So Pots never created a style is what you're saying

He created some flashy sparks and FX and changed a couple
button commands that's all, everything else is cvs2 EX groove.

Here's an unpopular opinion: I've never heard a satisfactory answer as to why the glut of PotS style releases is inherently worse than that of KOF releases, or MvC releases, or what have you, and I don't expect I will ever hear one.

Has anyone ever released a POTS graphics character that was ripped from a camcorder or claimed to be a KOF XI conversion but was actually a zealously guarded rainbow hadouken spamming cure for all forms of cancer? There's your answer and you better be beyond satisfied > : (

Idea!

I enjoyed Star Wars 7, and I'm probably gonna like TLJ.

To add, I don't really mind that the canon has been changed since I haven't read the older books.

I'm about as apathetic as you can get about these things but that is a fundamental misunderstanding of Pots as a creator and speaks to the underlying mentality of proponents and opponents of MUGEN house style

.....

While I love POTS style as much as the next guy, I can agree that POTS style (Or anything pertaining to CVS) doesn't automatically make a character good. I used to have that mentality a long time ago... until the Genjuro in this video opened my eyes.

It's like Chuchoryu slapping "CVS" on his characters when they DON'T play like CVS2 or POTS at all.

- I like RE5.
That used to be a popular opinion before Resident Evil 6 and Capcom being dumb in general

I love Resi 6, it's a great action game with an incredibly fun campaign full of memorable and rewarding action setpieces and I enjoy the more technical aspects of the game such as the faster combat, more varied enemy design, and its multiplayer modes are incredibly fun and can get pretty competitive when you play against someone who enjoys the game as much as you do. Mercenaries is the best it's ever been and while it may not be as hard or complex as 5's it makes up for it with faster and smoother gameplay and controls that work better with an action game.
I'm disappointed RE7 dropped the action route and went for a ResidentSleeper FPS approach but since it's closer to Resi's roots I know it's for the best... even though I don't really like it.

If you’re gonna reach for a star...
reach for the lowest one you can.

I liked RE7 quite a bit (I do hope they go back to a third person camera in the next game, and try and improve the enemy variety and general combat mechanics, cuz that is an incredibly important part of the franchise), but I've always maintained that there's a big misconception about RE the franchise: that RE's core is horror, and that if only the franchise would return to horror everything would be fixed. That's simply not the case! The series has always been an incredibly goofy spin on cheesy B-movies—from the very first game!—and while the horror theme is definitely an important aspect of the franchise, it is by no means a franchise that has ever tried to be particularly bone-chilling. The best it can manage is a few jump scares, and that's OK!

I don't think anyone has claimed that PotS invented any completely brand new systems of gameplay, but that doesn't mean he didn't create a unique game style. CvS2's EX groove doesn't even have a set form, it's all customizable; furthermore, you can't make any iteration of PotS's gameplay system in CvS2, even if the groove edit's point system didn't exist. Pots style has a lot of inspiration from a wide variety of fighting games, from both Capcom and SNK.

The Force Awakens isn't bad because of what it did to Luke Skywalker, or how it handled Snoke and Reys lack of backstory, or any other fanboy nonsense.

The Force awakens is a bad movie because the pacing is awful, the tone of the movie is all over the place, and it has several plot treads that just grind to a halt and go nowhere. It can't decide if it wants to be a super serious drama, or a goofy guardians of the galaxy knockoff.

No amount of kamakazi runs into a star destroyer scenes could save that trainwreck.

Nothing to do with Muh skywalker wouldn't do THAT!

That's quite a broad and very vague statement. I'm not trying to start anything, just curious as to what you mean by "all games are clones". Could you point out the similarities of games?

I mean, you can just substitute "games" with "movies", "shows", "foods", "books", etc. and have the same broadness and vagueness. It just sounds odd to me is all and needs explanation.

Super Mario Fighters 3 resurrected.

Earthworm Jim was a terrible platformer, only redeemable for some stage concepts (ISO 9000 and What the Heck), graphics, and sound. 2 was even worse overall than 1, and 3D was the best in the "series". Gameplay wise there is so much wrong with the first two. Enemies blindsight you quite often, swinging in 1 is god awful, it runs ALL of it's minigames into the dirt, whipping being too slow to use effectively, can't switch weapons on the Genesis version of 2, it's "humor" isn't that funny in the long run but it's slightly better in 3D, the quiz in Villi People relying on nothing more than really bad trial and error, Buttville/Use Your Head is a massive and unprofessional difficulty spike (I see what they did there...) filled with instant or close to instant deaths, See Jim Run has lots of beginner's traps, aiming is finicky, Lorenzo's Soil, Tube Race, For Pete's Sake, Villi People, and The Flyin' King are some of the most irritating and tedious stages I have ever had to play in any game. Also, you know, this game pretty much, pretty much created/popularized escort missions.

It only truly serves as a prototype for Cuphead to do everything this series did better 2 decades later, including but not limited to a "bizarre looking" protagonist and fluid handdrawn animation. It amazes me how people call those games better than Super Mario World, pretty much the pinnacle of 2D Mario games to this day.

Rayman 1 is another bad game that got AMAZINGLY lucky. French version of Mario? How did they go so far off from the clear path of actually good game design decisions then...? I despise platformers where you cannot attack in midair. At least Rayman came around to eventually spawn Origins...

Crash Twinsanity is the worst Crash game. It's far too quirky for it's own good, and started the VERY unfunny/morbid sense of humor that Crash Tag Team Racing would take to 11, it's soundtrack is alright but annoying, has nothing on WoC's, and Crash is mute. They should have just canned it like the few other neat ideas for Crash games later on.

I counter your opinion with my own unpopular opinion: I think Crash Twinsanity needs a remake by the guys behind N.Sane Trilogy.
And I hope the game's gonna be actually finished this time around!

I think the switch will go out like the Dreamcast
since someone already hacked the CPU and found
the boot file on it, pirated games are coming soon
and low sales for the games likely to turn away
developers from the console.

Get one now before a new model gets released
with a fix to that mess!

Oh, and ported to the Switch, of course. Can't forget about that.

I wouldn't say that a Twinsanity remake by VV is an unpopular request, pretty much the #1 type of comment you'll see on any Twinsanity videos.

I also didn't know the Switch already got broken into. Wow.

Quote from article

"What makes this Nintendo Switch hack special is that it can’t be patched in the currently released consoles. This is because the exploit was found in the boot ROM process of Nvidia Tegra X1 chips that can’t be patched with software or firmware updates."

It was entirely possible to attack while jumping in rayman. The worst bits in it were the pure flying levels and the forced scrolling ones. But many games have those.

In M.U.G.E.N there is no magic button

They say a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, but it's not one half so bad as a lot of ignorance.

Time for my biggest unpopular opinion yet.
From a mere financial standpoint, I think it was a good idea that Konami fired Kojima.
He simply ate away too much money when developing the Metal Gear Solid games, because he wasn't developing games, but AAA Hollywood Blockbuster movies with a bit of gameplay inside.
Of course Konami could have handled the situation much better, but that's beside the point.
My point is that Konami should have retired Kojima rather sooner than later. Because who knows, maybe whatever he has planned for the next MGS could have become the Shenmue 2 of Konami that would bring the company into bankruptcy.

Super Mario Fighters 3 resurrected.

Super Paper Mario would be a much better game (For me) if, it HAD to be a platformer instead of an RPG, it was as "simple" as NSMBW (Technically if it were to take NSMBW's place), but kept the stage ideas (Except for just downright shitty nonsensical timewaster stages like the Pits and the stupid 100 Samurai world...), bosses (Not too keen on the grand amount of "lore"...) and 3D gimmick from what it is today.

I guess I could lump this in under: Mario and Luigi (Superstar Saga and Partners in Time) are the best Mario RPG games, due to being able to dodge enemy attacks instead of just... Sitting there. For me at least, and I've played Seven Stars and the first 4 Paper Marios.
