Honestly I haven't played a game that was actually worth $60. My pile of mapgames got several hundred hours between them though so I guess they were. They were like $80 a piece all together including DLC.

no video game is worth $60.

Secret of Mana was well worth that with the included multitap adapter back in the day.

This is not the way to go about getting a wizard staff named after the Imp Zone in the game.

I had a similar experience but with the sequel. We then tried Secret of Mana and it wasn't as fun.

Are we talking Legend of Mana or the one that never got a Western release? Because both of those are really good and I can see why playing SoM after those would do that.

The crafting system in LoM drove us nuts though.

Sorry Seiken Densetsu 3 I meant and yeah we were probably expecting the same experience in Secret of Mana.

Man I want to play a Secret of Mana game again.

game looks good. 44 thread's barely readable because it's all one dude pretending to be an unpaid dev but i preordered a while back + am stoked

This ^. I backed it on kickstarter, but cannot stand going into the thread in games because of this one loving guy who insists on writing lengthy sperg-fest posts about technical minutiae. Jesus guy, make your own drat RPG.

i gave them 35 bux for this and i hope it's good. i haven't read anything about it though, because the thread in games makes me want to die and while i'm sure the posts they put up on their ks page is very informative and thought provoking on the nature of world building and game design or w/e i'd prefer to just experience that stuff as presented in the game

i have shadowrun which is a unity kickstarted game and it's just okay, so i don't know, i guess i'll just have to wait and see but my expectations are pretty neutral but hopeful.

I am eagerly awaiting his inevitable review where he claims "This would have been GOTY IF ONLY THEY LISTENED TO ME". There is almost 0% chance he will enjoy it after obsessing over a beta release of a video game for nearly a year. I feel bad for Ropekid, who must have to deal with hundreds of these guys on a daily basis.

While I feel like criticism is good and that it has helped PoE become better because god drat did early beta suck donkey dick, this guy has made it into his job despite getting paid literally nothing for it. In fact, he has paid them for the privilege of it all. So I dunno what gives but he should give it a break for a while.

i looked at the official poe forums once and saw like 5 topics entitled "Sensuki's ideas for x game mechanic" and "Sensuki's ideas for y game mechanic" or whatever. like really, you're referring to yourself in the third person in order to give your many, many threads a name brand
