maybe that's why it went down

if you could get bursts easily, exp+ items and etc. like rare drop bonus would be relatively useless.

as i mentioned in other thread, game felt buggy. my weapon switches simultaneously switched my subpallete automatically to subpallete 4.

Honestly, I don't remember. I was trying to select the first option, and it was one of those "you have one option" boxes. Something about memory, I think. If I can log on again, I might be able to repeat it.

I don't know, the endgame would feel more "fun" if PSE Bursts were slightly easier to get. As it is now (well, before this maint) even with a full multiparty sticking like glue it's excruciatingly hard to get a Burst going, much less a crossburst, without a crystal protect.

But yeah it was a really nice multiparty + map ;_; Dark Ragne and Tranmizers and no farking conveyor belts...

It's also been a while since anyone has told you not to type like a fool, apparently. Not being a professional writer is one thing. Learning how to capitalize the letter I and using very basic punctuation is another.

Though I suppose your age explains a lot about both this and your feelings on older games.

I wish I could hate you to death through the internet.

I love you so much right now~<3


Indeed people don't appreciate the greatness of past games and their experiences we've been through.

There's plenty of love for the both of you.


hmm. iv been playing for 17years idk if that is modern? i have held old new and everything in between. im just a big fan of voice acting since i do some myself. so the older games just dont do it for me. i still play some of my 94 games but for the most part i want to play stuff around 2002ish. ffx star ocean till the end of time. those are the last two i was just playing. before that was tatics

No love for you, son. I am disappoint. You want to start throwing figures around? I picked up my first controller when I was 4, probably before you were even an inch in your daddy's crotch.

I don't normally wave the e-peen, but I've got 22 years on you (currently 26, turning 27 this year). It's hard to claim yourself to know anything about gaming when you completely discredit a whole generation of gaming like you did earlier by badmouthing 16-bit games.

That was just, well... childish for a lack of better words.

FYI

Phantasy Star IV is way more involved than "Paperboy". Paperboy is very simple 4 bit early 80's arcade game.

Ps IV is from 1993 and has a storyline, a cast of various characters each with their own personality, had comic/manga-like cut scenes (all hand drawn pixel based art), 3 planets, 2 space stations, multiple "dungeons" to traverse.

It introduced the "Hunter's Guild" and it's "quests", "Skills" (now called Photon Arts in PSU/PSp/Psp-i/PsZ/PSO2), it with Ps II introduced hybrid human/monster beings called NUMAN (now called Newmans), andriods (Casts) were first shown in PsIII and again in Ps IV, many enemy types in PSO 2 are loosely based on designs from Ps I, Ps II, and Ps IV.

Don't be a dick, now. You don't have to write with perfect grammar all the time. The only time I feel that it's necessary (for me) is when I'm posting to a forum or something similar.

Any other time, I neglect to use capital letters and other 'proper' points of grammar.

i didnt say they were bad games read my comments. i just said i dont enjoy them that much anymore. and for the poor grammar, im using a laptop that i can hardly even type on not alone be accurate. my kb i use on my full pc and xbox is about 2 times bigger. but as long as my point can be stated i dont see the issue. and you are 26 so you have 6years on my life but i stated at 2 you at 4 so that takes off two. so you have 4 years on me. also i dont see why people are lets say being rude? i never said that i dont like your games. we are all entitled to our opinions are we not?

I do. My first home console was Atari's Pong. I've played on all the home consoles released after that and owned most of them too. What older games lacked in visuals were made up by how tough they were.

lol of course the old way of making a game harder was done by speeding things up.

yeah like i love some of my older games taht would be in that area. im not extremely old just 20 so i have around the sega and nintendo time. so i have around 100 8bits or what not. but i just didnt like them as much. i see where some of them are better and then i also can see why they are not. and like i have said before its a opinion why should i get mad about something like that. i might say my opinion than hear theirs out. but shouting out at others i remember when i did that as a younger pup during halo2 and that didnt get me anywhere besides my father telling me to shut up lol

Well, part of why it is arranged that way is the ay the gameplay is focused more on turn based combat,so strategy is forefront instead of fast reaction time. The enemy simply cannot act until you complete your selections in the menus, so you have time to think it through, usually. So yeah, unless you have a preset plan of attack, rarely a good idea in PSIV, the fights are gonna take a few minutes.

A LOT of modern gaming spits in its face but, something must be said for the old style, it made a person have to consider strategy heavily.

On the matter of time?

About two more hours. I'm gonna go grab some more sleep here. Seeya'll ingame gang!

I'm pretty sure everyone's just shocked that you would turn down multiple eras of amazing games for simple reasons such as your age and voice acting. Games that some in these forums including myself can easily argue are much better than majority of the games released today with characters and storylines that far surpass modern gaming no matter how much voice acting is thrown in.

It's more of a "are you serious?" than ZOMG YOU CANT HAS YOUR OWN OPINION.

I have no clue what is going on in the convo as I just dropped in on your comment but personally I think voice acting is important and with a poor quality recording can diminish a games "feel". No matter how good the story, graphics, animation, etc... every aspect to a game matters. I can care less who voices who but as long as it can portray the character it is supposed to be then its perfectly fine.

WOw, 94 that bring's back the day's. That was on the tail end of SNES days since N64 was in 96, the Saturn was in 95 and PlayStation in 94. But yeah you could still get the older Consoles then for cheaper. It's just the Fad and market had completely moved on by 2 era's by then. Even tho You play'd them your era would of been with the better flashier game's of the time around 98 - 04. That would be the time period of the most influence to a person when it comes to gaming experience. later and it's mostly what the rig has and not so much on the gaming and anything before would of been little hazy or just wasn't caught up in it as much.

But yeah, like pikachief said "It's more of a "are you serious?" than ZOMG YOU CANT HAS YOUR OWN OPINION."

lol, Man this made me fell old all of the sudden. Since I remember playing on the tail end of the Atari 2600 day's with the Sega Mark III and Master System ( with daycare provider's children ) before I had gotten my NES but my era was the NES, Genesis and SNES ( with this one on the later year's ) time period's.

I miss those days, Game's had so much to them without the new flashy stuff of today. Oh well's, their still fun to play no matter when they are made.:)

Another 5-hour long maintenance tomorrow 8am-1pm JST to provide a fix for the NPC mess and Metalisolidum not dropping. still, these maintenances are getting silly

Is it really? People hack the server, SEGA schedule a maintenance. Is that really silly? Would you prefer they do nothing?
