So, you prefer games with high RNG then?

Guys, it's super sweet that you're trying to guess, really. Those are some awesome answers, but let's try not to derail the thread any further. I'm only going to tell Rol if his guesses are correct. If he wants to guess, he can guess. He can PM me guesses if he's so desperate to know.

naughty dog games and nintendo games, and the bioshock games

when I say nintendo games, I mean most of them. not all but a significant portion due to how the review sites never nit pick their games

I consider A Link to the Past to be the most overrated game I have ever played...
I would also like to not give props to Super Mario World, Half-Life 2, and Pokémon Snap...

I understand.

Also:
ARMS, Golf Story, Persona 5 (PS4 port).

I'd condemn the entire fighting and hack and slash genres to overrated.

I didn't really see it that way. At least, not on the first playthrough, I saw it as more reactive gameplay where you know how a green koopa acts vs a parakoopa and seeing those enemies in your path you could react to it and make your way through on the first try. Even with moving platforms you always have plenty to time to figure out how to progress. The closest to what you're describing that I can think of were the mine cart levels in Donkey Kong Country where it was technically possible to succeed without knowing what was coming ahead but in reality it often boiled down to trial and error and memorizing patterns.

Spyro. Such basic games and uninteresting worlds/story. Have no clue how people are hype for a remake when the game was already basic when it came out and when you compare it to what we have today...

Diablo 3 is not really well rated from most people but its still too much.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! Why man...just why? *sigh*

GTA IV most definitely. Terribly boring game. What do you actually do in that game? You can do everything but you aren't actually doing anything, or that's how it feels. GTA is a jack of all trades but a master of none. The 98 on meta is laughable. Even when trying to be as objective as possible, I'd still dock at least 10 points from that score. Subjectively I'd probably dock 30 points from that. Haven't played V because IV was dumb but, I doubt I'd feel that's a 97 as well.

The The Last of Us. I don't see that one either. I love Uncharted though, it'a lot more exciting. The AI in The Last of Us is mostly what kills it. It's supposed to be a stealthy game, but the enemies are so dumb you could just make some noise and they'd come running. One by one falling to my baseball bat. Total immersion killer. Ellie is always in the way and she literally got me stuck once. Didn't expect there to be something gamebreaking in a Naughty Dog game. From the games of their's I played (The original Crash games, all Uncharteds and this one), The Last of Us is definitely their weakest effort.

Ahhh gotta love a good rant thread.
