Here's one; for anyone else, has there ever been a retro game you really wanted to play, but then when you finally got to try it, you've found it underwhelming?
Was thinking about this recently, because I got to play Beyond Oasis/Story of Thor on my RG351M, a game I've wanted to play since the Megadrive games but never had the opportunity. I'd been told it was something of a Zelda-type experience, but with fighting gameplay by some of the Streets of Rage developers; however, whilst I accept it might dramatically improve once you get into it, the first hour seems really underwhelming. The world is really plain and the story almost nonexistent. It just feels surprisingly basic.
It makes me wonder if the Saturn sequel was any good, too.
Has anyone here had a similar experience? (and will anyone defend Story of Thor? )
