What are your gaming-related opinions that people call you a contrarian for?
DMC5 was shit
MGS4 is good.
GoW reboot is boring and too normal AAA, losing everything in the process that made GoW stand out originally.
I find nothing really wrong with the FNaF series. I like it.
I've never played a japanese game other than mario stuff.
Not just jrpg's and stuff. I've never played metal gears, resident evils, zeldas, nada.
In fact, I actually have played very few games.
The first metal gear solid is a bad video game especially by the standards of the era.
N64 had better games than PSX
Ocarina of Time is a great game.
Melee is better than Ultimate
Doom 2016 was boring. Not even bad, just boring.
I fucking HATE, DESPISE gravity rush
Witcher 3 is hardly as good as people make it out to be. People like it because it has numerous heterosexual romances and the devs put it on torrentbays to prove how based they are and people ate it up.
This is objectively true. However PS2 had better games than Nintendo's counterpart at the time.
I really do think DaS2 is the best souls game. Others meme. But I mean it.
Dragon Age Origins has objectively shit combat.
Botw is a genuine 0/10 game
you should not be entitled to a refund just because you didn't like a game, there should have to have been false advertising or something involved.
Agony wasn't THAT bad once they fixed and uncensored it and I think Succubus will end up being outright good
king of fighters is better than street fighter
legends of runetera is a decent card game
bunny hopping is cancer, arbitary inputs to increase speed is not good game design
there are good western VNs
I don't like Mario World, Super Metroid and Link's Awakening, but enjoy most games in their respective series. It's not something against the SNES since I like Yoshi's Island. I have mixed feelings about Super Star.
Ocarina of time is overrated mediocrity that has aged like milk. Link's awakening will always be the best zelda game.
>Botw is a genuine 0/10 game
I gave Botw a 6/10 which pissed off my friends a lot since they consider that a bad score. But I don't see why you put it so low
It was an oasis in 2015.
In 2015 it was an oasis.
Vast majority of japanese game output holds no appeal to me.
>All the Mass effect characters were one dimensional and boring and you have to be a full on sperg to feel any sort of attachment to them.
>Doom gets boring after the first few maps.
>Arena shooters lack depth and the repetitiveness and lack of variety is the actual reason why nobody plays them anymore.
>Subnautica is the only fun survival game.
>Assassin's creed black flag wasn't a good game.
>Bad company 2 is the best battlefield game to date.
>The original battlefront games weren't any better than the new ones, they were just bad in different ways.
I don't like adding mods to my game and I feel each mod you add makes the game less "real". I'm one of those guys who gets satisfaction by succeeding within the lines the game has set so when you start adding mods the lines and thus my goals start getting blurred.
>Ocarina of time is overrated mediocrity that has aged like milk
Isn't that every single N64/PS1 game?
I don't get BR games
Motion blur is disgusting and should never be enabled
Goldeneye was only ever "okay" and Perfect Dark was better in literally every way
Crash Team Racing was better than Mario Kart 64, and Double Dash
Counter Strike has always been a bad game but has never been more apparent than in Global Offensive
There's no point playing an RPG in "hard" difficulty since overcoming the "difficulty" simply means grinding for longer than if you were playing on fucking easy (there are some exceptions to this)
On a related note, difficulty settings in general are stupid - games should be designed around one difficulty and anyone who can't beat the game at that difficulty should just deal with it
Mordhau is easily the best game of 2019, not because it's a particularly fantastic game, but rather because there was not a single other good game released
Silent hill Homecoming was the third best Sh game, behind 2 and 4
I don't like Half Life 2. It's gunplay is shit and so is having to stop every 10 minutes to do a physics puzzle just because Valve wanted to show how fancy their engine was. Also being locked in a room with NPCs for 5 minutes while they talk is a cutscene, no matter how hard Pcbros try to convince you otherwise.
A wii nunchuck like device should have replaced the keyboard years ago.
>V*lvedrone is censored
I liked the AI in Persona 3, and I think party control was a mistake in Persona 4
>having to stop every 10 minutes to do a puzzle
did you not know what you were getting into after playing the first half life? the only difference is this time there's more FYZIKS
>being locked in a room with NPCs for 5 minutes while they talk is a cutscene
I have never heard anyone try to pretend otherwise
First actual contrarian opinion in the thread. Enjoy your Marin Karin memes
>I thought MoP was a good expansion when it was live
>Clear Sky is quite good
>Gothic 1 is the best Gothic and Vanilla Gothic 2 is better than NotR
Party control in EVERY game is a mistake
If you're the leader in your group you should be able to give commands (e.g. attack this, defend here, heal this person, etc) but the minutia should be handled by the party members (if they're attacking something but see an ally is low health, they should go heal them - likewise if they're at low health they should retreat)
they should also be more/less willing to follow orders based on approval/loyalty/whatever
N64 had more of the best 5th gen games but PS1 had way more 7-8/10 games.
seems more like a casual lifestyle than a contrarian opinion.
i don't know
Skyrim is the best TES
He man Revolution is a better game than Deus Ex
Plot helps vidya and can be as important as gameplay depending on the genre
Most recently, Doom Eternal being a good, not great game. I got tired of the repetitiveness around mission 9. It's genuinely all style, no substance.
Aria of Sorrow is mediocre and Circle of the Moon is the best GBA Castlevania.
>it’s your fault for not knowing it was a shit game from the beginning
>games don’t have to be good, you just have to be okay with the fact that the game was shitty
The physics puzzles were shit and you know it. And having to drive around in that fucking go cart for half the game was shit too. Worse than Rage.
>Subnautica is the only fun survival game.
it was my first game i refunded on steam
WoW time:
Warlords of Draenor was better than Battle for Azerite
Burning Crusade is overrated
Legendary weapons should have been made to scale so that they'd be useful up to the new max level even before Heirlooms were a thing - Sulfuras or Thunderfury for example should have become equivalent to a level 70 green or maybe even blue when TBC was released
The last good armor designs were in Cata, since that expansion added some armor that wasn't stupidly overdesigned like everything else has become
Dual Spec was fine (switching between all specs at any time was not)
LFG tool was fine (dungeon finder was not)
Argent Tournament is one of the best raids the game has ever seen
ALL SOULS AND SOULS-LIKE GAMES ARE SHIT
i thought mass effect 2 and 3 were fine even if 1 was better and 3's ending sucked
i don't like animal crossing and having a billion threads about it is expected but still annoying
i've never liked smash, i played a bit of smash64 and melee growing up but i probably only put a few dozen hours in each
starcraft 2's campaign was fun and the co-op mode online is underrated
diablo 2/lod has never had a good spiritual successor
Half Life 1 was much more a series of puzzles than actual combat
Half Life 2 is extremely similar but they're physics based instead
what the fuck did this one (1) person mean by these replies?
that's very popular opinion between casual players
I love the last guardian and genuinly think its a 10/10
If you're a guy, playing as a girl in a single player game is fine, but in an online game it's weird
>Not liking Persona 5 because everyone except the teacher was basically a super villain lex luthor type of character
>Persona 4 had better plot than persona 3 because it kept things in a small scale and very PERSONA-L without really world bending stakes
>I think SMT nocturne beats every final fantasy game out there in terms of plot, gameplay and aesthetic except maybe 12 or tactics
>I think smash bros ultimate is a meme game that everybody forces to be a competitive fighter when it is in fact a kids party game
>Dead by daylight is a good game, but should not be made competitive because it's basically tag with extra rules
There's not nearly as much difference between F3 and New Vegas as people like to pretend
Based and redpilled
I played trough 50% of Dark Souls (i guess 50%) and got bored out of my tits.
After beating the lava spider lady below blight town i got the sentinel, walked down and at the capra demons i just said "Fuck it" and uninstalled.
>inb4 git gud
The only fight that took a tool on my patience were the gargoyles, i blazed trough most of the other bosses in 2-3 attempts (capra demon + dogs as well), i just don't think that wandering slowly and getting hit in the face with a hidden rake trap every 20 steps is a boring way to set me back and waste my time.
>NPC is unconscious.jpg
I stopped after defeating fat and dumb
Demon souls and bloodborne were so much better than dark souls
i was bored during the demo
couldn't get into it either
witcher games aren't fun to play
disagree but soulsshit needs to fuck off already
>Sekiro and BB were so much better than Dark Souls
ftfy
Half Life 2 wasn't that good. No I'm not a zoomer, I played HL1 (superior game) before 2 came out.
Final Fantasy XIII is one of the better Final Fantasy games
I never played sekiro so i cant say anything about that
the real tragedy was the lack of good hentai. half of it is SFM garbage and there's barely and fang/vanille yuri.
Alot of people think like that
Gameplaywise its true but i still enjoy the mix of story and gameplay from hl2 more
Shitting on half life 2 is not contrarian anymore, everybody on Yas Forums retroactively diminished the impact it had on the industry at the time and now it's a bad game
Nier Automata tells a drab and by the numbers story with basic bitch Platinum gameplay to accompany it. If it weren't for robutt this game would be in the bargain bin
I hate HALO because it's one the XBOX and it was the source of the dudebro retards into gaming.
That alone makes the XBOX the shit console, that got even worse with the CoD franchise, that made them become the duderbro, the upgraded retardation.
Playstation and older Nintendo were the real gamers, both hardcore and casual. Both a shell of their former self, now battles the already lost war of
games went to shit after 2012 generally, and it was better when it was a niche hobby.
i know it's not that controversial, but it makes my normie friends scream.
RE4 is the worst resident evil and a fucking awful game regardless of the franchise.
For me its somewhere around 2008 or 2007 when it really went downhill
would be fun to compare with age. In 2012 I just turned 17, and I guess I didn't care too much about new games after that.
I played Halo CE back in the day and i thought it was garbage
It does nothing that HL1 didn't do better, and they completely lost me when they started recycling levels to pad out the campaign
5 identical, huge, empty floors of the library were so fucking shit to play trough, i still remember it as one of the worst parts of any game i've ever played
Black Mesa is the superior version of Half Life.
