Gaming hot takes? (lemmy.fmhy.ml)

Any weird/controversial opinions? I'll start. Before the remake, the best version of Resident Evil 4 was the Wii version. The Wiimote controls old Resi's tank controls better than any other controller at the time. The PC version had a bunch of little bugs and detractors that the Wii version just doesn't have.

I'll extend this by saying that the Wiimote is actually pretty damn good for shooters, and particularly good for accessibility. Not having to cramp up my hands to press buttons is awesome for having arthritis. Aiming with the Wiimote and moving with the nunchuck just feel really natural, you barely have to move your fingers for anything.

Mine? Mystic Quest was fine. It was a fine game. Was it amazing? No. Easy as heck but the charm and personality of the game is just so great. The music slaps, the world is fun even if it is restricted to linear paths. People treat it like it's the most brazen insult to JRPGs. It's just not true. It's a perfectly average game that is a fun beat-it-in-a-day game.

ULTRA HOT TAKE.

…I also enjoyed Mystic Quest. It was universally hated.

Last time I posted this hot take, reddit absolutely buried me. But hey, I stand by my gaming opinions!

It’s wild. As soon as it was usable on smartphones, Reddit just became “DOWNVOTE MEANS I DON’T LIKE THIS”

Lemmy is so refreshing.

The SNES final fantasy??

It was kinda fun to play through (mostly just to listen to the music) but the fact that there is basically zero challenge hurts the game a lot.
