At least Shadow's main flaws were it's repetitive bullshit to get the true ending, otherwise it's a fun game and has a lot of charm into it. Sonic 06 has none of that, it's a black hole that sucks a lot of my good will and time. Because Yuji Naka is a loser with sperg issues.

I don't see how that fits. People had a lot of fun dunking on it for the art while appreciating it as the effort of one dude. It's not recognized as a particularly innovative series in the genre either. More commonly, you'll see shmup players suggest it's one of the easier franchises and very accessible to beginners. Maybe I just don't know enough about the younger/newer fans. It's not like I haven't seen some really obnoxious primary fans in my time however.

MHW/IB was good. Widely praised, sold gangbusters, feels amazing to play. You are never going to convince me that wasn't the right evolution for the series.

Now Rise/Sunbreak? Too easy. Wilds? Even easier and more embarrassing, but Omega was fun. Unless Wilds G gets it right im just gonna assume World was a fluke and MH ended there after achieving perfection.

i realized this after playing morrowind myself, very much overrated even in the RPG aspects by a fanbase full of rose-tinted glasses wearing boomer faggots that are out of touch. quest markers are bad, but giving you no directions at all is worse, which happens a lot and is also stupifying, since they have quests where they give you ample directions and pointers.
>>
>>729741943
Trying to look at it from a Sonic fan view, they seemed desperate for a good "Real" Sonic game and kept calling Frontiers a good first step even though Sonic has been around for decades and keeps trying to reinvent itself. And in a prophetic twist those "good first steps" were used to make Shadowgens overworld more focused and less retarded looking, so kudos Sega, you're improving from sega jank floating pube retardation to color coordinated sega jank.

The primary defense is "well, the feds aren't that annoying, Samus worked with them in Other M, and they were great there!"

They use a similar mentality when defending Prime 3. "That game had you work with the feds, and nobody complained there!" nevermind that prime 3 is considered the worst of the trilogy.

Fair, although even something like fangames do deserve the attention since they have their own can of worms.

>>729735628
More like how Touhoufags are making it as if was some kind of deeper series than what it actually is just because it was made in the 90s or how "cool" it's own world sounds. And if you point out the obvious flaws like the whole youkai origin shit or the writing on some of the characters (especially in UFO/TD), you would get lambasted by redditors using fanfiction and theories, or at worst, calling you a contrarian to justify why said flaws is a good thing.

>>729747762
I guess for Touhou's lore there's that speration inbetween canon and fanon, and usually people don't give a single shit about the canon lore, so they do with whatever memes and animation do with the characters
There's still some interesting stuff, like the official mangas or the hifuu club lore in ZUN's albums, which I don't think people also really give a lot of fucks about
It's not the deepest stuff ever but it's alright, I guess it's always better than the fanon versions of the characters where everyone can be described in one line and everyone's personality is extrapoled from 1 line they said in a game or how they were represented in 1 meme
