What is your most contrarian opinion about gaming?

Code Veronica is one of the best RE games, you're just shit at video games
Dead Space 2's DLC is better than the main game
FF6 is overrated and FF4 surpasses it by far
Siren is just as good of a franchise as Fatal Frame and Silent Hill
The Twin Snakes is better than MGS1

>>716256381 (OP)
Well, I think everyone on this board is stupid and shouldn't be heard. Is that contrarian enough? It's good for people that make threads, though. I spend all my time on the Catalog closing shit, so the NPCs post in every single thread.

>>716256381 (OP)
I like funny little cheapskate guys who swear by the FX 8350

>>716256381 (OP)
Skyward Sword is a very very good game

>>716256381 (OP)
>This guy thinks weight gain on women is hot
Yes.

Dark Souls 2 is a good game

>>716256381 (OP)
Ocarina of Time is not the best game ever made.

If she aint 180 she aint a lady

AI will lead to the democratization of video game production so long as people can run their own models and any sort of AI 'Ban' doesn't ban AI but just means it'll be some faggot curated version instead.

>>716256843
That's your attempt at being contrarian? I think the whole Zelda series is shit, and it's like Dark Souls for kids.

>>716256543
Agreed about CV and Siren, but man is the last one quite the opinion. I think TS's remade ost is actually awesome, but otherwise it might have been the first ever sloppy remake in vidya history.

>>716256381 (OP)
I like big top, even cried a little at the end
also didn't much like the last case

>>716256381 (OP)
For how many animays there are about isekai, it seems like there are next to no actual games about it.
Missed opportunity if you ask me.

most video games are bad and the entire medium has been underrealized potential since fucking forever

>>716256381 (OP)
Serious Sam is the peak of the FPS genre and nothing has surpassed it

>>716257164
Elaborate, how are they bad and what would you do to fix them.

I wanna fuck Anita Sarkeesian

timers are a good game mechanics

Unreal Tournament is better than cs

>>716256381 (OP)
Love remakes and remasters, it has allowed me to visit or revisit some classics that I missed growing up.

/v/ the adult disney type to complain that splash mountain isn't fun because when they were a kid the rabbit had a green scarf instead of a red one

>>716256381 (OP)
WHERE IS THE UPDATE NERDS

>>716256543
Wasn't dead space 2 dlc just fucking armor sets you get?

>>716257576
That is DLC, but Severed is a console only two chapter release starring one of the guys from the Wii game. Only reason I keep my 360 around.
>>716257048
I love the over the top John Woo shit, it certainly has problems but I think all the cuhrayzee stuff people hate is what I enjoy so much about it

>>716257443
>Love remakes and remasters, it has allowed me to visit or revisit some classics that I missed growing up.

That's only contrarian on this website. Rarely you'll see someone straight up admit they hate remakes because they can't run them. Most of the time it's just some sour grapes poor person. Stupid people have a hard time being honest for some reason.

>>716257782
>console only

This is what I dont miss about that era of gaming

>>716257542
Nothing ever happens.

>>716256381 (OP)
AC:Origins is the best game of the entire franchise
I loved Halo 4
Games as a service is a great concept (giving support to games after launch for some time) that got corrupted so fucking fast it doesnt matter at the end of the day (incomplete games where the new "content" are just microtransactions that break the game's coherence, sense, lore and style)

>>716256381 (OP)
>FF7 is overrated as fuck.
>Games like Bioshock Infinite and Mafia 3 aren't bad games, they're just bad games for their respective series. You change their names and they wouldn't get as much shit.
>>716257250
Absolutely based. I need an anal only threesome with her and that nasty bitch Zoe Quinn. I really really need to know what the inside of her asshole feels like.

>>716258775
>AC:Origins is the best game of the entire franchise

Nu-ac fans will call you wrong because it's not n1ggerman and old-ac fans will call you wrong because it's not wop man but I agree there's something special about origins.

>>716256381 (OP)
>This guy thinks weight gain on women is hot
Yes, I do.
>What is your most contrarian opinion about gaming?
Gaming is not an inherently narrative medium, but it is an inherently ludic medium. Therefore having gameplay with no story is perfectly acceptable but story with no gameplay makes no sense. VNfags need not apply, those are more akin to choose your own adventure books than games.
Is that even contrarian? I can't tell at this point.

>>716258386
>implied fatal
awwww yeah, that's the stuff. giwtwm

>>716256381 (OP)
RPGs (of any kind) are a shitty genre and gaming would have been better if no RPG ever existed.

>>716260368
What kind of person hates RPGs? What genre do you like?

>>716256543
>FF6 is overrated and FF4 surpasses it by far
eeh

>>716260576
No answer. I'll just assume it's a Nintendo faggot. It would explain the tiny brain and large cowardice.

>>716256381 (OP)
I think that the fact that "Role playing games" seems to refer to games about build autism and leveling up skills instead playing the role of a custom character is the most infuriating shit ever.

All rockstar games are shit

>>716256543
I was going to say that FF4 is super overrated and basically sucks. 5 and 6 are much better games.

>>716256381 (OP)
Indie games are not the savior of the games industry that everyone pretends they are. Most of them are pretty shit.

I already know this will piss off all of you but I'll just say it.
Fallout 76 blows the rest of the Fallout Franchise out of the water

>>716256381 (OP)
I'm so out of touch I don't know which of my opinions are controversial anymore. People used to get mad when I said I think every single open world game which isn't an mmo is shit but I think people are finally coming around to that one.

>>716262582
This is because all fallout games are bad.

>>716262667
Of course but 76 is easily the peak of the franchise
NV/3 will never be good

I would post some Clara myself but I'm on my work computer

Jetpack COD era was peak, especially AW. supply drops were cringe though

>>716262379
I'll fight you over that shit.

Starcraft really really fucking sucks and Koreans ruined RTS.

this one is fact
theyre fucking chore simulators with dogshit inane plots

Fear 2 is better than Fear 1

>>716256381 (OP)
By conventional wisdom? GTA looks like shit and you couldn't pay me to play a game in the series.

By /v/ standards? It's okay to play as a female character without wanting to fuck her.

>>716256381 (OP)
Both the “We need to make realistic women (aka women who look like roadkill) in gaming” and “We need to make attractive women (aka bimbos in skimpy clothing) in gaming” are both wrong.
Female characters should be attractive more than ugly, but gooners take it way out of proportions, using calling a female character irredeemably ugly over the slightest imperfections. You could have a solid 7.5/10 girl and they’ll act like she’s a -5/10. Additionally crying every time a character is showing only 95% skin instead of 96%.
And it’s the inverse for feminists. If a female character looks like a real woman, down to photoscanning a model, they are then compelled to uglify that woman to make the real life person more realistic (yeah sounds retarded doesn’t it). They’ll also cry if the female character shows any skin besides her face.
I just want something in the middle without both sides having a hissy fit. Female characters that are attractive but aren’t gigasluts.

>>716256543
I agree with your points on FF6 and CV. People who disagree are blinded by nostalgia.

>>716257136
Big Top is one of the few times the game lets you feel smart for figuring out the mystery on your own. The clown and dummy part was pure bullshit I can agree with that but the second trial was pure kino.

Black Mesa is better than the original Half-Life.

>>716256381 (OP)
There's nothing wrong with reading a wiki or copying someone else's run. If doing that significantly decreases the difficulty of your game, then it was a bad game in the first place

>>716271339
Same. I much prefer when they're attractive but wear cute outfits instead of full on slutwear.

It's great that games are costing more money and it should have happened a lot sooner.

If I could buy Persona 5 with graphics like Uncharted 4 for $500, I would do it in a heartbeat.

>>716271339
>>716273346
I don't think that's contrarian at all. That's a pretty fucking reasonable stance that I would like to believe most well-adjusted people hold.
Based even if not.

>>716259083
That's not implied it's outright stated, though.

>>716256381 (OP)
Not because a game is a GOTY it's going to be fun
