@anima I don't remember. It might've just been that I lost interest playing the game. It wasn't bad for a Zelda title though.
-
@anima Newbananass can't triforce tho
-
@anima Epik maymays do not make a bad game good
-
@anima @redenchilada Actually yeah, Wind Waker is maybe the one game in the saga where it is most clear where you need to go next.
-
@anima That was one of the ones I tried to play
-
@anima I've tried to play three or four Zeldas and never found the second dungeon in each
-
@anima Windwaker HD's already been out for a while.
-
@anima I like the Wii U too, but the console in and of itself is actually sound. It's suffered in sales but now it has a decent library that's only growing and has made it completely worth getting, especially once Mario Kart 8 comes out the end of this month and Smash comes out this Winter.
-
@anima That has nothing to do with why I don't like Steam
-
@anima The Wii U most definitely has had more sales than ET. That's not even funny.
-
@anima Valve is nice, even if I don't like Steam.
-
@anima Regardless, both had a big impact on the industry.
-
@anima Pretty much any game ever produced had better sales compared to ET.
-
@anima ET for the Atari also changed the game industry.
-
@anima Most of the dedicated watchers are 11-15, you still have pretty much everyone >15 actively playing, and a fair portion of the 11-15 group in the second category too.
-
@anima IT's bad compared to games released in the same year, and years before.
-
@anima I never liked OoT or Zelda in general. It's the epitome of lack of guidance in a game, and not in a fun way.
-
@anima I'd say a portion of the gaming industry customers will split and focus on watching others play, whilst a big portion will remain playing.
-
@anima Look man I have some N64 games I like too but Crash Bandicoot > Super Mario 64 in every way and you won't tell me otherwise
-
@anima SM54 sucked
-
@anima ooo 3DO. That's where the first Need For Speed came out. Called "the need for speed"
-
@anima No, I meant two separate trends, with the people in each sometimes overlaping.
-
@anima You have horrible taste in retro games then. Get a Genesis, scrub
-
@anima That's why I said it's a split generation.
-
@anima But do you have a Dreamcast?!
-
@anima Well Germany was split in two in the arcade era, so that explains why it skipped the first generation. People had more important things to deal with.
-
@anima i was born 1995 and basically everything I have an interest in is from before that year. Like DOS and the NES.
-
@anima I'd consider "gaming generations" to be more related to technology stages and mainstream design concepts than to actual generations as defined by sociology. The three generations I listed are defined by the games they played. The first one played in the 80s in arcades, the atari systems and early pcs like the Amiga; the second one played with consoles like the NES/Famicom, SNES and Sega genesis, N64 and PS1 as well as computers, defined by challenging and complex games meant for one player or split screen multiplayer; and the third generation played in computers and modern consoles, with a trend focused on online multiplayer and forgiving and fluid game designs.
-
@anima Oh, right, they count a generation as 30 years instead of 20 today.
