Uncharted is underrated? You're kidding me, right? Also, Yuri is best girl.


I've heard a lot of people trashing it saying it was boring and too long. I liked the cinematic qualities and the Tomb Raider gameplay. I don't think it gets enough credit where I'm from.

DDLC is definitely overrated. It's nominated for so many awards despite over half of it's most creative ideas being done better by either Undertale or Stanley Parable. Also the first 80% of the game before any of the interesting stuff happens is a cliche-filled slog that's a chore to get through if you actually want to read it. I know it being cliche's kind of the point but it just goes on too long. Like if this game was a ten episode anime, eight of those ten episodes would be boring, boring *BORING* generic saccharine harem anime.

Doom is one ofnthe most highly praised and cited PC games of all time, often credited with modernising the FPS genre as a whole. If you think that is 'underrated' then you are just not satisfied that people dont like the gane as much as you do.

Slint is highly praised and credited with creating the 90's, rock-wise, yet they are not that popular nowadays and no one outside some hipster circles says yeah dude, play some Slint! The same goes for Doom. It's kind of dead now, compared to the 90's let's say or compared to other FPS's people tend to play. The last year's release helped, I admit that.

And I am just nostalgic about it, I don't really like in any special way to be honest.

I guess we could say it's 'underpopular' instead of underrated, because it is considered a classic like you said. But that's the meaning I thought was implied in this thread when I agreed with cpldingo.

You cant expect a game that is 2 and a half decades old to be as consistently popular as it was upon release, but considering its age, you would be hard pressed to find a 'classic' from that era that is as popular as doom, even pokemon was released 3 years later.

Basically Doom is not underrated, people don't play Goldeneye 64 anymore either, but you would never in a million years say that was 'underrated' would you? It was the first video game to win a BAFTA for Christ sake. There are plenty good 90s games that don't get the praise they deserve, but doom is not one of them.

Not to derail but uh...

DOOM had a new version made in 2016. It sold really well and got a lot of good scores.

So even people who're young would have exposure to the franchise.

I dunno? I guess when I think of underrated, I think of something that is good in quality but didn't get many sales or much news buzz. Every game in the DOOM series has had both.

Speaking of Doom and so on, the new Wolfenstein honestly didn't live up to the hype I had for it. This is coming from the person who loved TNO and played the other Wolfenstein games like Enemy Territory constantly. There were story points that felt forcefully added in that were either completely forgotten or forgotten long enough to somehow make them relevant later in the game. Also, if I have to hear "my brothers and sisters" one more time... I don't know, but it's honestly annoying.

Now for underrated, the Resistance series was good (in my opinion). Admittedly, the sequels weren't as great as Fall of Man, but I enjoyed the series. It's a shame it hasn't gained the attention other series had, and kind of faltered off into the distance.

Civ 5 is overrated, especially when compared to Civ 6. The DLC for 5 is what made it an even passable game. In Civ 6 you get everything in Civ 5 off the bat without DLC.

Civ 4 is oddly underrated and I actually like it over Civ 6. Though Civ 6 for me is the perfect mold of tactics and strategy. Civ 4 is just very deep I can see why it can be offputting apart from the dated graphics. Some things are just ridiculous like vassel states. Not only will they help with war but they automatically vote for you in a diplomatic victory. The fact Wonders go obsolete also bugs me. However it's probably the deepest one when it comes to AI and how you can balance some things diplomacy wise. Especially religion and how some AIs won't even attack you if they're friendly with you. Edit: Plus while it takes a while to unlearn the sprawl and crawl battle tactics of Civ 5, Civ 4's doom stacks are far more classic and kinda what I prefer.
