If anyone says it's not, they're genuinely not worth listening to.
That doesn't mean you need to end up loving it but, it is a very different game that can give a ton of perspective on the action adventure model of gameplay. It's the only Zelda that actually does what it does.
BMittz@BMittzzz
is zelda 1 even worth playing

@Plasma_Legion @Spiders_STG I don't recall saying anyone wasn't having fun. The guy feeding extra credits into a KOF final boss for extra and health and meter might love it.
There's an interview from Final Fight creators where they were shocked to find out how much Americans loved to credit feed.

@FunkyStrong69 @Spiders_STG If you continue to pay for something that are not enjoying then you're retarded. Video games (arcade games, most of all) are an opt-in experience.

The "arcade games were just hard to scam you out of your coins" claim is only about 30% true.
The other 70% of the story is "arcade rats back in the day (especially in Japan) were so crazy fucking good that the games had to protect themselves using difficulty."
Mason@FinalMasonry
Arcade games are the only genre that are unfair if Joe Schmoe cant walk up to one for the first time ever and clear it blind
English
@FinalMasonry Now I'm convinced it's just your algorithm and the crowd you bring with you lol. You reply to a QRT, and suddenly this post gets a fresh round of RTs again.
English
@FunkyStrong69 and somehow all the people who reply haven't played an arcade game in the past 30 years but are ready to tell you theres no depth
English
crazy the numbers you'll do on here just by paraphrasing Electric Underground

@FunkyStrong69 @FinalMasonry Tbf, nothing in UFO50 worked very well

Knives in #FinalFight play a special role. They're permanent hazards!! This is because your attack button is the same as the item pickup button.
It adds (kuso) depth to the game. Many hate it but I think it is a cool dynamic that might be worth capturing in a more intuitive way.
English
@FinalMasonry Ah, I catch what you mean. Similar to suicide bullets or just simply an enemy that explodes on death.
The screaming kamikaze guys in Serious Sam are legendary, surprised the gimmick isn't copied more.
English
@FunkyStrong69 I think because its a weapon pick up, it feels janky. But the concept of a bmup enemy forcing you to reposition after taking them out is cool. Imagine if a bear trap fell instead. I think the concept has potential but needs to escape being an upgrade
English
ER is just going to be how the measure what came before. The less streamlined and open world it is, they more they're going to hate it. Demon's Souls created this genre by doing things that have never been done before. Elden Ring sold millions by being more like everything else.
English
this was kind of inevitable when Elden Ring was a big AAA blockbuster
do the math
Elden Ring sold 20 million copies
20 million people did NOT play Demon's Souls
You're talking to people whose first game was Elden Ring. Not much else to it.
AesirAesthetics • SNAILS HAVE SKELETONS 🐌🎮@AesirAesthetics
you guys are just going to have to accept that Demon's Souls is S-tier the entire Soulslike genre was not born from a B-tier game
English
@YoshischizoSTG Also considered those a "tunnel shooters" subgenre, but that's just me. Always considered Star Fox a shmup. If hori and vert can be shmups I don't see why tunnel can't be.
I also always considered like, Metal Slug and Contra to be shmups, in their own "run n gun" sub category.
English
saw a few posts so confusing i gotta ask.
are space harrier and after burner STGs? i've seen multiple confused japanese guys stating their confusion over how they always thought space harrier and after burner are STGs and i want to know what the consensus is
English
@neogeo8man @Petzza777Loooo @nygma0451 And it's like, yea no shit dude, they're casuals. Of course they think a TMNT bmup with a big dumb Souls iframe dodge roll is good. These people don't know what input delay is in the first place, of course they're not gonna notice it in the collection.
English
@neogeo8man @Petzza777Loooo @nygma0451 Sure, but that's not what's really happening here. Both his videos on the recent TMNT releases begin with a bunch of "oh my GOD can you BELIEVE they liked this shit?!" from game journalists reviews. He's obsessed with IGN reviews.
English
I can understand why The Electric Underground defends & reveres Japanese arcade games. Arcade games are dying, even in Japan. Their design philosophy could be replaced with something worse. Such as gacha shit, live service, & the AAA open-world formula from the West.
English
@Jonatha4480 @nygma0451 Aint see anyone else talk about how aspect ratio effects mechanics and level design. He really is one of a kind.
English
@nygma0451 I love electric underground for the fact that after you wach a single review of his you see how much other video game reviewers are fucking frauds since he's one of the few that actually go in depth about gameplay design instead of recapping the story from start 2 finish of games
English
@CrazyArcadia @nygma0451 Not odd at all dude. I love Disco Elysium and also getting 1CCs in Gradius, these are not in contradiction. These action game guys tend to be deeply narrow minded.
English
@nygma0451 I'm a bit of an oddball though since I like textheavy CRPGs as much as Cave shmups.. and can enjoy a casual Yoshi game the same (but for different reasons) as trying to 1CC Metal Slug. Still, I dislike games 'wasting time' and mechanics that are boring or hand-holding.
English
@Plasma_Legion @nygma0451 Trouble with these action game guys is that they're deeply myopic. Yes shmups are the best, video games in their most pure form, but I promise you other games are good. RPGs and narrative games have immense merit. Different genres are basically different mediums entirely.
English
@nygma0451 That said shmups are fun and everyone should try them.
English
@Petzza777Loooo @nygma0451 God he really can't shut the fuck up about professional game reviews lol. Like, I know gamer journalist are morons man, who cares. Is the game good or nad? Don't need a 20 minute video intro going "Can you believe Polygon and IGN said THIS???"
English
@nygma0451 He needs to get off his soap box about game journalists as well. Theres no need to bring up IGN’s god hand review while talking about SIFU.
English
@nygma0451 @J_master1336 I thought the main criticism of 2XKO wasn't that it's dumbed down, it's that it's a real freak of a game specifically made for MvC heads.
I'm not playing that shit either way, but that was my read either way.
English
@J_master1336 Fighting games are being dumbed down for the lowest common denominator. Look at Tekken 8 and that League of Legend fighting game.
English
Live service/gachas are phasing out MMOS (demographic skewers way older these days especially wow and FF14)
Open world rpg slop is killing short and focused action games with replay value and high skill ceilings.
Fighting games are still around but.....It's complicated 😅

@mushitheguchi @nygma0451 Overall you're correct, Mark just isn't much of a hater and generally stays in his lane as a critic... but it's very noticeable and cringey when he steps outside it.
These action game guys tend to be deeply myopic. Shmups are not the only games worth playing, promise.
English
@mushitheguchi @nygma0451 It was pretty strange when he refused to engage the upgrade / RPG mechanics of Stellar Blade, effectively doing a 0% run right away, and then complained that combat is grueling and the player doesn't do damage.
