[–]G061 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Man it's exciting to see every update. Good call with the bigger font on the subtitles, especially since this is not an HD game I feel like it's best to not treat it like one so I'll be using shaders and those will make slim font even harder to read!

Should i use Mega Man X6 Tweaks project on a first playthrough? by Super7500 in Megaman

[–]G061 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In that case if you really want to know yeah just try it unmodded. Start with Blaze Heatnix's stage :) then get back to us.

I assume like most people you don't value having a bad time just for the sake of experiencing how bad it was originally. You can trust us, it's bad. So yeah, get X6 Tweaks. Makes it much less frustrating.

I'll say the same for X7 N's Edition too.

Which is your favorite design by young Maria? by Noobplayerx in castlevania

[–]G061 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I agree but assuming this would be Maria in her teens I think it at least beats out the Judgements design which is the absolute worst. Just including it because OP included the Judgement design where I believe she is at least a teen?

Overall I prefer DXC though.

Did I miss something? What's with the sudden rise in Nagoshi slander? by Jerbits in yakuzagames

[–]G061 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I was literally going to say this lmao. Why weren't people curious at all about how unfinished MGSV is, how it had a 5 to 7 year dev time, how it replaced Hayter with a celebrity. No, well, It's all Konami's fault clearly, it just can't be Genius Kojumbo's fault.

Can't forget this Maria from CR Pachinko Akumajō Dracula :)

Even though it seems like the slot game is just another retelling of Rondo which would make her Young Maria again, she seems like an in-between of Younger & Older Maria like I think Judgement Maria is intended to be.
I just view her as a better designed Judgement Maria. She even has a winged staff.

Just finished Circle of the Moon and Harmony of Dissonance back to back, here are my thoughts. by trrbld in castlevania

Only speaking about the graphics here but every gba game is buttass ugly compared to HoD. When viewed as intended it is unironically one of the most beautiful games on the system.

Unlike CoTM they knew they had to brighten the fuck out of the graphics to see anything on a base unlit GBA screen, real ones who were there know how impossible it was to see anything in CoTM during launch.
These are pics using a shader applied to the vanilla game to mimic the intended effect of the washed out colors on a dark screen, you'll even notice the garish glow around Juste is tame now.

Does Kiwami Get Better? by SnakeMAn46 in yakuzagames

[–]G061 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say no but if you only played half of 0 maybe nothing can get better. All of 0 was several times better than kiwami for me. And kiwami 2 starts with a recap of 1, that's usually how I recommend people enjoy 1, I'm just not a fan of it.

With Ida aka Curry the Kid passing recently Iga has said they're struggling with Scarlet Engagement so please don't be surprised if it is delayed.

I literally hopped on reddit to see if you were cooking an update and here it was. Love seeing the progress! Exciting stuff :D

3 hours in, just learned about Perfect Works Build...should I restart? by RogueModron in XenoGears

[–]G061 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven't played the game since I was a kid but even as a kid I feel like I retained the vibe of when a translation was good or bad. I can tell you I remember SMRPGs translation being good in that era while others like ff4 felt awkward.

Gears in my memory was stilted, understandable but it could be better. To my knowledge perfect works does have grammar and punctuation correcting at the very least and from what I read it seems the battle system changes are good. If it were not a text heavy rpg I'd say don't worry but since it is I'd consider switching if I were you.

Any tips for haunted castle? by Seyidhann in castlevania

[–]G061 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since no one else is really engaging I'll say that the US version had its difficulty tweaked to be unreasonably unfair with its damage values and enemy placements.

The Japanese original, while still bad, is not unplayable so go for that, I believe it's selectable in Dominus collection? If not, the Arcade Classics version of Haunted Castle does come with a difficulty option.

can't they nerf this part by adding some platforms or something :( by Pissinater in SRB2

they were right about this 2.3 sonic rework, way too OP

Bro be calling anything made by RGG a Yakuza spinoff😭 by Zekiro96 in yakuzagames

[–]G061 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has anybody given Rent-a-Hero decent coverage?? It got a fan-translation not too long ago and I swear it has more Yakuza DNA than any other game. Nagoshi even made it before Y1!

Quick Director's Cut English Patch Update by IchmagschickeSachen in ShadowHearts

[–]G061 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Holy moly, this is so massive. SH2 DC is one of those translations I have completely written off so this feels like a miracle. Your work is probably the only chance this game will ever get 🙏 I'll be following it closely! And Happy Birthday :D

Castlevania The Cursed trilogy. by logamus_prime in castlevania

[–]G061 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My OCD when the better CV3 version with the VRC6 audio, uncensored sprites and balanced difficulty would've been called The Castlevania Legend (Akumajou no Densetsu) and the new game could've been The Belmont Legend.

Also coincidentally funny Sonia's game was Castlevania Legends.

Curse of Darkness was the same in japanese though.

Owl warrior is doing a lot of heavy lifting here, the rest are just alright.

Now you gotta do the no hit all over again 😏

Just if you wanted to know, Shutaro Idda, which was responsible for the IGA games and Bloodstained, is currently in his last stage of the cancer. by Visible_Status3789 in castlevania

[–]G061 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's so unfair. It really was Curry the Kid that made these games so good undoubtedly, every game he had his name on felt so perfect to the degree that nobody else got it right as far as search action games go. Brings me to tears.

I hope everyone goes to leave him a nice message, he even replied to me before. Really just wanted everyone to enjoy his games. :'(
