There are three games I can't decide between as the worst of all time.

One of them will not bother anyone: Ace Combat Advance.
The second will ruffle a couple of feathers: Altered Beast
The last will piss off everyone: Devil May Cry 1

I'd love to hear your reasoning behind this.
It's a combination of a variety of things but some parts are :

their regularity of extremely large sales hosted as big events has devalued the price of games overall. basically no one (including me, oops) is actually willing to pay a reasonable amount for games and that has snowball effects into the quality of gamedev as a job and on companies moving towards other ways to trick you out of your money like microtransaction spam. both of which obviously make the resulting games worse

their near-monopoly as a PC gaming market gives them significant control over what games exist or not, basically. Many people essentially treat games not on steam as if they don't exist at all, but steam's process/guidelines for what games they allow can be arcane and inconsistent.

They're not even that great for discoverability either because steam is just innundated with games, many of which are clearly low quality cashgrabs (this is what their vetting process should be filtering out!) Their discoverability tools, despite improvement over the years, are still not great. They take a 30% cut and provide very little in return other than just the part where the majority of people immediately throw any game not on steam straight into the dumpster

-Bioshock never really did anything for me.
-Chrono Trigger didn't either^.
-GTA 4 is probably the best one at least in terms of story, setting, characters, and overall vibe.
-Saints Row games are fun, but nowhere near GTA's level. 2 was the best, but still felt janky quite a bit. Never got the praise for the story or writing.
-A lot of the GTA clones were fun.
-Mario World > 3
-THUG 2 is the best Tony Hawk game. The Jackass/Viva La Bam-esque story is one thing (although I enjoyed it), but the gameplay was at its absolute peak and the levels were really fun.
-Link To The Past as great the first time around, but I can never get that far in replays.

There's only 1 exception in my mind and that's Binding of Isaac vs the original Legend of Zelda. Ignoring the obvious different years of the two, Isaac does that style of Zelda better than Zelda does.

Makes me wish Edwand Mcmillen would just make a Zelda style game.

  • Most remakes would be better off just being a re-release/collection. It'd take much less effort and please more people if you just put out a good :sus:, I see you, HD Collection collection of the Team Silent Silent Hill games than if you remade Silent Hill 2
  • Guilty Gear Strive's music is very, very spotty. There are a couple bangers like Millia's theme but for the most part, XX and Xrd clear
  • Star Fox 64 isn't even the best Nintendo rail shooter on the N64
  • I'm not bold enough to say it's "better" per se but I liked Deus Ex: Invisible War more than the original
  • BOTW is the best 3D Zelda, followed by TP
  • Maybe this tips my hand, so to speak, but I found Diablo 2 insufferable. Didn't play 1 or 4 but I did play 3 and liked that more. Idk, maybe I'm a sucker for "consolized" PC series.
  • It's a crying shame that the most popular character from Samurai Shodown is NAKORURU. So many cool characters and one of the lamest is the "face".

I hope people don't think I'm a bigot for this one, but I felt like a lot the discourse around Hogwarts Legacy was unfair.

I'm not trying to discount how trans people felt because of Rowling's terrible words and attitude towards them, but the people who made the game aren't a part of that, and iirc, there was even a trans character.

I know she gets money since it's her brand, but unless if you are conscious of where the money goes for each of your purchases, it feels hypocritical to criticize others for buying it.

shame on the people who only talked about/praised the game as a way of trolling, though.

I think most reasonable people had this mindset, and were able to differentiate Hogwarts Legacy and the development team behind it from their creator.

yea, maybe I just spent too much time on the boards because a lot of players were excited to have a "full" Harry Potter experience, but it sometimes got really messy.

I understand why some people felt strongly, but it just became one of those things where it was better not to talk about it.

Absolutely 100%. To add on, Strive as a whole is trash and is the death of the GG franchise for me. Terrible story mode, and the dumbing down mechanically makes it not even feel like it's the same series anymore, to say nothing of the character moveset changes (Testament literally not having a single returning special or super comes to mind).

Characters that are dependent on critical hits (a.k.a. rogue class) are inferior to tanks/fixed DPS. Better to have the certainty of knowing how much damage youre going to cause rather than just hoping for the best.

Mass Effect 3: The extended ending was fine and satisfying enough. I feel like people who complain about lack of seeing the result of your choices throughout the trilogy have been skipping/sleeping through the story during the game itself.
Also, Paragon Control is utilitaristically the best possible ending, both at that moment and long-term.
Also also, the indoctrination fan theory is silly and even more ridiculous than the original ending.

Silent Hill: The Room is the best of the series.

Metal Gear Solid 4: The first two acts were easily the best part of the game and pretty much the sole reason why I replayed it at all. Although I was initially turned off by the active warzone atmosphere, I eventually grew to love how expansive the possibilities were of being able to move your way through and influence the battle, or just ignore all that and sneak your way past the battlefield entirely.
The final boss fight however was barely mediocre at best and mostly just memberberries. It wasnt even half as exciting as any of the final boss fights of MGS 1, 2 or 3.

Man do I feel this. The fuck is the point of butchering a whole character's moveset when you can just make another damn character? Well, obviously in Testament's case, the old moveset wasn't simplistic enough to fit in Strive.

besides Raiden in MGS2, pretty much every character Kojima has written has been two-dimensional.

not to say that they were necessarily bad, but that they didn't really have much depth; and no, just because a character has suffered, it doesn't mean that they're somehow deeper for it.

also, to go off that, Death Stranding is one of the worst written games out there, and its gameplay loop is either boring (traversal) or ass (combat, stealth, etc.) depending on what you're doing.

Final fantasy 7 remake and rebirth's action ATB battle system is the best gameplay system the final fantasy series has ever came up with by far.

.....and yes, I've been playing the games since the first 1 on the NES and 4, mystic quest and 6 on the SNES.

(Only reason I pointed out that last part is because some "older" final fantasy fans absolutely refuse to accept that a fan of the series who are in their late 30s/early 40s and thus been around since the "golden age" (basically when the games was the most nostalgic for this group) can like and/or prefer some of the newer gameplay systems square-enix been coming up with, and that if someone does they must be some young gamer that just started playing the most recent games).

Actually I will go as far as to say the final fantasy series itself can be pretty overrated and that too many older fans just don't know when to let something go if they feel the games are not being made for them no more. Like every final fantasy related topic made where the TC is all like "yeah this new thing I don't like. Something something sales" is filled with 100s of posts of people complaining/arguing about the same thing and for whatever reason it just does not get old.
