Message: [QUOTE="rexfenix, post: 37773, member: 59898"] I enjoy the bombastic action direction, wouldn't know anything about optimization, and I sure as hell would give ANYTHING to go back to being a "young one". Here's a little rant of my own: my favorite games on the SNES is a little action mech shooter called ASSAULT SUITS VALKEN. Caps because the game is rad. Now, when they went on to make a sequel to that game, they turned it into a turn based Front Mission rip-off. It sucks. It absolutely blows. Now, I enjoy Front Mission (a game that got remade, along with the sequel, keeping its turn-based roots) but not exclusively because of the turn based system but rather the cool strategies you can pull off (as in, it actually uses the turn based system and terrain mechanics in an interesting way instead of turn based for the sake of being turn based) and also because how cool the world is. And still, my favorite Front Mission is still Gun Hazard, a game that is similar to Valken (made by the same people, even). In summary, sometimes change is good, sometimes it's not. What's important is, "is that change beneficial to the gameplay experience", "does it feel good", etc. I don't mind change as long as it makes for an enjoyable game. Rant over. But, I do understand when someone has attachments to certain games and mechanics. Hell, my post kinda proves the irony of it all and I'm well aware. Damn it. [/QUOTE]
