/kind/ - Random Acts of Kindness

>video games

I love games. Definitely have played some obscure ones. Thanks internet. Wish I had someone to talk to them about. There's also still alot of essential series I haven't played. Most people I meet online just play hours of Counter-Strike or DOTA or whatever. Which is fine, not hating. I just like a huge variety of vidya.

Live A Live, Final Fight, River City Ransom, Strider, Joy Mecha Fight, Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles, Metal Slug, Captain Commando, Super Robot Wars series, etc.

Most rarest game I own is either Metal Slug Anthology or Fire Emblem : Path of Radiance.

>anime

Haven't watched much obscure anime. Votoms is probably the most obscure. Ideon, Hajime No Ippo, and Kaiji maybe?

I really liked Postal 2…

there was a crystal chronicles on the wii but it was nothing like the original

Yeah they definitely need to make a new one.

I have a collection of obscure games from my childhood. I'm likely the only person in the world playing them at any given time. It's sad to see them die but with technology moving forward and it being ever more difficult to run them, with the developers dead and the source code nowhere to be seen, it seems that the games will die after all. Me and a few others that only play them ever few years keep them going. But when we go, so will the games. It's sad.

you can emulate NES and even atari games if you want I'm pretty sure nothing will die unless we let it

Sorry, I should have been more clear. The translation project is an unofficial one that was being done by /vr/ on halfchan a couple of years ago after a bunch of anons from there pooled their money together to buy a copy to upload since were only a hundred (or a thousand? I can't remember) copies of the game ever printed.

If anyone wants to add me about vidya, here it's my steam

Yeah I remember wanting to get those, but I didn't have much money at the time. They should do a new one in the vain of FFCC for NX or Wii U though.

Also Final Fantasy Explorers looks cool.

I remember emulating Summon Night as a kid, didn't get very far for some reason though. I think our computer crashed.

>>24630

/v/ had convinced me to try Summon Night, playing it up as some super awesome underlooked game. I forced myself most of the way through it even though it felt like a chore more than anything (seriously, needing to break your opponents weapon and not kill them for a reward (which comes at a further cost to get and has limited usefulness) even is a bad game mechanic despite being interesting). -then I was (again) faced with a game-breaking event where if you only had one weapon you screwed up any chance of progressing. I had save states set up to see all the cutscene options but I was just done, it wasn't worth the trouble of redo-ing any amount of grinding to fix the game's issues and complete it.

Those were fine, but didn't nearly have the same feel as the original. Although I understand why they don't do the exact same formula for a sequel because the whole point of it was to rid the world of the miasma by destroying Memoria but a remake of it with today's more capable technology would make gathering and playing together a hell of a lot easier. Wish more games did this type of pseudo-rpg feel Any out there I could try?

I remember playing this on a shitty Gateway computer that probably should not have been able to run it.

I still love these guys.

Comfy and dramatic and charming like a 3 legged puppy, but gets shit on because it doesn't have a professional voice cast or the manpower to animate carefully.
