Bahahaha. That’s amazing, considering a game in 1995. But yeah, I agree there are other games that explore this trope, but for sure FC4 was the most recent that came to mind.

The suddenly anti-climactic end to that got a good chuckle out of me. Definitely sounds like what this game is going with haha.

Oooh true, that’s another good one. Didn’t think of that.

Sounds like they took a page from the Far Cry 4 book, where you can beat the game at the beginning if you just wait for Pagan Min to come back.

Not her in particular, but the boss banning cultural head-garbs is an affront in general, not necessarily to this particular employee.

I think JRPGs hold up for precisely what you pointed out - They were never shallow games in comparison to the games around them, and so they still hold up because other games are getting to the depth we’ve had from JRPGs for years already in terms of quality content and story.

Haha. I was briefly reminded of some of those games when PS Battle Allstars came out (I’m so sad that game wasn’t better. I mean the fighting was fun enough, but man it could have done with more DLC characters, or SOMETHING) but I’d forgotten about some of those until just now. PS1 was a great era.

I never said it was a hidden one by any means, just that it was one hell of a game, but it was certainly a long time ago since it was popular so I’m surprised more people remembered it.

Goddamnit. Now I want a Wave Race Wii U.

I’m with you on all of the above. Simple to get around, sure, but like I said, shouldn’t have to. Is the game an outright disaster? Probably not, but being that there is no clear way to get the game to use the right input method, that’s pretty frustrating for the average end-user. Not everyone is us. It’s stuff like…

I am now, especially now that I’ve gotten so many wonderful replies about the game. Speaks volumes about the community willing to get other people into it.

The simplicity of getting around the problem with outside software has absolutely zero bearing on the quality of the port - It’s still a problem for something (remapping buttons) that should be trivial to work properly on a port in 2016. Is it too much to ask that a port get more than a “it booted up on Windows…

LOL we both posted about Jetmoto at the same time. I feel better about recognizing this now.

The vehicle design reminds me of the PS1 game JetMoto. While I realize a good bit of that game was on land, there was some maps with water on it too :P

Very good to know. Thanks so much for this thorough breakdown!

How cool would it be to work for Starfleet though!?

No need to apologize! Thanks for the helpful information! I’m even more interested now! And thanks for the info about how it works, and also about the skins.

I’d agree to most of those - except I work in a place that allows hats and religious/cultural headwear, so, there are definitely some outliers.

Very cool. I’ll have to check it out later then. What about alternate skins for heroes? Are those cash only (like how LoL handles it?)

I definitely have played (and enjoyed) Diablo. Is unlocking new heroes cash only, or does it happen fairly often within the game too?
