Whole lot of projecture going on here. I never said the game was bad, I said it was unremarkable and did nothing new. This game copies pretty much every element from 8-bit classics and puts it in one game (mega man, Zelda II, Super Mario Bros., Ducktales, etc.).

So yeah, an actual cameo from one of those 8-bit classics would greatly enhance the game. I love easter eggs, secrets, references and cameos in games.

You don't seem to understand what Shovel Knight is about. Maybe you haven't played it (and that would make this conversation pointless) or maybe it flew right over your head...

It would be an understatement to say that the game is the way it is because of Nintendo and other companies during the 8-bit era.


I played the game and enjoyed it quite a bit. I understand that it made a lot of nods to past games without relying on cameos. It did it well this way, and I thought it was fun as it is. 

About your defense, as always, whatever you say.
