I really don't get the hate for this or 7. Both game had creative powers that had some light use in levels themselves for variety.

Compare to Mega Man 6, where every weapon seems to be a generic projectile or flash attack (Centaur Flash, really?) and the game has a total lack of challenge.

I don't hate 6, though. It had some good ideas, but 7 and 8 are much better than it.

I would argue FF2 is the most black sheep in the series. Which is actually a game I personally like. It's not anyway close to my favorite but it's still a great game once you understand how it's mechanics works.

Eight is rightfully hated, the plot and characters are awful and every gameplay change is a regression from previous games.

>>320638457
Casuals don't like 2 because it's too hard. There really isn't any other discernible difference that would make it definitively shit in comparison to the other games 1-4.


How about the worst game in the series being the most liked or one of the most liked? Pic very much related.

>>320640039
X isn't nearly the worse in the series. Honestly the problem with FF is that every game is completely different than the next. So it's hard to really talk about which is worse and which is best since it's all personal. I mean I love FFX but I also played it in a time when I had really bad daddy issues so the story really hit home more than most people.

also how can you say ff 2 is no different from 1-4 but 10 is? It just doesn't pretend its open world like the others.

You mean VII.

in comparison to 7 and 8, 10 is actually playable, and the soundtrack is tight af

In no way is Black Flag a black sheep of AssCreed. It's generally considered the second best if not best in the line up.

Play VI before you play V.

Otherwise you'll be deeply disappointed. V is the best one in the franchise by far, as agreed by not only most players, but the devs themselves.

Though IV is simply great too, and VIII gets a lot of well-deserved love too.

what about VII

Dragon Quarter is the only Breath of Fire game I particularly enjoyed. I'm glad I gave it a shot despite all the hate it gets; it ended up being one of my favorite games in the genre.

The common complaint I hear is that a lot of people felt megaman's sprite is too big and for the screen making the levels feel cramped. I like 7 and don't get the hate for it but my favorites are 4 and mm&b my taste is kinda weird I guess.

To be fair, VI is not that bad. Most of the hate it gets comes from how inferior it was to not only V, but IV too.

10 is awful and I might've been able to forgive it if it was just awful on to itself, but unfortunately for me, they decided that 10 should be the game all their other games hence forth would be based upon. So unfortunately what you say isn't correct, I blame the shortcomings of 12 and the awfulness of 13 on 10 babies and square trying to please their new fanbase.

>>320640397
It's not just grinding they always talk about and Grinding in FF games has always been significantly easier than most other RPG's compare it to early dragons quest, ultima, wizardry or even the first Mother game at the time and you'll see easily the problem is not grinding. The problem was the slight difficulty spike people had with a few minor gameplay changes, that is why most casuals hate 2. As for your second statement, you're stretching a bit i wasn't directly comparing 10 to 1-4 I just had them in the same post. If I was though there are a lot of significant changes that happened between them and 10.

7 was ok gameplay wise but the story was wack as fuck. The characters were mixed bag.

12 to me is the windwaker of the FF series there is some really good aspects, there is some really shit aspects and in some ways it felt unfinished. It would be right in the middle of FF games if I ranked them.

>>320642068

The funny thing is that Megaman in 7 is about as big as he was in the gameboy games, just not as small as he was in 1-6.

Dragon Quest 6 isn't a bad game or even black sheep. It's just alright which for a Dragon Quest game is something weird. Dragon Quest had always been the height of gameplay, story and just greatness. But 6 just felt like it was just...there. It's fun yeah but compare to the other Dragon Quest it is an oddity. At least it's not Dragon Quest 2 and Rome.
