So, I'm finding myself unsure of where to jump back into DC. Their [parasitic bomb] is too convoluted at times.NONONONONONONONONO.
I'm figuring read Blackest Night then get into Brightest Day. For Batman, maybe start at.. Battle for the Cowl or just jump into the new Batman & Robin? Also, what about Gotham City Sirens?
You could always ask for a sticky.A sticky with just a few posts and generally updated by me and my imaginary friend Steve alone wouldn't work well. =P
Nothing like that, I just ended up finding it funny(mainly because I didn't expect to read that in a description of a Medievel setting for RPGs in general). Sorry if that was offending, I didn't mean it like that.None taken. It's just that people sometimes use "blood and guts" in any kind of game to classify it as juvenile and brainless. While stellar games like Diablo and Dragon Age have TONS of gore, yet it's portrayed simply because you ARE hacking and slashing things into bits. Looks good stylishly, and it's not put there just to get the same reaction Mortal Kombat had all that time ago.
Yeah. Pretty much.The entire difficulty of that game stemmed from the control scheme and that damn Sea King temple.
Heck. Phantom Hourglass was one of the easiest Zelda games ever and it's harder than TP.
Perhaps, but then its status as First-Person Adventure would be even more dubious than it already is.Ease of control trumps "status recognition" easily. The original Metroids didn't have any lock-on capabilities to begin with. The adventuring is what makes it adventure, not the controls. Precise aiming and moving with the lightning-quick speed existant in the 2D games would not only be possible then, it would be perfected. And then, there would be no need for lock-on controls that don't always aim at the enemies you want to. Heck, the lock-on was the one thing that didn't click with the original games.
Closest thing to a true FPS Metroid would be Prime Hunters on the DS. Of course, the DS has no analogue, but the premise of touch-aiming is similar at least, and there is no lock.
Go play the Wii version then. You'll be happy to know Samus can strafe just fine in that one.Which is far better, I agree, but it sacrifices the turning speed and movement finesse that an analog could offer.
I guess people do really know me pissing them off is my way to show affection. =P
Not that he usually is, now...Since all of his latest roles (and yes, even Kingdom Hearts) have pretty much contributed nothing whatsoever to any kind of more enriching personality or playful character, and this game actually aims to bring him back to his origins and make him TRULY good and unique again, making him silent is pretty much the very best thing they could have done.
Actually it's like 2 weeks later. Why not make it yourself?...because honestly, it would most probably fall into obscurity unless called to proper attention or expanded this topic itself for all short downloadable console games.
...yeah, point taken.
Hahahahahaha 'gushing blood' how cute.Don't follow. Are you refering to gushing blood as being something that only appeals to childish adolescents instead of actually appreciating it as a design choice to fit the function and theme of a game?
In the simplest sense, yes.Western cliché of medieval is very different from the japanese cliché of medieval. Just because they share elements, I've actually never seen two of them with the same "theme". Elder Scrolls, Dragon Age and Baldur's Gate have a kind of Lord of the Rings-kind of setting, while I've pretty much never seen any kind of japanese RPG with down-and-dirty kind of look and style, with regular-looking weapons and big, brown and green worlds with gushing blood.
Though it should be noted I don't care for effeminate male characters all that much to be honest. In fact, I have a general disdain for the "bishie" as it were, especially the over inflation of them.
However, the longer version is necessary here.
Note you said what you said and then I counter with my TRAP CARD. You now get to listen to my lulz and lose 4000 LPs, you also lose the ability to summon level 5 monsters or hig--- ... oh right, the long version.
See... "Typical JRPG setting with effeminate characters and medieval-like setting with magic 'n [parasitic bomb]" is a cute comment because not just JRPGs do medieval-like settings with magic 'n [parasitic bomb]. INFACT, a perfect example (besides Baulder's Gate, DnD and other things I happen to like AND own) is Elder Scrolls. For the sake of modernism, I'll pick Oblivion, my personal favorite. Oblivion has... well, last I checked (approximately 55 minutes prior to this post, in fact.) is a very medieval-esque world with magic 'n [parasitic bomb]. But hey, let us get more descriptive.
I love the story of the Elder Scrolls universe. [parasitic bomb] like Daedric Lords and crazy ass lore that is both fantastic and mind boggling in it's own right. Such things are of my intrigue. So no... it isn't just the "typical JRPG setting" that I like. Yes, I DO like that, but that doesn't eliminate all other options. Elder Scrolls, Baulder's Gate, DnD and Warhammer are examples of things that intrigue me in the highest caliber.
But hey, for those of the tl;dr persuasion, we have this:
Sorry if this has been asked already, but is there any kind of topic like this for XBLA or PSN games? I got a huge library on XBLA myself, but only about 5 Wiiware/VC titles.Bumping this request a week later.
I got into 'vania through Aria of Sorrow. Which like Non Belmont games, are usually easier because aside from leveling up, you can actually change weapons to suit your tastes, and equip stronger ones as you go along.Another good entry title.
