    Video Game Hall of Fame Class 2024

    None of these games were influenced by Myst though. You're talking about Sierra & LucasArts, who had their own thriving adventure games prior to Myst, and none of them follow Myst's gameplay. Myst itself is not really a classical adventure game. It's a world with self-contained puzzles...

    Video Game Hall of Fame Class 2024

    It's fine not liking a game if you can understand the importance. But part of the problem is, I'm not sure what the criteria is of the HoF. Let's take influence for example. The first class (2015) for it took World of Warcraft. And Myst is very much like WoW here. Were both popular games...

    Video Game Hall of Fame Class 2024

    https://www.museumofplay.org/exhibits/world-video-game-hall-of-fame/inducted-games/ * Asteroids * Myst * Resident Evil * SimCity * Ultima Having spent time on reddit today, the threads really disappointed me in exactly how little people know about video game history. Praise for Resident Evil...

    Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes Kick Starter.

    So, upon completion, the game is meh. I actually enjoyed Rising, but this is just not a worthy successor to Suikoden. Issue 1: The battle system. The good? If you want a bit more strategy in your game compared to normal RPGs, the battle system is the way to go. You're going to get killed in...

    Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes Kick Starter.

    I kind of expected that. You're just not going to get source-respectful translations from a company. Fortunately for the PC, eventually some fans will eventually change this, but with the amount of text in the game, it could be years in the future.

    Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes Kick Starter.

    So, I know a lot of people didn't like Rise, but I thought it was a fun diversion. Not too long of a game, and a great diversion until Hundred Heroes comes out. Looking forward to it, as Suikoden was one of my favorite JRPGs.

    Diablo IV - The Real Official Thread

    No. The time is dependent on the total people who report you. I'm assuming some streamer wanted to take #1, and I got there first, and got a few of his watchers to falsely report me. Just the fact though, that you can do this, and a player has no ability to appeal is stupid. Like, at least...

    Diablo IV - The Real Official Thread

    Went back to Diablo 3, as their new season started. I got hit with an "Account Silenced" because multiple people reported me for abusive language. No appeal according to Blizzard. Except that I streamed the entire thing today, and didn't utter a word. And the thing came in the middle of my...

    US $90,100.00 - Castlevania Original NES 1st Production New Sealed Hang Tab High Grade Grail

    Eh, I just find this whole thing completely scammy. About a decade ago, I put up on Ebay 250 PSX JRPGs (some sealed, some not). Didn't even get a bid of $650, which was my minimum price. But granted, none of them were WATA graded.

    Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes Kick Starter.

    Thanks. I've had this lying around, but haven't actually played it yet.

    Diablo IV - The Real Official Thread

    I'm just not sure I'd play the game with everything on. I went from a constant 150 fps to dropping below 60 fps. I just can't play at that frame rate anymore.

    Review the game you finished recently.

    I didn't finish it, but FF7 Rebirth. I just don't understand the praise for this game. It's tedious to play, and it has your standard awful voice acting and nonsensical story. The game itself is just a series of minigames that range from super easy to annoyingly difficult. Not due to the...

    Diablo IV - The Real Official Thread

    Certain classes can one hit pretty much any boss, if you have the right gear. The game isn't really well balanced at the moment.

    What are you nerds playing this weekend?

    Started playing FF7 Rebirth. I'm just not having fun with it, as it feels like a chore playing it. Just waiting for Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes.

    Final Fantasy XVI

    I just don't understand why Square went the direction they did with Final Fantasy. I'm currently making my way through Rebirth, and just struggling. It's gone from a JRPG to an Assassin's Creed clone with focus on bad minigames.
