Superman 64 was a hell of a mess

[–] MegaUltraChicken@lemmy.world 21 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Seconding this one. I was like 11 years old and it's the first time I can remember being disappointed when getting a game. Went from like Mario 64 to OOT to Banjo to Superman 64 and hoo boy what a drop off.

Same for me. It was my first flop I played and boy was it bad.

You didn't like flying through 150 rings?

[–] Odo@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

There are way more rings than that, and they're actually the best parts of the game. It gets so much worse in the levels without rings. Awful combat, terrible puzzles, inconsistent framerate, and thoroughly unclear objectives.

Oh, and everyone's favorite: escort missions!

escort missions

Clark Kent must really have not made much money as a reporter if he had to walk the streets at night too

Hard disagree. You just need to play it long enough for the Stockholm syndrome to kick in. Once it has its claws in you, you can’t stop playing it. Trying to figure out what makes this garbage puzzle box tick.
