I make mostly positive reviews of games I feel passionate about at the moment. I also do some other things like ranking videos or gameplay highlights. If you have an interest in Mario Party, Mega Man, Final Fantasy, or Fire Emblem, you'll probably enjoy my stuff. Maybe.
Danganronpa 2 is a Bad Game
This is probably my favorite video I've made to date. With my last few videos, there were at least a couple things I wasn't a fan of left in because it was too late to change. This video didn't have any of that, so hopefully I don't look back on this poorly in the future.

I've been speedrunning Hylics 2 this entire weekend and this was a run I was extremely happy with. It took me more time than usual to do the Viewax skip and I lost a bit of time with the door skip in the Hylemxylem, but other than that, this was nearly perfect for the route I was going for. I rescue the shopkeeper and grab more bones from the treasure vault to get Multi-Coffees for the Fonthint...

I'm done with Semi-Decent Reviews. Obviously, I'm still going to review games, but I wanted to rebrand because I'm planning on not just doing reviews of video games on the show. Also, I don't like how 90% of what I was doing was just sequel videos. Apologies for the poor camera quality and inconsistent mic quality. I thought my camera was just really bad but like an idiot I had it set to 17 mbp...
putting screwbot factory 2 and figure fighter 2 so low is such a crime
5:16 In Donk-Donk, you are a part of a group called "The Donkers", flying through the sky with your boss to try to get back to Heaven World. You're in my debt now. (also I subbed)
@@DiGi-i9o sorry, you weren’t the first. But I appreciate it anyway!
MEGA MAN 4 IS THE BEST OF THE 6 MEGA MAN VIDEO GAMES 🎮 🕹 ON THE ORIGINAL NES.👍💪
I'd give this game a similar grade I gave the first game which would be a C+. I don't think it is outright bad but it is definitely overrated by most of the fans. I feel like it's highly debatable and splitting hairs on whether the first or second danganronpa game is better as both have similar positives and negatives. (Most of the cast of the first game were not good either let's be honest.) But the first 2 danganronpa games were significantly better than everything that came after them. Ultra despair girls, part 3 of the anime, and V3 killing harmony were mostly terrible.
@@lightning2279 I agree they have similar positives and negatives, but I felt the first game’s negatives weren’t nearly as bad as they were in 2 most of the time, especially the cast. Most were not good in the first game, but I felt more neutral towards the characters overall rather than outright disliking them.
Ok but hear me out Nekomaru's huge cock
Tbh in my opinion the strongest point of SDR2 were the investigations while the weakest one was well...I'll be honest I do not like SDR2's gameplay, having to constantly look up playthroughs cause the Nonstop Debates were sometimes just unbearable. In THH, Nonstop Debates were pretty good and simple, but GOD do they suck in this game, like, why give us so many truth bullets? It's gonna take ages before I get to the one I want.
The problem with Danganronpa 2 is also the main reason why people love it: Nagito He carried the game so hard and his charisma is so strong every character gets sucked into a vacuum by proxy, and since he is not shrouded in mystery like Kokichi, he needs screen time to make sure you are able to understand him towards the end, however Kodaka can't write 16 Nagito's and thus we end up with so much canon fooder as characters, it's especially evident in DR2, while i personally believe Kodaka has problems creating females as compelling as Nagito and Kokichi (Kyoko was a lightning in a bottle cuz Maki ain't it) they were still entertaining compared to the ones in DR2.
I agree with most of this. But I would disagree that Nagito's screen time inherently causes the game to have a ton of "cannon fodder" characters (if that's the point you're trying to make, sorry if I misinterpreted this comment). Nagito plays very minor roles in Chapters 2 and 3, and a lot of time could've been spent developing other characters, that is barely used to do so. It's pretty much just Fuyuhiko that gets any meaningful character development during that time. I also don't have an issue with having a lot of cannon fodder characters - Nekomaru barely contributes to the game yet he's still one of my favorite characters. IMO, the less important characters need to be likeable or entertaining, or have at least something interesting about them for me to enjoy their presence, and I found most of Danganronpa 2's side cast to be either boring or annoying. I personally don't like Kokichi, but that is mostly personal preferences. I will agree that in general his screen time is handled better than Nagito's was.
I can’t even get over it why would I watch this video? I have a hype fixation on rhythm heaven and I only dislike the ones I’m bad at but every game has a special place in my heart the games put in places 30-50 really annoyed me and then I asked myself what I would put there instead… nothing 😭
Agree with the names being sideways. So weird...
24:38 Wrong. It's clearly said Hajime as Izuru Kamukura inserted the virus. Pay attention, please.
I don’t remember that but my mind was also numbed by Junko’s talking so I’ll take your word for it. I definitely should’ve checked that before writing that in the video, but I really wanted my head cannon to be the case so I guess I just didn’t.
Man, I know this is "just your opinion" or whatever but calling Hajime generic is just wrong, plain and simple.
It’s not wrong and I stand by it. When I said that, I was talking about pre-Chapter 6 (don’t remember if I specified that or not). Before the reveal I literally didn’t like anything about him.
@@semicolin367 Yeah, I'm not saying you're wrong for not liking him but saying he has no character traits is just so wrong it doesn't even need to be elaborated on. Hajime obviously has some.
@Seth_blessingSozo I don’t remember saying he has no character traits, and if I did, that’s not what I meant. My point was that pretty much every character trait he has is shared by Makoto or Shuichi, when I don’t find the inverse to be true. And the differences between them and Hajime are the main reasons I like both of them. I just honestly did not feel attached to Hajime much at all, but looking back the specific comment I made about not caring about the decision he had to make in Chapter 6 was probably inaccurate because it did actually make me feel for him a bit. I can totally see why people like him, but I just didn’t find him very interesting to see on screen at all.
@@semicolin367 Except that it's wrong. I don't even have to go further than the prologue to see one of his unique trait: how cautious he is. He's the only one in the cast to be wary of the school trip. And also, unlike the other protags, he's not scared to stand up for himself and doesn't take anyone's sh*t. Even though I also prefer Shuichi to him, I can clearly see he has a more forward personality than him.
@@Seth_blessingSozo Sure, he’s more cautious and forward than the other protagonists, I’ll agree to that. But neither of those traits make him endearing or interesting to me. Like I said, the reason I like the other protagonists are the differences they have from Hajime. Makoto’s kind of just a loveable dweeb who sees the best in everyone, and I really enjoyed playing as him for that reason (also helped by his great and extremely fitting English voice acting). Shuichi, as I’ll go into during my V3 review that’ll release in 5 years once I finally force myself to finish the game again, I appreciate for being a lot more reserved and capable than the other two thanks to him being the main case solver rather than being carried by someone like Kyoko or to a lesser extent, Nagito and Chiaki. I don’t want to argue about this anymore, so I’ll sum up my current feelings on Hajime: I don’t care for him. I find him boring and still don’t think he contributes anything to the game that couldn’t have been written to be done by another character, excluding Chapter 6. I think he’s boring, but not an objectively bad character or anything. Nothing I say in this video is supposed to be objective or change anyone's opinion on any part of the game, especially not negatively. This is not supposed to be “Why Danganronpa 2 is a terrible game that nobody should like”, it’s supposed to be, “I really don’t like Danganronpa 2. This is my justification for why.” All of my opinions are just my own feelings and are completely subject to bias and change. I often state them as if they were facts either for simplicity or to play up my like/dislike of the subject, but know I never intended that section on Hajime to make people realize he’s actually a bad character - that’s basically the opposite of what I want to do on this channel. In general, I want to focus on the good in pieces of media, it’s just that Danganronpa is a special case where this series has caused me (minor) mental anguish for four years and I just kinda want to rant about my likely unjustified dislike for it. I’m glad you like Hajime, and that people really like this game, because in the end the positive experiences gained from it are what really counts.
"Mega Man 4" has one of the best weapon selections, in my opinion: weapons like Pharaoh Shot, Rain Flush and Flash Stopper are awesome, and the other weapons have their own interesting uses. Also, Rush Jet was made much more balanced, compared to the super-broken version in MM3.
I liked it, the cast was entertaining to me, but.. I’ll admit one thing.. the murders could have been much better. It wasn’t really.. exciting. I feel like Mikan killing was a little TOO predictable.

Bro fucking hates Ibuki.
@@TorosAndMakis53 which is fine. If he hates Ibuki, then he hates Ibuki
@@Hyp3rSonic Yes? Why are you telling me this?
@@Hyp3rSonic I'm sure every character has their haters or people who don't care, but the thing is, is that it was Ibuki of all characters, literally one of the least relevant characters in the game, like on my first playthrough of D2, I didn't think all that much and didn't give them much attention until they died, making me realize how much I enjoyed her company. But the thing is is that I was surprised to see someone despise a fictional character so much despite her not really doing all that much. It was kinda silly to me. Lol
Oh, you actually remembered that other comment! I kinda forgot, but i thought that you said that he should Ibuki (thats how i read that comment as) i mean, thats how I saw that comment @@TorosAndMakis53

having played 3 just before 4, having actual decent boss patterns that are recognizable for at least some robot masters is what it bumps it up as best megaman for me (for now, ib still gotta beat the other half of the masters)
recency biass tbh, mm4 did have better stage design tho
@@mimszanadunstedt441 I can assure you my opinion is not recency bias. I just marathoned all the games and my opinion on 4 did not change. In regards to being the best NES game, maybe I just haven’t played anything better, but it’s definitely the best one I’ve played.
@@semicolin367 There are a lot of NES games
@@mimszanadunstedt441 I know. I said in the video (I think) what I really meant was this is my favorite NES game, and the video is just an explanation on why.
You should finish megamix. Well. Have you reached Songbird Tower yet?
More 4 Glazing. Its not that perfect bro
@@Classic_Tomfoolery Nope, you are nitpicking and biased, I win, bye bye. Like I even put in the video that this is all personal opinion, if you were gonna ignore that you could’ve at least made a funny comment or given constructive criticism. This is just nothing.
While 4 isn't my favorite in the classic line. I'd still say it is a top 3 for me. Jesus loves you!
I always thought MM4 was the worst MM game. Bad music, bad graphics, bad robot bosses.
18:16 nice save with the “as of its release” detail because otherwise I would have dropped a whole list. For what it’s worth it might be the one
You know what game I find real disappointing to think about? The Dazzles. The two remixes it gets featured in (3 and 7) prove that there is a lot of potential. Possibilities to have slightly more complex patterns while still relying on hitting on the beat. The remixes both have really good design, graphic-wise, as well, and that's something the first Dazzles doesn't really have, and the second one kinda hits some points, but not all of them. The English vocals also killed it more than Fan Club for sure, even though it's the same lady singing both of the songs. What I think was needed in The Dazzles 2 was a new song altogether, recorded by the original group that made the first song. That'd allow more opportunity to explore complicated patterns versus sticking to "what worked already". It has a *LOT* of potential in both the graphics and game departments. And I appreciate how flexible it is in that regard. I just wish it was executed a lot better, because the remix appearances are their best ones.
Why is toad man perfect if mega man can defeat him in 8 seconds
@@makeshift_battlefield_music You will appreciate him in due time. It will happen to everyone eventually.
BRO WHAT SHRIMP SHUFFLE IS SO STUPIDLY HARD
if you'll pardon me, YOU ARE OUT OF YOUR FUCKING MIND; MEGA MAN 4? THE BEST? don't know what you're smoking, but, brother, put that shit AWAY!
Mega Man 4 is absolutely phenomenal and I'd easily consider it my absolute favorite out of the classic games if it weren't for Mega man 9
Yea i need 50 turns. Was the only way I played mario party. I once attempted to play mario party 5 with 10 turns. Big mistake. What made 50 turns great though was the capsules. 1: i like capsules more than item shops as the rng makes it to where im not buying only gold pipes, custom dice, and triple dice. 2: i prefer capsules as you can place them on spaces making every turn 50 game feel different. By the last 10 turns every space has a item and its chaos. I think its why i get bored with these mario parties. They are just a rush to the gold pipe and its just lack luster at best. But the 20-30 turn limit doesnt help. You need at least 20 turns to even get started. 10 turns is even worse as that just long enough for 1 person to get a star, maybe two. I hope this super mario party has a 50 turn limit so i can enjoy this game again. Hell, give me a 100+ turn limit. Smash bros I can make everyone have 99 lives with 999hp why cant i do that with mario party. More customization in a game the better cause it adds replay value which makes a game more valuable than anything
@@excaliburofgachagames9241 I personally hate the capsules with a passion, but I agree the shops in the other Switch games are too boring for the same reasons. Mario Party 3’s item balancing could be better (every board except Woody Woods is just “buy Magic Lamp, Reverse Shroom or Plunder Chest” most of the time) but I still think it had the best shop design: two types of shops that change inventory based on the player’s rank. I like the idea of capsules, they just don’t feel like they are relevant enough in most of the games I’ve played, and I hate the pacing and mini games of 5 too much to ever consider playing a 50 turn game of it.
As someone who's currently playing through all of the games, it's nice to see a negative opinion honestly! You do bring up amazingly good points and this was an awesome video!
@@-cupcakestudios- Thanks! I thought this video may have come off as biased but I guess it isn’t that obvious of that’s the case.
Remix 5 is my favorite remix ; -;
I’ve never seen a person that actually likes launch party. This is news to me.
I also really like Launch Party lol
I think its A tier

I am a perfectionist in games, so as I was playing this game I always got the medal before going to the next stage. I always felt mad when I failed Monkey Watch or Working Dough, but I was fine with Air Rally. It's just so good. It's so fun. I love how you can literally just play it with your eyes closed and still have fun.
I did the same, skipped working dough and monkey a little bit but cleared it up, but I've never gotten love rap 2's medal (maybe I'll push for it sometime)
@@GDOsmium When I got to Love Rap 2, I couldn't beat it, even struggling to get an OK. Because I was mad at is, I decided to just continue for a few levels. I got Cheer Readers 2, Hole In One 2, and Screwbot Factory 2 first try Superb
to everyone struggling to clear Love Rap 2, from someone who Perfected it: do not look. close your eyes entirely. turn your brain off. just vibe with the music and press A when it feels right in your soul. i literally laid on a bed facedown on a pillow and had no thoughts head empty and stopped thinking and that's the only way i was able to perfect it.
@@gracegrrl007 I'll try it later, thanks! It's really fun playing rh blindfolded
@@GDOsmium It really is LOL, my friend and I spent several days in a row trying to perfect every game and for several of them our only chance was to blindfold ourselves on purpose 😌✌️
love this video, im glad that there's another negative danganronpa review to fuel my own hope's peak death game i've been working on for a long while with different characters who mostly aren't assholes. also i feel like i have to rant a bit about that dark comedy bit. dark comedy isn't when something terrible happens and then there's an unrelated joke, it's when there's a joke about the terrible thing. hell, even i tried this (for better or worse) in my own game. "…You know, not only do I feel bad for (ch. 1 victim) for dying… I feel bad that they died in such a scumhole, too." which I personally see as better than "This reminds me of that one time I had a burger and it was abducted by aliens!" and that thing being given a cg for some reason.
Thanks for the acclaim! I've toyed with the idea of making my own version of the game for a while. If you ever release the game you're working on (or if it's already released and I missed it), let me know, I'd like to try it out.
@@semicolin367 it's not close to being done at all, I've got the script done up to daily life of chapter 3, lol. i do however have the idle sprites, personalities, backstories and all that pre-game stuff for the 17 (yeah i misstepped the student number oops) characters. i'll release it partially once im done with developing chapter 3, but that includes all the alternate poses, backgrounds, cgs, free time, yeah. but i can't wait to see the rest of your reviews and see you tear apart the other games if you get to them. this video actually inspired me to get back to writing, so thanks for that. 👍

Hating Aoi Asahina moreso than Yasahiro or Higumi, never thought I'd see the day
@@chuckidalucki1967 at least those two made me laugh a few times, and I liked how the game treated them more like jokes than Aoi was.
Honestly, since i keep seeing and hearing only about the positives of the game, kinda forgot the criticism 😅 Well i mean, i always knew danganronpa wasn't perfect it had its.....umm... flaws lets just say that. But kinda put it under the rouge (have no idea, if its correctly spelled) Hearing this kind of take is refreshing. Danganronpa is, has alot of flaws, but its also its charm. Like omg the games have only like 2 types of flaws. 1. Minor flaws, not to big but still... 2.The biggest flaws ever! XD Welp guess have fun with danganronpa 2
Love rap 49 is insane
No, Love Rap is the 49th best game. My opinion is objectively correct and nobody can argue with it.
so so *so* glad that mega man 4 is getting the love it deserves here! by far my favorite of the classic series with the best music and characters :') (btw where could we hypothetically listen to that full pharaoh man rant? huge pharaoh man fan here :p he's my favorite robot master from mm4~)
