Worst Fandoms for a game?

[thumbsdown]

All of them

I'm not aware of any popular game that doesn't have a terrible fanbase.

Mmmmh.... Kirby? Donkey Kong? Metroid?

Unless they couldn't qualify as popular games.

Nintendo fans are generally terrible, yes, and I say that as someone who likes the characters you listed. I don't meet too many people that are just fans of Kirby or just fans of DK; they have an attachment to the company itself. As for Metroid, the worst of that fandom tends to come out when they're arguing about which games suck the most, especially if someone admits to liking Other M.

FF7 EU fans. Not saying that hatred is the only sensible position to have in regards to the... "creative liberties" taken with the original game's plot. However, I find defense of these changes to be either brain dead or made in bad faith.

The worst fandom I've experienced were Kingdom Hearts fans, so much that it made me hate the franchise. Nowadays I appreciate KH1&2, but dude; those people were the most pretentious @#%$$%#% people I've talked to.

Yeah, I really like the Final Fantasy VII Remakes, but I'm fully aware that they are, at their core, a semi-faithful reimagining with the twist that Cloud is a precog. Part of the appeal of playing the Remakes and then going back and playing the original game and vice versa is seeing what differences there are and how things were approached in both titles. It shouldn't be defended, it should be compared and contrasted to see which one the person prefers.

And Classic FF7 purists are, honestly, just as bad. It's like the Star Wars OT purists and Mr. Plinkett Parrots from when the Prequels had wrapped up.

No, please go on. FF7 remake is a train wreck that never fails to entertain me.

You... REALLY don't like these games, don't you?
EDIT: Look, it's fine if you don't. I think we should keep our opinions to ourselves here.

Interestingly enough I do like the game itself. The plot and its story are complete trash, but the gameplay, which is the most important thing of any game is really good. Haven't tried the "sequel" yet, but the Yuffie DLC for the first one showed an improvement in the systems. So, at least it's a fun game to play. Doesn't excuse the fact that there's nothing worth experiencing between the gameplay, though.
