Top 5 Rushed Games That Still Turned Out Great

[@salsamonkey65]

Cases like Majora's Mask at least make sense considering how many assets they were able to reuse, but I'm still dumbfounded that Melee is still as fun as it is

[@CommissarMitch]

I would personally say that Melee is franchise-defining. Yes it is the second game in the series and whatnot but consider that every single Smash game is based on Melee more than Smash 64.

[@ceulgai2817]

IMO, more sequels should be allowed to reuse assets. It's better for the environment, helps alleviates crunch, and most of the time creating new rock textures isn't going to have a significant impact on the final product.

Majora’s Mask is such an anomaly of a game since not only did it turn out so good despite only being made in 13 months, but it’s such a different game from Ocarina of Time that I doubt it’d be released again today. In fact, Aonuna himself has said that if given the chance to make Majora’s Mask again today, it wouldn’t be the same game, and plenty of the changes in the 3DS remake came from his own ideas and not Grezzo due to feeling that certain aspects didn’t entirely hold up well. It’s such a fascinating case where the game was created under such specific circumstances that it’s something that not even its own creator could fully recreate.

[@Bluesine_R]

Many of the changes made to the 3DS remake were so baffling and misguided that it makes you question whether Aonuma himself understood the game he made with his team.

Phantom Hourglass was a sequel to The Wind Waker. But as a console sequel, yes, Majora's Mask is alone until BotW's sequel. "A delayed game is eventually good, but a rushed game is forever bad." - Shigeru Miyamoto. I wonder how he felt during SMW's development. EDIT: I completely forgot Zelda II, a console sequel to Zelda 1. Thanks to Ethan Hayes for reminding me. So no matter how you slice it, Majora's Mask is not the only Zelda sequel.

Honestly of all the companies to take that advice I think it’s Monolith Soft, many stories come out about them being one of the best companies to work for in Japan, and their publisher can’t even rush their work if they wanted because they are a second party to Nintendo.

Still hard to believe that New Vegas, a game that had less than two years of development time, is still so in depth, so much more than the sum of its parts that it is still being played TO THIS DAY by people like me.

Some of th e most interesting rushed games to me are the ratchet and clank games. NEarly all of them were rushed in some way and its amazing that insomniac managed to pump out consistent B+ games that were really fun despite the development hell. However it also should be noted that insomniac with R&C 3 lost a decent chunk of their dev team becuase of this. And it really wasn't until after A Crack in Time that they finally finally got better about their management.

[@senounatsuru6453]

I feel like the ratchet and clank games on PS2 past the first one should all be on here as an honorary mention. They all had a year or less of dev-time and were *ALL* amazing.

[@headwindshield]

I think Mirror's Edge deserves an honourable mention. To this day, 12 years later, it has an active speedrunning community. Which goes to show how fun the parkour mechanics are. But with it being on such a tight budget and having such a rushed development time, the story is painfully short and the implementation of the game mechanics using so many bandaids that the game can even have the kinda advanced tech that makes watching a speedrun so satisfying. I guess this too is a double edged sword.

One of my favorite things about Super Mario World is how most of the Koopalings use Mode 7 to bypass the limitations they'd have if they were just standard sprites. That might be the most clever use of that graphics mode I've ever seen on the SNES; most Mode 7 games just used it as a backdrop to fudge 3D. It's even more impressive considering how SMW was the first game ever made for the damn thing.

It also introduced some series staples like EX Skills and the Dark Elf.

Mega Man 7 was also made in 4 months And let's be real, most mega man games were probably rushed due to being 1 year apart from each other

I feel that Megaman 7 is also a great example of a rushed game that ended up great. The X-series already had 2 games on SNES but considering the tight release gaps of other Megaman games (especially in the case of X7 and Zero 2), it's impressive that the devs managed to release a solid Classic-series game with a lot of secrets and flexibility in the span of only 3 months.

Ratchet and Clank: Up Your Arsenal and Ratchet: Deadlocked both had about 1 year of development afaik, and were extremely rushed and still ended up quite good. For the former, the devs were throwing emergency blankets on each other and crying because they thought they were going to make Insomniac's first failure. A major reason for the crunch in both games is that Sony forced them to add online multiplayer...on the PS2.

I really wonder how much better these "rushed but great" games could have been had they been given proper time to flourish. Up Your Arsenal is by many considered to be the best game in the Ratchet & Clank series, but it was also an overly ambitious game that had to be rushed out of the gate, and the single player campaign does suffer for it in a lot of areas. Proper levels for Aridia and Rilgar could for instance have been a huge boon since just doing missions on the multiplayer maps (that don't even really resemble the original location) just felt like the game was spitting on the first game by bringing back those iconic planets with by far inferior presentation (and they arguably made a worse Kerwan too).

Even if the whole process wasn’t completely rushed, I think the development of Resident Evil 3 was fascinating. All of a sudden it went from “small spinoff developed by inexperienced staff” to “mainline numbered series game”, and they had about two months to add on the extra content. It’s not as groundbreaking as 1, 2 and 4 were but it’s still a pretty good game in its own right.

It seems odd to count Super Mario World's 3 year development cycle as #1 since Final Fantasy 7 was also designed in 3 years (or 1 year, depending on how you're counting dev time), was a signature title for its platform (the PS1), and its devs had to factor in multiple hardware changes. Final Fantasy 7 for the PS finished in 1 year (or 3, depending on how you're counting dev time). FF7 started as a SNES game in 1994 but was cancelled in order to keep Chrono Trigger alive. Some characters that eventually were included in FF7 were rendered in the SGI engine in addition to the better known FF6 battle tech demo, back when Square were siding with Nintendo. Aside from these, the project was dormant for most of 1994/1995 and development was done for the PS1 in roughly 1 year.

Looking at Halo 2, I think the reason it was so successful despite its rushed development was that Bungie knew how to cut corners effectively. Remember that between Cairo Station and Outskirts was meant to be a level called "Covenant Ship" that got replaced with a cutscene. Not to say the cutscene didn't take work, but it would take far less than an entire level that needs to have a full story script, modelling, texturing, asset placement, testing, polishing, etc. Or perhaps instead the fact that they knew the Stencil graphics engine just wasn't going to work and decided to revert back to the older graphics used in CE. I think that a lot of games that are rushed tend to fail because the devs are afraid to cut or replace things, they keep all the evidence of a poor development cycle in the game as a buggy mess. Also interesting to note, the crunch cycle for Halo 2 was so bad that even to this day Marty O'Donnell is an outspoken opponent of crunch culture. Unfortunately it seems his talks with publisher execs usually gets completely misunderstood, he told a story to one once about the goose that laid golden eggs but was pushed so far it couldn't lay any more, and the publisher's response was essentially to cook the goose once its usefulness had run out.

While it's definitely the weakest of the three, I still really admire what BioWare managed to do with Dragon Age 2. They were only given about a year to develop a sequel to Origins, which itself took around 6 years to make, meaning they couldn't have the same variety of locations. So instead, they made fewer locations that you revisit multiple times throughout the game's story, which takes place over the course of 10 years. Again, you can definitely tell the development was rushed, the short turn around forced them to get more creative with what they could do, and in a way, I kind of like 2 better than Inquisition, which felt like it was too big at times. Although, I will always appreciate the moment when my mage Inquisitor met my mage Hawk, and they just started having a snark off since they both had the sarcastic personality type.

@@amirgarcia547 I think Fates was rushed because it was released on 2015, which is the Fire Emblem anniversary. So rushing out a game for anniversary release. That's sounds like Sonic 06.

I swear if Twinsanity isnt in this list...

[@Zelkiiro]

Crash Twinsanity isn't quite "great," though. Just "far better than it has any business being while still being a buggy unfinished mess."

@@Zelkiiro I guess thats a fair point.

You can technically count the 2 or 3 Souls games as they were rushed too Mostly the OG Dark Souls

[@Chaos89P]

Rushing development is a gamble that rarely goes well for the publisher, and ain't worth it for the developers.

[@allegedlyfalse6779]

How about a video on best games in bad franchises?

[@Sunnysideanyway]

Tiberian Sun was a rushed but great game
