I sold it so I could buy a DS Lite and I am very glad about that decision. 11 years later the drat thing still works without any issues, and Slot-1 and 2 flash cartridges made it one of the best systems of all time for me. How is this an unpopular opinion lol

The Multiplayer battle mode in Starfox 64 is more fun than anything baby's first TeamFortress 2, Overwatch, brings to the table.

It's a completionist thing, not a prestige thing.

CaptainSarcastic posted:incredibly persnickety achievements like the non-lethal run in Deus Ex HR. The only reason this is hard at all is because HR is a poorly programmed piece of poo poo that often decides that a tranq dart is enough to straight kill a dude. In the first mission where you rescue the hostages when you go through the warehouse part there's a dude smoking a cigarette off to the side and I've never been able to knock him out without the game just going "haha he's dead now." If the game worked right it would be easy as hell, even the intro (where it doesn't make any sense at all thematically not to kill the guys, but it still counts for the achievement for some reason) is set up so you can just kinda waltz through it without ever getting seen. bag em and tag em posted:Collect all the hidden documents! This is so awful. I'm not even against missable items generally but don't tie that poo poo back to an achievement.

On Missable Items: However good people think Final Fantasy 12 was the game was seriously hindered by the Zodiac Weapon for the gay twink fuckboy requiring you to not open 12 random chests located randomly throughout the game. Some of them were in the initial areas where of course you are going to open a chest. Nope. If you opened any of those 12 specific chests, out of dozens scattered throughout the game, you could no longer get the gay twink fuckboy's ultimate weapon. Adding something like that in that is completely impossible to know without a guide is a serious mark against the game.

Space Crabs posted:On Missable Items: I'm pretty sure you could still get it, it was just like a 1/1000 drop from a rare chest or something instead of a sure thing - so really, doing it the way you're describing could be seen as a bonus rather than the intended path. Definitely still a dick move but it's not like it was necessary to beat the game and I've always been a fan of super weird convoluted systems like that. The best part is that it's not 12 chests that you're supposed to avoid, it's only four - but one of those four is randomly selected from a group of 16 chests, so gently caress you for trying to open them. E: I should clarify that I'm a fan of this stuff *in theory*, this particular case is just a lovely way to try to force people to buy the strategy guide (which didn't have much information other than links to a dead website, haha)

The concert and the multiple hours of game time spent setting up for the concert was not an embarrassing waste of time in Final Fantasy X-2. Also Having to hit a specific button, without prompts, at a specific time, during a cutscene you only see once to get %100.0 game completion and the real ending was not complete bullshit.

When people bring up classic SNES/PSX RPGs but don't bring up GOAT Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars, then I feel like they must have soft brains. That game has CLASSIC & FUN combat, tons of fun stuff to do and explore, and adds dimensions to all these quiet, flat characters. So much so, in fact, that all sequels doubled back by making the characters literally silent pieces of paper.

the witcher games have their good qualities but the writing in general and especially the dialogue (highly praised by gameurs who have never voluntarily read a novel in their lives) is unbelievably childish tryhard poo poo. "oval office loving gently caress gently caress plow with the gently caress whores cunts. whores plowing gently caress plow, eh oval office? *burp*"

I feel that achievements can be a good way to measure your overall progress in a game, and give you interesting challenges to go after, but if there's one that's like "WIN 50 MULTIPLAYER BATTLES" then gently caress that poo poo. Not just an obsessive grind, but an obsessive multiplayer grind as well? Ugh

Unpopular opinion regarding achievments: I hate that the stupid monkey-retarded reward center of my brain lights up like a 4th of July barge on the Mississippi whenever the top left of the screen says some poo poo like "Lock'n'Load 6/10 (slay 10 warrior-bugs with a shotgun)". It snaps me out of the game and reminds me what a retard I am for playing it. Then I play it some more.

Related to that, games that I get through Steam but don't have achievements make me feel a little let down, and I feel stupid for it. It seems worse with games like Far Cry through Uplay, where I get their achievements but nothing on Steam. I get that little "woohoo, I got an achievement" followed immediately by "but it's only on Uplay so doesn't really count."

Gridlocked posted:WoW: Legion is the best WoW has been since the start of WotLK. Agreed. Even the writing improved. Well, okay, everything about the winged blind idiot who is supposed to be the expansion's big hero is their usual garbage, but everything about those weird ET-looking crackhead Elves and their shiny city was an amazing experience from start to finish. I don't know who's responsible for it, but if there's any justice in this world those people will rise to replace Metzen now that he's gone.

get that OUT of my face posted:the damage resident evil 4 did to the series outweighs the fact that it's a good game the series was already dead. they just reanimated the corpse and pumped it full of crack and lsd and let it do its own thing 4 can't be blamed for everyone having such a good time they kept trying to capture that lightning in a bottle. i mean poo poo, the game starts with umbrella already fallen and then we plummet into a hilarious b-movie rabbit hole of cheesy dialogue, pedo-bait, and horrific violence/gore. its a game that is so successful because it knows its played out so it takes the viscerally self-aware route and it actually works. i don't think they ever could have repeated what made re4 work so drat well. 5 was one of the biggest disappointments in gaming to me though. 4 was formative for me, so i was beyond excited for 5. 5 was…well, its best not to talk about it. edit: on second thought, i don't think they even tried to replicate the "fun" aspect of re4. 5 was just a gritty shooter thought bought into the tone that video games couldn't be fun and had to be super serious and christopher nolan-esque. . i never played 6, but i imagine they tried to over-correct. 4 was a total romp that somehow worked in a horror setting. it could still be tense, shocking, and scary, but it was also just endless fun RaySmuckles fucked around with this message at 04:15 on Feb 18, 2017 |
