-Full voice acting is the worst thing to ever happen to RPG's.

-I actually like Planescape: Torment's gameplay. The art, however, is absolutely terrible and ruins all of the weird/wonderful stuff that happens in the dialogue. Spikes, blades, comically large tits all over the place, and the 3D character models are really bad.

-I put ketchup on my steak. Whoops, wrong "unpopular things" thread.

From the hud to the box art it was impossibly bad art choice after impossibly bad art choice but I completely forgot about the giant tits every single woman had

You can always tell when a game is truly good if people, 100% unprovoked, have to bring up how overrated it is at ANY opportunity.

VATS is simply not fun. I'd like the Fallout games more if they were just straight-up shooters.

Complete opposite, VATS should be expanded and changed into a true turn-based combat system and should be the only way to engage in combat.

Thief 3 is the most enjoyable Thief game.

Dead or Alive 2 is a really enjoyable fighting game.

Not so much a 'gaming' opinion, but the first Silent Hill movie was pretty good.

Morrowind was cool because you could steal anything and kill anybody. Also you could drop stuff anywhere and it wouldn't disappear so you could basically set up housekeeping anywhere. I remember going "Hrm...I like this house, I think I'll move in" and just murdering the occupants and doing just that.

Is this an unpopular opinion? Making myself the official unofficial mayor of every town was how I spent all my time playing that game. I don't think I even attempted to follow the story for several years.

Resident Evil: Operation Raccoon City was the most fun I've had with an RE since 5 and I love the old ones. ORC is probably only fun though if you have knowledge of glitches and bugs to gently caress around with other players so they curse you out in broken English or Portuguese.

Breath of Fire IV is the best one in the series.

Undertale has cute art/characters and music but little else. It's definitely not a great game and hardly a good one but trolling all gamefaqs with it was pretty choice.

Suikoden 3 is actually very very good (but not as good as 2, nothing is).

SFV is not as good as Third Strike but better than that turd IV.

King of Fighters XIV is currently the best fighting game out right now of this current gen.

The first Silent Hill is the best one and the only actually scary one.

Ultimate Mahvel 3 has been the best FG out there since KOF XIV dropped.

Final Fantasy 5, 6, 9 and Tactics are the only ones worth playing.

Anji was scrub tier, I agree on Robo-Ky and Bridget but Revelator is seriously the best FG I've played in ages.


Pages and pages ago someone mentioned Buck Rogers RPGs and I'm sad that if they actually exist they're not on GOG.

I just have no drive to seriously practice new GG. I hate how all the characters look (Elphelt and Bedman are hideous), especially the newcomers. Also everyone has pony-tails now for some reason and characters like Leo just show how much their Blazblue designs/play-styles have infected all their work. I'm actually afraid to see what they'd do to Anji or Robo-ky.

Meanwhile I am loving KOF. It's not the prettiest game (a recent graphical update fixed a lot of stuff but not all of it), but it feels solid and has lots of customization for combos and set-ups and the 3 on 3 aspect of it just makes it that much more interesting. Also any game that doesn't have Zato-1 in it is going to be loads more playable.

all fighting games are equally as stupid, Smash just embraces how stupid it is while fans of the other series have to go on and on and on about hit frames, combinations, tiers or "exchanges."

Literal babies can beat fighting games.

The only gameplay they actually provide is giving people a feeling of doing something cool by translating baby smashing into cool actions that dazzle you.

Right now undead are at the top of my shit list. Undead are complete fuckers. Those geists are fuckers. Necromancers are fuckers. Necrosavants are big time fuckers. Skeletons aren't too bad except when they bleed everyone in the company. Zombos are at least not too bad.


Fighting games are garbage because in order to get the most enjoyment out of it you have to devote significant amounts of time to learning how to do complex, split second motions using muscle memory and having to do things perfectly all the time while somehow being able to notice individual frames like some autistic robot. There's no thought or strategy because you only have to know the inputs and the timing for the combos and poo poo. There's only one right way to do anything in a fighting game and it's loving lame.

Just watch any tournament, it's always a bunch of people playing only two or three of the fifty characters and only using one move or string of moves, forever. I saw a street fighter tournament that was just two people crouching in corners shooting fireballs back and forth until someone got hit. Every time.

Competitive smash players are shameful garbage. They are the worst of the autistic spectrum.

Starbound is actually a pretty great game and the only people that poo poo all over it are the people that anxiously followed it through it's long development time and can't stop being nostalgic for changes and features that were different in beta patch 0.024 versus beta patch 0.025 or whatever while blaming the game for not catering to their specific ideal of what it should be instead of self reflecting on the personal issues that led them to be so upset about a video game in the first place.

Contrarian autists that show up to go "Well I didn't follow development and i think it's bad" are equally as bad or worse than the first people because they are disagreeing to hear themselves talk.
