      If you think that was bad, when I first got that game (or 2 or 3), I didn't even have a memory card, and my dad wouldn't let me get one for a while because he thought it would lead me to getting addicted to video games (never mind that I only had so many games and I'd probably play less since I wouldn't be playing through the same areas over and over again. Then again, my dad was born in '47).

    The first game I remember viscerally hating was Yoshi’s Story because it was sold to me on a bed of lies. Thinking it’d be the true worthy sequel to the showstopper Yoshi’s Island what I got was a boring, soulless, 30 min long game made for babies that I beat on my first sitting. The graphics were bland, the music was lame, the challenge was nonexistent, and had very few stages. It was also one of the first games I bought with my own allowance so it stung, hard. Ended up trading it shortly after.

    I'm surprised you mentioned Robotech Battlecry and didn't have it on your "hate it" list due to the infamous "Cat's Eye" mission where you were forced to do an escort mission with a ship gathering data within space debris and you had to fight off swarms of enemies trying to kill it... and they were EFFICIENT in killing your escort.

    I initially felt the same way about Phantasy Star 3 and I think it was because it wasn't what I was expecting and it (initially) did not feel like it was connected to the series or like a real sequel to phantasy star (until you realize something in the plot). I hated it initially , but something kept me going and I came to appreciate it very much indeed. It really did something kind of bold for the time.

    Terrible take on PSO Episode III: C.A.R.D. Revolution. You played the game for 5 minutes, didn't known how to play or what you were doing and based your opnion on that. It's one thing to dislike card games or strategy games in general and I get that but PSO Ep.III is an amazing game that was ahead of it's time.
    It really bothers me when people try to compare PSO Ep. I & II to Ep. III. It's like comparing apples to oranges. I wish they had never put "Episode III" in it's title so players couldn't walk into the game with nostalgic expectations. As a PSO game it's not the same as the originals but as it's own game it's an amazing turn based strategy card board game.

    Metroid Prime 2 Echoes is a game I really hate. In Europe we were at 50hz, Prime 1 is in my top 5 greatest games of all time, I NEEDED that sequel! I had to buy a brand new tv that could handle 60hz to play it, and boy was it a let down. Ammo for guns, no exploration, trapped in small domes for most of the game, unoriginal zero intrigue dark vs light story. I felt ripped off compared to what Prime 1 was and how deep that game went from the immersion to the ost to the mysteries and exploration.
    I'm glad Prime 3 picked it up again after the horror that was Prime 2.

    @Ammy-q4w Рік тому +1

    Tales of Arise ended up being a game I disliked, even though I really wanted to love it since Tales of Berseria is one of my favorite games. The enemies would just annihilate my characters, healing had forced limits which broke combat immersion, and items were way too expensive which made the healing/reviving process and buying new gear complicated to the point of being gamebreaking when going against harder enemies. The bosses were very unfair unless you played on easy since they had massive health bars while your party barely did any damage even with upgraded gear, and they would be destroyed instantly by their damage output unless you dodged perfectly all the time which not all the characters would since you can't control the entire party at once, and you were screwed if you lost your healers. It also got rid of things from Berseria such as being able to customize AI of individual characters to match your playstyle and being able to slot arts on the button of your choosing as you unlocked them to create combo chains, and you had way less slots in Arise than Berseria for some reason.That said, the graphics and music in Arise were very good since it's a PS5 game, and there were unique aspects to the combat I enjoyed such as the fire sword, and the new mobility options such as time-slowed dodges, which Berseria lacked due to you relying on blocking instead, and Arise did have better combo finishers as well.I also felt like the characters were average compared to Berseria's, and the villains/main party were stereotypical, while Berseria's characters were full of depth and felt like something unique. There were aspects of Berseria that remained such as free will being a centre to the story, and I did enjoy the party members enough to get invested in them.

    i had really high expectations for the resident evil 3 remake. only to get scammed out on the preorder with no fucking refunds. wasted money on the preorder only to finish the game two hours after getting it. no mercenaries, no clock tower, no special grenade ammo. tyrell and carlos' part was the only sort of fun part. also there are no extra modes, just some shitty model viewer and an art gallery. man, what a fucking waste.

    I love Phantasy Star 3 for a number of reasons but I do understand why some people don't like it. The Titan animation. Yeah, it's like a big middle finger, not good enough. Phantasy Star 2 battle animation was exciting, this one isn't. However, I do appreciate the difference in music style even though some of the songs are lame. Others are nice and the progression of the main theme as you go along the generations is a great implementation. Like you said, the dungeon songs are cool and there are other nice ones like the battle end, the victory theme, etc.
    What I liked it the most was the somber theme. It's a very dark and depressing game in stark contrast with most of 2's.
    I really like the branching storylines. You could go for the longest one or the shortest route. The game delivered in the end for me but I get it why some people don't like it.

    I'm currently playing through Phantasy Star 3 for the first time. The "Poison" status and "Death" are probably the worse of any game I've played, because the Techniques aren't 100%. So, I'm always carrying Antidote for what is typically a minor status in other games. The music isn't as great as the other two I've played (I still need to play 4. It's next). I like the Generation Mechanic, but the game overall isn't the worse RPG; but it doesn't feel like Phantasy Star.
    Btw, Happy Console Gamer, did you at least pre-order the vinyl Soundtracks?

    While I do understand why it is considered the black sheep of the series, I actually love Phantasy Star III. Sure, it isn't on the same level of quality as the other original games in the series and I consider those games to be among my favorite games of all time, but I find its flaws to be eccentric in a charming kind of way. It would be interesting if a remake of Phantasy Star III were done in a style to make it closer to Phantasy Star IV in gameplay, I wonder if that might get people to warm up to it.

    I wanted to love Fire Emblem Shadows of Valentia so badly. I thought it would become one of my favorite FE games. I thought the concept of them remaking the second one on the Famicom was such a cool idea, and it was done very well. But I just couldn't get past how grindy it felt and the dungeon exploration. I don't necessarily mind those types of RPGs but not in Fire Emblem.

    For me, the first game that comes to mind that I hate is Super Thunder Blade . One of the first games I got with my Mega Drive for Christmas and I couldn't stand it. It was so damn choppy that I found it too difficult to make any real progress in. Thankfully, I also had SOR1, Golden Axe, Alien Storm, and Revenge of Shinobi to occupy myself with instead.

    I've only recently played through Phantasy Star II, so i've yet to play Phantasy Star III. Phantasy Online was my favourite game of all time, i played it on the Dreamcast, (my first time ever playing online). I loved the hunting of rare weapons/armour etc. Then i returned to it and episode II on the Xbox, i stilled loved the game and hunting for rares. My Xbox hardrive crashed and i lost over 3 years of gameplay data, even though i eventually went back to it, i couldn't enjoy it,like i once did. I just so wanted to play PSO2 but that never got a console release in Europe for years (For me personally the release in Europe was far too long a wait). Eventually when it did, as much as i thought the game was ok, it didn't have the draw like it's predecessor. But the one game i did hate and was so hyped for was Phantasy Star Universe, i was so disappointed with it compared to PSO episodes 1&2 . I felt the game was trash.

    TBH Generations of Doom might be my second favorite Phantasy Star. I was mixed on the graphics but i loved the story, the generation elements, monster designs, and the music. I thought the game being broken into generations also helped with pacing. I never felt like any portion of the story went on for too long.
