They're both correct.

Hook up the old super nintendo and start asking questions like "Hey did you ever play Lufia?"

[–] Notyou@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Lufia? I rented it from the video rental store back in the day. I never finished it, but I enjoyed the game.

So, Lufia is a LONG game. It's got fairly limited graphics and sound for a SNES game but it packs in a lengthy quest. It feels almost wrong to offer that one as a rental.

Look into Lufia 2, it is one of the rare cases of a sequel being shockingly better than the first game. It is the only SNES RPG I put in the same class as those from Square or Enix, and I like it more than most of those.

I feel like this happens (or at least used to happen) regularly in video games.

Yeah, I suppose that was true in the 80s and 90s for sure. Now that I think about it, I can name a several right off the top of my head and probably every Final Fantasy game was like that until 7 or at least 8.
