Sorry I consider you a friend regardless if you like it or not.

I have to say, the friendly banter happening in this thread is really wholesome :3

This was never the happiest place ever, gaming forums never are, but the last week or so it got pretty bad in my opinion and even reading isn't that entertaining anymore.

And to be honest, if I had read the forum before installing the test version back then, I'm not sure I would have ever tried the game! I'm used to OFs having a negative vibe (ESO says hello...), but this one is a bit of a dumpster fire.
Maybe the mods use it as a social experiment?

Anyway, was thinking about older games today that I'm really fond of and would deserve some kind of remake/remaster/re-release to get more attention than they got back then.
1. Terranigma on the Super Nintendo, sadly is not available anywhere outside of shady ROM sites. I'm glad I still have my physical copy! Iirc that one wasn't released outside Japan/Europe?
2. Legend of Dragoon on PS1, loved that one and still have my copy. Sadly it didn't sell well so the sequel was axed, but seems to be seen as a cult classic today and is quite rare.
3. Lost Odyssey on Xbox360, not that old but great game with an interesting story and has Final Fantasy vibes all over it for obvious reasons.

Do you also have old games you're nostalgic about?

Whenever I play Vampire Survivors, mostly because the characters look like Castlevania characters.

I really blame the moderators for the current state of the forums. They used to be far stricter and I have friends who were permabanned just for using a four lettered word in a post.

Now, we have habitual trolls using multiple accounts to sock puppet. The moderators need to start throwing permanent bans out like candy. Until then, the forums will continue to be a dumpster fire.

Spy vs Spy, The Legend of Zelda, Metroid, Star Fox, and The Secret of Mana are the games I'm most nostalgic about. I also miss arcade games like Tempest.

Bought and have been playing Dokapon Kingdom Connect with friends. It's Board game meets JRPG. Really fun game, but it has the same friendship destroying power as Mario Party.

Ghosts and Goblins for N.E.S. Soooo many deaths in that game.

There are companies out there that will make a physical copy of that translated version of a game if you want. You can pick the cartridge color and everything.

Such examples being Seiken Densetsu 3 or Sweet Home.
