Mainstream Popular games you hate

[Deleted]

I hate people that hate games!

Seriously though, I don't hate any games and I don't blame games for all sorts of things or the industry for not catering my every single desire.

[Attackrabbit]

I don't particularly hate any games but I do find the hype surrounding certain games to be mind boggling

[D3athsting]

Destiny

Because i've never seen a game so much hyped and advertised by TV and non gaming related press who described it as a revolutionary game and the second coming...

Tbh i only see two revolutionary games in the fps genre, Wolf3d who created it and Quake who introduced 3d models and online multiplayer...

Really hating so many things is an art form, i'm sure there's more.

Well, actually, it's one of the most common things out there; going against the norm, hating things other people like just out of principle, deciding that if someone likes something, you won't like it.

A lot of young people exhibit this behavior. You often grow out of it, though. Not always, of course.

I hate people who hate games

[Thunderball]

Basically games designed for consoles: simplified gameplay, console ports, games designed for console controllers. Should especially mention Dark Souls, because I have no idea how can anyone who ever played a quality RPG designed for PC can call it even a remotely good RPG game.

[Yunru]

Any pc game with console UI.....i just cant play those. I want more buttons!!!!!!

And any moba and free too play game.

The opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference.

There's lots of games i dont play, because i don't enjoy them. Sports games, LoL, Dark Souls ~ the list goes on. But why should i develope hate for a game? Games can't even do stuff against me that makes me hate them. What did they do to you people? Did your wife leave you because spending time with Bioshock was better than spending time with you?

[Drakiru]

GTA (love SR3 though)
All mobas
Borderlands 2
Bioshock Infinite (liked 1&2)

Also I didn't like Skyrim that much, I had some fun with it but it felt like a shallow ocean of content.

[Arkuri]

Call of Duty and Battlefield are the biggest offenders.

Pretty much anything EA makes anymore.

Bethesda's F__k up with TES:O.

GTA I'm sure has a special spot in Hell.

League of Legends just needs to die, along with the entire Xbox Live Community.

If a franchise seems unappealing, I simply avoid it. Two execptions:
- fps on consoles, they influenced and lowered the quality of fps on PC
- Madden, EA's exclusive deal prevents smart, strategic football simulations

[CheeseDoodlez]

Minecraft, any MOBA style game and FPS games on console...

[Deleted]

First of all Pokemon and Zelda.
Then Mario, Sonic all the old sega/nintendo/whatever games.
Also FPS games on consoles.

[barackopala]

I know this has been done before but whatever..

What mainstream / popular video game franchises do you despise?

For me it is the following:
Deus Ex
Torchlight

I wouldn't consider those games mainstream at all.

[Deleted]

i am really peaceful fella, don't hate anybody in real life, and also don't really see the point in it.

But you could say i hate League of Legends!

Not that i particularly cared about the game or whatever (played it in Beta, and it might even be a completely different game now). But the association of RITO and League of Legends with the fucking Pendragon, who destroyed large parts of my childhood (dota-allstars.com) and had the balls to fill it with shitty LoL propaganda, will make me forever hate Pendragon, League of Legends and anyone who is associated with it.

[Tekkommo]

Probably lots more, but short list would be.

Carl on Duty
League of Nubs
Ass ins Creep.

[Feali]

League
CoD
Battlefield
StarCraft (just never tried it)

[Kathandira]

Hate is a strong word.

I dislike Realistic War FPS's. COD, BF, MoH and so on. I also dislike MOBA's

[Deleted]

Destiny, fifa and alot of the new cod games.

[Xilurm]

I can't think of any. Every franchise is fun in its own way.
