Unpopular Opinions about Video Games

Vault Boy said:
Her complaining about Princess Peach has no merit when she was part of the party in two RPGs and had her own spinoff where she saved Mario & Luigi from Bowser. If only she bothered to take some time researching her topics instead of making kneejerk videos, at least she's lost a ton of relevance over the years.

She doesn't even have to do research, just look at what's presented to her. Case in point, in her Hitman vid she was whinging about some bullshit about how players were rewarded for wantonly murdering everybody, when in the footage being shown you could see points be deducted for doing just that exactly when she was saying it.

I agree that Banjo & Kazooie: Nuts and Bolts was a subpar sequel to the previous two entries, even if I hate the collect-a-thon genre from B&K.

The LOG character meant to be self depreciation towards the trend of gaming during that generation AND Rare's games themselves, I actually agree with it. Particularly with the FPS genre popularizing during the seventh generation AND collecting random things for the sake of completion.

I think Rare was too hard on themselves then. Their Kinect titles were actually great tech demos.
 
Psychonauts starts amazing and quickly goes downhill FAST when the Asylum comes.

The plot suddenly stops and Im forced to do these obnoxious levels for the sake of getting clothes to trick an idiot guard. It just feels like excuses for padding out the play time because the devs realised that the plot progressed too fast and now they gotta stop and let the gameplay time catch up

I legit feel like quitting during the Edgar level, that shit is so fucking annoying.

To be honest, I never liked most of the designs of the MK girls because the majority of them look like bimbos that took too many steroids and got illegal bolt-on breast augmentation surgeries on some third world country. One of the most glaring issues is how small both their waists and hips are so most end up with a V shape figure with small asses and long abdomens with shitty leg to body ratios.

If they wanted some atractive female designs with muscles then they should've taken some lessons out of George Kamitani and how he drew the Amazon for Dragon's Crown or the main artists for the Street Fighter games from 0/alpha onwards, Chun-Li has always looked good in most of the games she's been with the exception of MvCI (but everyone looked bad in that one).

So basically give women giant ass thunder thighs?

Jokes aside, I love Chun-li but the Amazon design you have shown always kind of disgusted me. There was always so unproportional about her body (and no, Im not saying its "unrealistic" like those woke harpies). Maybe its her outfit or the fact that all her muscles seem to be in her legs but, eh? I dont mind how females look in MK 9, maybe its because they always looked good for me to buy them as inter dimensional demi-god princesses from another dimension.

There are beefy gorgeous females IRL and in fiction out there so I dont know, maybe it needs to be designed by a guy that really digs his tomboys instead of just being told to draw "strong sexy female" and thats it.

There were good ideas in Nuts and Bolts but it lacked focus.

Im still surprised Microsoft still hasnt tried again, especially after the sheer cheering of BnK being in Smash. People clearly want these characters back for real and are willing to forgive and forget Nuts and Bolts.

Astrobot has had more platformers put out than Banjo kazooie and Astrobot was first debuted in 2013.

fuck they even now stuck him into their actual movie opening animation.

People in general are clamoring for more 3d platformers just from anywhere.

You're asking for a world of pain if you leave a trail of bodies behind you.:blart:

I'm left with the feeling of two neighbors discussing politics across their garden fence. Lots of opinions and few facts offered.

She seems really sex-negative, too: complaining that GTA has prostitutes. Last time I heard of her, she was complaining that The Mandalorian has breastplates for women. Ironically, she is terrible at taking criticism and blocks people/disables her comment section.

It's sad to see what happened to "breadtube". It was new and novel for “lefties” to have an audience bigger than 12 subscribers. Now? A transparent attempt at networking and clout-chasing.

I prefer the MK9 female costumes over most of what Mortal Kombat females wear nowadays.

Its so bizarre people talk about skimpy outfits and male gaze when, 1) You have a lot of shirtless males in the game AND series. 2) This series isnt meant to be realistic at all, its all meant to be hyper stylized action and gore.

Who gives a shit to what a sexy female is wearing when she is kicking my sorry ass with a big ass combo? And then looking pretty once she wins?

I dont know, MK females were always great and engaging characters to me and their costumes were always on the skimpy side (Kitana and Millena's first outfit was literally a leotard that shows their legs and arms)

It just feels so stupid when people give a shit about this, in series about hyper violence and senseless gore. Maybe it was weird for Sonya to wear something like that but most of the other females were more than fine to me, they are from another dimension after all.

Except for Sonya Blade's cleavage revealing midriff baring flak jacket. It looks ridiculous and constrictive. (Yeah, Shape Khan's getup is similar but at least you can argue he can move in it).

I think "every woman needs to be hot" and "no woman is allowed to be hot ever" are both equally stupid takes. If your game has both big titty hotties in their underwear AND rough bitches that look like they eat nails for breakfast I will buy it

Most media are very creative when it comes to male charcter design, you got hot young guys and ugly old guys and everything in between, but female designs tend to stick to a few archetypes.
Characters like Kreia (KOTOR 2) are very rare.

My thoughts exactly, I honestly don’t care if a game has a bad or crappy fanbase, it’s not a turn off for me , I can still enjoy the game just as much and not give a shit about the bigger tards that ruin the community. People put way too much value on a piece of media’s fanbase almost as a way to discourage you from enjoying something, it’s so stupid.

I saw a collection of life masks in a film museum in Hollywood. I had no trouble recognizing the men -- Boris Karloff didn't look anything like Peter Lorre -- but the women were tough to tell apart.

I've never understood why some women get so upset by breastplates (be it in games or other media). If you're a woman, those boobs have got to go somewhere and it's going to get real uncomfortable real quick if they're not properly accommodated.

She's also adorable when she swaps clothes with Luigi (and starts chucking Bob-ombs)

I just looked up this Mandalorian controversy expecting to see some ridiculous metal push-up bra boob armor, but it's actually barely noticeable by Hollywood costume design standards.

If we're going to go hunting that hard for unrealistic aspects of Star Wars, there's about a million things far more impractical than those breast plates. What a reach.

This is what anime does to your brain.
