For the sake of originality, please don't say CoD or Battlefield, I think we all can agree those are overhated.

My list:
Earthbound
Team Fortress 2
Left 4 Dead

Also this. The Battlefield franchise is way overrated. The quality of it ended at Bad Company 2.

pretty much every turn-based rpg, i've played some of the highest rated ones like chrono trigger and final fantasy 9 and the combat is incredibly dull, simplistic and boring, and it doesn't help that there's an enemy encounter like every 5 steps you take.

Anything available for smartphones.

Those games are severely and stupidly simple while being excessively overrated.

It's nuts.

Most MMOs. Comic-based games, except old spiderman. Starcraft. Brawl games (Mortal Kombat, WWE etc).

Finally, someone who realizes that everyone insults those franchises.

Personally, I don't have an answer to this. There are games I find overrated, but I still really enjoy them.

Maybe you should try the Mario RPGs like Super Mario RPG or the Paper Mario series. The combat in those games is much more involved and random battles don't exist; you see the enemy you fight on the over world. If you make contact then you fight them.

Never mind, this is my new answer.

The Last of Us. It was just really boring to me and the AI was completely retarded. Dropped it like halfway through. Multiplayer was actually kind of fun, but got old very fast because there was so little content. I dislike most flavor of the month AAA games, but TLoU was IMO the most overrated game in recent memory.

I never got the appeal behind Minecraft.

I also don't like the original FarCry. ( I haven't played the sequels, yet.)

I didn't like the Final Fantasy styled combat. When I play overhead view games on the (S)NES, I prefer it to have combat like the Legend of Zelda or Zombies Ate My Neighbors where you just fight and kill on the spot, rather than taking me out of the game, only to make a gamble as to whether or not you'll hit the opponent.

You just gave me a couple new games to add to my list:
Anything past Ocarina of Time. Seriously, the game is just fucking hard, and from my experience, it only tells you the info that you desperately need ONCE. The games aren't straight forward, and in order to proceed or gain any progress, you need to search on the internet.

I could never get into Portal or the Dark Souls series, I honestly thought those games weren't anything special.

Minecraft, fun for a couple of hours, but after that it's a test of patience and pointless fetching for items, certainly not my idea of fun.

Gone Home, probably the biggest crock of shit of a game I've seen in a long time. I can't believe that people will praise this game for it's extreme linearity, bad fan-fiction type writing and dialogue, and logical gaps that are too big to ignore. People who declared this game GOTY last year over games like The Last of Us were fucking stupid.


Just stop worrying, and love the bomb.

I don't give a fuck! EarthBound and Mother 3 are the two games that you should never, EVER talk shit about!

Would it be better if I talked shit about something else? Such as Legend of Zelda, Mario Bros 1, 2, 3, or Contra? Or Pokemon?

Cannot stand Link To The Past is one of the most grating, janky, boring games i've ever played, ever. I despise it.
