Fallout 4 is easily an 8/10 game.

It's not really an RPG, and Bethesda were wrong to market it as one, but taken as what it actually is- a sandbox FPS- it's really good.

Final Fantasy XIII was a decent game. Despite how I did like the trilogy, I felt like its gameplay got worse as the series went on.

MGSV was a great game and the people most disappointed were those who spent hours wanking in trailer threads.

I played the whole series on release and went into MGSV blind and it was a great game. The story was weak yes, but story wise the series ended with 4 as far as I'm concerned. The gameplay was a lot of fun.

Luigi's Mansion is way better than the second and if they ever make another sequel it better be more like the first

I think that the new Zelda will potentially fall into the same problem which plagues Minecraft and most open world games: There is a shit ton of stuff to potentially do, but no reason to really do it. This eventually leads to people getting bored with the game and dropping it.

Final Fantasy 13 was a damn good game that I had a blast playing, and Lightning and Vanille are both well-written characters. That, and Skyrim is an ugly, unfun, poorly written pile of garbage with a retarded story for the cherry on top, and it deserves none of the praise that normies, bewilderingly, continue to heap on it.

Bayonetta is shit, worst game made by platinum of the ones I've played but apparently their new games suck too. No surprises here.

I don't like nintendo games anymore. I don't know if this is controversial here or not but it's true for me, everything after the GBA feels mediocre for me.

Any game type can be fun if it sets out to be that and succeeds. When it waters down other elements but still includes them is where the problems begin.

Yoshi's Island is the low point of the Super Mario series.

Everything that came out of EA after Red Alert 3 is cancer.
>>
>>342039865
No, I played Morrowind a lot too, but I could never get into it because it was all text, and it was frustrating to me (especially during the beginning) picking up a sword and swinging directly at a mudcrab and missing over and over. I picked blade as a major skill, I'm not a fucking infant. I also liked the setting in Cyrodil more than Skyrim or Morrowind, but I really hated how they removed attributes and spellcrafting from Skyrim, and added shitty perks and kill animations instead.

Also I know the fucking imperial guards are a meme, and everyone hates the voice acting in Oblivion but I think the Imperial Guards, and Lucien Lachance sounded fucking great. I actually like the voice acting for the other races too, because at the very least I found them much more fitting to the races they belonged to. i.e, the Redguard Arena master and the dude in "Whodunit" seemed like virtually different people despite having the same voice actor. I don't think it was THAT bad.

The Last of Us, Half-Life 2, and Ocarina of Time are the three greatest games of all time

Bayonetta is shit compared to DMC

Tracer is the best Overwatch girl by a significant margin

CoD was a decent series up to Black Ops 1. Everything after that is shit
>>
>>342035908
Last of Us is generic as shit and really boring. The gameplay fucking sucks and a lot of time is spent walking around. The ONLY saving grace of the game is the story, and while it's a step up from most videogames, it would get fucking destroyed in a movie environment, but because videogames haven't had decent stories in forever everyone thinks it's amazing.

Worse part is every time someone's looking for a good PS4 exclusive everyone recommends last of us. Makes me puke.

Also Bloodborne is my least favorite souls game. Still fucking great and I'd recommend it to everyone... But still my least favorite.

I think OoT aged extremely poorly.

I think Call of duty is best played on console, even if I prefer to play any other shooter on PC.

There are legitimate reasons for going console over PC, even without exclusives and anyone saying otherwise is a 'LE PCMASTERRACE' dumb retard that needs to go back to lerreddit. But I prefer PC myself (have PC+PS4) but I think someone going for a console over a PC is fine.

Nier is a fantastic game outside of the story and OST- the combat is responsive and feels great (especially after you get the 2h swords and spears) and the magic system adds a bit of depth and is very unique. The graphics, while not the best on purely technical level, have excellent art direction and I'd much rather look at Nier than any UE3 game. Even the sidequests are well written enough to be interesting. And as someone who has played both, papa Nier > brother Nier.

>>342039028
Dark Souls 2 is one of the best games released in the past five years and should be hailed as a modern classic. Still the worst game in the series by a large margin.
>>
>>342040140
I love RPGs, and I'm sad at the way Bethesda's recent games have been slowly turning into first person action games with shallow RPG mechanics thrown in. The games should be getting deeper and more complex as the series progresses with
>more dialogue options
>deep stat systems
>unique lore
>unique play styles and options for how to tackle challenges
>a rich and deep world
>a world that changes in regards to your decisions, be they big or small changes

One thing that upset me about Skyrim was how they fell into the whole "You are the most badass and important person who has ever lived, and you can eventually master every single skill in the game if you grind enough."

Idk but I just don't enjoy being a badass anymore, I want to be a normal guy who sticks to his chosen fields of study

I think Paradox games would be better as turn-based than in their space-bar mashing state.

Not only is constantly pausing/unpausing awkward, but the real-time makes timing of armies moving annoying, and you end up tediously chasing rebels around the map. Not fun.

Sexualization in vidya is pretty shit. Not because it objectifies women or some bullshit like that, but rather because porn is better for that anyway.
Instead, there are few other ways to represent violence or character interactions as well as vidya. Hell, games are probably the best media for fictional violence.

In short, vidya need to be more violent and less sexy because it's more fun that way.

I think FFVII is overrated and not all that great as people make it out to be and don't really care that it "brought more people JRPGs" because that just make it sound like the bottom feeding trash I felt it was. Also One Winged Angel is overrated.

I'm kind of in the same boat as you, and people call me a prude for it.

But I don't think shows need to show sleezy sex scenes, same as games, just for the sake of doing so.

If it adds to the plot or is handled well, fine, but it isn't most of the time and just becomes a cringefest, especially since I know how many people actually love it.

Watch Dogs is underrated, at least as far as online concensus goes. It (or rather Ubi) deserves the hate for the downgrade bullshit, and it deserves the criticism for the glitches and lack of polish it had at launch. But it's a neat entry in the genre and the environment control is a really unique twist for open world games that adds several more layers to the gameplay. The multiplayer was also almost seamless and had some fantastic modes like online tailing.

Looking at the game purely from a gameplay perspective, it offered a new twist on a well worn genre that works well, and while it did have issues like unsatisfying driving, there's a hell of a lot of potential for the series.

Sticker Star is the best Paper Mario game, and anyone who thinks otherwise is blinded by nostalgia.

The original is insanely boring and one of the most derivative RPG's I've ever played in my life. The battle system is tedious and uninteresting. The dialouge is full of forced 9gag tier humor and unmemorable annoying characters. TTYD takes all this up to eleven by taking all the problems the original had and making 1/4th the game pure backtracking.

Super Paper Mario is also pretty bad but everyone already agrees on that. Sticker Star had pretty much perfection in a Mario RPG:

1. No stupid pointless jokes, when they were present they were actually funny
2. One VERY well developed partner (Kersti) as opposed to like eight shitty ones
3. Stickers and the lack of EXP making battles interesting again
4. Fantastic 10/10 score
5. Traditional environments mixed with new ideas in order to freshen the series up
6. Best boss fights in the whole series by far
7. No filler BS or backtracking

Digital sales have killed gaming.

The ease of getting new games is making flash in the pan gaming more common and popular.

The stats presented from Steam about games and their popularity are disgusting and terrifying.

Nothing has any weight anymore because there's a massive over saturation, and Steam furthered this more than any console WW2 shooter did.

Most people aren't even opening the games they buy, and Steam uses predatory practices to ensure people keep buying from them.

They're not friends of gaming, but they used to be.

Any game that's not a VN would benefit in some way from a co-op mode.

Doesn't matter how little sense it makes in the narrative or how shoddily it is implemented, being able to play simultaneously with a friend can make it better. See also: Dead Rising 2.

Half-Life 2 is a bad game and if it wasn't so graphically ahead of its time would be treated as such, it didn't innovate anything, there was nothing new in it, and it was a large step back from the first game in almost every way conceivable. Alyx Vance is the fucking worst.

The blue sparkles are the absolute worst part. RNG collectathon bullshit that doesn't feel satisfying at all.

It looks like garbage too, and basically nullifies the somewhat interesting terrain.

Cut the items to 1/10 of what they are, hide them in chests throughout the world with varying challenges to get to them, platforming or otherwise.

The reason most games are forgettable now is because they make them too quickly paced.

Being forced to grind or repeat areas (without backtracking, because of failure) is what used to make people remember games and become attached.

This. By it's own merits, it was really really good, but in context with the rest of the series, it left too much untouched. The gunplay and powers were the best in the series, for sure, even if it is too short.

You mean pointless. No exp means no reason for fighting, you just waste stickers.

Because another grass, desert, ice etc world is much fresher than all the interesting new areas we got in previous games, right?

>Best boss fights in the whole series by far
Bring the one super powerful situational sticker or you're fucked. 10/10 boss design right there.

I'm pretty sure I remember tons of backtracking in SS, just to get 1 or 2 specific stickers to progress, and that haopens quite often.

Neptunia series is an autist's escapist fantasy. Something to shelter them from the flood of realistic, gritty movie games plauging the library.
