? Does it become Thunder Force IV on steroids all of a sudden?

The NES Metroid is still very playable today, it just requires very thoughtful movement, something the later Metroids lack.

That's the point though. The game is supposed to be disorienting and confusing. You're supposed to get lost.

But if you don't like it, that's cool. People can like and dislike whatever they want.

Sonic. The entire series. Though I liked a few entries my biggest gripe is with the entire concept of gameplay and it's poor execution. Sonic is meant to be a fast paced game.

Hated as in a past tense would be Mario 64 and Zelda OoT. I didn't like the transition from 2D to 3D and vehemently opposed it. I was glad when Oracle of Seasons/Ages came out and Zelda returned to its traditional roots.
