--Inspired by @Ed MOTHEREFFING G's video game hot takes thread--
Another poster just made a thread on gaming hot takes where he brought up Eddy Gordo. Tekken 3 was a gamechanger because we had never seen a capioera fighter done so well in a game before in 3D. You felt DOPE watching and performing all his combos. Even mashing buttons and doing random stuff as Eddy felt so
.
Look at how clean this move is
I also nominate Melee Captain Falcon. His combos in that game were ridiculous. Watching him combo people into the falcon punch or a knee
Last nomination: Mario 64 Mario felt dope to play as and to watch. In SM64, Mario didn't have a speed cap while he was airborne, which opened the game up for all kinds of crazy speedrun strats and sequence breaks. The crazy depth of Mario's moveset and SM64's freedom of movement put that game on another level above any other 3D platformer of it's time. It was like playing a Jackie Chan movie
It's a shame that they nerfed Mario's speed and athleticism while dumbing down his moveset in all the other 3D games.
