Unpopular Gaming Thread

Based on the Unpopular Opinions Thread on the Game of Thrones section, basically the same thing as that thread except for gaming. For example I prefer to play this:

  • I don't understand this thread. Your example doesn't give us much to go on.

  • Umm That's not unpopular. Pokemon in all its forms has been big since 1996.

  • Is that top picture Earthbound/Mother or Pokemon? Anyway..

    So do we post opinions that we have that are unpopular? or games that we like that are unpopular?

  • It's one of the old pokemon games.

  • Arkham Origins > Arkham Knight

  • what i am trying to say is like, do you like something other gamers dont like, do you have thoughts about a game that is in the "Minority".

  • I liked Jurassic Park: The game.

  • Murdered: Soul Suspect is one of my favorite games. This doesn't seem TOO unpopular despite what reviews might say, though.

  • I didn't love the Bioshock games.

    I like the game Vexx...

    And I don't see whats so wrong with Resident Evil 6, its not as good as the original (I've always prefered the more Horror-orientated ones) but its still pretty good in my opinion.

  • I prefer RE 2-4 more than the newest RE's also the same with pokemon, I hated Pokemon GO but I liked the old ones.

  • Arkham Origins is better than both Arkham Knight and Arkham Asylum.

  • I don't like Borderlands. (Enjoyed Tales from the Borderlands though)

  • I meant I prefer to play Poke: Red today over Poke: Go

  • Dragon Age II is the best game in the DA Series in my opinion.

    Sam & Max > Anything TTG post-S&M

    Also:
    My most hated video game developer is Gearbox(nothing against anyone whom works there below Randy and everything against Randy).
    I did not like Mario 64
    I dislike all Zelda games
    I liked Dragon Age Inquisition a lot

  • I did not like Mario 64

    When it was new, or just more recently?

    And I'm curious to why you hate Randy and Gearbox so much.

  • A little off topic, but your picture is pretty hilarious.

  • I thought Life is Strange was crap for the most part.

  • I'm on the same boat.

  • I would say Arkham origins was better than Asylum. From a gameplay standpoint, Asylum doesn't hold up well compared to the later entries.

  • Im fed up with telltale games, I know I should gtfo, they are way to easy to the point of being boring once it sunk in that choice didn't have much of a impact I stopped caring about it and just choose whatever I might get a laugh out of. Basically gameplay is too easy choice has no weight the games aren't challenging in the slightest there is implied urgency but its fake there is no point panicking or worrying about anything so its dull, I watched a friend play michonne he was getting wrapped up in it and panicking I envied him because that ship has sailed for me the illusion doesn't work for me anymore all I feel is apathy.

    I love the forum though and walking dead season 1 changed the way I looked at games but like I said the illusion has stopped working

  • Me too.

    When it came out. It wasn't bad. It was that awkward 3D phase where you knew it looked shitty, but hey, 3D!!! I was disappointed it wasn't a side-scroller and the game just didn't do enough to win me over with the controls being uncomfortable as well. It remains my least favourite Mario game.

    As for Gearbox, it's a long story, but it has to do with Randy being too much of a cut-throat businessman trying to act like he's not, plus a bunch of bogus PR stuff, blah blah. It's nothing against the company itself or their products. The man is just a douche bag.

  • at the end of every episode you are presented with your choices. I played wds1 as it was released there was huge emphasis put on the "choice system" they did imply it mattered and I think they even out right said it mattered.

  • I Know Right!

    A little off topic, but your picture is pretty hilarious.

  • Just like this guy.

    I thought Life is Strange was crap for the most part.

  • Provided Youtube Links.

    Rise of Flight + Verdun > Battlefield 1

    BF1 is but a pretender when compared.

    Mount & Blade Warband (Gekokujo) > Total War: Shogun II

    Commanding my Ashigaru and Samurai while fighting shoulder to shoulder with them is 100x more thrilling and satisfying than commanding armies from a top down view.

    1. The Last of Us is a great game (I'm only talking about on these forums. Everywhere else, they treat it like it's GOTY 2K13)
    2. Overwatch sucks and is really overrated.
    3. Pokemon GO (and Pokemon in general) sucks and is also overrated.
    4. I dislike RPGs with the exception of the Mass Effect trilogy and South Park: TSoT.
    5. Half-Life, Portal, Left 4 Dead, Counter-Strike and Team Fortress (franchises, not just one game) are all overrated.
    6. GTA 4 > GTA 5
    7. Telltale's Game of Thrones is one of the best games ever made by Telltale or any other gaming company.
    8. inFamous: Second Son < inFamous 1 and 2
    9. I don't want a Wolf Among Us or Tales from the Borderlands season 2. I like the way they ended; BOTH OF THEM.
    10. Sleeping Dogs > All of the Grand Theft Auto games combined.
    11. Oxenfree is overrated.
    12. I hate Five Nights at Freddy's and Call of Duty (if this wasn't unpopular, why are the fanbases for those games still alive?)
    13. I dislike all Borderlands games except TFTBL.
  • Oh my god, I'm not the only one who HATES Zelda games! Good. I find them so boring tbh, don't see the appeal.

    I am really young though, and honestly I was only old enough for video games until the Wii came out. Maybe it's because Skyward sucked.

    I'm not serious when I say that, though. Wii Sports is nostalgic to me in a weird way, lol. I was 7 when it came out

    Too young for N64, but from playing it on an emulator, I have to say I disliked it very much. But that could be because there was Super Mario Galaxy to compare it to. That was amazing. Although the game has not aged well, looks all jagged and pixelated. Nothing like the N64 graphics though, N64 games look like a 12 year old made a game on scratch with google images.

    From what I've seen in the gaming community, these opinions are extremely unpopular. You're free to disagree but don't flat out call me an idiot like other forums have when I've said these opinions.
