What games do you like/dislike that others tend to dislike/like? Why?

9 hours 9 persons 9 doors. It's a very popular game but I found it incredibly dull and boring.

JRPGs. I never got the hang of them.

Hate:
Pokemon
Competitive multiplayer games (git gud, right? NO)
Catherine (I don't know why people don't hate this shit)
Main Mario games (well, actually hating is not the right word, they just tend to bore me)

Like:
Trauma series
FFXV (seems to be hated here, and I have a love-hate relationship with it, but oh well)
FF5 (best underrated game in the series)
Twilight Princess (I loved this game when it came out, even today I see many people considering it the worst Zelda ever)

(more to come...)

i dislike Novel'ish games, i find it hard to get into them, but my dude ,there are some great JRPG's out there !

i like/love the majority of JRPG's ,some are horrid though.
not all of them are good, i like Wrpg's too, i love the witcher 3.

games i dislike are the overhyped ones and that dont live up to the hype, i do not know what to mention atm.

there are not that many games i dislike, but there are times where i try my best to get into a game and it just does not tick to me, does not push me into going deeper into the game (sadly there are quite alot of such games, again i cannot mention that much..)

but i would like to recommend a game to all ya gamers out there, it is a very underrated game i guess.

it is called kuru kuru kururin (i believe only the first title on gba is in english , the 2nd game on gba is japanese only, i love the series, which is sadly short, there are only 3 kururin games).

the best one to me is the NGC version, it is called Kururin Squash , if you have not yet tried it i would recommend you to do it now.
it is simple and alot of fun, plus the music in it is Heavenly (especially the NGC one, Kururin Squash).

give it a whirl if you have not yet.

happy gaming !

I consider myself somewhat of a fan of visual novels, and I found 999 to be pretty boring.

Twilight Princess (I loved this game when it came out, even today I see many people considering it the worst Zelda ever)

Weird, my experience has been the exact opposite. I consider TP to be one of the worst Zelda titles, but have actually only met one or two people who agree with me. To be honest, excluding the Wii version, I've seen virtually nothing but praise for TP.

RTS/MMO/FFTactics/Fire Emblem games bore me to death.

The Wii version is actually my favorite, it's the one I bought at Wii's Launch. Sucks that the world was mirrored, because it's the one I've gotten used to, so I find the GameCube and TP HD versions to be "backwards", LOL.

I understand that. I honestly don't really mind the Wii controls/changes that much at all. At any rate, I dislike both versions equally :^)

RTS/MMO/FFTactics/Fire Emblem games bore me to death.

With RTS, some I find boring, others are some of my favourite games of all time, but tactics/turn-based strategy games bore me to death as well.

Turn-based RPG/JRPG really gets me going though, I love being able to take my time to plan out several moves in my head. I dislike battle systems like FF8 used, where if you took your time, the enemy would just keep hitting you. It's really unfair. Golden Sun made me appreciate turn-based RPGs, but it had a flaw in the battle system that drove me up the wall. Lets say you had two enemies on screen, and two in your party. Both of your party members were focused on the same enemy. Well your first party member would strike and kill, so instead of the game being smart enough and moving your attack to the other enemy, it would just strike at the empty space, wasting your turn. Pissed me off to no end. That's my only gripe with the Golden Sun series. Highly recommended games, all 3 of them.

Same here with JRPGs. I got into them with Secret of Evermore and Illusion of Time/Gaia.

I've never really played Golden Sun; I only recently tried it out and sadly couldn't get into it. Maybe I'll give it another shot.

Actually on-topic thing I dislike that others tend to like: The Gameboy Advance. The only game I would consider truly excellent on it would be Metroid Fusion (and Mother 3).

I cant fucking stand Overwatch

Neither. I'm just generally not a fan of shoot games (or online multiplayer).

Oh... I forgot that Twilight Princess is often considered one of the worst TLoZ, but I love it (and Spirit Tracks too btw)

 

[The Catboy]

I actually really don't like the Uncharted games. Mostly because the story and combat felt like they were made by two different teams that weren't allowed to talk to each other.
