Cuz they are better games and not streamlined or tedious to play or every plays the same

zoomer plz leave

wrong
plenty of "new" games have soul
they just need sequels that are vastly inferior.

No new games have soul. Because old = soul

I unironically enjoyed the GBA Spyros

Only zoomers think Minish Cap is any good.

I was born in 1988 and i say that MINISH CAP WAS THE START OF THE DOWNFALL OF FUCKING ZELDA 2D GAMES

GIMMICK ASS BULLSHIT SHRINK AND DINK AND GET BIG
COMBAT IS SUPER EASY
HEART ONLY DOWN 1 4TH COMPARED TO HALF OR 1 HEART BEFORE.


THE AMAZING THINF IS AFTER THIS GAY AS FUCK 2D GAME EVERY 2D GAME AFTER THIS THE SERIES HAS COPIED THE SAME FUCKING THING OVER AND OVER AND PACKAGED IT AND PEOPLE HAVE BOUGHT IT

CHICKEN GIVE ME TENDIES REEEEEE

No, it’s just one of those concepts zoomers have a hard time grasping because everything they grew up with is fucking garbage and most of that garbage is nothing more than an interactive advertisement.

I think it has something to do with their decayed attention span. They grew up expecting quick hits of easy payoff — anything that takes any thought is immediately discarded.

Zoomers are the most blown out, busted generation

op said a game with soul not one that steals your soul

Actually soul is just a buzzword that means old = good because I like it.
That's it and anything else is wrong.

Basically it means something made with passion and talent instead of just to make a buck
The difference between a vision and made-by-committee
Granted, games with soul are out to make a buck too.

the original graphics hold up just fine and don't feel outdated if anything it doesn't need a 3d remake but just a modern polish up so the sprite work looks like cadence of hyrule tier.

user new games aren't allowed to have soul. Zoomer logic

I beg to differ
You need a high amount of autism to understand why TGM is so soulful. In this case I have the advantage since I'm an aspie.

Yeah well if you say something like Undertale has soul retards will quote you just because

Every single little kid got destroyed by the first goomba in the game.


You are full of shit little kid
No you have phantom hour glass and the rest of the bullshit games.

Fools will dismiss it just because of the pixel aesthetic.

Why does someone ask this every single thread?
Every time someone asks for an explanation and get plenty of replies as to what is meant by it, in the very next thread there is going to be someone claiming it's just a meme or to explain what it is, yesterday's thread for example which lasted all day had dozens of posts explaining what it meant with in a non shitposting manner but then everybody is going to pretend it never happened and the exact same things is going to happen next thread.
It's all so tiresome because the moment one thread goes by without people spending the time to elaborate and just want to post, people will use that as proof that it means nothing, ignoring previous threads and posts on the subject.

You could say that about pretty much every Zelda game though.

Like what?

Is buzzword a meme buzzword?

The problem is that people's definitions are very vague and inconsistent. He only actual consistent thing you notice about the soul games is that they're all games that came out when people who are currently 20-30 we're children. Many new games would qualify under the definitions people give but yet these new games are never posted as examples of soul.

Ok one example.
WW
something that was in oot and mm and has not returned since

In windwaker there was an addition to the game known as filler enemies.
Filler enemies were added to the game as a placeholder of time in the game.
When you realize it in oot and mm the enemies move 1 for 1 in tandem with link and the player. For any novice who plays this game the enemies are more receptive and have the ability to fight back.
After mm NO zelda enemies do this and they all get mowed down.

THIS makes the game even less of a point when LINK can fucking upgrade all of his abilities and enemies Already don't do any shit.


For all my upgrades i got i was hoping for big bad nintendo to drop upgrades on to all the enemies but litterally 90% of the game enemies mean nothing.

Litterally super saiyan goku vs HERCULE then super saiyan 2 vs HERCULE again.

Litterally fucking retarded

considering how many zoomer souls those two games have stolen it must be overflowing with soul by now

Yeah after the fact we've known the game for 20 years but when it first came out no one did this and i had a younger brother who was 5 when it came out he couldn't do it. My friends at age 10 didn't do it and my sister and her friends at age 20 with her gaming bf who played quake on the PC couldn't do it.

In order to improve zelda make enemies have better attacking ai.

It's sad to me that most people aren't able to enjoy this game. It gained a bit of notoriety as a youtube meme game but it's a lot more than that.

Couldn't possibly be any more soulless. The game is 6 months worth of polish away from being a true mastapiece, but it falls short due to (mostly) uninspired worlds, poor writing, and characters that only come across as caricatures. That's to speak nothing of the piss poor collision.

which pokemon game is this?

I haven't played Odyssey so I can't tell you, but why even make that comparison in the first place?

What game

I don't think it's that simple, there a couple of recently released games I'd describe as being soulful.

Pokemon battle revolution iirc

Mario Odyssey world designs
World 1: A Tim Burton inspired foggy hat world with eerie crooked top hat buildings in the background
World 2: A beautiful waterfall with a controllable T-Rex
World 3: A frozen Mexican inspired desert where you ride on a statue of a lion and climb an inverted pyramid
World 4: a fake forest created and maintained by robots with giant redwoods. There's a hidden area accidentally accessible by falling with a deep dark forest and a hunting t-rex.
World 5: A gorgeous lake with mermaids living in a giant fish bowl where you play as a fish.
World 6: A colorful jungle where you have to pass over perilous acid filled chasms as a cross between an accordion and a caterpillar
World 7: A realistic looking city with realistic proportioned humans where you control a tank. At the end you do an incredible 2d section as a throwback to the original donkey Kong.
World 8: A beach level inspired by Mario Sunshine with a copy of the fludd system.
World 9: A Bavarian style snow themed level where you race as a bouncy fat seal.
World 9.5: A fight with a fucking realistic bloodborne looking dragon.
World 10: The typical volcano level except now everything is made of food and the lava is soda? or tabby or whatever.
World 11: the typical browsers castle level... except this time it's a Japanese style fortress and you play as a woodpecker ending in an incredible boss fight.
World 12: the typical bowser fight, except then you PLAY AS BOWSER and have to run and break your way through to escape a collapsing cave while a 90s style pop song plays.
World 13: The fucking Mario 64 peaches castle.

How in the fuck is this game not soul while Mario "5 beach levels" Sunshine is? Eat shit nostalgia fags.

I have seen many threads about "soul". I have seen many references to Mario sunshine and only one reference to Odyssey (this thread). I use it to highlight that new games get overlooked while old ones get undue praise for "soul." Its not specifically about these two games but about the bigger issue where new games are given no credit.

I did that probably two years ago and they replied, so it's worth a try. I'm really worried about the game too. Even the devs twitter accounts have gone dead except for one of them who posts updates about a different project that doesn't seem to have anything to do with HitBox Team.

It's just butthurt zoomers trying to force their "old good new bad" narrative.
The funniest thing is that the meaning of soul isn't even something Yea Forums invented, it's barely one step away from definitions that have existed in the OED since the 1800s.
>soulful, a.
>2. Expressive or indicative of deep feeling or emotion.
This definition has existed since the 1800s.
Literally everyone knows what you mean when you call something soulless, it means "devoid of inspiration or feeling".

There is nothing even remotely obscure or incomprehensible about the way people use soul/soulless on this board. Just because not everyone unanimously agrees with everyone else about what has soul and what doesn't, doesn't mean the words don't have a meaning.

edgelords fail to see the irony when they laugh at others for being 'triggered' when they themselves also get 'triggered' over meaningless shit.

>I have no idea what soul means

It's honestly up to you to discern "soul" in a game. People play games for different reasons and something that somebody really appreciates in a game such as character designs might not be appreciated by someone who's looking for orchestral soundtracks in games, which is why you have people in a circle jerk arguing which games are soulful, when in reality you'll know an unsoulful game when you see one right away and pretty much everything listed in this thread has some form of soul, which really just means either
>Old charming graphics
or
>it has something I like and actively seek out in games

Bottom Text

>Why does someone ask this every single thread?
It's just shitposting. An user in a previous soul thread admitted to doing it just to antagonize people similar to how fedora tippers like trolling Christians.

So much space. So much nothing

Most new games are soulless
Exceptions include brigador, rain world, psychonauts, Alice madness returns

Enemies, chests, shrines, koroks, animals, etc
Stupid zoomer

Surrounded by massive amounts of space. Turns out limitations allowed for better gameplay and storytelling.

Open world is fucking retarded. And I mean "do anything" type open world not n64 ocarina of time shit

So it's okay when bad games like OOT do it but not something with good gameplay? Begone Zoom Zoom.

>bad games like OOT
>Begone Zoom Zoom
So you are just spouting buzzwords without even understanding them?

Only zoomers like OOT, they never played LTTP and think OOT good or anywhere close to its quality.

What if I like Link's Awakening?

You just have shit taste

What Zelda games should I like to get accepted on Yea Forums and not be called a zoomer even though I'm 30?

MM, BOTW, WW, LTTP and Oracle games are the only good Zelda

oh ok. Still have to play BOTW

I just explained the difference? What didn't you understand? OOT isn't open world

Yeah it's not open world it's just barren and empty and a waste of time.

Hell no.
>Miyamoto talks Rare out of ditching the original soulful setting, for a soulless Starfox tie-in that breaks all world building, just to fit Andross in somehow.
Don't even get me started on the gameplay. Yeesh. This game is a polished turd.

You mean purposely design and not just chocked full of filler bullshit?

Go cubs!

>You mean purposely design
Of being empty? Is that why previous and post games have actual content on them?
>not just chocked full of filler bullshit?
Yeah it doesn't have filler it literally has no content. Travel is an issue there's nothing to do when you move to other locations from the oversized hub and oh with its night! Nothing to do but sit away and wait. Fun

Friendly reminder that soul doesn't mean old or nostalgic. Current games can have soul. The reason a lot of old games are considered soulful, is that sometimes it takes time to really appreciate the effort that went into making these games.

When you're here and now in the moment, you can be dazzled by graphics, even if the soul isn't there. Or you can be disappointed by jank, even though the soul IS there.
In many cases, it takes us time to evaluate what has soul, and what doesn't. But soul isn't limited to old games.

> Posts Richard Burns Rally Screenshot

You're probably long gone by now, but just in case you ever come back I want you to know that you are mah nigga

GBA Fire Emblem art and animations are masterpieces

That was fun. Exploring the hub and other areas was fun. It was simple, straightforward, and fun. It wasn't a giant eyesore. Open world games are boring as fuck. Having a hub and set areas gives the game purpose. Gives it a feeling. I like levels. I like areas. I FUCKING HATE OPEN WORLD WASTE OF TIME BULLSHIT

Too bad none of the games are good but 6

>That was fun
No wasting your time in a shitty oversized hub with literally nothing is not fun. Maybe if you are autistic; but people with taste don't find that fun. It's a direct downgrade from ALTTP you stupid zoomer

What if you enjoyed both? What if I'm not a zoomer? Do you feel sore, resting on that crutch so often?

Only because you want it to mean that doesn't make it so. If you weren't a little zoom zoom you'd even understand it, but since all you know is rehashed garbage tailored to your 5 second attention span, you'll never be really able to understand it properly.

No I understand it. It means thing I Like, or thing I don't like. That's why games like FFVII and Chrono Trigger are soulless trash.

OLD GOOD NEW BAD

Zoomers are in-capable of liking good games

Don't, user.

The gameplay aged like corpses. The design is so outdated that modern game designers look back to these anons' childhoods and say "this is what you should never do." Graphics is all they have left. Don't take it from them.

I'm not a zoomer. You're incapable of having a cognitive thought

Remember when this fucker showed up in Illusion of Gaia? Hoooooooly shit. I miss those games.

Also Wind Waker fucking sucks

Yes you are. As it goes for zoomers you get btfo and your only respond is shitposting when pointed out facts. Try killing yourself. We need less mentally ill in the world.

Hey now hold on a second, sure the Oracle games are the pinnacle of 2D Zelda but Link's Awakening was at least passable. DX blew shit.

So much seethe. So little cope.

LIST OF MODERN SOUL:
Shovel Knight (unique take on nostalgia and platformers, perfect blending of good stuff from different games)
Cuphead
Stardew Valley (ripoff of existing game that still feels like a dream project, knowing about the troublesome production helps to understand it)
Demon's Souls, arguably Dark Souls and Bloodborne, too, definitely not Sekiro, though it's a great game.
Super Mario Odyssey
BotW, as much as I hate its open-world, it's much better than ubisoft's soulless shit
Undertale (as much as I hate it, you can't deny that it is soaked in passion and desire to create something unique)
Yakuza 0
some of the Devolver games
Red Dead Redemption 2 (as much as PCfags hate it, you can't deny that it has tremendous storytelling, a lot of effort put into it (remember crunches?) and desire to create something worthwhile (Online cashgrab shitfest doesn't count, obviously)

Feel free to argue/add something else

>Undertale

Patrician post

this list is the opposite of soul; it's soulless.

>Red Dead Redemption 2
RDR1 has more soul, RDR2 is too polished with too many man hours and too much dev time to have much of the designers' soul show through

Sunshine has some of the best individual stages in the entire series, especially in its secret levels, even though it also has the lowest average stage quality and the worst progression system by far.
