The Enclave is an awesome set of villains.

I don't really get the Master's appeal other than he redeems himself.
I always thought that the best thing about The Master, is that he's not wrong. He's found a way to genuinely help the people of the Wasteland survive better, and wants to help people unite under one banner.

If you forget about future installments, where we know that the NCR arises and civilizes the West, from the time of Fallout 1, we had no reason to believe the world would get any better. The Master by all means, in the context of the game, is the best hope for the wasteland. Had his plan not had the fatal flaw of Supermutants not being able to breed, I'd think siding with him would almost certainly be the right choice, yet at the same time because they force people to become Supermutants, somehow it seems uncomfortable siding with them.

The Enclave are a fun villain(In Fallout 2 anyway), but that's all they are. There is next to no debate over politics. They want to wipe out everyone who doesn't fit there narrow definition of human, that's kinda unambiguously evil.
 
I really wanna bang Jamie Lee Curtis... like right now.
Again, I don't see how that'd be all that unpopular. She's still damn good looking.

Bioware is a shit studio ever since the beginning.
ToEE is better than the offline mmo Neverwinter Nights.
Everything Naughty Dog makes except Crash AND Jak and Daxter is an overrated piece of shit that does nothing to progress gaming.
Morrowind is the only good Bethesda game.
Freedom will always lead to chaos.
Xenonauts is poor man's X-Com.
RPGs are more than just C&C dialogue and Good Stories.
Respect and Peace matter more than Freedom.
"Art" is just a word that hipsters use to describe their shit taste.
Mankind will never progress as a society if we continue to act like tribalistic animals.
NormalPeople should'nt be allowed to vote.
All dead threads on NMA should be revived.

On behalf of jack and Daxter, fuck you.

The one with all the copy pasted dialogue and I dialogue system that feels like a Wikipedia article. It created a wierd disconnect between me and the game world. there are no "characters" in morrowind. For the most part characters speak in lorebook and info dump. As a result the game feels, like all of bethesdas games, like a kind of purgatory except this one is a more intense lonely claustrophobic purgatory than any of their other games. The few characters with some faint semblance of a quirk or personality just make the game world feel even more strange and off.

Black Version 2 is the best Pokemon game.

Plants are biologically superior to all animals including humans.

Gladiator is an overrated movie.
 
What about fungi?

Fungus is heterotrophic and therefore largely dependent on autotrophic organisms like plants to get energy. While they will likely fare better than animals in the long run, they are ultimately still beholdent to the almighty chlorophyll gods.
 
Ohhj boy, gonna get shit for this;

Fallout 4 isn't a bad game, just a bad Fallout game.
Dragon Ball GT isn't that bad, neither are the movies.
Tom Green may be one of the most underrated Geniuses of our time (or a complete idiot).
Sex is overrated (but bjs are cool).

I still have hope for Bethesda...
 
Don't even know if it's unpopular, but Dragon Ball Super is good.

Final Fantasy 10 is one of the worst entries in the series.
 
Tom Green may be one of the most underrated Geniuses of our time (or a complete idiot).

I'm still undecided on that as well, but regardless of intention, the Tom Green Show was one of the greatest sociological documentaries ever created. A brilliant study in what happens when you completely disregard human social norms.
 
As far as weapon durability goes, whilst I've not yet played FO 3/4, new vegas etc. Just 1,2 and tactics, I am aware that where weapon durability is introduced, it is it seems, ubiquitous regardless of the type of weapon. That to me is stupid. It is one thing for a firearm to break, but the likes of a lead pipe/iron bar 'breaking' is another matter. Its a metal bar, you hit people with it, it doesn't HAVE working parts to break. Why should one ever need to service a lead pipe? at most, one could just melt it down and recast another lead bar. Or if it gets a bit bent, then beat it back into shape. Nothing special required about that.

And it isn't as if that kind of thing needs anything special, I've used enough in the way of molten lead baths for heating crucibles for electrolysis based stuff to know that you don't need any heat that couldn't be obtained from the likes of a wood fire (read in FO world, a camp fire) to melt Pb, or for an iron pipe, one could just whack a rock with it to straighten out any dents. SERVICING requirements, or it actually degenerating until the point of unusability is quite ridiculous. Its a metal bar, its heavy, you hit people/critters with it and THEY break, the metal bar doesn't. It isn't a high-tech laser rifle with focusing optics that need to be in alignment, kept clean, circuitry that must be free of corrosion, shorts etc. Its a fucking lead pipe thats used to crack skulls and kneecap people who are inconveniently alive. Not technology.
