Benice Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 1 minute ago, DragonFlames said: It's not that I don't WANT to try it. It's that I CAN'T, because my PC wasn't made for playing games on it. It struggles with a DS emulator, the PSP emulator just didn't work whatsoever, and thus I probably have a good reason to doubt a PS2 emulator would work on it. Not to mention that the actual PS2 we used to have (it belonged to my father, not me) broke a long, looooong time ago. Why can I never read properly?! Yeh, PS2 would likely be a bit of struggle for your computer; it didn't slow mine down as much as a Wii emulator did, but I'm pretty sure that it would be rather slow. Not to mention that PS2 emulating is complicated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So there's that to keep in mind as well. 16 minutes ago, DragonFlames said: For me, it depends on whether or not I like the characters. If the story just happens to be mediocre or bad, I can still enjoy the game if the characters are likeable enough (CS3 is an example). When the characters aren't likeable to me, that's practically a death sentence. And that was exactly the case in Fates for me. I could excuse the absolute travesty that is the story, because I will say that the game is at least enjoyable to play (outside of lategame Conquest), but the atrocious characters, especially the ones that are the main focus of the game, just kill the entire thing for me. Oh yes, the characters are a bigger factor in making or breaking the game. Luckily for me, I don't think I've played a game where I hated every character. Even Fates has a decent amount of characters I like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MisterIceTeaPeach Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 Seriously I hate emulating. That's why I purchased a PSP to play both Crossbell games. I use SNES and GBA emulator only for Fire Emblem, though latter has been deinstalled for a couple of years already. Otherwise I feel better playing games on my consoles.

Just now, Armagon said: Oh yes, the characters are a bigger factor in making or breaking the game. Luckily for me, I don't think I've played a game where I hated every character. That is indeed lucky. So far, I've had two games where the characters were so bad, they just made me quit playing the game altogether. In one of those two cases, one character sufficed. 5 minutes ago, Armagon said: Even Fates has a decent amount of characters I like. Believe it or not, but I have those, too. It's just that they are 1) overshadowed by what I think to be absolute garbage, and 2) absolutely in the minority. Just now, Shrimperor said: <--is trying to run a PS3 emulator and failing, since PS3 emulators require literal monsters That is interesting to me, since PC games require higher-end specs than PS3 games do. Though I guess the emulator itself is a different story, huh? On that note, I'm sad my PS3 isn't working properly anymore. I would have loved to revisit Tales of Xillia. 2 minutes ago, Falcom Knight said: Seriously I hate emulating. That's why I purchased a PSP to play both Crossbell games.

PS3 games themselves, when properly ported, don't require a strong pc. A Weak pc can run them fine (Cold Steel games being an example). However most companied don't know how to port xD And Emulating is a completely different matter. Will probably be a decade before i can play Tears to Tiara lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterIceTeaPeach Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 (edited) I haven't tried the big ones like Dolphin because I know they wouldn't run anyways. 5 minutes ago, DragonFlames said: On that note, I'm sad my PS3 isn't working properly anymore.

Quote A Weak pc can run them fine (Cold Steel games being an example).

Acacia Sgt Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 This reminds me when I tried trying out my Ace Combat PS2 discs on my laptop. Would run slow at times, run quite fine at others... then it couldn't decide which graphic settings it wanted to have if I wanted to see things properly. At least I have a backup once my PS2 finally kicks it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is good news, but I have had terrible experience with used consoles before (I got a used N64 way back when, when the one I had went the way of every living thing. The used one lasted maybe a week). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
