_. It's actually a good game, but people hate it because it's not _. If it had a different name, then I don't think people would hate it at all.

It could be any game!
I'll go first: Prey

A single man. A single miserable simpering piece of shit on IGN has soiled the reputation of my favorite game for all eternity.

Duke Nukem Forever

No, this is not bait. I actually like it in spite of its very noticeable flaws and 7th gen'isms. Would 100% play it over Borderlands 3 or TLOU 2, and the DLC campaign is a deliberate throw-back to classic Duke Nukem design.

Well never waited any Duke Nukem game and it was the first Duke Nukem I played but it was an enjoyable FPS game. I especially liked shotgun gameplay. Even the toy car sections were a "nice variety".

I guess people waited for so long they wanted to want "something" that they didn't have any idea what they actually wanted and they just didn't want to like the game. IDK they expected GTA Duke Nukem Bloodlines or something lolol.

This one was destined to be unjustifiably hated, it had big shoes to fill. I personally loved it even if the later part was a bit of a mess.

I think Duke Nukem Forever also caught the early rumblings of the first Gamergate when journo's could easily make a fuss over "offensive" jokes, and the iffy launch made it an easy target =_=

The Outfit

Looks like budget Battlefield Heroes with more craziness lol:

The problem is that people expected a direct followup instead of a new story. But nobody gets mad when Final Fantasy does it.

Zelda 2 was different because it became a platformer; one of the very styles Zelda originally set itself apart from by being not a platformer.

I don't think Gamergate had anything to do with it. It was in development hell for a decade and the final product was a broken, unoptimized disjointed mess that only saw the light of day because Gearbox stepped in. It should've been cancelled.

I really didn't care about that whatsoever but disliked the game because of forced 1st main mission to serve a girl as a submissive guy for a BS simp simulator lol.

If you develop an RPG then you gotta put a big "hell no" option then, otherwise cannot call it RPG sorry Japanese devs. Ain't gonna do what I absolutely wouldn't do in real life. No logic for forcing players with that shit.

Taking a different style was something Megaman 7 was all about, and not everyone was down for that. The art style aside, you also had to start on an intro level which set the stage for the introduction to what was going on at a level that was accessible to new fans of the series. They introduced Bass, and featured more dialogue scenes than any in the series before it, and focus was way more on story as well, as well as the exploration and item discovering aspects the series had already been known for. But like I said, some people were just not down for Megaman 7, like as if they wanted it to just continue on the NES forever and stay in that 8-Bit art style every fan has come to know and love.

I loved that era of THQ, they were publishing a lot of fun and goofy games full of character like The Outfit and Saints Row.

Timeline-wise, yes exactly, but game journalism was starting to shift towards what became gamergate; this was the same time frame when normies were freaking out over Mass Effect having romance scenes. Yes, Duke Nukem Forever launched broken and unoptimized, and likely should've cancelled been well before it released, but after all the post release patches and polish (and being reamed by the reviewers) it ended up a pretty fun (in my opinion) game. Naturally, too much damage had been done in the public awareness to save it either commercially or critically, yet here I stan, lol

Damn EA stole a lot from this game for Battlefield lol.

Doom 3

Even if today has more love, the OG DooM 3 is really good and not only a technical masterpiece. the design of the levels and gameplay is really good, even the new design of the monsters.

Duke Nukem Forever was hated because Youtuber wanted to attack its "immoral" jokes (I see many people like "UHGGGG SEX JOKE!) and many of the jokes went in like with what DN3D has.

Besides some issues like having only 2 guns (that worked really well imo) and technical ones like having to reload the whole map each time you died (on my 360 it took "Forever" wink wink), the game was REALLY good and I think really close to the OG 3D.

Doom 3 was sooo good, still is. Not the BFG Edition, fuck that version.
