I just bought a copy for my son and we're playing a barbarian amazon duo and just got
to act III.
I tried it a while back and it just felt clunky, this play through has been better..
It's a much harder game than I remember and some aspects of it really don't hold up
well. Chugging potions constantly isn't really a fun mechanic and I can say I didn't miss
it. Overall it's still a decent game.
Thinking about trying a mod for it. I looked at median XL and i don't think i liked the
style and it looks like it changes the way the game works.

Kingdom hearts

I know it’s unpopular but kingdom hearts 2 is my favorite game of all time. Nostalgia is
the main reason I played it as a kid and loved it.
permalink embed save parent report reply

[–] Your-brother-yes 7 points 4 hours ago

I just completed both of them very recently after buying the final mix versions. It
was the first time I've ever played them and I don't understand the hate for KH2, I
found it better than 1 in every single way.
I hear people say that KH1 story is better and even that I don't get, KH1 barely
even had a story from what I gathered, it mostly seemed like they had a gimmick of
final fantasy and Disney and no clear path for it.
kH2 on the other hand is when this turned into an actual storyline and I thought it
was great. (I can't comment on all the other games as I haven't played them.)
permalink embed save parent report reply

[–] speedchuck 3 points 2 hours ago

KH1 has more of a dark-souls kind of dodging and attacking bent to it. KH 2 is
more about managing combos and magic and such. That is, if you play in the
harder difficulties.
The first game has a simpler story that isn't bogged down in odd details. Light
versus dark. Losing faith in yourself makes you lose the keyblade. Strength of
the heart. Basic in the same way that Star Wars is basic. People like it for its

12/13/2018 Gamers of Reddit,what’s an old video game that you still play? : AskReddit

simplicity and heart, and the exploration that has you discovering the Disney
villains and princesses of heart, as well as encountering Riku.
KH2 is much more linear and leans heavily into exposition and story. Character
bloat, just a little, and revisits to each world that have a messy story to them
(scar's ghost, anyone). But the organization is interesting, Axel is great, Roxas is
great, and the ending (while not as bittersweet as the first) is cathartic,
especially after playing both games.
Gummi ship is better in the second game, easily.
I can see either side, having just played through both of them in the hardest
difficulty modes. They are both fantastic games. I might give the edge to
kingdom hearts one, as I liked the exploration, and magic abilities and stuff
opening new areas. KH2 just plops treasure chests everywhere, and you don't
have to do anything to get them.
I love both for different reasons. Thanks for giving me an opportunity to rant
about that.

I like the wii one and double dash as well but SNES one had a great Battle dynamic
especially that one where you could get a feather and jump into an area and just wait
cuz they would need to get a feather to get in with you and then try and ram you out.

My dad and I were huge into Quake and Quake 2 was the first thing that my dad and I
lied to mom about together. We used to sneak away on a Saturday and play it at my
dad's office. Mom hated video games growing up and our home computer was for
"education only".
Wed tell her we were going to run errands and then frag eachother and my dad's co-
workers. 1997 was a magical year.

I played from the release through to at least Omens of War. Then I took a many year

Some years ago, I tried to back to play EQ Live and found that the game I used to love
was a bit different. Then I discovered private servers. I've been a member of the Project
https://old.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/a5trui/gamers_of_redditwhats_an_old_video_game_that_you/ 19/25
12/13/2018 Gamers of Reddit,what’s an old video game that you still play? : AskReddit

1999 server since 2009 (according to the creation date of my forum account). Project
1999 tries to emulate what EQ was with just the base game, Ruins of Kunark, and
Shards of Velious expansions unlocked. It does a very good job and is a full on nostalgia
train from the minute you log in. You start in your starter city, with all the base models
and old aesthetics, and are given no hand outs. It is real, classic, Everquest, and I love
it.
I recommend giving this server a shot to anyone who played back in the day and miss
the classic experience. You might remember why you are grateful for the way games are
made today or you might fall in love all over again.

I guess they may now be considered as old games, but I haven't played any games more
recent than Skyrim. I keep recycling through Fallout 3 and New Vegas, the Mass Effect
Series, and Skyrim since about 2010.
There are a lot that I want to play, but I just haven't gotten around to doing everything I
want to in these games. Partly I don't have time to play all that much and have stopped for
months at a time given school or work commitments or health problems, but yeah. I'm
about 8-10 years behind the curve.

Two big ones, and then one that I really don't consider "old" but some might.
First, Castlevania (The first one, NES). I actually didn't like this game growing up. The
locked jump arc, and knock back on damage made certain parts frustrating for me. Despite
this, I felt compelled to revisit it every couple of years. This past year I decided to look up a
speed run and now that I actually understand the game, it's amazingly addictive.
The second is Donkey Kong Country 2. Easily my favourite game of all time, despite not
having grown up with a Super Nintendo. I first played this game well into my teenage years
on the GBA port/remake, and then ended up getting it on the Wii Virtual Console later on.
Finally, and this one I REALLY don't consider old, despite it being 17 years ago, is Super
Smash Brothers Melee. The game that literally shaped my life in pretty much every way.
