As per title. Most computer games these days are made with such unnecessary padding that I want to murder the devs or myself by the end. See, for example, Hyrule Warriors, the 100% 1000 Hour Nightmare, the Review.

The second game I ever 100%ed was Arceus and I still can’t stand the thought of picking it up again, years later. The first game was Horizon Zero Dawn, which is still fun.

        Because it’s just good. It’s like a modern indie game with big bucks software company money. They got top notch crew for everything and managed to make combat not feel like a chore in a JRPG with great music and story.

        I mean, it’s hard not to like it. Recommend SNES version btw, modern versions are not as nice.

        … Yes. If you haven’t played it, I highly recommend it. It’s a fantastic classic RPG.

          It’s one of those games where the sooner you play it in life the better. Because the sheer amount of references and homage to this game is insane.

          Oh, I’m actually playing it. Just about to fight lavos. I just didn’t know it was this revered in the gaming community

        Retropie. You may already know what it is, but it’s well worth it and works rather beautifully.
