Ocarina of Time is the best 3D Zelda.

I think Dark Souls is extremely overrated.
worst character in the series, and anyone who denies this is just another autistic furfag
I get that people like Juri and her new costume, and thats cool and everything, but its impossible to look at her without hearing "Ahhhhh! After 10,000 years I'm free! Its time to conquer Earth!"

>>343238848
Games can rely on story rather than gameplay and still be good. Gone Home and Life is Strange are both great experiences
>>343238271
I don't care about censorship, nor i do not think it should affect the quality of a game as long as it is not part of the core gameplay, i don't think the recent cases of censorship or localization have butchered any game. I even went so far to look this games up on YouTube and i didn't note any worthwhile difference
I do not support censorship but i also do not support people overreacting to it. Censorship recently has been used as a marketing strategy to make a game popular (i.e: Overwatch)
I guess you could label me as one of those people that say "It's only censorship when i care about it" but to be honest, the moment i start caring about this on a videogame is the moment where i should probably stop playing them
I hate nintendo, just because his fanbase/fanboys are anoying as fuck.
Legend of Zelda series sucks
The Witcher 3 is one of the best RPGs I've ever played, and the combat isn't even close to being bad. People hate on it just to be contrarian.
I'd rather discover games on my own instead of asking a bunch of fat losers what I should play.
>>343238271
A degenerate porn game actually made me cry.
>>343238271
DmC is the best game in the series because it has a better paced story and character while still retaining the action gameplay the series is known for.
Dragon Age 2 is one of the top ten WRPG of all time because of its innovative approach to the characters personal story and it's fun character dynamics.
Final Fantasy 13 is the best game in the series for its nuanced battle system and it's incredibly philisophical take on the nature of free will.
Skyward Sword is one of the greatest Zelda game by focusing on a character based narrative and the relationship between the two leads.
>>343239678
Seconded.
I never once listen to a person's recommendations and I only play video games if they look cool/fun to me.
>>343239184
he's right tho
Link's Awakening is the best Zelda game, and way more "dark" and thought provoking than Majora' Mask.
Nintendo makes Zelda only for the western market since it sells like shit in Japan. They don't really understand its appeal so they just make the same game over and over with some minor innovations here and there.
I really fucking hate whenever someone mentions a game and they go like
>[insert game here]
>good
then another anon posts
>[insert same game]
>[insert the opposite of OP's opinion]
>both sides won't explain why they think that way or try to justify it
It's just a trend that wasn't as bad before of people just saying "X is shit because i say so", there are good games that i do not like, but in that case i just say "I don't like this game" instead of just labeling it as shit just because i didn't enjoy it

Except for the last 10 years, they have been trying to get Japan to like the games. Especially look at SS and HW and tell me that wasn't them trying to appeal to Japan.
>>343240502
>core
means a piece of media or an experience that the board you refer to considers a "must", or at least a high recommendation. For example, "/v/core" refers to a plethora of games /v/ universally considers good, Terraria being /v/core meaning that it's something /v/ can simultaneously agree on being worthwhile and fulfilling.

>>343239236
Gone Home didn't have a good story to fall back on though. That being said I'm totally fine with walking simulators but their story is mainly the only thing that needs to be excellent.
The only good thing Gone Home did was the atmosphere and examining detailed key objects
Generals/Zero Hour is/are much better than Red Alert(s)
Minecraft, in short doses, is comfy as fuck and it has one of the best soundtracks in any game ever.
The new Doom was actually a good game, and i loved tearing through it.

People exclaim it as a masterpiece and perfect. I played Demon's Souls before it and was woefully let down. It feels more tryhard ("prepare to die", really?), the lore is so obscure it hinders the game while in Demon's it was straight to the point and you as a player knew exactly what your mission was and what to do. The game is hard in a boring, grindy way and I hate how the combat feels. It's not as fast or smooth as Demon's. It's a downgrade in too many aspects. And I expected something truly fantastic when I booted it up.
Oh, and then there's the horrible elitist fanbase who seem to only play Dark Souls and nothing else.
>>343241039
>character builds
well its a metroid game duh, you have linear item progression despite some sequence breaking, it's always all the same item with some toggleability/and beam combinations/shields
>fluid mobility

>>343241232
I think you're describing a lack of narrative in that case. The story is still there and its delivery thorough a weak narrative fits the game very well. Similar is some ways to how Dark Souls makes you feel lost and confused its narrative delivery, but has a very good story anyway.
Undertale is actually a good game with funny writing, even if you played it before the tumblr brigade got their hands on it. That's not usually true of shit they like, e.g. Sonic, FNAF, Homestuck, etc.
Probably the biggest reasons I can think of to hate it are Sans being an edgelord and all the furry characters, whichare actually not true at all. Sans isn't even remotely edgy except at like, 2 specific moments unless you go out of your way to be a fuckass and murder everything. Otherwise he's maybe the most laid-back motherfucker there ever was. Also, this game is no more furry than Mickey Mouse is. That's 100% furries sticking their own crap in there.
I don't wanna sound defensive or anything, but honestly it's like hating paintings just because Hitler painted at one point. People overreact to people talking about UT a ton. Really dumb reason to hate something that's actually pretty cool in its own right. If you actually tried it and don't like it, fine. But honestly I imagine half the people who hate this game haven't even tried it or seen it played and just assume it's some sort of SJW manifesto and flip a tit.

Again, I think these points are pretty unanimously agreed on. I support them, even though I enjoyed Wrong Number.
>>343241417
>I played Demon's Souls before it
You might just prefer the way DeS was designed, anon; I've played them both, and they both have different strengths and weaknesses (neither is my favorite, that one's Bloodborne).
>"prepare to die, really?"
That was a marketing gimmick, come on.
>The lore is so obscure, it hinders the game
I don't see how that's possible. It doesn't negatively impact the game, unless you *really* care about what's going on, and, if that's the case, you'd likely pay attention to enough details and item descriptions that its obscurity wouldn't hinder you.
>the game is hard in a boring, grindy way
...alright. I don't see how DeS was much different.
>the horrible elitist fanbase who seems to only play Dark Souls and nothing else
Yep. 100% agreement on that.
To be clear, I'm not saying you're wrong; I can see why people would prefer DeS, but some of your points confuse me.
>>343241704
I don't really think most of the hate for Undertale is about the actual game, but the cancerous community. I enjoyed it, even way more than I expected to, but now I actually am a bit ashamed to admit that I did, because the people who played it after it became a meme are just autists and SJWs, and people are afraid of being associated with those degenerates. Everywhere you go there are gay drawings of the characters, furry shit, stupid fanfics, and every other autistic thing you can imagine from people who get way too invested in a game. I enjoyed playing Undertale, but I don't think I can enjoy if I try it again.
>>343241704
Undertale isn't one of my GOATs, and I don't think it did anything particularly new, but goddamn if those boss battles weren't amazing.
It's a shame the fanbase is shit, 'cause that game deserves a following.
I feel like Fromsoft had a story for Dark Souls, but it got scrapped and now the fanbase gobbles up the scraps, excusing any need for a comprehensible plot.
Any plot besides 'go from A to B and kill shit along the way'.
>>343242151
It's my rantings and ravings. Fair enough if someone loves Dark Souls but holy crap, after Dark Souls 3 I'm glad threads are a rarity because they were otherwise constant.
I think the lore, and actual story, is too obscure. At one point I shrugged, lost interest in the game because I realized that I didn't actually know what my character's motivation could possibly be. I'm killing all these things but I don't fucking know where I'm heading.
>>343241832
And then there are these people who invalidate your opinion because you prefer Demon's.
>>343241590
I'm sorry if it triggers you, bruh.
The Last of Us is an absolutely spectacular game.
Half-Life 2 and Ocarina of Time have aged like fine wine and deserve every bit of praise they have received.
CoD was a decent series up to Black Ops 1. Everything after that is complete shit.
Tracer is far and away the best Overwatch girl. She's cute, spunky, assertive, has an adorable voice, and is a ton of fun to play.
Uncharted is a well made but extremely dull series.Dan Avidan is funnier than either Arin or Jon
>>343241265
Only the first opinion is unpopular
>>343240670
>since there is no unanimously accepted game.
For a couple of day, Undertale made this a lie in /v/except /v/ now wants to forget that now because it's now cool to admit the game is an overhyped piece of youtube fodder
>>343242442
There is a solid story in dark souls, it's not their fault you're too braindead to understand it, anon.
>>343241520
Not that guy and I don't like either of those games, but you autistic get WAY too hung up on the semantics of what's a game.
Like, I remember enjoying the telltale walking dead game a lot. I don't care whether you classify it as a game, or an interactive movie, or a choose your own adventure novel or whatever. In the end, it was still a very enjoyable experience.
Same goes for MGS games. People get mad about the cutscenes but I enjoy those a lot. You guys say dumb stuff like "if you want to watch a movie go watch a movie". In my mind, the desire to be entertained doesn't have to be mutually exclusive to games or movies - sometimes I just want to play metal gear interspersed with watching metal gear.
>if you want to hear a good story read a book
What if I don't want to read a book? What if I want to play a game and still enjoy a decent story.
Like, somehow in your robot brains everything has to fit into these exact categories and it's impossible to just want to have an entertaining experience.
>>343242015
Maybe for a time. But I think we both know that shitposting always finds a way.
>>343241880
I can't see where I said it was a good story, so stop looking for a fight pls. Same goes for saying it was a good narrative - I only said it suited the game, in terms of mechanics and atmosphere.
>>343242064
I never claimed you said the story wasn't there, although the "still" make it seem like that, sorry. I was just suggesting that you disliked the way the story was fed to you, which seems to be a more common issue than the story itself. That is, aside from those who take issue solely on account of the topic. Topic doesn't make it a better or worse story, but it is played well with everything else.
The Witcher 3 has terrible sidequests and it would actually be fucking amazing if 90% of the content wasn't based on following red shit. It would actually require some basic intelligence to beat.

And you're living in a fantasy. I played undertale on release and I never liked it. Not trying to sound cool or contrarian or anything (especially since on this board it would be contrarian to actually like the game).
Like, the music was good but the writing was a bit cringeworthy at times and the combat was pretty boring. Also the movement speed was waaaay too slow and the puzzles were so simplistic that it was pointless to even include them.

When did I say games can't have good stories?
I'm sorry I'm so autistic that I believe "video games" should put "gameplay" first and foremost over storytelling. Metal Gear Solid is a fine series, and it has terrific stealth action; The Walking Dead was okay, at the time, but Telltale kept milking its formula for adaptations, so it's no longer nearly as good.
>>if you want to hear a good story read a book
Or watch a decent television show, or a really good movie (admittedly hard to find these days).
Games can be more than what fits in the categories of my, apparently robot, brain, but shoving ham-fisted stories and dialogue up their asses isn't going to do a very good job.
I wish I could just be done with video games and get some real hobbies and make some friends, but am too set in my ways to ever change myself for the better, I feel like my entire life has been a waste and that the easiest solution is death.

It was either that or nothing. Disney was chopping down on licensing. Notice how you can't even buy the game now. They released an updated version before Disney pulled the plug. I was a later adopter, so 40 bucks for the game didn't really bug me. We got a much better game out of the deal. Wasn't there a 20 dollar upgrade option?
System Shock 2 is a bad game and I have no idea how anyone can call it an RPG. The only redeeming qualities are the melee combat, movement speed and map design (excluding The Many which had the worst map design I've ever seen).
Sonic Dark Brotherhood had a great battle system and although the music and story sucked ass, it should have gotten a sequel to match that bullshit cliffhanger ending

Whether a game puts gameplay first should depend on the game and the goal of the creators. Not everything needs to have good gameplay. Like I said, I liked the walking dead and that doesn't have good gameplay. I like ace attorney and that has almost no gameplay. I also like games with no story and a focus entirely on gameplay. Games are one of the most versatile mediums in that regard.
I'm not saying you need to shove unnecessary stories into a game. I'm saying that if a dev wants to tell a story, and they think that video games are the right medium to do that, then they should go ahead. Take Catherine for example - I really enjoyed that game and I don't think it would have worked better as a cartoon. The ace attorney and person 4 adaptations prove that they work better as games than cartoons.
On the other hand you've got games like Asuras wrath that are so unfun to play I think it would have worked better as a cartoon.
Nonetheless, the point still stands that games don't all need to conform to some dumb standard and developers should make what they want.
I have played 200 hours of Fallout 4 and have purchased all of the dlc separately.However, Fallout New Vegas is my favorite game of all time if I had to name one.
>>343243581
Liking video games doesn't have anything to do with your lack of friends. I own over a thousand physical games, and I live the normie life. I have several dozen friends with a handful of really close friends who I hang out with all the time. I go to parties and have fun. I have a girlfriend who isn't interested in games in the slightest. I'm well on my way to achieving my dream job. I'm not trying to brag here - I honestly just think I'm a normal guy. I'm just trying to point out that it's not video games that are holding you back. You don't need "normal" hobbies. Hell, I spend all my spare time that I have alone playing games or watching movies/anime. Most of my time spent with my close friends is either spent talking in resaraunts or playing games. Games aren't the problem, anon.

I think it's way more pathetic than the way you've phrased it.
Anime girls and video game girls turned grown men into schizophrenic retards with a childlike love for imaginary character. Character who they can only have had a few hours of dialog with at max. Characters who barely even resemble real people and are just a bunch of polygons on a screen: and these people spend all day thinking about how they want to fuck this imaginary character. And then, even if she did exist she would just ignore him like every other woman has throughout his pathetic life.
I think Dark Souls 3 is at least on par with the original. Sure it's admittedly more of the same but the gameplay and level design are both top notch and it makes it really fun to play.
Though my perception may be colored a bit since I played it right after playing Dark Souls 2 again to try SotFS.
The community part of any game network is pointless, and only any good for me to talk with little boys.

It's literally just a fictional female character you really like/are attracted to/whatever. It's supposed to be a joke but some sad people are weirdly serious about it and have taken it waaaay too far.
I picked battleborn over overwatch because of meme reasons I heard on /v/
I think Vampire Bloodlines isn't that great, it's full of great intentions and ideas but the execution is not that great.
To be fair it's fun enough for one or two playthroughs, but I don't understand what people see in it to keep replaying it ad infinitum, it doesn't even have that much content to justify it.

Look, you can believe I'm making stuff up if you want but I was telling the truth. 4chan isn't actually some secret club for social rejects. I've been coming here since I was like 15 and have lived a normal life. Watching cartoons doesn't impede your ability to talk to girls IRL. Seemingly people who can't talk to girls seem to be really into these cartoons, but watching them doesn't suddenly cause some kind of brain degradation that turns you into a social outcast.
In the real world, not in your imagined conception of the real world, nobody cares what your hobby is. If it's something REALLY abnormal like collecting life size dolls of women or something the yeah, people might be creeped out. But if you hobby is just playing games and watching cartoons then you're in the clear. Hell, the most popular guy in my entire high school who has no doubt fucked more than 200 different girls in his life and who would be defined as a "Chad", liked Fullmetal alchemist and one piece. If you're a confident, socially capable person nobody cares what you do in your spare time.

I'm not a big fan of anime yet my favorite show is Monogatari. I really like the story, music and presentation. When I posted about it here people told me that it's a total waifubait. I can understand why, but I never liked it for that reason.
>>343245540
That's what confused me, too many people took it too seriously. I can understand jokes and having favorite characters, but being "loyal" to waifus and shit like that is fucking weird
>Mass Effect 1 was the best Mass Effect.
>>343245624
>This is what normalfgas actually believeHe's right though, it's not liking anime/video games/whatever that makes someone a social reject, it's things like a lack of confidence and social anxiety. It's just that people with such things tend to gravitate towards these sorts of hobbies. And even then you can still make friends and have relationships as a socially anxious person
I think feminism is the future, society must become matriarchal if we're to survive
Nintendo is right. If you want a Mario RPG, play Mario & Luigi. By changing Paper Mario into a Puzzle-Adventure series, we have more variety. They can't change M&L because it's an RPG at its core, while Paper Mario at least has the Paper aesthetic to fall back on. Sticker Star was going in the right direction, but was flawed in execution. I believe Color Splash will correct these flaws and will be a great game.
>>343245624
I refuse to believe anyone likes one piece
>>343245943

>>343245852
Being loyal to waifus is also part of the joke; if calling someone your waifu is a jokingly affectionate way of saying they're your fictional girlfriend, then being unloyal to your waifu/having multiple waifus/whatever would mean you're cheating on her. It's not actually a big deal or anything it's just part of the joke. But once again, some people are actually serious about this shit.
The only reason why 80% of anons here are lonely is they believe that they're pathetic, sad fags

But that's wrong; being paper isn't part of Paper Mario's core, it's something they shoehorned in later. The original had almost no paper jokes or elements except maybe Mario falling like paper once or twice, and in TTYD it was just used for little bits of humor like the curses and little scenery things. Even in Super it was more about changing perspectives; it was until Sticker Star that shit got really stupid

Most of the stuff that you said is true.
Truth is that vidya, weird porn and anime don't really influence your view on life - you do, by thinking that you're a weirdo because you like these things.
I got laid when I was 16 and I started browsing this board back in 2008, when I was 14. I've had over 5 meaningful (6 month+) relationships since then and I like weird shit. I have a couple of folders with gfur, futa and Metal Gear r34.
It never really influenced my life.One of the girls that came over found my buttplug.

Tell me what kind of game Mario & Luigi would be if it wasn't an RPG? At least Paper Mario could revolve around it's aesthetic like Kirby's Epic Yarn.

True but making every demon 1 of 4 identical builds killed the gameplay worse than smirk ever could
This is mostly a reply to frequent complaints I see.
I think Drakengard 3 gameplay is very fun. I'm almost done with Branch D, and the only thing that's really felt repetitive was the major boss fights after you've figured out a good strategy, since the AI changes very little. Otherwise, the weapon varieties, (4 types, 3 sizes in each, plus unique movesets for some weapons), grant a satisfying amount of versatility and combos.
I've never thought about the environments being bland while playing, but the graphics are still very meh. However, the FPS dropping was rarely an issue.
Paired with the story, characters, etc, I'd give the game an 8 out of 10. A good game, mostly flawed by its occasional FPS killers, (Dragon Airstrike), and sub par graphics.thanks for reading my blog :^)
>>343246490
Waifus are the hot meme these days
>>343238542
I'd give it an 8/10. 6 if I didn't know what I was doing, but since I know where to find the fun it's 8. It seems like the only games I enjoy have overly simple mechanics and game-breaking bugs, and Dark Souls sure got that shit.
You're probably right about it being overrated for how simple and straightforward the game is. Picking up garbage and doing math can be a lot of fun, and once you know where everything is you get to be like some kind of fantasy park ranger. I don't think anyone who played Dark Souls extensively would disagree with you. Everyone I've talked to seems to particularly enjoy the filthiest, most unbalanced mechanics so that probably says a lot about how it is best played.
Obviously I haven't played Demon's Souls but as I understand you can't hike to any point on the map right from the start. That shit is broken as fuck, but it's a lot of fun to explore out of sequence to produce different characters. I'm not really sure how to explain this, but you don't really "play through" the game, it's more like box of toys you can fuck around with in a million different ways. It's open-ended and there's just enough multiplayer interaction to justify tooling around with the mechanics and items.
Does this make it good? No, but a lot of "sandbox" games play the exact same no matter what you do, while Dark Souls changes a lot when you play different characters. For a lot of people with nothing better to do, it is a very good platform for making your own fun. Basically the game gets better if you have autism.
It's completely understandable that someone would simply not find this to be enjoyable. It doesn't help that a lot of people claim to love it for literally no reason and advertise the parts that have basically nothing to do with the game. In that sense it's severely overrated.
Overwatch is a much more balanced and competitive game than TF2 even with huge projectile hitboxes, and the only reason that's an unpopular opinion is because /v/ is full of contrarians that are shit at both.
Before you reply... I've played more comp tf2 than you have. Just trust me anons.
>>343246719
Nah, it gets pretty good later on
I don't see people talk about it here, so I'm not sure if this is actually unpopular, but I think the original Half-Life is better than Half-Life 2/Ep1/Ep2.
Paper Mario Sticker Star is a fun game.
>>343247386
It is unpopular, but a lot of people didn't really play HL1. A lot of "4chan video game intellectuals" completely agree with you.
>>343246941
That would be great for Paper Mario fans but terrible for Mario & Luigi fans. The choices are to either A) Axe one series upsetting it's fans B) Have two series with the same idea being redundant and making the mario series oversaturated with RPG's C) Change one series to be completely different, still upsetting fans, but less than if they had just canceled the series.
>>343247745
No, paper mario fans would much rather see their series die than turn into this awful garbage.
Sticker Star wasn't just a bad PM game, it wasn't a good game in general. Better for the series to die gracefully than live as a complete shell of its former self.

I shamelessly loved Skyrim and intend to buy the remaster at launch.For console.
>>343246202
I feel like that's less to do with Paper Mario and more to do with the Mario series in total. Look how bland and sterile Mario Party 10, Mario Tennis US, and NSMB are. I agree that the Mario series needs more personality.
Minecraft is the most disappointing game since Spore. Nearly every update following the change from Alpha to Beta has been bad. It's basically pointless unless you're 12 or under or have autism.
The PC release for Dark Souls was the worst thing for the franchise, because it made it overexposed as fuck, sending it from "Fun, niche, challenging game" to "THE LEGEND NEVER DIES!" and shit.
Nintendo first party games aren't worth the console purchase, but the consoles have no other worthwhile games. If Nintendo only made third party games, like Capcom or Sega, they would EASILY dominate the third party market.
Stellaris is the best Early Access game I've ever played.
F2P/cheap games with cosmetic purchases aren't bad. They're fantastic. It's only bad when it's a game that locks you out of content, ie Payday 2.

On one hand, that is definitely annoying. On the other hand, a lot of people who try to elaborate end up just describing characteristics of the game and insulting anyone who's not into those things.

I love how the entire characterisation of Doomguy is how he exists solely to fuck up demon shit. He's literally broken into Hell and damned himself for all eternity just to fuck demons up.
Complex characters are great and all but damn if I don't love the simple shit too.
>>343247898
Why? It doesn't erase the old PM games from existence. If the old PM fans don't like the SS direction then they could just not buy it. I do think SS had some serious flaws, but I believe color splash will fix the vast majority of these issues. If they had found a way to make sticker star without it being apart of the PM series, would it really make you feel better?
>>343240706
Sicario felt a bit underdeveloped.
>>343238271
I agree with this. All things considered, it does the pixelshit style pretty fucking well, the game is bloated with content, it's great fun, has seen various free content updates, and is STILL cheaper than other subpar indieshit out there.

Remember when Paper Mario and M&L games took turns releasing alternately every couple of years, and neither of them conflicted with each other or felt superfluous or anything, and it was okay to love both series?
At this point, I'd rather just see one of the two series be killed off than have Paper Mario's dead rotten corpse paraded around like this. And believe me, I'd feel just the same for M&L's sake if Paper Mario had stayed the same and M&L became the bland meme gimmick game.
>>343250050
>Das2 >>>das1 >>>>>>>>das3the best unpopular opinion
>>343250151
I understand your opinion and respect it. I still look forward to color splash and believe it will fix a majority of gameplay issues from SS. I personally would trade one of two RPG series for a puzzle adventure game. The only problem is, I feel like CS won't fix is how bland it's become, having too many toads and not enough fun characters. I feel as though this has been plagueing the entire mario series though, rather than just PM. Examples include Mario Party, Mario Tennis, NSMB, 3D Mario games, and even the Mario & Luigi series. When the mario series gets its personality back, then so will Paper Mario.
"hipster games" like braid and walking simulators are pushing gaming into the right direction. Bird brain anime shit has held back the mediums potential for to long and created a generation of emotionally stunted man-toddlers.

I think the character situation doesn't bother me as much as

>DUDE PAPER LMAO
Actually, anyone remember this game? I know it's not the most well received game(hell, this post can count as an unpopular opinion in and of itself, because I fucking loved it as a kid)and I know it wasn't much of a "party," but the story mode was almost like a Mario RPG lite, honestly. The game only had like 2 or 3 OCs throughout, but every inhabitant of the world was one of various standard Mario enemies, ranging from well known (like Goomba, Koopa, Bob-omb, Shy Guy, Thwomp, etc.) to way more obscure ones (like Dolphin, Salvo the Slime, Lantern Ghost, Mr. I, even the fucking owl that you can fly around with in Mario 64, etc.) that are all unique within the world and have their own little subplots that make them stand out. Even if the new Mario games want to stick with established characters, there are a LOT more characters at their disposal than a sea of generic Toads, but they just never use what they have. It's a shame.
>>343252287
>because I fucking loved it as a kid
so did I but a recent replay proved to me that it is really not a whole lot better than its metacritic score.
>>343252287
I loved that game. It's only problem was there were not many mini games. Also, I hope the boss battles will be real battles that lead up to a point where you need a weakness. The cohesive overworld doesn't bother me much. It's a bit like Mario RPG LotSS. I
>>343252417
I know it's not a particularly good game by any means, but it was pretty unique and charming for what it was, or at least I think. Getting dice chains to move around the board was fun, and the minigames were alright, but I really do think the main thing I liked about the game were the characters.
Like I said, the way they characterized random Mario enemies made it feel like a Mario RPG lite, and if the new Paper Mario games could take a page from Mario Party Advance's book and have sidequests like those that take advantage of the huge amount of enemies from Mario's history, it would be a huge step up from "lmao Toads everywhere and nothing else! This green-spotted Toad is different from the blue-spotted one, are you satisfied?!"
>>343238271
I think MGR: Revengeance is really overrated. It's ostensibly a fast-paced ninja game but then they said "lets make every hit stun you for 10 seconds with a QTE prompt lol."
It's not even a matter of GIT GUD SKRUB because the game isn't hard, since even if you you get beaten down you have 5-10 Full Revives that go off automatically if you drop to 0 hp.
Blade Mode is a gimmick that's only really used in an interesting way in the Sundowner fight.
Ninja Gaiden for the XBOX did it better 10 years before it
>>343252773
>Also, I hope the boss battles will be real battles that lead up to a point where you need a weakness.
The E3 gameplay showed Morton being nearly instakilled by a fire extinguisher the moment he sets his hammer on fire. The future is not bright for the boss battles.
God of War is trash, has always been trash, and always will be fucking trash. It fucking confounds me how Hideki Kamiya and Tomonou Itagaki hold it in such a positive light when it always just took what DMC and NG did, but did it far worse, then added some awful QTEs, an unlikable protagonist, a dull plotline, and a shitton of gore. It never did QTEs well either.
1.3 and 1.3.1 were ultimately pointless updates that mostly just updated the quality of life and added unnecessary variety to a game exuding variety.
All it really added was lunatic cultist + pillars + Moon Lord, and 1.3.1 added some cool wiring mechanics I will absolutely never make use of, because I don't spend more than 20 hours on any given world.
>>343253143
That's a shame. I like the idea of bosses being puzzles but I want more of a real battle with puzzle elements, like having to fight a boss until a certain point where you need an item or an insane amount of skill. I hope not all bosses are instakilled. I still look forward to the fact that there appears to be some kind of level up system now.
gamers whine too much about censorship
Regardless of what you think of Overwatch or Undertale's popularity, they're both great games. The average "hater" of both games is more obnoxious than the most extreme fanfag of either. Tumblr and little kids can be ignored by not going to Tumblr or Youtube. The hatebase for both of those games are extremely vocal with their displeasure of both.
Unlike most people here, I actually really like all 4 Uncharted games.

Markiplier is an entertaining Lets Player.Though admittedly he can sometimes be a bit grating, I still for the most part like his personality. Five Nights at Fuckboy's is my favorite series of his.

Creative Assembly did nothing wrong.
Paper Mario is dead. However, the Paper series still has a lot of potential, though, and a Paper Zelda or Paper Kirby game could be just as good, if not better, than 64 and TTYD.And for my real unpopular opinion: I think TTYD is better than 64 because, while it had lower lows, it also had way higher highs. Glitz Pit, Cortez Island, and all of the cool shit you do in Rogueport is far more interesting than Toad Town.
Okami and Wind Waker are the best 3D Zelda games. The openness is what makes them so good.
However, I don't think either match up to the first 3 games. Breath of the Wild looks like it might be the first Zelda game to top A Link to the Past.

I think Starbound is on the right track of being a decent game now but people are choosing to not to have fun with it just due to the early bad rep. Seem like no one fucking remember when Terraria was literally just a 2D Minecraft clone. Starbound didn't do any worst than Terraria, the only issue is that stupid people got hype up for a game that was still a WIP.
>>343241704
Saying Undertale is inherently good is not an unpopular opinion. In fact, it's the norm.
I suppose my opinion is more unpopular, because I literally hate Undertale and I think it's trash.
I could go on about how it literally made me angry, something a video game hasn't done in two decades, but what's the point? You'll just call me a troll or a hater or say I have terrible opinions, so I'll stop here.
I prefer consoles over PCs because of how much of a shit hole Steam has become with early access and green light. I bought an xbox one instead of getting a PC when Microsoft announce games would release on both.

Halo 2 was the best Halo
>>343238271
That's not an unpopular opinion at all. Terraria is one of the best games in terms of value and playability when it comes to pixelshit.
Now here's one. Half-Life 2 is one of the most overrated games of all time due to having less weapon variety and enemy variety to the original, the long as fuck vehicle sections and unskippable "playable" cutscenes. The guns for the most part feel like shit with the fun guns (magnum and crossbow) having limited ammo making you use the dull assault rifle, SMG and shotgun combo. It's also pretty much the catalyst that started the whole cinematic dogshit FPS genre that is thankfully going away slowly.
Half-Life 1 was a far better game.
Star Wars Battlefront has been more enjoyable for me than Doom, Street Fighter V, Uncharted 4, and Dark Souls 3.
