Post your searing hot takes

as much as i love final fantasy - dragon quest is > tier square enix properties for me. (and i was a FFXI head for years back when it was new on top obv loving the great ones lol)

edit*: even that dragon warrior monster for gameboy back in the day ate up a lot of my life breeding monsters to see if i can get hosses to kill the arena haha.
 
Slasher movies are soooo boring

You get a kill every 10 minutes and most of them aren't too interesting. And you can't tell me that some big scary guy with a mask that doesn't talk doesn't get boring after a while

Nightmare on Elm Street is nice because Freddie is funny and the concept is really interesting. But the Halloween or Friday the 13th franchise is really dull and boring
 
in game rewards granted by watching ads are a perfect design feature for everyone involved, and infinitely preferable to microtransactions. The rewards are easily accessible to the player, can be ignored if they find them too overpowered, and come at no cost to the player. The developers still get paid, but there is no risk of little timmy stealing moms credit card. I want more games to do this. Mobile games would be so much less predatory if this were the case.

Damn, getting my factual hot take deleted, smh a trans girl can't have anything around here

Anyway, less spicy one i guess, FIFA and other sports games are even more preadtory in nature then actual full blown gacha games and should be treated just as awfully as them

What do you mean by Ultimate Team and microtransactions aren't family friendly and totally not an alternative to gambling?

im not talking about games that have unavoidable ads. the ads i am refering to are optional.

There's still a very obvious incentive for the company to have you watch the ads, in turn meaning it's to their advantage to have progression, etc. be frustrating without viewing the ads. In other words, there's no reason it would make gameplay that doesn't engage with the money-grubbing crap any better.

i see your point, but it is still much better than microtransactions, as it is accessible to everyone, and wouldnt prey on children.
 
i have no idea how friday night funkin got as popular as it did. its gameplay dosent seem that fun to play or watch, and the music is average at best. i dont think a single song from it would even make my top 1,000 video game songs.

i just listened to both those songs, and neither of them i would describe as slaping. milf is fine, and pico is ok i guess. the best song from the game that ive heard was ugh, and that was decently good, but the monotomony of the instements really cripples the songs.
