redeeming qualities in otherwise painfully unmderwhelming games

[Kalahari Inkantation]

Phantom Hour**ass is a resounding disappointment all around. (Yes, I am still mad.)

perhaps most depressingly, its """music""" is the ABSOLUTE shittiest in the entire zleda series:

And yet, to its credit... it also happens to have the very best rendition of the Fairy Fountain theme in any Zelda, ever.

[Samus Aran]

music is kind of a cop out because i can think of tons of bad or mediocre games that have great music tbh

[Kalahari Inkantation]

(also i could post a lot of sonic stuff tbh lmao)


also, an obvious example for something i know you've played, tec: zelda 2's palace theme is one of the best songs in the entire franchise, but let's not pretend that it's a good game. i'll allow it to be called mediocre, but nothing more positive than that.

Red Dead Revolver for influencing Rock* to go on and create Red Dead Redemption and Red Dead Redemption II

Zelda related.

Skyward Sword has a pretty kickass final boss, and also one of the cutest Zeldas.

[Mando Pandango]

It also has Groose

i said this in the 52 games thread but the art direction of Scorn was very nice (and creep and gross). that's the only nice thing i can say about it lol
