I've always found the Uncharted 4/The Last Of Us/God of War 2018 to all be decent, but all those games are kinda lacking in imteresting gameplay and are basically the video game equivalents of "Oscar bait"

The last 10 years of pokemon.
Don't get me wrong. I love pokemon. but they aren't good games anymore at this point.
Okami. The graphics and audio are literally painful.
Most fighting games: combo inputs are fuckin stupid
Dark Souls 1, 2 and 3.
Deus Ex Human Revolution
GTA 5. <--- yeah, that's definitely my biggest one. held up as arguably the best game ever made, I was so confused playing it. It was kinda just shit. And the cars handle so. badly. which was weird for a game that places so much emphasis on cars.
Undertale. yeah, I said it. easily the most overrated game.
That said, I've mostly found that I tend to like the critically acclaimed games. For most of them, even if I don't like it immediately, I've found that after playing for a bit, it'll click and I'll go "ohhh. this is why people love it." That happened with breath of the wild.
Edit: Monster Hunter. I don't get it at all. The premise seems very appealing. But the gameplay is sooooo clunky.
:100-com:
:10000-com: A lot of nonsensical downgrades from Gta 4 in that game. Didn't have any of the charm either. The little bit of the multiplayer I played wasn't fun either.
If 6 is anything like RDR2 in terms of execution I think it will be fair if people gush about it. RDR2 isn't necessarily my thing but the execution of it is very obviously above anything else. If they do that in the GTA format what they come out with will be pretty great.
Yeah, it felt like they dropped a lot of the fun simulation effects like NPCs reacting realistically to different injuries and soft body deformation on the cars
People hated it when it came out no? I remember all sorts of complaints about how floaty it felt, I liked it at the time.
Have you played Legend of Arceus? I would agree with you wrt the mainline Pokemon games, but that game in particular was such a breath of fresh air. I like not having to do random battles, and I like having tasks that feel like actually researching the pokemon driving the gameplay.
:knife-threat:
Do you like Undertale or do you like the full length indie game based on a fandom of a fandom of a fandom of Undertale?
I think Undertale is such an easy 10/10 if you even kinda like JRPGs. The artstyle clearly has retro inspirations which I usually find insufferable, but the character and environmental design behind it rules. The soundtrack is consistently great, the jokes land, the combat is inventive and learning how to deal with the mechanics of each fight is wonderful. It also has the "murdering everything over and over is bad actually" message which, while done better in MOON, was done well. The worst part of it is the genocide route, and even that feels like a purposeful punishment for being a dick.

Genuinely don't understand how it's possible to feel this way
it's super blurry and the audio is garbled, no?
yeah the PS2 and Wii versions do have a bit of that bloomitis going on. I'd recommend at least checking out the HD remaster.
Definitely with you on the car handling and physics in GTA5. It was too easy to drive and took no skill at all. GTA4 had way much harder physics where the cars felt very different
:wut: i like me some easy driving, GTA 4 cars are so hard to turn. took me 100 tries to complete the Brucie race mission, used this mod and completed it first try.
You could tell Human Revolution was an unfinished mess
By gameplay, I assume you mean combat. It's designed to be a slow, high commit combat system where you kinda have to learn the monster's mannerisms and when to strike or retreat. It felt strange to me at first when I started World, but I'm all about it now.
yeah, that is what I mean. like, ok, lemme slowly sheath my weapon to dodge, etc etc.
You just got older, they're games for children and still accomplish their goal very well imo edit: within the context of the gaming hell we currently live in
bait
look if we're talking SNK pretzel inputs, sure, but KI still exists if you just can't stand them whatsoever
I know this was probably posted just to get someone's goat but unironically agree
I don't think the game has had a kind image past the year it was released. It's pretty common to admit it's unfinished and kinda shit.
"best game of all time" to people that engage with the medium on the same level as people who say The Avengers is their favorite film. I don't think even most fans of the series would say its their favorite.
bait
Its a game you play with a group of friends who aren't really great at other video games, and within that context the series is really fun. It's not my favorite but I totally get the appeal.
