So yeah, TF2 is just the overwatch of pre-2010 and your nostalgia is lying to you.

TF2 was an actual game; Overwatch is a wind-up music box with only the illusion of interactivity

I never understood the point of Counterstrike. It's the most generic shooter possible, but you buy stuff between rounds? And everyone plays the same map a billion times? What's the appeal?

quake started the trend of smaller groups of enemies with higher health, quake is number loving zero

Everything about Witcher 1 is absolutely terrible. The game has no redeeming qualities of any kind.

Mario Galaxy actually sucks compared to 64. Although Galaxy has a lot of creative, colorful ideas in it, 64 has a wider space of actual gameplay. Galaxy is literally on rails half the time.

I think that people with autism interpret Sonic differently or something. This isn't even a joke, I think with the speed and memorisation and patterns and simple expressive animal people faces, it just appeals to the autistic brain

This makes a lot of sense.

I don't understand Pokemon at all. It's the shittiest part of a JRPG - tedious turn-based grinding - somehow made even slower and more repetitive than usual, without a story or characters or an interesting setting behind it. It's like someone tried to design the lamest game possible.

Why are you grinding in pokemon?

That's the only gameplay there is? Even the critical path is just trudging your way through generic roads, mashing the same menus over and over.

blizzard is a poo poo company and they can polish a diamond into sand.

This is well put. They come up with awesome ideas, then keep streamlining them away until there's nothing exciting left.

They're more worried about avoiding mistakes than landing successes. The result is smooth but completely dull.

Games where your experience is so reliant on other people performing is guaranteed to be toxic, for now and for always. MOBAs are a special brand of competitive team game where you can personally play well and still get stomped because of somebody else's mistakes, and that makes people very angry.

If that wasn't enough, there's also competition for certain roles in the game, and you're reliant on people picking lineups that have synergy. It's designed from the ground up to make you vulnerable to other people playing ball, and when you're with internet strangers that is guaranteed to not happen consistently.

paradoxically that is also why they're popular: you can always blame someone else for your defeats. Being personally responsible is stressful.
