    I'm only correcting this because it was said SO MANY times: Dungeon Magic is not played from a first-person perspective. First-person perspective means that you are seeing the environment from the character's own perspective (a la first-person shooters, such as Doom). Dungeon Magic is played from an overhead, isometric, third-person perspective.

    • @darrenjames2304
      @darrenjames2304 14 дней назад

      to correct your correction @thatprettybmf Dungeon Magic is just an isometric 5 oclock overhead view(slanted over to the right from 6oclock) in an almost 2.5D look. Third person perspective is reserved for 3d games where you see your character(DMC\GOW etc) so this is NOT 1st nor 3rd person. Thats All. 😊

    • @ThatPrettyBMF
      @ThatPrettyBMF 14 дней назад +3

      @darrenjames2304 You can see your own character in this game. It's a third-person game.

      Seeing your own character is called.... a VIDEO GAME!!! lol :P 1st and 3rd person are terms used for 3d games as i specified. like a 1st person shooter you dont see yourself but your at times your weapons or arms like it is you doing these actions while 3rd person, again, is that the camera is placed BEHIND you at a certain distance and ONLY when you are moving into the screen in 3D and you see the full body. It was quite well explained in my first comment :)

    Wow, you brought along a truly bunch of the gems! These titles offer so much thing I miss in the modern era - atmosphere, unique graphical style, variety of characters/enemies, crazy ideas, simple gameplay , memorable music that keeps you going on and much, much more. I could talk about them hours long. Let me only say that the powerful beatem ups like Battle Circuit, Night Slashers or Knights of the Round will be always having a special place in my heart, the heart of the gamer since the early 90s. Thanks for bringing them back and keep rocking in 2025!

    loved 90s arcades , we had childrens day in our small town every year in Scotland and the shows would come and they would bring the arcade units with them and Id spend all the money id get from family members playing all the arcades, some of these are amazing moonwalker I remember playing , and played some others when i visited Canada in 94 at an amusement park. Some of these i remember from gamesmaster and wished id played them. They always seemed to be on the neo geo but could never afford it .

      Welcome to the Dead Internet. Their "script writer" clearly doesn't comprehend that XBLA isn't an actual arcade, same way it doesn't comprehend that 1994's *Dungeon Magic* (aka *Light Bringer*) is not the same game as 1989's *Dungeon Magic: Sword of the Elements* (which is a first person game, in the vein of *Dungeon Master* or *Eye of the Beholder*). Both would have been picked up in seconds a human bothered to check.

    • @richardklein1167
      @richardklein1167 8 дней назад

      Are you talking about AI making full games? The reason is I know we haven't quite reached that point, however, I know games that have been released have pieces of it in them. They're definitely not as good as human creation, but I don't think I have actually played a game where AI is relied heavily on personally for a lot of the heavy lifting. I never played many arcade games in the past but I definitely remember having some fun with the TMNT and Simpsons beat'em up arcade games that came out.

    "How did I miss this?" It's as simple as the games never having a cabinet in any of the arcades I went to.
    Back then there were far too many games to have them all get attention, nevermind if they were even around to be ignored in the first place.

    You showed Dungeon Magic but described Crossed Swords, you showed Biomechamical Toy buy described maybe Devil Crush? And you showed video from one of the dungeons and dragons games calling it something else entirely.
    What....why?

    Every one of these entries are like this. No, the Outfoxies doesn't have playable Dolphins, they meant the twins. No, Dungeon Magic isn't in first person.
