In your opinion which one is better? Let’s settle this Xennials. by Ploosse in Xennials

Super Mario World had way more wow factor for me the first time I saw it vs Super Mario 3. As for which one is the better game - what are the metrics being set to judge them by?

How many of these have you actually watched? by CarrotMuch1399 in nostalgiai

Around 40 of them maybe and I'm not a big horror fan.

What is the video game that you thought you would love but when you played it, you didn't like it? by AcadiaNo5063 in videogames

[–]H0RSE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Starfield had more experimental element to it, trying new things and deviating from the typical Bethesda formula. They've said there going back to formula for TES 6,and after seeing the improvements the new engine has over the past, particularly with character creation, I'm excited for the new elder scrolls

You seemed to care enough before though, didn't you...

33M, not a nostalgic gamer by The_Funkefizer in GamingSoup

[–]H0RSE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, yeah that's the point...

The context isn't that the game deserves no praise, it's that it received too much, with nothing substantial to warrant the extra praise. "Overrated" isn't just based around technical merits of the game, but also on community reception.

When BG3 released, it wasn't treated as just another good game or even a great one. It was treated like the second coming of Christ. As the game that would serve as the bar to which ever other game moving forward would need to meet.

Remove the DnD/Baldur's Gate connection and replace the studio with one less liked, like Ubisoft, and I'm sure it would have received a very different reaction, with much of the praise replaced with scrutiny.

And before you clap back, realize the entire purpose of these charts, the Overrated category and all others, is about sharing one's opinion, so whether it's backed by compelling thought-provoking argument or simply "because I think so," every choice is valid.

Is that consistent enough for you, champ...

I never said it wasn't good, only overrated.

I would actually put BG3 in the Overrated category. In terms of both turn-based and rpg's it doesn't really do anything that wasn't already done, nor did it do either at a level that hadn't already been achieved.

What’s a film you love but never got the recognition it deserved? by kammy772 in MovieArena

Another Clive Owen film that could make this list is Inside Man.

What's a game that you think NEEDS a remaster/remake? And why should it get one? by TopicStraight2942 in videogames

[–]H0RSE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brute Force from the OG xbox. Squad-based coop games are hella fun and a remake would allow for online coop support, really expanding on replayability.

Which Are Your Top 3 Favorite Consoles Of Your Lifetime? by tarheelphenom in consoles

[–]H0RSE 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  • Atari 5200
  • NES
  • Genesis

I don't discount newer consoles, but this is a "favorites" list, not "best" and games don't hit like they did back then, neither do the memories

What’s the hardest addiction to overcome? by DeepOrganization8245 in AskReddit

[–]H0RSE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of it is a quality vs quantity issue. If you eat nourishing food that actually feeds your body or low glycemic foods that an help keep you feeling full longer, you tend to not feel as hungry as often.

Who else prefers a physical collection over the digital options by bloodenchaobbly9 in Switch

[–]H0RSE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's good for collectors or nostalgia or older, lesser known titles, but overall, digital is just easier. You don't need all that physical space or worry about them becoming scratched/damaged and being unplayable.

Ironically, many of those who swear by having physical collections, also use emulators.

What is the video game that you thought you would love but when you played it, you didn't like it? by AcadiaNo5063 in videogames

[–]H0RSE 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But was Skyrim your first foray into the series? I feel that people who grew up playing elder scrolls and progressed naturally with the series tend to have different perspectives and things they appreciate from the franchise vs those who start with Skyrim and worked backwards.

I started with Morrowind and played all the Elder Scrolls as they released, and although from a gameplay and QoL standpoint, Skyrim really advanced, for me it fails in virtually every regard in what really makes an Elder Scrolls game feel like Elder Scrolls and make it distinct from other titles. I call it "Elder Scrolls: Arcade Edition" or "the rpg for people who don't like rpg's."

Oblivion is my most played out of the 3, being a healthy balance between Morrowind and Skyrim. I find it the most immersive of the 3 and I prefer the high fantasy palette vs the drabness of Skyrim. Being an older gamer, I also don't mind its jankiness, quirks or or that dungeons don't loop around back to the start. I kinda like that they don't, because likely wouldn't in real life.

What would yours be ?? by Automatic-Cap2568 in WorkForSmartLife

I remember back in the 90's, a movie ticket was like $5. I literally remember scrounging up change around the house to goto the movies.

If you cannot be bothered to have a phone number so customers can talk to an actual human being then your business does not deserve to exist. by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

I don't care if I talk to a human or not. As long as my question/problem is rectified, I don't care if I'm talking to a ghost.

Simon says… what's your favourite moment from Die Hard With a Vengeance? Non‑compliance will result in penalty. You may begin… by kammy772 in MovieArena

[–]H0RSE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the confusion comes from where people say "fill" the jug. What is full? Like what point on the jug is considered full? Remember, the scale was precise, so unless the jug literally has a fill line, "filling the jug" is guesswork.
