Uncommon/unpopular gaming opinions

Fallout 4 is a very average game at best.

It's a pretty damn good game IMO, but compared to 3 and even NV, it's just so average and dumbed down.

Hope Elder Scrolls 6 isn't a dumbed down Skyrim.

Halo 1 is the worst of the series, the flood being introduced is the point where the game just falls apart and becomes a clear out waves of enemies before moving to the next area, rinse and repeat. Less said about having to revisit a certain area but in reverse, the better. First half of the game is solid though.

I have nothing to compare it to to be honest. It's the first Fallout game I've played and I don't normally play these type of games. The last game I played along similar lines was Red Dead Redemption years ago, I did enjoy that one.

Skyrim itself was dumbed down, a lot. Bethesda are going less RPG more action with their games, rightly or wrongly.

I think RPG and third person shooters are blending together, a dumbing down of the classical RPG formula and an expansion of the open world shooter, leading to so many 3rd person/RPG style games. It's just the industry trend.

I'm a pussy who needs regenerating health in a sandbox game so I enjoy Saints Row more than GTA these days.

 

[edgie]

Nope.

Open world games should always rely on health pickups, it was the only thing I didn't like about RDR.

 

[The Big Sauce]

I think GTA V gets the mix right in this regard.

Half of your health bar regenerates, but you need a health pick up to return to full health. So you're not completely screwed in any given situation.

Arkham Asylum is the best Batman game out of the 4.

Agreed.

Telltale games... Do people really enjoy them?

I'm kinda with you on this one. I played The Walking Dead... it was only ok IMO. The world interaction is just way too simplistic for me. The only other one I would play would be Borderlands because I love the franchise and for the humour.

 

[FISTO]

I tried playing The Walking Dead but it just wasn't for me, it put me off the rest of the Telltale series tbh.

 

[ioppolo]

I'm not sold on the Batman series with Telltale. They don't wanna do their style of games to death.

The only redeeming part of their games is their stories. Wont take long until everyone is sick of their games.

I'm really loving Battlefront since I picked up it back after updates and patches, it should have still released with more content but gee, what it has still makes it a brilliantly fun online shooter. Well worth the price of purchase.

Hearing the opposite of that opinion everywhere.

I guess its the perfect post for this thread then

It's as if it is an uncommon/unpopular gaming opinion!

Which part is the opposite?

Woops. I thought this was the battlefront thread. Carry on.

that's why JRPGs are the best, they're Japanese as * and RPG as * !!!

Most of the yearly mainstream AAA releases are boring, uninspired and really not that great. People need to start demanding a higher quality of game.

 

[Quivorir]

Yeah like more 2d platformers!

Might need to elaborate so we understand your tastes and position.

 

[LukasTheGreat]

He's right. COD and AC series have stagnated from being revolutionary IPs to just meandering through yearly releases.

 

[Quivorir]

Thats 2 AAA titles...The rest?
