Dark Souls II. It's an excellent game, just because it does things different doesn't make it this steaming pile of garbage people think it is.

Breath of the Wild, not that it needs me to defend it. You're playing it wrong if you hoard your weapons or if you think you can't do anything in the rain.

I'm not sure I have one. At least not one where it's recent enough in my mind to justify defending it. I'm too critical even of games I like. I can find a flaw in most games. Though I might still argue if it's a particular point I don't agree on. I really wish I had that one game I could see as perfect, or so near perfect I couldn't complain lol.

None. Everything has flaws, I will acknowledge them at the same time I will praise games and the elements that are worthy of praising. I will get irrational whenever people shit on highly acclaimed games and say it's objectively shit because it doesn't align with what they think a good game should be. Or whenever people just downplay entire western gaming or AAA gaming

Persona 1 and 2 are the best ones and yeah.
Chrono trigger is the best game ever made and has never even been approached by another and if u say otherwise fuck your mom and dad

Xenogears is perfect and disc 2 made it even more perfect.

I find RE4 and Shadow of the colossus to be basically perfect games. I can't think of ways to make them better, they're just perfect for me. I also have a friend who dislikes both of those games and i will never in my life be able to understand.

I'm too lazy for that.

I can make a comment or two but after I'm just "who cares"

I'd defend any game I like, but obviously people are allowed to have different opinions.

Maybe Mario Sunshine fits the topic best. It's quite hated, but to me it's one of the all-time greatest and I could argue for it if needed.

Breath of Fire for sure. A series that has earned a sequel like years ago, but they still didn't manage to give us something after Dragons Quarter.

Dark Souls II. The best souls game ever made.

Xenoblade 1, BOTW, Pokemon Black and White, and some Fire Emblem games (Sacred Stones, Path of Radiance and Three Houses most of all).

Skyward Sword, always. It's the best 3D Zelda imo and nothing will ever make me change my mind. All the backlash it still gets actually makes me nervous that a remaster could ruin it for me if they decide to "fix" stuff like they did with Majora's Mask 3D.

Metroid Other M. I loved the hell out of it. Only game I beat numerous times in every difficulty.

Phantasy Star Online was the best pound-for-pound online gaming experience ever.

I used to have one, but I gave up. The only time it's ever mentioned on here is when someone shits on it. I show my enthusiasm elsewhere lol.

I don't really fight it, I'm just quietly annoyed, but Zelda's, Metal Gear's and Final Fantasy's make me feel this way. I have a friend who is really unfamiliar with and dismissive of Zelda games, and it's a bit irritating when he sings the praises of Zelda-likes.

Japanese games too. I have two friends who are very passionate about games unless they're Japanese. I was poked fun at for playing a "weeb game" after talking about Nier: Automata.

Detroit: become human.

It's buried under a pile of David cage hate and it makes me so sad.
It's one of the most intense game I've ever play, I've rarely been so invested in the fate of my characters. The branching narrative is unmatched and the production value is up there with the best of the best.

I've "forced" some friends around me to play it and they all loved it. It was very entertaining to talk about our individual playthroughs because they were drastically different from one another.

If you don't like Gears of War you are wrong, have bad taste in video games, and probably like bad movies and music too.

Pokemon Mystery Dungeon. Game gets absolutely destroyed by critics yet there are a lot of fans for good reason.

Pokemon Black/White. The Pokemon, the region, the sequel. THE ABSOLUTE PEAK OF THE SERIES! FUCKING FIGHT ME IF YOU DISAGREE!

have you ever had to defend that game? its like the one the most people seem to say is the best, especially on this forum.

Gran Turismo 5

When everything taken into account, it remains the most amazing racing game ever made.

Dude come on lol

That thing took forever to develop and we got over 80% of the cars and almost half the maps from old games that looks like shit and mind you, no cockpit view or dynamic damage for those old models.

Till this day, thinking about GT5 pisses me off so much, NOT because I didn't like it, it was great and I spent countless hours racing in night mode. It was also the best looking racing game of that time. But the fact that we had to wait so much to get what we got, I can not comprehend. And at time I also read how much Polyphony Digital has spent in development. For life of me I can not understand where did all the money go.

So its actually the contrary to what you said, game is great if you look at it in a vacume but if everything is taken into account it just doesn't hold up

seeing people talk about Persona 5, RE4, MGS 2, and Skyrim here is hilarious

aren't those games critically acclaimed and widely loved by the public?

anyway, my pick is FFXV which is kinda divisive I guess
