Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “What Game Should be Revived?”.
If you could have one game series, that’s been dead for a long time, get a sequel. What would it be pilot wings? That’S a pretty good one. Actually I like that response. I played the crap out of pilot Wings H this the Super Nintendo one, not the N64 one.
Oh apparently there was one for 3DS. Okay that I actually didn’t know see. I don’t know I want to be what was it a did? They say: reboot, sequel, sequel, yeah pilot Wings. Actually doesn’t really it’s not really sequel fod. What are they going to do? Add more flight instructors like second Tony, like I, I don’t yeah. I don’t really know.
Okay. Let’S, let me think, let me think, let me think, maybe something maybe something else Fallout New Vegas, but by the team that made Fallout New Vegas, not Bethesda, Fallout to Vegas got him because I’m kind of uh, I think I think Bethesda lost their credit. Elijah says: portal: three: okay, controversial, take portal, two, a good sequel, not even close to as good as portal.
One yeah, I think, sequel though I think it’s a different game. No, it’s not it’s the same game! That’S the problem! I had exactly the same problem with Portal 2 that I had with Zelda. Tear of the kingdom was like the sense of the sense of I was never. You were never going to be able to recapture that sense of of joy and wonder and discovery that the first game had because it was inherently because it’s inherently impossible. It takes place in the exact same environment, effectively different game, same game. I think they’re different games. My favorite part about Portal 2 was that you could Co-op that’s fair, but maybe you had friends so I and – and I I wanted to play with Ivonne, but she gets motion sick playing Portal when she goes through the portals, especially the the like momentum based ones. Like and puzzles she she can’t she will actually throw up if she tries to play portal yeah.
I guess two or three more topics uh well hold on. We haven’t actually figured out a game that needs a sequel. Yet I want a PS1 game made by square called Ein Hond to have a sequel. Oh did you ever play that? No, it’s a it’s like a sidescrolling shooter, but I want a sequel to PO poy.
It’S a good choice. Did you play poo? I think so again, I’m bad with names, so this is poo. It’S like a it’s like a weird isometric sort of top down like Arena. Brawler thing um, absolutely not! Oh yeah! No po po is sick here here here here. Okay, here we go here. We go so.
This is what a typical. Why am I not able to okay there we go. This is what a typical map might look like. So here’s your characters and you could like pick up, rocks and logs and bombs and Huck them at each other. Uh. There’S a game for Android called bomb squad.
That’S actually kind of cool and kind of like this, but I don’t know po po just had this like Jank vibe that I always really liked. Okay, oh man, dang it. It doesn’t need a sequel though. Okay, crap um, fine Final Fantasy Tactics needs an actual sequel there. All all mine, I think, are just like. I want another game in this line, but not made by the company that currently has the rights to make it. Oh, like I want a Halo game not made by 343 right. I want a Fallout game or a sky or a uh Elder Scrolls game or a Starfield base game at this point not made by Bethesda.
I want like I I that that’s most of my desire is the the company that currently owns it is is not in good graces with me at least um, but games I would throw out for would be probably like SL, despire and FTL. I think both of those both of the companies behind those games are trying to move on creatively to other types of things. Um, and I would really like if they just made another version of what they already made. But I understand why they probably just want to move on because they’re very small teams, um they’re Indie teams and they’re – probably more driven by the creativity of making games than just the the money.
So they don’t want to just cash in on sequels. But I would definitely buy them if they did what about another Starcraft, but not by blizzard yeah, see like that’s, that’s. Okay! I got. I got one, you love! You love ano, 1800, whoops, that’s not the one Starcraft, but by the people that did ano.
Oh uh. No, no oh yeah. No, the Theo developers are fantastic yeah. They should make actually, yes, they actually made ano in space, and I think it’s widely considered to be one of the worst ones.
That’S what put me off of ano. That’S where I started and you’re like you’re like get 1,800 and I bought 1,800 immediately. I started what do you think and I’m like Okay, I uh I need to limit myself nice. I was immediately taken aback about how like the quality of life stuff for drawing roads and like you, can drag to produce buildings in a Big Grid, and it was just yep City.
Skyline Dev should probably have have p played ano, it’s like once so good dude, and they do such a good job. Now, with the with the NPC, like constantly talking you abely. Second, you have six different things. You could be doing right now.
I I played it for, for maybe 20 minutes 30 minutes something like that, and I could just immediately see why you are obsessed with it. Yeah, it’s good taste, good, taste, yeah, it’s so good! It’S such a good game! What? If we, what if we? What if we bring back after party – and we do a three player co-op ano – is this going to cut into Super checks time, I’m sure we could do both? Well, I mean I always have some stuff to do after when so you could do super checks while we get set up for that interesting. Oh here’s. The problem, though boys – I don’t think you can really do an ano session, that shorter than a couple of hours and get realistically anything done so wow typically runs for anywhere from 3 to 4 hours. Super check’s time is like 45 minutes to an hour at this point. If we do a best of five and Luke actually manages toing win, one which I mean In fairness doesn’t happen that often hey and then, if we add two hours of ano, we’re we’re we’re.
Not going to leave the office till Monday morning, we might as well just stay here. Well, you could go home on Mondays, cuz, you don’t work and then that’ll be fine. Oh man, uh, okay, yeah I’ve got people saying Supreme Commander, there’s, definitely some spiritual, spiritual successors in the works, yep yep yeah and I think the forged Alliance forever Community has actually done a great job of keeping Supreme Commander relevant uh. You know it’s it’s kind of like how you don’t really need a sequel to I don’t know. What’S an example of a game that has kind of stayed, um stayed relevant to its core audience, even if it’s kind of Niche okay, Eve online, do you need an eve too, or has Eve evolved EV evolved enough that it can just still be Eve, and it Can just be Eve forever hasn’t played in a long time um. So I don’t know if I’m the right voice for this, but I’m gon na do it anyways um, I think Eve is fine. Um Kemo Bob says Super Mario RPG, and I actually wouldn’t disagree with that. The the recent remake, which, by the way, looks incredible – I’m actually not buying it, just because I, by chance I I replayed Super Mario RPG, like two months before the announcement came out.
Like I didn’t, I didn’t know, I was just like man, you know what was awesome. Super Mario RPG, I’m going to play it because um Emily saw one at um at Willow, video actually Luke and was like hey. I know you love this game. Um. Do you want one, it’s a good price and I was like yeah sure, and then it was just sitting on my shelf staring at me and I was like well I’m. Obviously, I’m not going to put it in a Super Nintendo to play it because that’s just completely backwards at this point, I’m going to play it on something else with an emulator, because I have places to be um, and so I you know I wasn’t going to Play the actual cartridge, but I’m sitting here going what I’m going to pay like $ 150 for this game or whatever it was, I’m not going to just I’m not going to play the stupid thing.
No damn it I’m going to play it so uh, so so so I played it so I seeing how faithful the Remake is. Is both uh really exciting to me, because I love that they did, that I love that they didn’t with it right. It was a masterpiece, is a masterpiece and if they had gone and like just arbitrarily changed it, I I I I think they could have lost what made it so special. But then I’m also disappointed because I don’t need to play it right now and everyone’s all hyped about Super Mario RPG and I kind of just wish it was Super Mario RPG to because I I want some new content to enjoy.
So I um I I do think with how much hype there is around this game, uh that it feels likely that they, you know, might that might be what that developer is already working on or something I don’t. I don’t know, I don’t actually know who did the adaptation for them or, if they’re, even a Nintendo internal team um. I think someone knows and posted it some point, but I don’t know um. So I I’d love to see that happen.
Nutshell. I know the Mario series is like kind of a spiritual successor to it, but yeah new new Super Mario RPG man that’d be super cool. I liked Paper, Mario, I I played quite a bit of Paper, Mario back in the day. I don’t remember what ones but multiple Paper Mario games I played and enjoyed.
They were fun. Uh lucky Drive, yes, um! There’S a really good multiplayer hockey game. It’S called slapshot rebound it’s free to play. It’S really fun. You don’t have to buy any of the Cosmetics. You can have a really excellent experience without paying for anything, uh lots of fun.
Very funky controls that I wish you luck. Yeah yeah, it’s tough, but it’s fun. .
