Ahh... Super Mario Land
I haven't heard that in a few eons. I can relate to that game. When I was young I played that game thinking it was hard as hell. I haven't played it recently since I lost it, but I'll assume it's easy now.

Oh yeah, that was one nice game even if it only had 12 levels. I remember finally beating it. Good times. And yes, it was certainly a lot harder a few years ago.

Mortal Kombat used to be hard for me, I thought, "I can't beat the computer after the first guy! It's too hard!". Once you figure out more about the game you can beat it in your sleep.

It actually only took me 2 or 3 days to beat Super Mario Land, actually. XD And this was when the GB first came out too.

Still ended up playing it long after that because of my obsession with high scores.

It seems that all the RPG games I play now are easier than when I played them as a kid.
Mostly Final Fantasy 2 (SNES). I still find it hard, but I can beat it now.

True, I mention earlier that SMRPG was hard for me as a kid but now that I'm older, it's much easier. Also FFVII is another example, I finally beat Emerald Weapon, not Ruby Weapon yet about couple of years ago. I couldn't do that as a kid because I didn't even understand how to make a Gold Chocobo.

I still have smrpg. I play that game alot because they have so much hidden stuff.
Only recently did I find the Great Guy's Casino. It was't as fun as I thought it would be.
RPG's are always hard because of all the little hidden stuff you have to find in there.

Usually RPGs and stuff are shit easy once you've beaten them the first time. Unless its something like Seiken Densetsu 3, where you need to play it a gazillion times to beat it with every possible party. I think I have improved over the years with gaming, but of course, this is due to playing a lot of games

There are very few games I can wait 6 months, go back to, and then still find hard. In fact, I can't think of any off the top of my head. It's probably a RTS or something. Games that are for the thinking gamer I love those. When you forget how to play the puzzle game Tetris Attack, I guess that can be fun again. I really like Total Annihilation, but this is basically a continously modded game now, and the mods are for multiplayer purposes. Multiplayer games are always better. Single player games are the ones you beat once and can never play again unless you like ease.

Did that make ANY sense? Yea, its late.

RPG's are only easy because you know what to do and what strategies to use during boss battles... so that's why you mix it up and give yourself some added challenge by not levelling as much/etc.

Most of the RPG's I've played were pretty easy for me. The first one I played wasn't too long ago. I can't beat them in a matter of a few days though. Back then, it took me a few weeks to but now it takes me even mroe time because I have gaps between where I don't play any games. The only reason why an RPG would be hard for me is because I didn't level up enough then I have to go back and do that. I don't think I've played enough of them to beat them in such little time or have that time like I did earlier.

I remember when i first played SMRPG that i got stuck in Marrymore, because i didn't know where to go or whom to talk. Then i begun to READ the texts to know what were trying to say to get the idea and after a year that i dropped the game, I knew that i had to talk to the 'grandpa' (the older frog) to tell that the other star (i think it was the 4th, the purple one) was in star hill, so when i saw the map, i could go to the left (i was so excited to be able to continue ). Then i begun to understand that u must read the storyline, not only gaining levels.
