    Poll: RPG Cliches you want to destroy

    "Oh wait! You've been fighting for the wrong side for 95% of the game!" "Oh wait! The villain is actually your dad!" "Oh no! You're the chosen one!" Though that one's not a sanity killer, just annoying. "That thing you JUST sold me? No.... no I already lost it."

    Why is O.O.T. so praised?

    It was the prime example, along with Mario 64, of a 2D-to-3D translation done right. It took everything that made the old games good, and made it 'better'. The fact that it was friggin awesome might've had something to do w/ it.

    The Dark Knight - Not All That

    Alright, for the sake of being kind, allow me to critique. It's not a crime to present the opposite point of view, I applaud you for trying to do so. Having said that, a lot of your points needed to be expanded upon to justify them. When going against general opinion, justify your points to...

    BlackAdvent plays Sonic Heroes because he's waiting for classes to start.

    *shrugs* I didn't have too many problems with the camera or the homing attack, but the levels did feel a little cheap with the number of insta-deaths they had. But if that's true for most people, then this game would be the origin point of most of the problems that plague 3-D Sonic games today.

    BlackAdvent plays Sonic Heroes because he's waiting for classes to start.

    In a recent Escapist article by Jordan Deam, certain game designers were metaphorically compared to rock stars, and if it pleases the reading public, I?d like to borrow that metaphor with my own twist.
