What is a game you enjoy that others don't?

Uhh....Gen V is the best Gen, and its usually considered one of the best ones in the discord here.

Personally I love Skyward Sword in spite of peoples issues with its linearity or Motion Controls, but at least HD alleviates the latter.
Fire Emblem Fates: Birthright specifically, didn't get/finish the other 2. Some people just despise Fates, and from a story point I can kinda see why, but the gameplay is great so thats all I really need

 

I've been very active in all facets of the Pokémon Community and yeah, a big, big portion of the fanbase says BW/BW2 is the best. The only exceptions are like super super casual players who say XY is the best. There's obviously a lot of individuals who say different, like you can find someone who likes just about any game in the main series the most, but that's just the most common answer you'd get in any portion of the community - XY for any overly casual communities, BW/2 for the rest.

Anyways, I don't know if this fully counts, but the New Super Mario Bros games are probably the closest I'd get that I can remember. I've played all but NSMBDS and a lot of people say they think the games are good on a purely objective point, but soulless next to each other and subpar games because of that. I can see where they're coming from with that, I felt nostalgic for NSMBWii when playing NSMBUD two years ago which is a terrible compliment to give it, but the games are a fun time at their core and that's all that should matter. I can agree with a lot of complaints these games get; they're too generic, a change in at least artstyle would have been good if not something else structurally, and we got way too many in way too short of a timespan. At their core, though, these games are all very well-built and are a simple, enjoyable time, even if they could have been a whole lot better.

I'd also like to defend all of the "bad" main series Pokémon games for kind of a similar reason, the main layout of a Pokémon game will always be fun because of the diversity of teams making every run different and the amount of very approachable self-imposed challenges. I know I've said all of this in the Discord recently, but I'd take even my least favorite main series game over most other games that exist. None of them are truly awful, and none of them will be unless something happens on the level of "there's only 30 Pokémon total."

 

Zatch Bell: Momodo Battles

No one knows about it or plays it or whatever, but i love it.

 

Umm, I thought more of people close to ya
but I add Kingdom Hearts, I love the game. But my husband isn't fond of it at all. He likes to watch me play and rage but that is all

 

Okay, so this might seem blasphemous to say, but hear me out.

Mighty No. 9 is actually not that bad of a game. Is it lacking in both polish and quality level design? Absolutely. Would I rather pick any of the actual Mega Man games over this one? Any day of the week.

But at its core, the game actually functions pretty well, and it has a pretty unique mechanic involving buffering the opponents with your blaster and dashing into them. It adds a nice risk/reward system to an otherwise average Mega Man-like experience. If you can snag it for cheap, like I did, then I would say to go for it, especially if you're a Mega Man fan already.

 

I love skyward sword. Its my fav zelda on the wii.
