I was listing Mordin as a positive point. ME2 is mostly just a shitty corridor shooter, but Mordin is cool.scorptatious said:

Yes, that's true of all of them but the newest one had a feature that let you save anytime which was a godsend for a lot of people. Since the OP was asking for older games I figured I'd mention the GBA ones.Buidoirican said:
Different medias you're working with, that example is fairly invalid. A game has to function well and keep the player's attention over several hours, movies just need to be flashy for an hour and a half to sell well. So the fact that so many people like them is a bit more of an argument than in the movie business.FredTheUndead said:
Calling those games bad is more or less just hating the fact that people DO like them. People enjoy the games. Games are meant to entertain, if they're entertaining in the ways intended, then I'd say they're probably successes. Let's look at the context of your argument:
You came into a thread, where a person was asking for a mechanically broken, old RPG. Instead, you list off several newer(with the exception of FF8), mechanically sound RPGs. Way to go. Plus, you've given exactly zero examples of how they're bad. They all have their flaws I'm suuure you could comb out and pick through, as none of them are by any means perfect. The fact is though, none of them are gamebreaking.
So a lot of people didn't read the retro bit in the original post, huh?
OT: Probably Breath of Fire II.
I love the story to bits, but the encounter rate was ridiculously high, the original translation was AWFUL, and the 'run' option was really just a formality, or possibly a 'waste turn' button.
But the really, really worst bit? When you try to run and fail, it doesn't say 'can't run', it says 'Won't run'. The party members aren't even listening to me? Why am I fucking here then!?

That's not even the worst part. Try having to choose between earning Exp or getting items to sell for cash, effectively doubling the amount of grinding required, as well as enemies that'll constantly steal or destroy your equipment.aegix drakan said:
That game is basically the definition of pain.
Funny, don't recall ever saying that. So...avoid the good points I'm making and put words in my mouth? That's honestly the best you can counter with? I never said the games were perfect, and I was giving a general guideline, not a strict law. And guess what, MW2 was good. It was a clone, but it was still functionally sound, and at least somewhat entertaining if you're into the FPS genre. As said before though, it was a clone of it's far superior predecessor. As far as I'm concerned you've thrown your own argument into the ground and moped right down next to it because you can't come up with 1 decent non-sarcastic point. I refuse to take part in this increasingly unrelated discussion in this thread any longer. If you'd like to make any more pathetically meek attempts at trolling, I'll be waiting in PMs. Good day to you.FredTheUndead said:
Christ, did they release that on the NES? I remember playing HotL on my ZX Spectrum, and if a Spectrum could handle it I doubt it exactly pushed the limits of the NES.EverythingIncredible said:
Oh blah. The thread title uses worst and in my opinion that game totally is. I started with Super Mario RPG. I've yet to play a Mario RPG that I like nearly as much as that one.cyber95 said:
Yeah, I found out about that after I put it down. I didn't even realize it, nor could I figure out how to do it once I knew.TheOneMavado said:
Really, screw that game. It's like the developers TRIED to make the worst RPG ever.
Well, no, that doesn't really make sense. Personal taste is something entirely different from quality. They can be casually related, as in someone who would only likes things of a certain quality, but are by no means the same. Planescape is not of your taste, fair enough, but that doesn't make it bad. I can't stand FIFA either, but I'll never say it's bad. I just don't like football.King of the Sandbox said:
By far the worst rpg is Last Remnant by Square Enix. You level by how many battles you fight and how powerful the enemies were and not exp.. So far not bad but here's the problem enemies level with you and with most items having a less than 2% drop rate on items to make better weapons you start to see the problem by the time you get the weapons to fight an enemy its uber strong. Its an rpg with an mmo drop rate.
Most certainly the tabletop game FATAL.
Sexism is built into the core gameplay mechanics.
Character generation requires a d1,000,000.
You have to work out orifice sizes during character generation.
Its possible for your asshole to have a negative diameter.
Combat requires trigonometry.
There is nothing on this planet which is as poorly designed as FATAL.
