I like to go back to old games that were well regarded in their time but I missed. It's neat to see what holds up and what doesn't, but the biggest disappointment to me has to be Secret of Mana. So many people love that game, so I went in with high expectations. I instead found the combat way too simple when it even lets me play, far too often, it takes control away from your characters through annoying status effects. I could not stand it and dropped it fairly quick.
Donkey Kong country is like that for me. The platforming isn’t very satisfying. Music is great though.
Trials of Mana is a far better game than Secret of Mana in my opinion but the combat is a slog still. It's especially bad being real time with move cool downs but what really kills me is the game pausing every time a magic spell is cast or opening the item wheel, which is constantly. Idk how anyone playing co-op could put up with that lol it's so tedious already without adding 1 or 2 friends to the mix.
