A Look Back at Mystery Dungeon's Origins: A Mystery Dungeon Retrospective
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 лип 2024
- Some of my fondest gaming memories come from the first few Pokémon Mystery Dungeon games. But, not only were there tons of other non-Pokémon Mystery Dungeon games in this Chunsoft-created series, but there were eleven Mystery Dungeon games that predated the original Pokémon Mystery Dungeon Rescue Team games! So, today on Stuff We Play, let's go through three important early Mystery Dungeon titles and learn about the origins of the Mystery Dungeon roguelike series itself!

I bet most people don't know that Mystery Dungeon is a separate franchise.
Duh? What else is it?
I was so happy to discover that there is a whole bunch of these.
What are you even talking about?
I simply LOVE Mystery Dungeon games since I was a child, was my favorite genre for years, I understand that is not for everyone, but I really recommend Azure Dreams for PSX!
Shiren the wanderer is my favorite game of all time
I learned a week or two that the Shiren the wanderer was also on the N64, but it's was released only in Japan.
Explorers of Time is too good for a spin off Pokémon game. I replayed it last year and the story still is really good to me. The music too.
Red rescue team was a staple of my childhood. So I guess I'm finna cop all of these if I can.
The appeal to me for Pokémon blue rescue team was I watched old VHS tape from my cousin to watch Pikachu Winter Vacation and was cool imagine if you could play as just the Pokémon but still I got confused since I never played a rogue like before
I've spent dozens of hours playing Chocobo Dungeon 2 on PS1, and I think it's aged very well:
On PS1, the 2nd opted for an elegant round polygon rendering with saturated colors, as opposed to the very clean pixel rendering of the 1st opus, which also had more sprite animations in response to our actions.
The ATB bar has been removed to streamline combat. The menu interface is less cryptic, yet comfortably concise.
Mechanics are explained more explicitly in the 1st opus.
One of the aspects of Chocobo Dungeon 2 that I appreciate the most is its inventory system, which articulates our progress and the pace of combat. Every single resource is consumable, and the way you use it can be an asset or a thorn in your side, in the short or long term. This gives us a sense of responsibility and tension during long excursions. The 2nd opus also has the excellent idea of making saving (inside dungeons) a resource, as in the old Resident Evil games.
The second valuable aspect is the development of the village and the plot: you meet new NPCs on certain floors who will populate the village and develop businesses. This creates a sense of commitment and provides more comforts for getting deeper into the adventure.
Ohhh huh, there's a reference to the Shiren the Wanderer MC's sprite in the new AI: The Somnium Files game, but I had no idea that series existed until now, and I just assumed it was a parody of Link, lol
Bro Link never wore the Wanderer hat what are you smoking 🗣️🗣️🗣️
I personally felt the DS version kind of sanded off a lot of the interesting roughness of the famicom game, this is kind of true of the 5th game as well but that game at least adds a lot of interesting mechanics
Im debating on wether or not to get SHIREN physical copy or go digital?
New Shiren 2024 BABEEEE!
Torneko is brutally hard but totally worth playing dem games.
Way agreed!
Not running - fast forwarding. That is why all the other entities also move faster ;)
I’ve not even watched the video yet but I’ve given it a like a left a comment to help with the algorithm ✌🏻
Thank you so much!
@@StuffWePlay your welcome. I always look forward to your content. Live long and prosper!!
2:16 "Rouge" 🙄
just commenting for the algorithm
Hey, Stuff We Play. Can you do a Art of Failure episode on Duke Nukem Forever?
i only played the pokemon mystery dungeon games
In after.
Wait the yeck do you kean shiren 5 is for ds why didnt anyone tell me 😞
I bet the majority of You have forgotten about Waku puyo dungeon,Brave frontier rogue story and Touhou mystery dungeon
You had a great opportunity to share your love of some unknown games and get more people exposed to them, and instead you used it to try to sound superior because you know of some obscure video games
@@stubbwinkley4015 And not only that, they have fuck-all to do with Mystery Dungeon or Spike Chunsoft. They're separate games/series entirely.
guess I'm the oddball here 🤣🤣🤣🤣. I actually haven't played any game in the pokemon series. I don't really have a reason for it. Just never got into it
That's fair! That said, if you have to play any of them and the regular games aren't catching your interest, perhaps give one of the Mystery Dungeon games a shot!
@@StuffWePlay thanks for the suggestions
Cries in azure dreams
Why are you so underrated
Wait the yeck do you kean shiren 5 is for ds why didnt anyone tell me 😞
It's in the DS but it's also on Steam now.
