Terranigma’s not disliked, it just never got a North American release so it’s more obscure than it should have been.
Comment on What’s your favorite video game that most people didn’t like ??
thingsiplay@lemmy.ml 2 weeks agoHow is Terranigma mentioned here? It’s one of the most beloved Action Adventure RPGs on the system and to my knowledge, most people who have played it liked it. I also had the game back then, purchased it randomly because Lufia 2 wasn’t released yet (in Germany). Honestly, I think Terranigma is one of those universally loved games, never heard anyone disliking it.

I personally know two JRPG gamers that played it (recommended by me) and didn’t like it, because they never advanced beyond the underworld. And some other people online with a similar experience. Of course, that was in the '90s, when I played it for the first time.
In the 30 years since, the game has become a lot more popular and gained a cult following, but at release time it wasn’t like that (not helped by the fact that the 2 previous games in the trilogy were kind of obscure too).

It’s always fascinating to read other experiences and cultures. In my experience, from what I read back then and from personal experience with friends opinion, plus all the aftermath of internet culture I never had the impression that this game is not liked by “most”. So seeing the game here was surprising to me. I am in Germany, just for reference.
