Gaming Confession Booth

[Mephikun]

- I am a huge Hyperdimension Neptunia fan, yet I've never played either of the games.

This is just silly

I plan on getting the first one soon, just don't have the cash atm.

I couldn't get into Cave Story.

Had to get that out there. lol. The Metroidvania style is one of my top favorites, but I tried playing Cave Story twice over the years... more recently I got an hour or two in the newer + edition or whatever when it was up for the Humble Bundle, but yeah. Didn't really grab me.

I might be alone on this one.

I never got into the Final Fantasy series. I tried. I really did. I just dont like it.

The weird thing is that I really liked Chrono Trigger...

Its OK I am the same way. Even though I own a lot of them, I am actually NOT a big fan of Final fantasy and Chrono Trigger is one of my favorite games of all time.....

I'm starting to enjoy the cutscenes in Spider-Man games.

I consider Cave Story to be the bare minimum of a Metroidvania. It doesn't feel like one at all.

My other confession:
I am laughably horrible at fighting games. Including Super Smash Bros.

For some reason, I am never able to get timing and priority right, ever. I read all the guides, talk to people who are good at it, but I still suck ass. Never won a single online match of Street Fighter IV (except once, against a guy who literally did nothing but spam one of Zangeifs combos over and over again.)

I once spent a few hours trying to get good at Astra Superstars. Then a friend of mine (who does not play fighters) came over and played a few matches with me. I lost all of them.

I really want to like fighting games, but I've never gotten past the medium difficulty threshold.

I actually find Super Mario 64 over rated (not its influence though, just game in general).

If you played it when it came out, you'd see how good it is. If you've played lots of other 3D platformers its release, of course one of the pioneers may not hold up as good today.
It's like someone who grew up playing the PS1 Final Fantasy series going back to try the NES version.

I don't get fighting games either. You just memorize a bunch of moves. Then you fight the same few characters in the same few arenas over and over.
