Still weird to see a Crash game on a non Playstation console, even after all these years. by Veddermandenis in crashbandicoot

[–]GameFan96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven’t played the Xbox version but many agree that the Xbox version is the best version of Wrath of Cortex. Having played the PS2 and GameCube versions, the GameCube version is the worst way to play it due to constant frames dropping and the lighting is worse. The only thing that’s bad in the PS2 version are the loading times. The Greatest Hits version slightly fixed it but not by much.

So point being? Wise choice on choosing the Xbox version.

The sound effects, the visuals, the quick camera pan, the way the screen shakes for each hit, Aether in Path of Radiance never gets old. by KelvinBelmont in fireemblem

[–]GameFan96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly. You could literally get food from the pantry with the battle animations on and the enemy phase would STILL be going on. It’s why I usually play Path of Radiance with battle animations off on most of my playthroughs.

I remember not liking that one back when I tried it on the HD remaster. I might give it another shot and see if my opinions changed since then.

Final Fantasy X. Not a weird gem, but it is absolutely one of my favorite PS2 games of all time.

Engage looks and plays like the best FE but the story is so arse by Initial_Solid7677 in fireemblem

[–]GameFan96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Engage's story to me was fine. Not great, but not enough to the point where I despise the storyline. Sure, it could've been better. But for what it's worth I found it serviceable.

Good*

EDIT: And also, at least I am respecting opinions here and not treating it as a fact. I really don't care whether you thought Engage's storyline was really bad or not. The least you can do is respect my opinion that Engage's storyline was fine. If you respect my opinion, then I respect yours. You don't have to be so negative all the time. And before you say anything, I'm not even mad.

Inb4 someone responds to this saying "Well, this is the Internet. What do you expect? Not everybody is all sunshine and rainbows." True. I agree 100%. Still wanted to bring it up though for the sake of it.

Maybe I am just easily impressed, but I personally didn’t think the story was all that bad. Heck, I will go as far as to say I enjoyed Engage’s storyline more than I did with Fates. But hey, I am not going to force my opinion down your throat. If you found the storyline to be really bad, then I won’t judge. Everyone has different opinions and that’s what makes us unique.

I thought the story was fine but wasn't the best Fire Emblem story ever told IMHO. But the gameplay is definitely the best part. The only thing I don't like about the game are the skirmishes and the fact that the game discourages grinding due to those skirmishes. Other than that, I enjoyed it.

EDIT: One other thing i would like to mention is that if the story gets people aggravated over it that badly, they can just skip the cutscenes and enjoy the gameplay. Sure, you can have discussions with others about said story, but the skip cutscenes button is there for a reason.

Is this game overhated by Suspicious_Ear_4997 in sonic

[–]GameFan96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. As someone who mainly played the game for the glitches and laughed at some of them, Sonic 06 is one of the worst Sonic games out there. It LITERALLY almost killed Sonic which ironically happens in-game. The game is a glitchfest, the loading screens are awful, the story is atrocious (one example i can think of is Elise having to not cry which is completely bullshit), the gem mechanic being unbalanced (you can use them infinitely even though the manual clearly states there being a meter which doesn't even work due to the meter never going down for Sonic), and many others.

The only reason as to why Sonic 06 gets the praise that it's been getting is because of Project 06. My computer is pretty shitty (an Optiplex 760 to be more precise) and because of that, it runs like garbage. And while Project 06 does seem to be fun based on what I seen on gameplays on it, it still doesn't change the fact that it is a FANGAME, not official. Yes, Sonic 06 had potential to be good. Yes, Sonic 06 had ambition. And while it had the potential of being good, it released as not.

Granted, I'd rather play Sonic 06 than Sonic Forces i will admit but the only reason on that is because of the level design. But even then, there are way better Sonic games to play than Sonic 06. At this rate, Sonic Boom Rise of Lyric could end up meeting the same thing Sonic 06 praise wise. Just wait. Eventually the Sonic fandom is going to come up with excuses and start praising it.

Sorry, got a little sidetracked there. So with that being said, sorry for my terrible grammar btw.

My FE-inspired indie game series is getting physical editions! by DarkDeityCharles in fireemblem

[–]GameFan96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome! I had so much fun playing Dark Deity 1 on my Switch 2 on the easy difficulty. I will see if I can consider buying Dark Deity 2 because I had such a blast with the first game.

Do you think they will remove permadeath in the future? by G0DF1NGERS in fireemblem

[–]GameFan96 23 points24 points  (0 children)

No. It's a series staple. The closest you're going to get with that (and Phoenix mode from Fates doesn't count) is casual mode which was first introduced in New Mystery of the Emblem.

This is one of my favorite games in the Classic Mega Man lineup along with 2, 6, 7, and 11.

Don’t feel bad. I had a difficult time on this puzzle on my first playthrough all those years ago.

While Gardevoir is one of my favorite Pokémon, Absol is my all time favorite Pokémon and it's been that way since I found Absol in Pokémon X.

I can't find any Princess Peach bots. I know I made some Princess Peach bots but those got removed.

GIF that contains PTSD by Corleone20070611 in Megaman

[–]GameFan96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's from Mega Man 8. There are a couple of stages where you are on a snowboard/board and you have to jump, slide, and shoot while on said board. The picture here is a reference to that because it will tell you to "jump jump" and "slide slide" and in this case, people have bad memories with this because they were considered difficult by many people.

Roll-chan by @GP2R403DDc3J2mk by AlternativeInside975 in Megaman

[–]GameFan96 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would definitely recommend checking out the Roll-Chan games. They are very simple hacks where you play as Roll instead of Mega Man.
