A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

I strangely haven't been in the mood recently to play anything other than emulated NES/SNES-era games. I'm open to recommedations (yes, I already played CronoTrigger).

I assume you've already played Final Fantasy VI?

[–] ExtraMedicated@lemmy.world 3 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Actually I think I haven't played that one yet.

If you want the SNES emulation flavour I am a big fan of the Woolsey Uncensored romhack. So much of the 90s Final Fantasy charm (in the west) came from Woolsey's uniquely creative translations, and it's a shame to miss out on it in my opinion.

If you prefer the Pixel Remaster version there is a mod to use the Woolsey Uncensored script instead for that one too. I haven't tested that one personally but it could potentially be the best of both worlds if it works.
