Most overrated developer?

I'm starting to get a lot of laughs with this thread. He should of set it up with a poll. I can see why some people don't like naughty dog. Some people felt that TLOU was too realistic or hit too close to home. Some felt that games should feel like a game not like a simulated movie. So I can understand some of the criticism. I'm not gonna bother trying to defend naughty dog against stuff like that. That's really a matter of preference there and not about being an overrated developer.

Basically. Though I'll say this, it's interesting that there's not a single poster that has compared them to anyone else, a dev better than them at what they do, for example, in a rated, measurable way. Thus, the majority of what will come out of this thread are personal opinion(s) of devs and little else. It's not just towards Naughty Dog, though. When people talk about Nintendo's 30 year presence, I'm not sure how they fall into that status, either. They're "overrated" compared to who? In what regard?

Well, one thing that will make me look badly on a dev is if their games are finished products. Is it a cake with no icing on it or do I have to wait 6 months to finally have icing on it. You can compare all devs to eachother in this aspect. Naughty Dog is kinda difficult to compare to another dev though just on their games being bug free for the most part. I don't think Nintendo is overrated. They are pretty good at what they do and in general live up their fans expectations but I hate the genre of games that they focus on.

 

Bethesda more or less fits what an overrated developer is like. They are not good at what they focus on but are highly praised. They just make big game worlds with lots of shit to do that are buggier than Joe's apartment.
