Yes, but how many games can we point to without sadistic level design for lengths sake until like, LttP?
I'm not complaining, I grew up in the age of sadistic levelHESHECANTHOPETOBEATTHIS design but yeah it's why I'm not fuckin around on the NES/SNES emu shit Nintendo puts out. And my older sister and my pops (the one I dont talk to) was miiiiiiillllleeeessss better at these than I was. I cant even fuck with platformers anymore to be honest, dead genre for me
Super mario 3 and world, any kirby game.. I'll get back to you.
