asura's wrath is a work of art
momiji is the best doa girl
fire emblem's difficulty stems mostly from bad game design
people who like daisy are psychopaths

ffx is good but not the best
30fps is fine
chrono cross is good but flawed, as long as you pretend it has nothing to do with CT
the name ephemeral fantasia sounds familiar but I have not played it
sonic is bad except for the chao garden and some of the music

other stuff I'm not familiar with or don't have a strong opinion on

I just got a 144hz freesync monitor recently and I really don't think I could go back.
It's so smooth.

pokemon after rse are lame
ninja gaiden sigma 1 and 2 are still very good action games
shadow hearts 3 and wild arms 5 have the best turn based jrpg battle systems
wei > wu > shu
diagonal arrows for dance games (pump it up) are better than up/down/left/right (ddr)

Only 1 through 3 and then 10 through whatever number we are at now.

Theres a nugget of genuinely great challenging fire emblems in there!!

Chrono Cross really was the biggest disappointment after Chrono Trigger. And then the ds and psx versions of Chrono Trigger mixing some of it in is nauseating.

I definitely started to play Ephemeral Fantasia, but it was aggressively stupid. I can't actually remember why except that the main character is named Mouse and it's the dumbest name ever. Clearly it was so bad I blocked out the memories.

chrono cross is bad even without the context of it being CT's sequel

ephemeral fantasia is a shit game but it will remain in my mind the very first time i realized games had boob physics

30fps is not ideal obviously but totally playable as long as it's consistent

daisy lovers are weirdos

ctr is fine but the true list is SASRT > double dash > mk8 > dkr > ctr

i am giving fe another chance with shadows of valentia, though i understand it's really not representative of the actual rest of the series. I'll play PoR eventually as my last opportunity for classic fe to impress me

This really depends on the game. For a really cinematic games like The Last of Us or something like Bloodborne where all the inputs are really deliberate or even a turn-based game like an RPG, yeah 30 fps isn't objectively detrimental to the game, but it's definitely losing points on the presentation side and it will obviously feel much less smooth/pleasant to play.

For action games like Bayonetta, shooters, fighting games and platformers, you're actively making an inferior product, a less responsive game and a worse experience for the player. (Because inputs are polled half as often, the game flat out takes longer to respond to a button press and it results in a fairly obvious sluggish feeling compared to 60 fps gameplay.)

TLDR frame rate is super important to some genres and not as much to others, but seriously guys its 2018 utilize the hardware we have to make legitimately well-made games, not needlessly cinematic/pretty ones.

98% of my gaming has come from a console, where I assume almost all games are 30fps, and I turned out okay.

There were probably games I played on those consoles that ran at 60fps and I couldn't tell you the difference.

The vast majority of SNES games are 60fps.

30fps is fine in the way that a well maintained 15 year old car is fine. It gets you where you need to go, absolutely. But it's silly to act like nobody should expect better when the technology exists and is affordable.

Pretty sure SNES and NES games ran at 60 (the refresh rate of your tv)
Also CoD on consoles ran at 60, which was important for their success

I played a bit of Ephemeral Fantasia. I didn't get very far, mainly because every square inch of the map is a maze and that didn't make me happy.

I find it amazing that the "bad" FEs are all of the amazingly reviewed and popular ones too

I've only played POR and I loved it. Though I will admit sometimes the difficulty can be weird. Its almost Valkryia Chronicles level where you have to die first before you get the hang of a level (or I guess its the other way around, huh?)

its supposed to get "worse" ?

After PoR the games don't have difficulty anymore, so yeah kinda worse.

I think fire emblem games are still fun without difficulty but I'd kill for another Thracia 776 experience.

Newer games have difficulty it's just poorly designed difficulty. Like Lunatic on Awakening is way harder than PoR but it's harder for dumb reasons.

I think Fates/Conquest is actually decent in that regard though. I wouldn't say there's a huge difference in difficulty between that game and PoR and it's not degenerate like Awakening is.

It's not Thracia 776 but neither is PoR.

If frame rate isn't super important to the game then it would be stupid to make the game half as detailed just to reach 60fps. There's a lot you can do with literally double the processing time per frame.
