Speaking of badly written fan fictions. I think Tales of Symphonia 2 wins my hatred.

I'm usually pretty forgiving of characters who start off whiny as I feel their character growth is usually the most satisfying for me, but DAMN the main character in Tales of Symphonia whined so much that is pissed me off to the point of putting the game down.

I don't remember the main character in that game whining. Maybe you're thinking of Tales of the Abyss who had a notoriously whiny main character. So bad it killed the game for most.

Fallout 3
When I first played it, it was a buggy, broken and unplayable mess that would crash every 10 minutes and had multiple broken quests (and it got a free pass on that due to it being a Bethesda game). After slogging my way through that poor excuse of an RPG I realised how utterly inferior it was to New Vegas and how little Bethesda actually cared about their game's story or it making any kind of sense. Of course, any mention of this in any Fallout forum would cause the bethesdrones to attack due to someone having a different opinion to them...

Not to sound like a dinosaur but back when I was in school, majority of phones in the hands of the population were land lines. So isn't really an issue for me. :v

All things considered that was review bombing at the time of release. People can edit their reviews after Valve fixed their issue with it or another possibility that people who would never give a review in the first place such as me, who like this update and hate review bombing, countered it out by giving this game a positive review. Maybe it only counts reviews from a week ago so majority of the negative reviews are being ignored in the whole.


The tf2 steam forums if you'll notice was nothing but pure hate after update came out, now most people are okay with the update. Pretty much all the angry people lost steam in their endevours, as most internet mobs tend too after a week.

Tf2, Phantom Brave PC, and Starbound now that it's out of early access.

G-mod seems like a good idea. Considering this is a tf2 group most players should love the feel of the game. There's so many plugins and ways to play the game.

I've got mixed feelings about them, they were the ones who forced Bioware to take Mass Effect down a more fps path, while they were known for creating beautiful rpgs.


I don't despise them or anything, but it most certainly does feel like they're trying to get rich quick and they don't care who they have to use and discard to do so.

Ironically the popularity of those games is the becoming death of them, Fallout 4 isn't a very good RPG and is incredibly watered down.

Thing is, Fallout 4's biggest problem is that it isn't so well developed, especially compared to New Vegas, which a friend of mine is addicted to the game, seriously, 100 hours of playtime in a month, he's just loving the game.

If Fallout 4 were a better game, then it would spark more interest for RPGFPS games.

I think Fallout 4 was well developed, just they were trying to cash in more on the FPS market since that tends to be more successful. Much like how Mass Effect 2 and 3 ended up going more shooter than rpg because EA ordered them too.



Anyways New Vegas is more well received I'd say because the pc release of Fallout 3 sucked in so many regards, especially for mods. Fallout 3 feels like overall the better rpg fps game, the setting feels more immersive and the rpg elements more rpg-ish, but because major faults such as not working properly on some operating systems it sorta failed here compared to how well received it was on consoles.

Action Adventure would be my answer if it weren't already the most properly genre. Pretty sure next to FPS games, action adventure games are the best selling.

Oh so basically every tf2 youtuber. Bonus points for them showcasing their weapon is op clips with their own personal pocket medic against players who either don't know that you can turn around or don't care too.


I feel like tf2 youtubers shouldn't be allowed to make videos on game or weapon balance, unless it's in regards to competitive. I could respect any footage regarding something being unbalancing if it were recorded in a competitive game, rather than against unorganized players who joined yesterday while playing with your friends.
