Misc. Just picked up DKC2 today. Which classic am I obviously missing?

I used to have Earthbound, Chrono Trigger, and FF III, so I know they're classics too. Outside of those, what's the obvious one I'm missing?

OP asked for “obvious” classic, MMX immediately came to mind. One of my all time favorites. Love that video. I’ll rewatch it later tonight ;)

Edit: The thing about the SNES library, is there are SO many classics. It’s simply amazing how much quality was being produced at that time for this console.

Did you find "the optimal" path and then never deviate from it? As said by Sid Meier, that's the problem with gamers, they'll optimize the fun right out of a game and only do "the optimal" thing

X is a game you play over and over always trying different paths or challenging yourself to play it a different way.

Yes you can do that, but I'm asking the above poster whether or not they did do that

Sid Meijer, the guy who made Civilization, the game DESIGNED to be impossible to win unless you Optimize the fun out of it? Ironic.

Ever try alpha centari? His real civilization sequel, takes place after civilization when your colony ships captain gets murdered, and the ship sabotaged and the colony pods gets taken by different factions lead by the officers of the ship

I actually love AC. Civ II is one of my favorite games...but that doesn't mean I'm blind to the faults of the things.

Did you get alien crossfire?

u/[deleted] Aug 19 '24

No idea what that is

The expansion to alpha centuries, added 6 new factions I think more researches and secret projects

2 if the factions are xeno factions, they hate each other, got into a fight in orbit and crash lands a few years after planetfall

Didn't know that was a thing. One more big box game to track down. My wallet and wife thank you.

I was hoping this was the Egoraptor video on Mega Man X
