On occasion, people find themselves holding ideas about video games that are, to be blunt, massively different from the norm. This is the thread to post them, talk about them, and then defend them when everyone else inevitably jumps on you for it. I'll start off with a few. 1) Crash Bandicoot 1 is the best Crash game. 2) Dark Souls 2 is the best Dark Souls; DS3 is the worst. 3) Mass Effect 3 is the best Mass Effect. 4) Zelda II loving rules! 5) FF8 is better than FF6. Post yours! It's fun.

Glare Seethe posted:Brutal Legend's stage battles gameplay is legitimately good, fun and deeper than is generally acknowledged. Its biggest flaw is the obfuscation of the deeper mechanics (in particular each unit's strengths and weaknesses) and lack of feedback ("is what I'm doing actually working?"), yet that simultaneously serves as its biggest strength in causing each battle to feel like utter, random chaos. I actually agree with this; I thought BL would have been better if they focused more on the RTS stuff and less on the bad knockoff arpg gameplay.

Maybe consider replaying the original Halo, because good good, man. The Library?

That would own though Pablo Gigante posted:The problem is that “unpopular opinions” almost always translate to “X game that people like is actually bad and you’re a bad person for liking it” and it just contributes to the Gamesian trend of complaining about anything and everything I mean I'd hope that I had set the tone in the OP but like, ribbing people is fine but you can't really change someone's personal opinions on a game, you know?

I thought her story was extremely simplistic and constantly broke its own logic for "character moments" that ruined whatever it was going for. Who let this woman have a guitar during a police interrogation? Also you could solve it and hit the end of the game in less than four searches from the first couple of videos if you think at all about what they're talking about.

seiferguy posted:I never understood the cult love for Earthbound. It's an okay SNES RPG, but it has a clunky interface and a weird battle system. The dialogue is a little cute, and I guess people playing video games for the first time must have thought it was the greatest thing because it had small attempts of humor at a time when most games tend to not have humorous moments. The music was forgettable, and the Smash Bros Melee composition of Onett sounds good because it sounds nothing like the original game. I would easily come up with a list of 20 RPGs on SNES I would rather replay before that one. Earthbound really captures the feeling of being a kid on a big adventure, I think, which is why it's so beloved. Also the roller HP system is really cool and lets you do some neat stuff.

Tomba is a masterpiece.fridge corn posted:I will never play undertale Undertale really isn't that bad. The music is good and the game itself is pretty short, so.

precision posted:Is that really an outlier opinion? I seem to recall most people doing a 180 on that game pretty soon after it came out, and definitely by the time the sequel came out and was just "more of the same boring poo poo" People will loving fight you over Golden Sun despite that series being pretty bad, I honestly don't get it at all.
