LetoII.3782 Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 So I don't really think proper medieval lances-and-lanes jousting is doable, I mean my favorite arcade game... We have pounce, we have two open skill slots, we have a dismount mechanic.How much more is involved in setting it up so we can dismount each other Mario style? I don't know, but I think it'd be a great addition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a 8-bit squawk from the buzzard who lost it's rider. Computers were very limited by storage back in the early 80's moreso than processor speed, which hasn't changed all that much single-core wise. So there wasn't much extra bling.But I could definitely see say, the minstrel finisher's sound fitting right in xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashen.2907 Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 I loved Joust back in the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus one less famous from the 90's called T-mech, it was the first lan-pvp game id ever seen. Probably not the first of its kind, but definitely the first to make it to my Podunk mall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's diversity lolIt's like 1982 all over again, flooded market with a million rehashes obscuring original works and ideas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
