dromed this shit

don't use retard or any other bigoted slur as an insult pls



im trying to GET BACK ON TOPIC but i cant think of any popular game i dislike where it's not just my personal preferences clashing with what the game is liked for.

i guess final fantasy tactics is overrated because tactics ogre is honestly the better game but isnt as well known because it doesn't have final fantasy in its name.

If people are holding up FFT as a masterpiece of balance and tactical depth, well, yeah, then it's absolutely being overrated.  If people are saying that FFT is janky and broken and a ton of fun because of that, then Toast LeftGrin 

The Tactics Ogre games are better tactics games, but I had more total fun playing FFT.

That, and Tactics Ogre Let Us Cling Together just being a horribly awkward title for a video game in general.

I will say that Tactics is a little overrated. Mostly because it just takes for fucking ever for anything to happen and its impossibly boring.

it has meaningless resource systems, broken balance and bad writing. Unicorns and moustaches meme Adventure time bs were never ever cool dont let them touch you.

I also like how one character is intended to be morbid obese freak by developers, but celebrated by gamejournos as example of divercity.

Borderlands is meme culture personified. Of course everybody loves it. Even though meme culture, much like Borderlands, is a dumpster fire.

borderlands 1 was decent-ish (full disclosure: i genuinely enjoy diablo). i think its a bit less LE MAYMAYS XD filled than the other games? Idk i never read much of the dialog because what i read of it was crap.

first one was kinda good in regard of setting: bits of dark humor here and there, but generally it was serious.
second had Gentleman as first npc and villain talkin about ponies.

First game was fine. It was still dumb but it was tolerable.

I love Diablo though.

otoh i think borderlands 1 is kinda not that good of a shooter AND not that good of diablo game tho. theres next to no build diversity (the skill trees might as well not exist) and the gear (i.e. weapons) is extremely boring. it also suffers from the bullet sponge problem so many modern shooters suffer from.

i actually kinda liked borderlands one a lot (i think something about the aesthetic of its cave interiors ticked a box in my head that hadn't been ticked since metroid prime, and also i loved the way the vehicles handled) but the second, although it had better visual design by far, wasn't something i could get into and i don't even know why. i felt just vaguely bored. not even in a "i'm not having fun" way, but in a "this is fine, sure" way. i just ended up playing better things instead

the writing is pretty mediocre in either case, even if it's closer to okay in the first (the tone, what of it there is, is at least more charming than ennervating in that game)

i just was enlightened.
Borderlands is a shooter where you generally have one gun until you get better gun. Also, ammo is not a thing after first hour. So its like you only use shotgun and have unlimited ammo.

I liked the first Borderlands, although it's been quite awhile since I've played it. From what I remember most of the game was quite fun, and I even enjoyed the DLC. I don't think it's really that overrated.

The second game, however, was something completely different.

Borderlands (1,2,Pre-2) very bland playing solo but highly addictive when playing co-op, especially when playing with others either in the same room (or at least on mic). The real big issue I have with the series is that eventually you are just doing the same 4 or 5 quests over and over, game-to-game.
