People have the guts to swallow their pride and admit it or is it still "FUCKING FAIL"? ;D

This happens with every installment in a game that fans notoriously despise for being different - or jumping on the bandwagon.

Metroid: Other M is probably my favourite behind Super Metroid and had REALLY good gameplay. - OH SHIT SAMUS HAS A VOICE WHAT A PIECE OF SHIT THEY MADE HER GIRLY AND DUMB FUCK THIS SHIT.

DmC basically has the same but enhanced gameplay from the previous entries, in all honesty Dante didn't even change personality wise THAT much from DMC4 as far as I remember - OH NO THEY CHANGED EVERYTHING DANTE'S GAY THIS GAME IS A PIECE OF SHIT.
Another problem was getting the S rank using the same combo - I did that last week in Devil May Cry 1. Silly.

I will admittedly say that I enjoyed Resident Evil 6 a substantial amount, the game was fun and playable and the extra modes where the funnest I've had in the game - THIS IS NOT HORROR (despite RE5 not being horror) STUPID GAME IS SHIT. etc, etc, etc.

A lot of gamers are manchildren who will complain if their precious series is 'tainted'. Games change, developers change, people need to learn to get over it.
We'll see if Dead Rising 3 turns out to be shit, but if it's not then people will still surely hate on it because hating on things on the internet is cool.

Well... yeah, that's right. Before Other M everyone had that image of the fearless bounty hunter and destroyer of worlds. Then she pisses herself when Ridley shows up, even though she killed him five times (or six if you count the manga) with no problems. The problem is not they gave her a voice, but how it was handed. Not to mention how they cut off exploration and the permition to use equipment bullcrap.

A lot of gamers are manchildren who will complain if their precious series is 'tainted'. Games change, developers change, people need to learn to get over it.

If the devs ditch their established fanbase by changing the series/game and not improving it, then we have a serious problem. Especially when people who buy the product do so because it's "part of the series" or "the next installment" or any other BS excuse just to stay on the bandwagon.

This wagon goes both ways. People hate something because it may be cool, and they may like something because everyone else apparently thinks it's cool.

If you want to change something, make a bold move and fire off an entirely different game. Perhaps with watch_dogs and Titanfall we might actually see more of this. Neither of those have any kind of associated hype which is vital to their success (at this point, and Titanfall may have the "old IW staff" sticker attached to it, but people reacted positively to the first vids not because of "Zampella", but because the game looks phenomenally good).

Not all complaining fans are spoiled manchildren. Not all of us manchildren buy our games just to mash some buttons, irregardless of what's going on on the screen.

I have no problems with that. I can think back to what happened with DmC like that. I mean it wasn't the best game in the world but it wasn't a world class fuck up like everyone tried to say it would be.

The game was't a fuck up per se, but it was the new characterization of Dante being...an obnoxious snide douchbag instead of being the over the top wise ass he was original. That seemed to be the real objection fans had about the game.


Theres being a sarcastic wise ass who has some charm...and theres being a obnoxious douchebag. Most players dont want to play a main character who is an obnoxious douchebag.

That came down to whoever wrote the script for the game though.

So..Resident Evil Six?

Wrath - Aside from the vocal community about the look of new Dante before its release there was also a vocal group questioning why Ninja Theory was making it given their below average track record (myself included in the latter). When these were combined most people were expecting a horrible mess of a game.

Personally it was only the god awful writing I hated too.

[Wrathborne]

Ninja Theory has always had potential to make really good games, but they seem to just half ass things way too much. They need to really step up their game if they wanna stick around in the long run.

There was so much more wrong with Other M than that. The general challenge of the game was far less than that of the Prime Trilogy, exploration was extremely limited, the unlock mechanic was flat out dumb, she gets PTS out of nowhere and the excuse for it doesn't wash, the gameplay was not great and incredibly dumbed down thanks to auto-targeting and tapping the D-Pad nonstop being godmode. MP3 was a notably better looking game despite being years earlier and Other M story had stupid written all over it.
