Super Mario World > Super Mario Bros 3


Eliminator Boat Duel (NES) is an 8-bit masterpiece and if you ain't played it well gently caress you buddy

Wait do people actually think super Mario bros 3 is better than super Mario world? 🤔 🤔 🤔

Fire Emblem is a trash hybrid of dating simulators and extremely simplified tactical combat. I don't know why it's so popular.

Civ 6 has a ton of major problems and so did Civ 5.

I will ABSOLUTELY hold that Civ 4: Beyond the Sword is absolutely the best Civ game. Is this even an unpopular opinion?

Yes because changing the spaces from squares to hexes and getting rid of unit stacking was a massive improvement

This is the normal reply but I'm going to call bullshit. Why? Because the AI can't use the hexes right and the multiplayer sucks.

I mean right AT ALL, the AI literally still has no idea how to use a loving hex. So basically they swapped to a tactical hex system over a square system that game itself cannot handle and only the player can exploit and I think it's assss despite liking hexes better.

I'll take squares that the AI knows how to move through.

Meh I never fired up a Civ game for a challenge, it was more of a chill out game for me. I always played on a difficulty where I had to pay attention to what I was doing but was never in any real danger of losing. I was fine with the dumb ai cuz it was fun outwitting it and winning often with inferior forces

I just hate spending hours to build up a proper army then face an enemy that sends it's general ahead of it's army followed by 1 swordsman a turn for 3 turns..

Also the AI in Civ 6 has no idea how to tech up and the fact they NEVER drop a grudge makes them intolerable. The fact you can't pacify city happiness is balls. gently caress 5+6.

Turn the difficulty up? 🤔 idk about Civ 6 haven't played it

To keep with the Diablo theme, Blizzard in general has been complete garbage since the 90's with the exception of Starcraft being sort of fun. actual Warcraft is dead, WOW is the stupidest game I've ever seen, Diablo sucks, and Overwatch is a boring crap shooter that just ripped off another game with the worst fanboys ever, and created fanboys that are somehow even worse.

It's all true

I will let y'all know about the places in Boston that were improved by the apocalypse. I'm guessing the airport is #1.

BOS has really shite duty free shopping and there's no bars, if you want a drink before your flight you have to be seated like at a restaurant :wtc:

I was over at the inlaws the other day and my sister in law got out their old ps2 and was like fridge corn is really good at games, I bet he could beat fur fighters for us, which is some cell shaded 3rd person shooter with colourful cartoon animals and anyway I was like sure but as soon as I started playing it i was like nope no way and put the controller down cuz the control scheme had the look and move sticks reversed and none of the preset control layouts had it set up like every single game in the last 10 years ever. It was literally completely unplayable lol

I guess my unpopular opinion is old games really suck

No game can be “overrated” because that means you think too many people think something is good, which isn’t a criticism of the game but of the society the game is released in, and therefore isn’t a reflection of the game or its qualities.

Saying something is “overrated” is shorthand for “I don’t like a popular thing” and that is literally the only information that statement is capable of providing.

I think stories in video games are entirely over rated and I think game balance is the most important part of a game.



Twelve Batmans posted:

Story is very much over-valued in games and people who think games have amazing stories probably don't read or consume anything else with much narrative value.

These are good opinions
