Exploration in that game is driving around an empty and barren area that is copy and pasted like 26 times. The story of most of the side quests are cool, but the act of engaging in those quests is bad.

The extra planets were boring and pretty annoying, but their method of "fixing" it in ME2 was to just remove planet exploration all together and have you scan them instead. Wouldn't call it an improvement.

I agree it's not a solution, but imo I would rather they get rid of sidequests entirely rather than ever do that shit from 1 again, so I honestly think it was a lot better. You lose that feeling of exploration, but at least they were tolerable.

Actraiser?


Absolutely.

Completely did away with the sim elements.

People saying Mass Effect why?

ME2 was a lot better.

They're both much worse than DS1.

nah, besides how the world connects in DaS, DaS3 is superior in pretty much every capacity - gameplay, bosses, armor and weapon variety, npcs,and so on

-super monkey ball 2 wasn't as good as the first super monkey ball
-lost levels is a more obnoxious version of mario 1, but mario 2 on the other hand is a pretty great game
-the actual rankings of the two games are debatable, but it's undeniable that gex 2 threw out almost everything that mechanically made the original unique in favor of a contemporary 3d collectathon incarnation

Danganronpa 2 was great, but I liked the first just a little more. The story was more convoluted in 2, the cast was slightly worse, and they didn't let you walk around in 3D like in the first one
