    Gaming Series Template Advice

    Hey guys, this will be my 4th topic, and last time I spoke about a game series I'm making called "nostalgia goggles". The episodes within it will take a lot of time and love, but I want to make a mini let's play series alongside it. I have a basic template for an idea, but it's generally in need...

    Nostalgia Goggles

    Trust me, Super Mario 64 is one of THE worst games from gaming past. It's aged so very badly. my review only covers a few issues, but there are loads of different issues with said title which just are so bad. Literally a game where nostalgia lies to the player. Especially when competing games...

    Nostalgia Goggles

    Super Mario 64 is the first episode in question so far. I've written a few drafts so far, and I'm going to try to avoid spoilers, though I will say it at the very least hasn't aged very well. The review focuses more on competing games on the market as a fair comparison of a good or bad game...

    Nostalgia Goggles

    You accused somebody of being wrong with an opinion and about an opinion. Comment to me how disgusted you are all you like; I can only wish you all the best in your apparent end to this conversation. I for one feel you address people poorly and advise you respect others in future. In the same...

    Then you both constructed opinions on the grounds of wrong and right. Still doesn't make my point any less valid.

    Nostalgia Goggles

    You can't judge an opinion on the grounds of wrong or right. What may be great to you, will not be great for some. I find it hard to get along with narrow minds; this person is fine to say he didn't like Morrowind just as you're fine to think the opposite. Always remember that at the end of the...

    Nostalgia Goggles

    Nostalgia isn't necessarily time based, it's more of an association with the memories you have of playing that game, and often it's a feeling which obscures an opinion which would otherwise be formed more fairly on a competing product. Like let's say, Banjo Kazooie versus mario 64, both similar...

    Nostalgia Goggles

    I got that game recently... It's making me chuckle a little bit that's for sure, but over all the game isn't really doing that much for me. I think without the humour the game would fall apart.

    Nostalgia Goggles

    Wish I could get ahold of a ram cartridge so I could actually play that golden Majura's Mask Cartridge. There is a reason why that particular game is probably as good as people say, and it's the fact that the N64 alone can't run the bleedin' thing without an add on XD On that note though, it'll...

    Nostalgia Goggles

    Just this alone is topic for an episode of nostalgia goggles, I recently bought an N64, and I feel like there's every reason to make videos about it since I have literally ZERO nostalgia with the system.

    Nostalgia Goggles

    Nostalgia; in gaming terms it's often noted as a feeling which blinds us to a games true features and mechanics in exchange for the feelings we associate with it in general. I'm currently writing a few episodic reviews on games which challenge me to walk outside of my own nostalgia, and I felt...

    Poll: OST Localization Ruins Games

    I feel that being conscious of art or design being changed is a little counter productive if this is the case though. I know at the end of the day games are a business and have to have certain practices to support this; but techincally art IS a business too, and sells for ridiculous amounts, and...

    Poll: OST Localization Ruins Games

    I get where you're coming from mate. It's understandable too. I can genuinely relate all the same with dragonball GT especially. Canada's ocean dub was better than the standard funimation dub, though funimation have recently redubbed to the original soundtrack after fans complained which was a...

    Poll: OST Localization Ruins Games

    This is a seriously good point, it indicates that it is very "type of person" specific and has opened my eyes up a fair bit. I'd like to say it's all about how passionate you are about something as to how much it matters, but please understand I am not suggesting that you lack any form of...
