I can't stand people who consider themselves better because they don't like blank while the herds of so-called sheep enjoy blank.

You don't like it, big whoop. The people who enjoy blank are a lot happier playing blank than you will ever be feeling self-important for not liking blank, so get over yourself.

I hate threads that talk about why people can't understand why people like something.

PEOPLE ARE DIFFERENT!

Every single game culture critic that thinks gaming is about to end as we know it or face a mass revolution. seriously every week i hear at least 5 different theories about the direction gaming is going. and a lot of the time what a critic says one week will conflict with what they said will happen weeks before. (I'm looking at you Extra Credits). In anthropology we looked at how most every culture throughout human history thought they were at the end times or the apex and they were all wrong. My point is that its impossible to know which way the winds will blow in a month so please don't pretend you'll know where they'll blow in 10 years. this is simple chaos theory people!

Don't you worry about blank. Let ME worry about blank!

But yeah, pretty much anything that is that popular is ridiculously overrated, even the good characters. I can't think of any specific popular characters that I hate, at the moment...

edit: Oh, anyTHING! I don't care much for ironsights. They don't ruin a game, but some people seem to regard them as essential to their enjoyment of a shooter, and it baffles me.
BLANK! BLANK?! You're not looking at the bigger picture!
Don't forget to get a cure for your boneitis, guys.

Also, Call of Duty: Black Ops. It can be fun, but it's just a shooter. It isn't some revolutionizing megagame that puts everything else to shame.

This. By, like, a million times.
What's the point in griping over stuff you don't like, when it's obvious to you that it's not inherently bad. There are four things that happen in these threads; somebody assumes something crap is actually more than just either a joke or niche appeal, somebody acts like a pretentious git for being 'non-conformist' and not playing a popular game, somebody trolls, and somebody misses the entire point of a game. At least 3 of them have already happened.

I don't understand the love for Fallout 3. I heard a million praises for it, and was told I had to play it because I love Oblivion. I played it. I was underwhelmed.

I dunno. Opinions are opinions I guess.

Also, post 666. Woo.

This x1000.

These sort of completely pointless threads keep showing up on the Escapist quite a lot. We get it, you have a different opinion. Good for you. In fact, not good for you; there's one less thing in the world that you can't enjoy. Stop ruining our fun and spread your misery elsewhere.
Grow up, folks. If you can't stand someone else having an opinion that SHOCK HORROR! Contradicts your own, you should probably avoid the internet.

I don't see you giving any explanation why you like these things. You could take 30 seconds to say 'ok, that's your opinion, that's cool. But *Blank* is cool because... And that's my opinion' and maybe you could contribute to a discussion. As it is, I'll go back to twirling my mustache and spread MMMMIIIIISSSSSEEEERRRRYYYYYY! Seriously, that's your comeback?

I agree with you. Blank is terrible. Has absolutely nothing going for it, pushes no boundaries, and, really, is just bland.

As for Gordon Freeman, well:

If you don't see it, you probably never will.
I appreciate this, thanks for taking the effort to provide something besides bile! That is a pretty badass picture, I must admit.

I don't like regenerating health. The only difference between difficulty at that point is how much I need to use cover. It also takes away from people who like to explore levels.
I really never got that complaint about regenerating health, it isn't like the game forces you to not explore the area and stay behind cover. Hell now that you have regenerating health it means you can explore a lot more without the chance of getting shot to death when you have one HP from a lone grunt that you missed.

OT: I hate Online Pass. I use a different hard drive than my brother. And because of that EA made it so I can't play Dead Space 2 online. It is retarded.

Bioware =p.

Boy, gona get a lot of hate for this, I'm sure... Well maybe not, now that I said it...
Oh, I agree.

Personally, I've never liked third-person games, and after finding NWN 1 extremely lacking (After I got through a couple levels I thought, literally: "Why did I spend my time doing that? I could have been sleeping.") I never really could get excited for any Bioware games.

But, on the other hand, if you don't like Bethesda, you're not human.

You've got a right to feel about them how ever you wish. I may love BioWare, but I won't attack someone for saying they don't. What I do have a problem with however, is when people feel the need to express how they feel about a game/game company by insulting its fans and saying they're idiots for liking something that they don't.

OT: I never really liked Gordon Freeman either, he doesn't even have any kind of development other than looking like Hugh Laurie with a crowbar.
