@1982markjm 5 лет назад

Hydlide was originally released for the NEC PC-6001 and PC-8801 computers in 1984, yes it released BEFORE Zelda. And thus is hugely influential to the Zelda series and action role playing games in general. Despite the awful framerate in this version, it's essentially a Proto-Oblivion. An open world action rpg featuring a 3D world on the goddamn Saturn of all things.

@1982markjm 5 лет назад

Definitely. Everyone immediately thinks of the pixelated sprites of Mortal Kombat when it comes to digitized graphics, but the higher quality digitization of games like this, and titles like The Need For Speed on the 3DO looks great, and makes me wish that more games used it. As for the gameplay of Virtual Hydlide... I find it enjoyable, but I have a strong stomach for older RPGs and PC games.

@billvolk4236 4 года назад

There's an in-game timer, so we actually know that this speedrun would have taken about half as much time without lag. And this speedrun does everything possible to reduce lag, so a normal playthrough of Virtual Hydlide is probably slowed down by three times or more.

FusRohDah we theres that and the fact that killing monsters is pointless especially when everything costs so much. The game runs on tank controls which is easily the stiffest kind of controls mitigated by shuffling. No actual direction or idea of what’s happening (softlocks when you don’t get the fairies when you beat the eel) But the framerate is easily the most glaring problem
