It's a remake of a classic game and it doesn't basically copy-paste the story! complaining about the changes in plot and ending were inevitable. I think it's well liked among MOST of those who are playing it, that's the feeling I get from several forums and sites. The average rating here on Gamefaqs is 4.2/5 and on Metacritic user score is 8/10.

The really shocking thing about 2018 is that there seems to be no ceiling on Link that can be observed. Like if Breath of the Wild 2 is another major success, he could end up doubling the next strongest character, who could just be Zelda anyway. Maybe Ganon gets more focus this time around, and he can start beating the lower tier Noble 9ers like Snake and Sonic with little trouble. I'm still unconvinced that Link much boosted in 2018, if at all. Link vs Ganondorf was already putting up 58% on Cloud vs Sephiroth during the rivalry rumble in 2011 and Link beating Cloud with 60% seems more like Cloud dropping than Link boosting. He also got 68% on Pikachu, but he already got 68% on Mega Man back in 2004 and Pikachu = Mega Man. The rest of his matches were just Zelda SFF fests. abdou posted... FFVIIR is the first FF in a long time that is actually liked by most people. It should at least keep Cloud/Tifa in the upper echelon of the characters contests..I am really interested to see how it would do in a games contest as well, it should be stronger than any of the 'weak' FF main games like FF12, FF13 and FF15. I'd wait until the honeymoon period is over before declaring FFVIIR "the first FF in a long time that is actually liked by most people". FF15 and SS went through this as well when it came out (lots of early threads for both were gushing with praise). Not to mention I've already seen lots of hate starting for FFVIIR on various gaming forums, especially for the ending. --- congrats to BKSheikah the BYIG guru ... Copied to Clipboard!

Incredibly significant as there is every reason for Life is Strange to have gotten stronger.... no? Life is Strange was at its peak in 15 and 16. Two underwhelming successors cooled people on the brand, and its tumblr-esque fanbase moved on a long time ago. It has almost certainly gotten weaker. --- If you're only on this board to whine about "SJWs", please redirect whatever you type on to the nearest trash can. And hop in after it. ...

Zelda was definitely on a bandwagon against Link in that final, combined with LAW giving him antivotes, mostly at first.

Hence why I said mainlineStuff like Tri Force Heroes, Links Crossbow Training, or Four Swords or whatever can probably be written off as side games. However, the DS Zeldas are some pretty Zelda-y Zelda games and I dont think it makes sense to say theyre not mainline just because theyre portable or not good. Its not like most of series is numbered or has a meaningful overarching plot to let us make these distinctions. And Ive never heard of anyone not willing to grant Links Awakening main series status. --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] [NO Advokaiser NO PEACE] ... Copied to Clipboard!

Nintendo definitely considers Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks main games. Pretty sure anything that got propped up in the Hyrule Historia timeline is considered a 'main game'.

More seriously, 2016 wasn't a great year for games being strong here:
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/6575-best-of-2016-game-of-the-year-final-vote FF15 ended up winning GotY here, but it did lose this poll to a Pokemon game before doing that so that'll question its ceiling in a contest. We also saw Uncharted 4 drop its match again Mario Kart 8 easily. If we go back one poll to the first overall GotY that year: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/6574-best-of-2016-game-of-the-year I wasn't impressed with Overwatch's win over Death Stranding. DOOM crushed INSIDE and Stardew Valley smacked up Destiny, definitely, but those matches might not mean that much. We'll learn more about Overwatch/DOOM/SV when they face Xenoblade/REmake 2/SMG2 this round. Meanwhile, Hollow Knight's exceeding expectations and is another game from 2017 that has been looking good in the meanwhile, however, so it's impressing me more than FF15 is failing me. --- O P E R A T I O N O U S T : Nominate SHEIK! https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/ssb/images/0/0d/Sheik-Victory3-SSB4.png ...
