Sunshine Jesse Posted September 11, 2012 Report Share Posted September 11, 2012 I didn't like Twilight Princess that much. I thought the last 2 or 3 dungeons were absolutely boring and the wolf sections were bad. The rest of the game was a blast but that's still 25% of the game right there I hold a distaste for.

Umbra Posted November 11, 2012 Report Share Posted November 11, 2012 I think there's a difference between not liking a certain [i]genre[/i] of games and not liking a particular game. There are a lot of genres I don't find myself playing that often, like MOBA-games and modern FPSes like CoD or Battlefield. However, as far as specific games go, I can't really think of one that I don't like that I've actually played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tentacruel Posted November 11, 2012 Report Share Posted November 11, 2012 Yeah, this entire thread is pretty much a "look at what a hipster I am"-fest. That being said, update: I find it hard to get into the Tales series as it seems like a lot of button mashing to me. I'd rather have a turn-based system to be quite honest.

❤ Lovely Warrior ❤ Posted November 13, 2012 Report Share Posted November 13, 2012 The Dragon Quest series. All the art reminds me to much of DBZ and I hated DBZ and so when I see or play the games they leave me with a bad taste in my mouth becuase the art style is pretty much exactly the same and it feels like one big DBZ spin-off. Any Sonic game after Sonic 06. Hate the solo Sonic and boost2win gameplay. Any realistic sports games. Just not my thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susie Posted November 14, 2012 Report Share Posted November 14, 2012 I never really had gotten the chance to play a turn based RPG game, except for the Epic Battle Fantasy games and an old PS1 game called Eternal Eyes. I loved them so much, though it is quite terrible to know that people just look at it as a technology limitation, I have ADHD and even I have enough of an attention span to play a good old turn based RPG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
?someone? Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 I think the thing about turn-based combat is, as far as I've seen, it's generally been considered a negative aspect by critics. Usually it's knocked as repetitive, an exercise in going through the motions; I can't quite disagree. A more involved approach to the system is usually reacted to positively, and developers just go with it. I personally like both turn based and action-oriented combat, and while we've been seeing a lot more action-oriented than turn-based ones lately, the style will not die out. And I'd hardly blame it on attention spans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larxene Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 [quote name='Comrade TentaSparkle' timestamp='1346937955' post='6020190'] But everyone hated that. [/quote] I didn't. The only 'bad' thing about it was how linear it was. But the main point of FFXIII was its story, which was one of the best of any FF game really. So while I sort of get some of the complaints about it, I also think that the FF fanbase in general is just completely idiotic. Every post-FFVII game gets ridiculous amounts of hate anyway, because the FF fanbase is large divided into two groups. The nostalgia-f**s who don't like any game after FFVI, and the FFVII fanboys who don't like, well... Anything other than FFVII. The only FF game after VII that doesn't seem to get any hate is IX, which is oddly enough one of the only ones I've never played and can't say anything good or bad about. (Other than the fact that I'm not fond of the art design, but whatever.) So to be honest, 90% of the FFXIII hate is just the result of butthurt fanboys and nostalgia-f**s. Both of which are awful people. But onto my list: [b]Most FPS games.[/b] It's not that I hate them, it's just that I'm generally awful at them. Now, I don't mean shooting games in general, because I actually tend to like a lot of 3rd person shooters. (Dead Space, Red Dead Redemption, Jet Force Gemini, etc.) And there are a few FPS games I DO enjoy, like Timesplitters 2 on the Gamecube. But yeah. I don't hate them, I just suck at them, and therefore don't find any appeal. [b]The Mass Effect series.[/b] Yeah, I suck at them. So it kinda falls under the first category for the exact same reasons. I'm also just a little bit scorned against it because my younger brother monopolized the PS3 for several months playing these games MULTIPLE TIMES, and preventing me from playing anything at all. So my opinion of these games is a bit biased for that reason, so I probably shouldn't even count these ones. [b]The Tales Of games.[/b] Oh boy, look at this. Another series of games I suck at and therefore are not fond of. But to be perfectly fair, I actually really don't like the battle systems of these games. They just aren't my thing. I don't hate the games by any means though, don't get me wrong. I've tried to play a number of them before, (Graces, Abyss, Symphonia, and one other one on the PS2 I forgot the name of) and I just couldn't get into them. I think I might've actually enjoyed Graces if I had gotten a bit further into it though, the battle system didn't annoy me as much. [b]Knights of the Old Republic and Dragon Age.[/b] I'm grouping these together because they both seem nearly identical to me, in terms of gameplay. I have tried to play both of them on a number of occasions, only to get extremely bored after the first couple hours and never touch the game again. In general though, I tend not to favor games that essentially require multiple playthroughs just because of how your actions affect the story in relatively trivial ways. Maybe it makes me seem a little close minded, but isn't that sort of the point of an RPG? To take on the role of the characters in the story? Not make the main character a self insert of yourself? I actually much prefer to have an actually well developed main character, not one that I just make up for myself who has little to no actual dialogue of their own. At least in Pokemon, the main character has no personality, but the gameplay is fun enough that no one ever actually cares or complains. I never really found the gameplay to be particularly outstanding in either of these games. ... Honestly though, I actually can't think of a single game off the top of my head that I outright hate. Most of the games I don't like, I just plain suck at, or dislike the battle system in some way. I agree with Umbra though. I do miss the good old turn based RPGs. I think I wanna go play some FFX.

But yes, Final Fantasy has one of the worst fanbases in gaming. [/quote] Probably because it's a combination of 1) length, so it has many generations of fans, 2) a bunch of different combat systems (by analogy, Mario and Zelda both only have two, their 2D and 3D incarnations), and 3) different characters in each game + they're story-based. How many people are going to argue whether Ocarina of Time Ganondorf or Wind Waker Ganondorf is more badass? Well, that [i]has[/i] happened, and I admit to having participated in that argument, but I think fewer people would participate in that argument than anything FF-related. Although the Cloud of Darkness is way cooler than Kefka. Wait...what? If you step back and pay attention to the big picture, you can actually watch the general opinions of the internet fluctuate through the passage of time. Going back to Zelda, Ocarina of Time's god-tier status has plunged, respect for Wind Waker has soared and love for Majora's Mask has positively sky-rocketed. With Final Fantasy, FF4 is positively ancient and FF7 pretty much committed suicide by Advent Children and/or Crisis Core. This has left a gaping void too large for FF8 to fill, leaving FFX to rise up like demonic space-whale and take over the fandom, while the smarter, more attractive people stick with FF9. Or something. Look, I just talk about Final Fantasy, I don't [i]play[/i] it. The generational river flows on without cease. In another three to five years I suspect Twilight Princess will cover Wind Waker in a choking darkness, and FF12 will...airships?...FFX. And the cycle continues ever on...
