Why old titles are better

Modern games tend to tfall into 2 categories

1. Tightly controlled experience to make sure you can only beat it the intended way and it will be all about giving the one playing it an easy time.
2. open world but boring, you dont actually do much, typically easy, far cry 2 was easy to beat at the hardest difficulty.

With older titles they were more willing to fuck over the player and they didn't put effort into stopping players from finding quicker ways to win.

WIth the first zelsa you could just go anywhere and they didn't try to restrict the player.

With zelda a link to the past they had the early parts of the game restricted but as you progressed you got more freedom to beat the dungeons in any order. With zelda twilight princess you had to beat all temples in a specific order and it was also story focused, it didn't get better until zelda breath of the wild which i havn't played.

Most games will fail to properly challange your brain and thus they are a waste of time. If you want a proper challange professional gambling such as poker is there for you (you can build up a bankroll from zero).

In the first Final Fantasy, different areas had different difficulties of monsters, so you just naturally had to stay out of certain areas if you wanted to survive encounters, till you leveled up enough or obtained the necessary equipment.

Plus, for example, you had to obtain a certain vehicle to go certain places; e.g. there were islands that didn't have seaports, so you needed to get an airship to go there; but the item necessary to get the airship was guarded by a monster that could instantly kill anyone who hadn't leveled up enough to have 300 HP. Similar kind of situation with the canoe, which was needed to traverse rivers, or the ship, which was needed to go on the ocean.

Plus, there were certain obstacles that required you to defeat some enemy before you could proceed past them; for example, to get the TNT to build a canal through the isthmus, you needed to get the key to unlock the door to the room that held the TNT; or to get past a guard, you had to give him a ruby that came from a chest that was guarded by a vampire; etc.

Come to think of it, wasn't Zelda kinda that way; e.g. to get to a certain labyrinth, you needed a raft that came from a dungeon. And Simon's Quest has some similar mechanics as well; e.g. you're only allowed to level up past certain levels in certain areas of the game (e.g. you can't just stay near the beginning and kill those enemies; you have to proceed to later dungeons and kill those enemies, to keep gaining experience), which is kinda like how in Final Fantasy, you have to complete a certain quest in order to unlock powers beyond a certain point.

300 HP. Horse Power?

Horse Pussies; you have to acquire a whole stable full of mares before the guardian feels impressed enough at your accomplishments to let you obtain what you seek.

Would be an awesome game idea lol.

We could create a new RPG game.

Here some ideas.

Classes are: Chad (warrior), Wizard (incel mage), Ranger (Cucktears member), Paladin (pussywhipped cuck), Sorcerer (The greedy Jew), Bard (PUA mass approacher), Berserk (ER, CHO and Lepine).

Items: Lotions of Minoxidil, Finasteride, Injections of T, proteins, looksmaxing items in general.

Weapons: Glock, Chad’s club, Virgin knife, etc...

The game could use D&D ruleset.

I realized something when replaying zelda twilight princess
It was definitely not my favorite game back when i played the wii. I did like metroid prime 3 a lot more (it wasn't exactly a great port for the wii, controls were pretty bad).

It wasn't a game i was planning on ever playing again (i had already played through it multiple times) but then i saw that there was finally a good PC port for it and a lovely linkle mod allowing me to play as a nice female character (female voice, nice outfits, etc) and it also fixed the bad controls.

I found myself having a good time with it and honestly more enjoyable than most PC games i have tried. Not 10/10 amazing obviously but still something enjoyable to play which i have a very hard time finding these days. With good controls and a decent framerate (well over 100) it's enjoyable and i look forward to switching permanently to the zora outfit (i will try some custom colors to make it nice).

I have seen a lot of shills online praising steam claiming it's great but when i look at it it's basically all slop (often shitty 2D games) with basically 0 games actually worth playing.

Honestly i probably had a better time playing metroid prime 1 and 2 via the dolphin emulator despite than basically any other game i tried on PC despite being limited to only 60fps (which i normally flat out refuse to play at).

Main games i really got into on PC lately was Code Vein and haydee in large part thanks to mods.

There is something special with some of the older console releases that you just don't get with basically any modern title. I think some people into consoles are chasing the same thing but you are not getting it from sony and microsoft. Not sure if even nintendo still delivers on that front (never got around to playing BOTW due to me not really liking that art style).
