Resident Fascist Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 Every game has them. Some are good(Arcarna Heart) some are bad(Sonic) Some whine all the time(Guilty Gear) and some honestly are ignorant(Street Fighter) discuss fanbases in general.

burnpsy Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 From a monetary standpoint, it doesn't matter how b*tchy the fanbases are for good series as long as they keep buying games. That'll still keep the series afloat regardless of complaints. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blake Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 All fanbases suck, because they all have the wackadoodles that complain =/ [quote name='Doctor Whooves' timestamp='1321931207' post='5658465'] I found this to be racist, hilarious, and correct, all at the same time.

[/quote] You seriously need to ask? Off the top of my head, they appear to want: No playable characters other than Sonic (nevermind that they praise Sonic 2, which has Tails playable). Levels to not require skill (if they do, they claim it's bad level design) Sega to ignore the existence of all Sonic games that they don't deem to be good (i.e. most of them, which was their main complaint about Generations) Etc. They're the poster boy for unpleasable fanbases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] So essentially what most people do? Just because 1 group of people is more prominent doesn't mean the entire group does it. I could care less if sonic isn't the only character, I for one like Sonic Adventure (outside the easily noticeable plot holes that don't matter really) People who say levels are bad game design don't deserve to play games. Haven't played Generations yet so no comment. And as Black pointed out, people complain at the most retarded stuff for EVERY game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burnpsy Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 In general, they're louder and more spread out than most of the other fanbases, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Just Crouton Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 I have this weird habit of coming across Megaman fans who want the series to stay Megaman 2/ Megaman X, and claim Battle Network/Star Force aren't real Megaman games. Megaman fans are close-minded to innovation/change and want the same game over and over but will complain that Battle Network was the same game over and over. That's the issue I have with 9 and 10. We got sliding, wall-jumping, dashing, special armor, and charge shots, and then Capcom takes all that away and makes a stone-age game (that I want to play.) I don't hate 9 and 10, I hate the idea that taking a franchise that has evolved so much and putting huge limitations on it is lame. I give 9 a pass because it was meant to be a nostalgia trip, but 10 is just history repeating itself over and over with Megaman sequels just being the previous game repackaged with new levels and a couple new things.
