What's the most overrated game of all time?

Ocarina of Time, RE4 is actually still good

Elden Mid

Tetris

>>729116078
i'm almost forty and i played ocarina like ten years ago and it was just alright. RE4 is always good/never played the demake
>>
Skyrim
it's a bad video game, through and through
>>
>>729115991
nah the aiming system is too good. it genuinely still holds up as one of the better console stick based systems we've gotten, and this was done in 2005 by a japanese developer.

This but every Elder Scrolls.

>>729116652
It is unquestionably a masterpiece. It is a literal landmark, industry defining game.
>>
>>729116652
Out of all games to reach "classic status", if you're picking RE4 over the likes of stuff like Skyrim, TLOU, RDR2, etc., you're just hilariously wrong, and dumb.
>>
Breath of the Wild. I just don't get it.
>>
So far everyone, even the OP, except one has given a retarded answer. Good job, you guys don't play video games, and even if you did you don't know what you're playing or what makes them good. It's really pathetic you can spend so much time on a hobby and still be so inept.
>>
>>729117124
RE4 is better than all of those games.
>>
>>729117239
Yeah you stupid cunt, I'm saying if you're picking RE4 as "most overrated" over those games, you're dumb. Read the post before replying with your drivel you mouthbreathing retard.

Not being able to move while aiming is what makes it tense.

it's not about games that's just how it works, you get to move while you're aiming, it's one of the laws that govern all life

Bioshock will go down as one of the greatest games of all time, as it should. You're opinion is just wrong.
>>
>>729115991
you posted it
basic mechanics are great, movement feels nice, combat and shooting can feel intense and fun

but the actual design of the game and levels past 1 hour mark is absolute dogshit bar a few good rooms like the water hall or the regenerador encounters. Tonally it is also very inappropriate for resident evil and does not respect the series at all, it basically retconned leon's whole character
>>
>>729123343
Why do you think the design is bad? Honestly RE4 to me is one of the few games with perfect design the entire way through. Only exception being the four-five random QTE sections that last 5 seconds each.

I never feel pressured for resources/ammo/health when I am playing RE4. There is never an enemy encounter in the game that captures the intensity of the overwhelming mobs you face in the first chapter. There is rarely any incentive or room for exploration besides shooting diamonds out of the ceiling. It is structured in chapters like a linear action game but then there are some parts where the game asks you to backtrack however the environments are not laid out interestingly enough for it to be fun to backtrack like in a standard RE game. If it was more like RE5 where you just constantly move forward nonstop through a variety of new environments it would be good but re4 just feels like it has an identity crisis at certain points where it feels the need to keep up the pretense of being survival horror despite it clearly not being one. And like you mentioned the gimmick sections like the QTEs or the bizarre turret section near the end of the game drag it down a lot. Overall it just gets boring IMO. I will say I did like managing Ashley though.
>>
>>729123820
The way you describe it, it sound like you are extremely familiar with the game.

When i played og re4 for the first time last month, i did feel pressure with every enemy encounter. When you fully know the game, its solved. Its not going to be impressive to you anymore, but for me the game was fucking fantastic

I really enjoyed pretty much every level and enemy encounter in the game, I think they did a great job of providing fun and varied encounters that tested player skill (especially your mastery with the controls). It's not a hard game though, once you learn it, but I think it's still very fun action-wise. The water room is still pretty tricky on Professional even if you're a good player. I like to take as many different weapon types as I can (Handgun, TMP, Magnum, Sniper, Shotgun) so that my inventory isn't overflowing with ammo space. I honestly don't think there's much backtracking? There's a tiny bit in the village and a tiny bit in the castle but it's just passing through intertwining sections. Honestly the gameplay, variety of the levels and enemy encounters, and challenge of protecting Ashley makes the game extremely fun for me. I don't care at all that it's not "survival horror" because I don't care about genre conventions. And btw, my top two RE games are original RE1 and RE4. I understand the aversion when a series has an identity shift, but I think it was handled extremely well and headed by the original RE1 director as well. RE9 is interesting in that it is trying to combine the puzzle box RE classic design with the action oriented RE4 design (it honestly might end up a clusterfuck). Honestly once you've done a playthrough of the classic games, the puzzle element is now solved and it becomes an action-oriented survival game just like RE4. RE3 was the first in the series to have actually substantial puzzles. RE5 is also great in co-op but the turret control sections are retarded (the PC version lets you completely turn off QTEs which is based). Loved playing it with a friend, I'm a Sheva enjoyer through and through.

Sheva is honestly one of Capcom's best characters. Really sad they ahven't brought her back

youre old enough not to be a mindless cunt so stop being one, If youre as old as you say then it being "alright" as well is the only sensible reaction to it. I didnt even want it when it was announced but it turned out to be something different to the original but still an enjoyable time

I played BG3 on the 1.0 release and it was truly shocking how quickly each character, male and female, wants to jump on your dick. One of the horniest set of characters anywhere. Anyway I didn't finish the game because the story was nonexistent and the characters were obnoxious. Also the dice-rolling and turn based combat were just so slow and tedious.

>>
>>729125220
Not him but it's just worthless is all. RE4 didn't need to be made again. They didn't even have the false excuse of it being stuck on old hardware.

The game was already as best as it could ever be, so the remake is also just... good, but not better. Why does it even exist? For retards who can't take 5 seconds to learn how to use tank controls?

Literally the only reason they are making remakes is for money. They just want to milk an already successful game. That's why they don't bother to remake games that were considered bad or unpopular, like DMC2 or RE6.

good personality, friendly, loyal, supportive, reliable, fun voice. She acted more like a partner to Chris than Jill ever did but to be fair I think Jill is legitimately on the autism spectrum so she would understandably struggle with that kind of relationship.
>>
>>729125617
>Why does it even exist?
To make a game based on re4 but with more overt horror theming, more survival horror oriented mechanics, more consistent characterization for Leon between re2 and re4, better characterization for Ashley and Luis, there's a bunch of reasons and good points to re4 remake's existence.

>>729125863
Those things you listed are just convenient excuses for milking an already successful game for more money.

Also just because those are things they set out to change, it doesn't mean they were successful. The change in characterization made the cast more dull and forgettable, and there's nothing about the game that is more or less "horror" than the original.

Also, the expansion of even more backtracking, exploration, and side quests made the game much more of a slog than the original. I don't even think it's a bad game, it just wasn't worth making for any reason other than money.

-Crafting = player has to make more decisions on how to use their limited resources, more room for error if you spend resources unwisely
-Knife durability = pressure on the player to manage resources responsibly... stark contrast to OG knife which was very overpowered
-Most of the play areas are more open and less linear, there is greater reward for exploring than original RE4
-More decisions for the player to make when routing the game, especially with regards to weighing the pros and cons of the merchant side quests because although they offer useful rewards, they force you to face strong enemies
-The whole aesthetic is a lot spookier. In my opinion some areas aren't as striking as the original such as the village, but all the areas look much scarier. Compare OG first villager encounter to remake first villager encounter, or OG regenerador labs vs the darkness of the remake.

The only "survival horroresque" mechanic from og RE4 missing is the inability to move while shooting and the pressure of having to time your shots and reloads responsibly to avoid being . This is obviously a "modern gamer" concession sadly. But the remake does incentivize that old style of play by improving your accuracy and crit chance if you stand still and shoot.

>convenient excuses for milking
Yes the motivation is money, that goes for all video games lol, games only get greenlit because the publisher expects they will turn a good profit. Doesn't detract from the fact that the design team themselves can be creatively motivated and inspired to present a new perspective on an existing work. If you're going to complain about the artistic integrity of remakes then re4 remake is not the game to complain about, it is a different experience from the original and represents the dev team's unique vision for the re4 premise. Much different than the likes of Dead Space remake for example
>>
Objectively? Probably something like The Walking Dead. Even if it’s worthy of praise, it’s borderline negligence to call something like that “game of the year”.
But my subjective opinion is Nier Automata.

its an action game. You are suppose to upgrade the weapons and have fun with them. I hated the remake because it was like you described, it was more of a survival game where you "managed resources". I played on hardest difficulty and didnt have enough ammo to really "play" around with the weapons, i just used the pistol on everything and the good guns on bosses. it was actually boring as fuck, not enough enemies and not enough ammo, a fight sequence would come up where i got rushed and it lasted like 15 seconds and i was like "is this it?" I dont enjoy the speed runner autism of "saving ammo" to skip bosses and running by regular enemies which is what the remake seemed centred around.

i played OoT for the first time this year and its a very good game but damn is it dated, i wouldnt say i want a remake but a remaster with just slightly improved controls would be my preference. i also played RE4og this year and that game still holds up super well, nothing about it felt dated other than graphics i guess, but who gaf about that
