Okay, I'll bite.
What problemas are you having with the game specifically, OP?
Also, I think you're overreacting, it's not like /vr/ has a daily Mischief Makers general or something like that.
If you don't like it just stop playing it and go play something else, this threads just seems like bait.
Also, you're not emulating it right? Emulation for this game has always been so-so, and the control scheme is awkward on anything other than a N64 controller due to how the C buttons are used for the jets.

>> No.4716023

>>4716009
No not emulating.
The point of the thread is that there seem to be certain sacred cow games that get talked up.

If not often at the very least consistently praised when they ARE brought up.

The Mother series, Deus Ex, DKC, and a bunch of others, yes including Mischief Makers, seem to be unanimously loved.

I'm finding that I just can't stand MM and I was very disappointed. Not only disappointed but its weird feeling like I'm not getting something that I should be. I WANTED to like it. I bought the damn thing because I thought I would.

>> No.4716057

>>4716023
In the era of the internet, I don't think "sacred cows" exist anymore. I definitely have seen a LOT of hate toward the Mother games. I've also seen people say they didn't enjoy DKC or Deus Ex.
Specifically talking about Mischief Makers, there's definitely at least 1 person who dislikes it: the anti-Treasure guy.
But anyway, I don't even think that many people mention Mischief Makers, when people talk Treasure it's often to shitpost about the shooters.

Anyway, speaking strictly about the game, and not about how other people enjoy it or not, what about it you can't stand? What specific problems are you having with the game? I don't think you will like it at this point if you're played 2 worlds and still not enjoying it, but maybe we can come up with some conclusion.

Those are the most basic franchises every single kid loved back in the day. It's like saying, yeah I love The Beatles, Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, goes on.
With the exception of Spawn, which I see more as a late 90s edgy nu metal-era thing, all the others were franchises that were pretty big and popular virtually unanimously by every kid back in the late 80s and early 90s.
Still, I'd imagine Chad would be too busy playing football and fingering the cheerleaders rather than arguing about which toy line was better.

Same with Mischief Makers, the game is designed more about getting high scores rather than just finishing the game.
Sure, you can play the game from start to finish and don't give a fuck about score, but once you get a hang of the controls and how to exploit moves in order to do long jumps and boosts, that's when the real Mischief Makers starts, if you fuck up it's all your fault, the game is designed in a way that you can play on a string of moves that you have to do real quick and find the optimal route to finish the levels the quickiest way possible. It feels like doing a bunch of acrobatic/parkour stuff. I guess it's a game that encourage speedrunning, because in order to get an S you have to perform unexceptionally well, not even speedrunners get all S's in their runs.

really really like it, I dont play alot of platform games, has to be really good or unique. This one is more of an odd/unique one, with something new around every corner. I admit, the platforming in this game, especially with the n64 controller, can be a bit tricky/not as accurate as 16bit coutnerparts. But the game is really worth it.

Didnt pay attention to it, when it came out, the nintendo mag of my choice gave it 67%, because odd graphics and no 3D I guess.
