SOTN, flawed though it may be. It's still extremely impressive, hasn't aged a day and it never will.

>> No.6000593

You can tell someone's underage when they still talk about one single thing in a huge, diverse field of things being "my favorite" or "the best" of those things.
There are far too many different types of games for any single fucking game to be "the best" or "your favorite", kids. Stop this bullshit. If you want to do that, narrow the goddamn choices down. Favorite Zelda? Favorite 8bit CRPG series? Sure. "Favorite videogame"? Lol, no.

I agree that people should stop calling games the "best", but I believe people can absolutely have favorites.
I'm too indecisive for that, though.

>> No.6000615

FF6 pretty much pushed the SNES as far as any game has ever pushed it's respective console. Only others that really come close are probably Ocarina, Metroid Prime & MGS2

>> No.6000759

Super Metroid.

>> No.6000917

The easiest way to tell if a game is your favorite is if you keep coming back to it years after its release. By that rubric, FF VI and FFT would be my favorites.

It would be a tie between SM64 and DOOM(2). Both are still fun today and have a large amount of fan created content that keep me revisting them.

That shit was ok, not the best game of all time. Far from it.
The best game of all time if you're looking at 5th generation would be something more like OoT or Thief.

Play it on Luck Mode and avoid grinding for OP shit like Crissaegrim or Mourneblade. Alucard starts weak as shit and it makes every single enemy you meet for the first hour a deadly risk, and the margin for error stays pretty tight for 75% of the game.
