>>341844723
anon, the word "overrated" means something has been rated more highly than it deserves

at 88 metacritic, fallout 4 does indeed take the lowest score on op's list, the rub of that being that it did not deserve even an 88
maybe a 60

>>341844359
Add witcher 3, remove fallout 3

I'd also remove fallout 4, not because it's amazing, but because it isn't really overrated. The community is VERY vocal on how it sucked.
>>
>>341844996
i agree that review scores should be relevant to their time. Both half life and goldeneye were incredibly fun, especially multiplayer in goldeneye's case. i think the problem with half life is it stayed more or less the same, but with upgraded graphics over the years. it didnt advance much in terms of anything really videogame-wise. i'd say half life 2 is overrated in that concern.

Fallout 4 isn't overrated. It didn't get that good reviews or anything.
>>
>>341845246
Fallout 3 wasn't perfect, but it was a solid game for fallout first 3d iteration, and deserved a lot of the praise it gets.

Sure, main quest was pretty bland, but it's side quests definitely made up for it. The rpg elements were a little watered down, but nowhere near f4.

im gettin real close to shitposting here but what is this apologetic shit concerning fallout 4?
it was sub-par on literally every front
>writing
>gameplay
>graphics
>business model
is 88 out of 100 really what people think it deserved? I know there's not much hope to be held in today's industry but surely people's standards arent this low.
a 60 is what id expect it to get, a 70 more realistically given that bethesda games have a certain playability to them (skyrim for example being pretty terrible, i still have 700 hours in it myself) but an 88 seems horrendously excessive
>>
>>341844359
Overwatch, Golden Eye and Half Life 2 are good though. Rest of those games are bad.
>>
I would agree with everything except Half-Life 2 and even Fallout 3.

I'm just shocked that Fallout 4 somehow turned out worse than 3.
>>
>>341845486
Dialogue was somehow worse than everyone thought. It was fucking horrific and basically ruined the role-playing experience.
Tons of shit removed for no reason like skills, ammo types, reputation, advanced companion commands, and some other things I can't think of right now.
Main plot doesn't make a ton of sense and clashes with the gameplay. The story incentives you to rush out and find your son as soon as possible but the gameplay wants you to explore every nook and cranny of every tiny location.
Not enough guns--pipe weapons are abundant but are literally never good enough to use.
Plot has tons of holes (see Joseph Anderson video).
Main plot about the Institute has no reason to be in a Fallout game. Why would you choose the theme of artificial humans/AI in the Fallout universe, or any post-apoc universe? They abused the "War never changes" line in the intro of the game, but they never actually explored that idea in the story.

Not to mention the classic "Bethesda has no idea how long 200 years is" problem.

All off the top of my head.

Fucking kill yourself. Not because you played the game for 700 hours, but because you're so desparate to fit in with a bunch of anonymous people online that you'd claim that a game you played for that long is terrible. I have never spent 700 hours on a single game in my whole life, and I've been playing video games for at least 3 hours a day for the last 20 fucking years.

Any game that could hold your attention for 700 hours must be fucking brilliant. Hell, I'm not even a big skyrim fan (played for about 20 hours then dropped it), but even I think that you're a tryhard, pathetic loser.

It's a shame that they didn't recognize New Vegas at all for the positives that it brought and ignored anything that made that game good.

You're so desperate to be contrarian it's sad. Like, if you spend 700 hours on a game, you obviously like it and obviously don't think it's shit.

Fallout 4 had its faults, but I still enjoyed it while it lasted. It wasnt a game you played multiple playthroughs of, but it was a good single "explore everything" playthrough game, and it improved on a lot since 3.

What about Deus Ex HR?
Does anybody here really think that game is a 9 or 10 out of 10? A masterpiece? The game is pretty mediocre.

Also OP: Remove HL2. If you consider the time it came out - it is a masterpiece and it even holds up to today.

You are either a mindless sheep that consumes anything, or your life is so empty, that you spend time with video games you don't even like.

I really don't think Dark Souls II, Undertale, Overwatch and Half Life 2 should be up there. While they have their own flaws they aren't awful games.

When compared to the rest they are popular games in their own right but they aren't a buggy mess like Fallout 3, 4 and Skyrim.

They aren't contrived of shallow stories and choices despite being presented as deep and meaningful like Gone Home, Mass Effect and Bioshock Infinite.

And they aren't hanging on nostalgia despite always being a dumbed down console shooter like Goldeneye. (Though an argument could be made for Half Life 2 I think it was rather revolutionary for it's time.)
>>
>>341846680
>HL 2 is a masterpiece and holds up today
No it doesn't go play it the first few HOURS of the game are do a shit physics puzzle drive to one place so you can get told to drive to another replace, repeat 100 times over I'm 14 hours in and the only enjoyable part has been Ravenholm and the last fucking hour has been run in and kill some mooks then fight 3 striders

mods are a hell of a drug, making your own fun is what i think makes bethesda games playable.
what it sounds like is from your perspective you look at a lego and say "its a cube with bumps on it what could ever be fun about that" and i'd agree, but put a few together and you can have orc girls with horsecocks (or decent gameplay whatever)
skyrim is boring dull shit that i managed to have fun with

Skyrim

Skyrim

No, actually the popular opinion is that it was an incredibly good game, and it has the high metascore to prove it.

The contrarian wannabe patrician /v/ opinion is that it was shit.

yeah, no. Unless he is a masochist there is no reason whatsoever to play something you think is terrible for 243 hours. He had 100s of games to choose from and still played Skyrim, he clearly enjoyed it. But he is so desperate to fit in that he calls it shit. The worst thing people here can do to you is call you a fag, why not man up and admit you like it?
>>
I think the fact that this thread will inevitably spawn even more threads with more updated images just goes to show just how garbage of a board /v/ is

People here are literally talking not about how bad a game, not how good a game is, but how good OTHER PEOPLE THINK a game is which has absolutely fuck all to do with the content itself. Not only that but discussion about whether or not those games are overrated which says absolutely nothing about whether or not those games are good or bad in the first place. An absolutely horrendous broken piece of shit rated at 20 would be overrated. A near perfect game rated at 99 would be overrated.
