Lets share those words that would make /v/ livid

Undertale was one of the greatest games of 2015. Its story was great, humor was charming, and gameplay was fun
CS:GO is just as good as old CS, and one of the best FPS games right now. The people who hate it most likely play CoD
The singleplayer for the new Doom looks like shit and I actually think viral marketers are making it out to be good
There is no reason to own a console when PC does the same for cheaper
>>
i won't spoiler mine because i'm not a faggot

FEZ and The Witness are good games.
Uncharted 3 > 2 > 1 but they're all bad.
Traps are gay.
There are 0 good sonic games.
>>
>>336075431
>FEZ is good

Do you happen to work for Porygon?

Everything else is 100% correct tho

But all those things are true

But their are tons of console users on /v/
Also, all of the Doom threads have been filled with praise for the game, saying it will save the FPS genre and how the haters are entitled manchildren

STALKER: Clear Sky, despite being the DS2 of the series, is a good game if you don't try to compare it to anything else

I agree with most of those except

and

I don't think any of those are unpopular.
>>
>>336074968
1, 3, and 4 are pretty much universally agreed upon except for by shills, shitposters, and extreme newfags who weren't here before it got popular, when it was adored.

LISA would have gotten the same if it had become popular, but it's still niche so LISA threads are usually positive and low on shitposting.

>>336075639
Likewise with Uncharted 4. Paid shills come to /v/ and /pol/ constantly, and /co/ and /tv/ sometimes too.

Sticker Star is underrated. It's a terrible Paper Mario game, but looking at it on its own, it's really pretty good. People need to stop comparing it to its predecessors and appreciate it for what it is.

Regardless, I'm pissed that the new Paper Mario is looking like the same shit. I liked Sticker Star, but I loved the original two infinitely more. Fuck you Nintendo for giving us more of the good, at the expense of the great.
>>
Dragon's Dogma is fun, but highly overrated.

Dark Souls 2 was a good game and gets more shit than it deserves. From tried to do something heavily different and not all of it worked, but some of it did. It has the best magic in the series hands down.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with Minecraft outside of the community. 1.9 is pretty ass but the core game is good and the breadth of mods is glorious.

Modded Skyrim is a very, very good game. Morrowind is not the best TES by a long shot.

>>336075704
DS2 is the same way, so that still applies.

Fallout 3 had more immersion than fallout 4 or fallout nv. It was also a more complete game.

Dark Souls 2 is objectively better than Dark Souls 1.

SuperSmash Bros. Wii u and 3ds has a bunch of copy paste characters.

Monster Hunter is a legitimately boring as shit series. The Hunting genre is already borderline skinnerbox bullshit to begin with but the farther a game strays from Monster Hunter's ideas the better. The gameplay is as slow paced as you could possible create and getting to the gameplay is tedious as shit. While iconic the monsters also haven't had good designs in years.

I'm fully convinced the people super into Monhun have some fucked up Stockholme syndrome going on because every time someone goes super defensive they admit they have some 2000 hours in one game despite the fact the SAME GAME will be released a year later for another shitty Nintendo console.

You speed up the combat three fold, have an array of monsters and play styles that actually back up the fact the only thing in the game you fucking do is fight bosses, and make the entire process a lot more smoother getting to that core gameplay and maybe you've got a decent enough game where I wouldn't call you autistic for sinking in several hundred hours.

It's not good to become stronger for doing well in a game and weaker for doing badly, because that just makes strong players stronger and weak players weaker and making a game fun is largely about having it so that if the player puts in real skill and effort at any point they can succeed, but the player can't succeed so well that they'll eventually just be winning without effort.

So being stronger for being on a killstreak, or being able to make the enemy weaker by destroying something makes it so that even in the first few minutes of a 30-minute round of a game the winner will often be clear, since as soon as one team is more powerful, not only is that team probably slightly more skilled, that team also has an advantage on top of that which is going to get bigger as time goes on.

PM:TTYD is extremely boring and way too easy. Super Paper Mario is better.

Dark Souls is a PVP game, not a singleplayer game. The bosses are just there to give you new gear or to farm souls so you can PVP better.

Monster Hunter is a horrible series that I'll never understand why people like it.

Mass Effect series is the best shooter RPG ever made.

Fallout NV is an awful game. It feels less like a post apocalyptic game and more like you're just walking through nevada with giant scorpions. I never felt like I was playing a fallout game during it.

Dragons dogma is boring as fuck unless you play as a sorcerer and abuse tornados and meteors.

Fighting games are objectively the worst genre out there. Overcomplicated controls, tons of memorization, tiers, combos, and needing to dedicate hundreds of hours just to get into the bare minimum of the game is not fun at all.

Doom is a shit game and series. It was never fun and never will be, it's just praised because of how original it was at the time.

Mobas are extremely fun and have a high skill ceiling while being relatively easy to get into.

DmC: Devil May Cry is a fantastic action game and is in some ways superior to games like Metal Gear Rising which people adore.
Star Fox Adventures is a good game and is better than Star Fox 64.
Final Fantasy XIII is great and one of the better FF games.
Nier is the closest to perfect a video game has ever been.
Square Enix is the best existing video game company.
A video game with furry characters is more interesting and enjoyable than one that does not have such characters.
Zelda games and Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix should be the games that melee oriented games should strive to be like combat wise, as they offer better melee combat than any other video games that currently exist.
Skyward Sword was a fantastic Zelda game and A Link to the Past is a mediocre Zelda game.
Metal Gear Solid IV is the best MGS game.
Wanting lolis in video games does not make someone a pedophile.
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon games are just as good as some of the highest regarded JRPGs out there, well worth being comparable to games like Final Fantasy VII and Xenoblade Chronicles.

Star Citizen is a scam by its very definition.
Evolve is a good game that "failed" because of misinformation.
Vanilla WoW is inferior to modern WoW in everything but age.
Amnesia: a Machine for Pigs is the scariest game in the Amnesia lineup.
The Witcher 3 had too much content for a game that was supposed to put an end to the trilogy.
Antichamber is one of the most innovative games created in the last decade.
Sleeping Dogs does GTA better than GTA

Aside from a few things Dark Souls 3 is barely on par with 2. At least 2 actually tried to do something different rather than just jerk off over Dark Souls 1. I still don't understand the hypocrisy of everyone who bitches about Dark Souls 2 having too many 'guy in armour with oversized weapons' when that is almost the only boss type in all of Dark Souls 3.

I still enjoyed Dark Souls 2 and 3 very much but the circlejerking over 3 when it is an endless rehash and absolutely derivative of 1 is just insane.

Those first 3 are fucking abysmal and 6 makes me think you are either bating or a furfag

The thing I like most about it is the gameplay, actually. Needing to keep your character alive specifically can make things more tense in some cases. It can make the game easier or harder, but when its harder as a result that's kind of cool. I like how units constantly move around the battlefield rather than staying still, as it makes timing a bit more important in battles. When you attack can determine whether you hit or miss your enemies as well as how many enemies you hit. It can determine if you even hurt your allies if you're doing something like throwing a grenade, I believe. I like that timing emphasis, and figuring out what paradigms to switch to when feels very rewarding for me.
I also like Hamauzu's soundtrack. Tracks like these in particular are my favorites:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jLbULEiuFgo
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b1VCYzCucl8
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z8hAVJFqzIw
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CuN5S-6J3r4
There are other things like about it. Even the characters, for various reasons, but those are the most appealing points for me.

>The Witcher 3 had too much content for a game that was supposed to put an end to the trilogy.

Story dragged on far longer than it should have, could have finished at Kaer Morhen and would have been fine. As for content, I guess there's a continuity thing with the expansions, but I guess they can wave it off by saying Geralt did them after the main story.

Gone Home gets shit on because of the poor story and hour to dollar ratio. I mean, it's not necessarily a bad GAME, but the creators put a lot of effort into making you care about a lesbian romance that ended with two terrible people running away to Mexico.

There is far more variety among the Pokemon characters.

Modern WoW is fine, it just has a different appeal than vanilla WoW.
Demon's Souls is the worst Souls game, still great though.
Trying to appeal to different demographics than the core gamers who've always been into it is a good thing.
Gameplay doesn't have to be the most important part of a game.
