Most impossible fan base to please?

[Shirokurou]

Final Fantasy. No doubt about it...
"How about more/less fanservice"
"Sequels to individual ffs yes/no please"
"Too complex/too simple."

And on and on.

 

[gigastar]

The fanbase around Team Fortress 2, no matter what, someone will ***** about a new item, map or game mode release.

Yes, that does include the charity hats.

 

[Okysho]

the sonic fanbase, they complain about everything that happens in the games,

This right here I haven't heard anything good about a sonic game since Adventure 2, even then a ton of people still complain about that.

Also, Smash Brothers fans. They're the most ridiculous people you'll ever encounter.
example from back in the days I used to be on the smash forums:

"OMFG TAKEMARU FROM -really old game I cna't remmeber title- SHOULD TOTALLY BE IN SMASH BROTHERS"

"OMFG CLOUD FROM FF7 SHOULD TOTALLY BE IN SMASH BROTHERS!!" As much as I am a Cloud fanboy, I can't justify this occuring.

"OMFG PITT IS SOOOO CHEAAPPPP!!!! WHY DIDNT THEY BALANCE THIS GAME?!"

"OMFG GANONDORF IS A CAPTAIN FALCON CLONE! WHY DIDN'T THEY MAKE HIM ORIGINAL?!"

the list goes on my friends...

American voters

True that my brother, except we are hard to please after they have come into office. For the most part, campaigns please the voters well enough.

 

[Buizel91]

Pokemon...many people are not happy with the current gen, i personally love it.

COD is another one...but to be fair it is the Devs fault... (looks over at Activision with an evil look)

 

[BodomBeachChild]

Mass Effect fans. While Bioware has been getting really dickish in how they talk to people on their forums Mass Effect fans won't stop at anything to *****. "Why did they do that? Why is this like that. Where is my old squad. Cameos suck. Fuck cause I wouldn't have done that."

They are never happy.

As to American voter comment... people where estatic that Obama made it to President in '08. Now that he hasn't delivered at all since then, not so much. Bush had the same thing happen.

 

[Akihiko]

Most fanbases are whiny and impossible to please. The most recent offenders? Bioware fans, Sonic fans and Final Fantasy fans.

 

[DeathsHands]

Pretty much the entirety of the vocal gamer community is incredibly bitchy and needy.

Although if I had to pick, the BioWare fans complain all the time.

 

[veloper]

Fans of a company or a person are always the easiest to please.
They will buy an publicly defend any crap produced by their object.

I'd say fans of certain genres, but those aren't really 'fans' as such, more like enthousiasts.

 

[Veloxe]

The MMO Market.

"Too grindy."
"I don't feel like I'm working towards anything."
"You only get more gear so you can raid."
"It's too repetitive."
"Too many random encounters."

Ect.

You forgot my personal favourite:

"It's too hard!!" (This one always makes me laugh)

OT: It's been said a couple times but basically the core fanbase of anything is impossible to please. If you made the exact same game they would ***** that you improved it. If you make improvements they'll ***** that you changed it.

 

[eels05]

Am I the only one finding it hard to keep up with abreviated game names.
I know it takes an extra 8 seconds to type out the full name of a game and all.

 

[omegawyrm]

The entire gamer community is pretty damn entitled.

There are very few games that aren't at least a little bit fun, but you wouldn't know that from listening to a gaming forum, every game is "the worst game ever" or "ruined X forever".

 

[blue spartan 11]

The Halo fanbase. Or at least those on Bungie.net. Steer clear from the Halo Reach forum. Most of it is mostly kids going "Waaaaaah! It's different from Halo 3! They ruined Halo!". And before that it was "Waaaaaah! It's different from Halo 2! They ruined Halo!". And before that... you get the idea. The few threads actually trying to do something gets flooded with trolls, making them unreadable.

Some thing just never change...

 

[Wiiiiiiilliam]

CoD they complained about MW2 being unbalanced now they complain about Black Ops being too balanced.

 

[ramboondiea]

every single damn one of them, you cant please all the people all the time

 

[AmrasCalmacil]

Any fanboy of any fan base. Ever.


A lot of fans are self entitled, whiney bitches, and are only ever satisfied if a sequal ends up being exactly like it's predecessor. Just looks at the whole DA2 mess.

The game is more streamlined.

"Nuhuh! It's dumbed down for the console tards!"

Character archetypes are not as important, so it's not as necessary to always have a 2 mage 1 tank set up, the same level of tactics is still required at higher levels.

"Nuhuh! It's just easier!"

The dialogue wheel streamlines conversation, making a more fun engaging conversation system.

"WAAAAAAAAAAAAH! DRAGON EFFECT 2! WAAAAAAAAH!"

I could do this all day...

This. So much this.
The sheer numbers of people bitching because they feel entitled has made me feel physically sick every time I see a Dragon Age 2 thread.

Or 'WAAAAAAAH, MASS EFFECT 2 IS A SHOOTER BECAUSE YOU DON'T HAVE TO UPDATE YOUR ARMOUR EVERY LEVEL TO GET A +1 TO DERPABILITY!!'

Dear god. Some people.

 

[Twad]

Humans are the hardest to please imho, there is always one that finds one or more problem (legitimate or not) and then others start saying it too.

 

[Johnny Impact]

Superman fans are impossible to please. Everyone has their own very unique interpretation of who or what Superman is and means.

That's because Superman has an appallingly small amount of characterization for someone who has had the spotlight shone on him for so long, so everyone fills him up with their own presumptions. I guess.

Superman isn't a character. He's the personification of the absolute upper end of the yardstick of morality. No real person was ever so good. Superman has no faults, consequently he's uninteresting.
