games that every one hate's but you don't hate.

There is a very similar thread to this. I'll be merging the two momentarily.

As for DQ, I love the whole Zenithian trilogy. DQ6 is great.

Legend of Kage. Just because some fancypants internet dude said it was one of the worst games of all time everyone else repeated it without any self thought. I like the game a lot and it gets right to the oldschool ninja arcade action. If you compare it to other games made at that time, the controls and gameplay are very good and the game runs smooth.

Legend of Kage is a little too formless/primitive for me in terms of the level structure, but it's definitely not awful or anywhere close to "worst game" territory. It probably led to better (to me) ninja games being made a few years later once the rules of the genre became more defined.

I loved all 3 of them, even Legions, I had absolutely great fun with it, don't understand the haters.

Resident Evil 6. Everyone pummels it for being too action-y and abandoning the series survival horror theme. But to me Resi was always more action than horror - action-horror you might call - since literally every single game in the series escalated the action set pieces and over-the-top-ness. So to me Resi 6 was just the natural evolution/culmination of everything the series had built since 1996.

...apparently many disagree with me which why Resi 7 abandoned ALL of that to give us a pure horror game where we are in the shoes of an everyday man and not a trained soldier.

And don't get me wrong, 7 (and 8 by extension) are great games, but in MY world they aren't Resident Evil. I would have accepted them as spin-offs though.

Ive seen people crapping all over Tarzan on the ps1, but it's a nice game! Looks good, sounds nice, it's not Klonoa but it's a good enough simple platformer to breeze through

Chaos Legion on ps2 is also good I dont know whats up with youtubers trashing it; the only problem is that capcom USA screwed up the difficulty so jap hard is normal, making the game super grindy for no good reason
As long as you pick easy first it's a nice mosuo-style game with a very unique puppet mechanic and nice music and atmosphere

The same goes for Nanobreaker, yeah it's no devil may cry but it's still good in its own right and it's very technically advanced

Fire Emblem Fates does have a crummy story and terrible translation but once you install fan english patches + undub it's got pretty fun mechanics, its got a ton of variety and it's fun to mod and mess around with cheats, lots of unique maps, very well animated, good music, good dlc maps..
You can do a lot worst

Sonic CD is amazing if you dont play it like sonic 2 and play it like a 2d exploration game

Wow, another human being who knows about Chaos Legion!
I really loved that game too as a kid. The low rendering distance, esthetics, architecture and soundtrack gave it such a surreal vibe that nothing else managed to surpass it in my eyes.

Even now, when I hear the main menu theme, it fills me with a surreal feeling.

Deadly Towers. There's a good game hiding in there. It's just not executed well enough to be a truly fun experience. Get rid of the ridiculous enemy spawnage, the cheapo ledges of death, the awful "one at a time" sword throwing and add an in-game map and you have a pretty unique and varied experience. It's one of the games I wish would get remade even though I know it will never happen.
