every character i play is off meta
not because i dislike playing the meta, but because the designs i like are usually attached to off meta picks

>tfw trying to play kotor for the first time after playing baldurs gate 3
it's different if you haven't played a game in the genre before but trying to go back to an older game before the concept of the genre was even realized is rough. kotor's combat is a fucking tragedy because i've heard a lot of good about the story, but i'm not gonna sit through another ff12 auto attack simulator trying to be dnd

even my favorite game of all time, final fantasy crystal chronicles, has a thick layer of clunk on it
>random input delay but ONLY on normal attacks, this remains in the remaster
>can't craft the best weapons unless you chose the blacksmith family tree or spend 20 in game years leveling another character for it
>can't craft the best accessories unless you chose the tailor family tree or spend 20 in game years leveling another character for it
>the other 6 family trees DO NOT HAVE A USE
>no indication of how to level a family tree
>no indication of how loot tables work unless you bought the guide
>the original had items and stat increasing artifacts you couldn't get unless your point threshold was above a certain point. the only way to get your points high enough for some of the better ones is via a bonus objective which you CANNOT SEE IN THE ORIGINAL UNLESS YOU PLUG IN A GAMEBOY AS A CONTROLLER
>cant do multiplayer in the original without multiple gameboys
>cant do multiplayer in the remaster without multiple consoles, and multiple online service fees
>remaster multiplayer is in dungeon only, your party members dont get story progress and aren't in cutscenes with you

i love the game to death but yes, older games have a lot of unnecessary clunkiness
