What is the most overrated game of all time?
>>
>>729635925
Undertale. I hate that piece of shit.

Other than that every platformer ever made.
>>
>>729635925
Half Life.

Nier Automata

planescape: torment

Halo

Your favorite game
>>
Undertale

It's a tough question. Mostly because certain games were good for their time. If you put games into their proper context, Halo: CE is really fucking bad compared to the praise it got.
Angry Birds is another. It was nothing new at the time it came out. It's a complete mystery how it did what it did.

>fun mobile game for the toilet
Simple.
>>
Any "official" version of Tetris before Tetris DS.
>>
>>729636210
I think you might've missed the point. If any game was just simply popular, it was Angry Birds. It wasn't novel in any way, shape or form.
>>
And it's not even close.
>>
>>729636165
Kill yourself already Quakenigger
>>
>>729636290
Quake is also extremely overrated. I guess it was kind of cool for its time.
>>
>>729635925
90s - 007 Goldeneye
00s - Metal Gear Solid 4
10s - Last of Us 1
20s - Baldur's Gay 3

Pick one
>>
>>729635925
Skyrim
>>
>>729635925
TLOU
>>
>>729636276
Name another pick up and play game available on all phones, from the same time period.
>>
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
>>
>>729636502
This. Every other answer is wrong.
>>
>>729636561
I don't, because that's the fate that would've befallen angry birds without the massive amount of luck. You can choose to be delusional about this one. You're still delusional. On top of being delusional, your logic doesn't even work.

>console exclusive
then fill in with whatever is said to be the best game ever

>>729636712
Sorry, Skyrim is at least a game. Its The Last of Us.

And que your limp dicked attempt at a nu-uh and buzzwords. Kys troon.

super mario

just another platformer years late to the party
>>
>>729636845
I'll make it clearer though. Your logic sucks and it doesn't work to prove anything either way. You can't see that because you're a brainlet.
You asking for that example is a concession that you're not operating under any logic. Fuck off, I'm not playing a game of brainlets.

So explain why you remember flappy bird? There's plenty of people who remember that this game did nothing new.
Smell the fucking coffee. Some people just got lucky by rehashing old ideas at the right time.

Came here to post this
>>
>>729636845
What about the 50 games the studio previously put out?
They just kept trying to throw shit at the wall until something hit.
By the way, they made many games like Angry Birds before that. Only with different art styles.
>>
came in to say Undertale because while it is still good its monstorously and obnoxiously cancerous. But
>>729636553
>>729636772
are correct. More specifically TLOU2 because at least 1 while massively overrated is at the very least alright. 2 is just pure dogshit.
>>
>>729636502
it's above average, but nowhere near 9 or 10
it has many flaws, but it's a good mod platform and I can squeeze some fun out of it
>>
Chrono Trigger
Half-Life 2
Expedition 33
Probably any of countless Sony first-party games that inexplicably get extremely positive reviews despite being mid
>>
>>729636553
This but 2.
>>
>>729636561
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crush_the_Castle this was available on many of the same platforms and Angry Birds explicitly drew inspiration from it. Same year, funnily enough, just a few months earlier.
Thinking Angry Birds is an original idea is genuinely a dumb take. Take that to heart. Thinking that matters in the first place is also a dumb take, but that's a different and more complicated story.

>>729635925
Disco Elysium
>>
>>729635925
Dark souls, the outer wilds and every Nintendo game ever made.
>>
Stalker 2. Metroid Prime 4 as runner up. Over 5/10 is proof the reviewer's politics got in the way of sane analysis.

This boring, janky piece of shit. Gunplay horrible, rover exploration horrible, awkward character models. Couldn't stomach playing this more than halfway through. Baffling how it's a 9.5/10. 2007 must have been desperate for good games.
>>
>>729638634
KOTOR, ME, etc have all gone rancid.
I guess the truth is that a part of the appeal was the """""""cinematic""""""" nature of these games. Now that we have actually cinematic games, they really fucking suck.

Final Fantasy Tactics. The dialogue is so tedious, the story is dull, and the gameplay is boring as fuck. I will admit that the pixel art is amazing though.
>>
>>729635925
Chrono Trigger.
It's not the best JRPG.
It's not even the best SNES JRPG.
>>
one of the bing bing wahoo games. they're all the same, just jumping on things.
>>
>>729636502
how is it overrated?
nobody rates it as the best game ever, nobody back then rated it as the best game ever
>>
>>729638730
Not even in the top 50 of overrated games.
Most people dont even know it exists.
>>
>>729635925
Skyrim, and it isn't close
>>
>>729638795
That's pure bubble talk. I didn't particularly think it was great, but even to my surprise it formed a community of people who liked it and thought it was amazing.
>>
>>729638837
But it is rated very highly. You might even say overly so
>>
>>729638886
sure communities formed who thought the game was amazing but nobody ever said it was flawless, and that's what the truly overrated games have
>>
>>729638953
I think it's still a good example of a game that's up there in the overrated category. I would never have imagined how much people loved it based on just playing it.
>>
>>729636081
100% this.
>>
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3, easily
>>
>>729635925
Mortal Kombat. Any of them. They're all mediocre fighting games carried single handedly by blood and gore.
>>
>>729635925
Breath of the wild
I was tempted to say cyberpunk but only because I saw a thread about it just moments before I saw this one, also I haven't actually played cyberpunk, of overhyped games I have actually played it's easily BOTW
>>
Chess. It's pure midwit bait to venerate the game.
>>
Basically any highly-regarded JRPG because the genre sucks
>>
>>729640329
This. It is absolutely hilarious that this genre was chosen for the "indie" industry plant this year.
I guess, the (((guys))) behind game awards don't even hide that they are just promoting shit anymore.
>>
>>729635925
>The Last of Us
>League of Legends
>DOTA 2
>Overwatch (anything Blizzard really)
>Call of Duty
>Fortnite

Really anything that is ultra normie core popular.
>>
>>729635925
halo, it was a piece of shit the day it released
