The Fallout fans are missing out.
Final Fantasy fans are right to skip 2, but 1 can be fun. I'd much rather play 1 than 8.
Ugh misread your comment and went on a fallout 2 rant. Woops. Totally agree with you! The early fallout games were excellent, and i think the only good one since the IP got picked up is new Vegas
By TSE do they mean TES. That'd still be weird considering I think more people would have had either Skyrim or Oblivion be their first entry, and not Morrowind
Yeah but even dedicated elder scrolls fans aren't going to go back and play through arena and daggerfall. Morrowind definitely feels old but from my perspective still feels very playable and understandable from a modern context. Daggerfall and arena are a different beast entirely and are a little more intimidating for the average gamer.
Thats a fair point! I've loved every entry of TES since Morrowind, yet I've never felt the urge to play Daggerfall or the first, and I dont think I ever will
I actually like Final Fantasy 2.
I have an irrational fondness for it. The stat leveling mechanic is real double-edged sword, though.
Unless we're talking about 2/4 (with Cecil as the main character), in which case that one's just an absolute banger, no notes.
I liked FF1. It's actually one of my favorite nes games.
Are you using the US or the Japanese numbering? US 2 was pretty good. Japanese 2 was still super early and closer to 1, so not very complex. I found that one to be fairly dull.
FF1 was actually the only one I almost finished.
Dunno about Yakuza but sounds fine for all but warcraft. World of ruined the franchise for me. I just wanted more of the same. Also I thought persona was part of megami tensei.
Only if you don't count the Kiwamis as the first two.
I feel like the odd one out, i prefer most of the early games, FF1, GTA2, Warcraft 1+2, Farcry 1+2
I have played the first and second witcher games! I am sure that the first one has a lot of good stuff but all I really took away was that it was weird relative to modern games and it took a lot of willpower to finish. The second game is bad fucking ass! Buuuut the difficulty scaling and overall pacing is a bit odd. For example you can play on a relatively high difficulty and the base gameplay is very reasonable and fun but the bosses are just absolutely batshit and you'll get stuck in a loop where youre dying about 2.5 seconds after reloading endlessly edit: and if you haven't played 3 youre missing out! It is super fun and playing on death march is actually really rewarding and fun
The Witcher 1 is a pretty standard CRPG styled like the original Baldur's Gate, Neverwinter Nights, Knights of the Old Republic, etc, and all essentially running a modified Dungeons and Dragons ruleset behind the scenes.
It probably did feel a little dated because it simply was dated, even for 2007 and with some of the changes they made to keep things interesting.
However, they did show boobies, so, you know.
I recently played final fantasy 1 pixel remaster and its pretty dope. If you're a big FF fan I recommend it.
The OG Yakuza 1 and 2 may be dated but I enjoyed their Kiwami remakes.
Came here to say this. Yakuza Kiwami was my introduction to the franchise and I liked it quite a bit
Everything except The Witcher, Shin Megami and Yaluza I am a fan of because of the first 2 games.
The Witcher 3 I skipped out on because the first 2 were jank as fuck and I couldn't actually finish either of them despite thinking the ideas and story were rad. It wasn't until way later I gave it a shot and it was definitely a better game than the first 2, but the combat got super stale after 20 hours and that's not even like 1/5th of the story.
I don't know why I never got into Persona or his other games. Just never tickled me. 🤷🏻♂️
Yakuza I only recently found to be awesome with Lost Judgement.
My friends usually wanted to hang out at my house because I was the only one with a PC and the only way they could ever check out shit like Fallout and Diablo.
jokes on them, i actually played gta and witcher early titles at least on this list. if baldurs gate is included, i at least played the dark alliance spinoff
Not true for Final Fantasy. They made a prequel/sidequel of FF1 called Strangers of Paradise, and it was actually really good.
