Yeah I liked PH more than ST, the temple wasn't annoying at all, and the overall theme of being a speedrun temple just made it more appealing. The level design of the floors was top notch to the point that I loved re-exploring it over and over again, whereas the same concept in, say SS, would get monotonous easily because purely linear exploration with no interesting locales/enemies to make up for it, save for the desert

It's sad and happy at the same time. It's like nostalgia: the song even tho I had never heard it until last summer (of course that summer meant a lot anyway so that made it truly meaningful, but still – it's so amazingly emotional).

Every single Nintendo 64 game except superman 64 (the textures are blurry, muddy  and ugly. Everything is either running at 5 fps or it's full of jarring blobby 2D sprites that clash with the environment)  Hand Thumbs Down Left

Every single fighting game (wow a competition in who can memorize and input cheatcodes in real time the fastest, what a great time!) Tekken is arbitrarily exempt! Bushido Blade doesn't count!

Half-Life (it's fun but it was secretly the first popular bad FPS and paved the way for 800,000 clones wich shifted focus where you also had to listen to hours of NPCs telling you about the justification a bad writer came up with for someone to shoot hundreds of monsters with sci-fi guns, essentially ruining the genre)

Unreal (by me) (it's a good gam and mindblowing at the time and the weapons are really creative and mostly hold up, the story and tone is perfect for the genre and it still has the best music in an FPS by far, but let's be honest: the real reason it resonates so well with me is because I was stuck with it as the only newish game to play for several years because I didn't have money or internet. Even though the AI was great the combat actually generally compares poorly to its contemporaries exactly because the developers realized nobody would notice the AI unless they made every enemy about 7x as strong as you'd expect from looks and genre experience, which made those cool and creative weapons feel unimpactful and unsatisfying)

Zelda 3 (same reason as Half-Life. Good game but shifted focus from free exploration, problem solving and genuine sense of adventure, to following directions from NPCs)

Neoliberalism (The loan-based economy with eternal concentration of wealth to a rent-seeking elite is obviously not socially or economically sustainable. Senseless market deregulation and privatization has served only corporate interests and led to ever worse compensation and conditions for workers, along with irresponsible exploitation of resources. SAPs are nothing but thinly veiled neo-colonialism and have had devastating effects on countries and people of the global south) Hand Thumbs Down Right Hand Thumbs Down Right

Every game that is not my favorite or that I dislike is overrated solely based on the fact I said so. Don't bother arguing against my hastily made opinions because somewhere out there on the internet someone probably agrees with me and maybe, just maybe, a random blog made by an overzealous basement troll reaffirms my sentiments therefore I am absolutely correct. I refuse to believe otherwise. Also, everything you enjoy is overrated because I enjoy making inflammatory statements for no good reason. Now enjoy your overrated garbage while I play some Street Fighter 5. *Takes a sip of his juice box*

Agreed, on top of that the austerity measures, which the game presents as the solution to "develop the economy", makes massive cuts in public services and their workers, increases prices on essential goods, and the "flexible conditions for companies" are just code to take away power from workers to give them to employers.
To my disbelief, this game is on the GOTY list of many countries every year. It's also the favorite in the European Union, which even makes countries that don't like it to play for years, and threatens those who don't like the game enough.

And every patch just seems to make it even more imbalanced. It's like the developers are doing it on purpose!
