Its an RTS.
You are hating an RTS game for being an RTS. Are you even sure that you are playing the right genre?
If you still think your complaint is valid then what do you think about this complaint?
"Dragon age 2 sucked because it did not have gun and was the same level up, collect equipment, hire party member bullshit that bioware releases."
Well, you've got to cut them some slack on BC2's story. It's the second story they ever made (Third if you count Mirror's Edge, but that was written by Rhianna Pratchett). It was alright, but not as good as BC1's. I have to just plain disagree with you on the multiplayer though. I felt it was better than BC1's in just about every way. I felt I could see much farther in BC2, for example. I never sniped in the first one because there was mist everywherepspman45 said:
Plus, DICE gets huge developer points for what they're doing with BF3.
On topic, I don't really have a least favorite developer. It's not something that I think about when I dislike a game.
EDIT: ....really escapist? I see what your plan was, to get us used to annoying captchas, then make us watch advertisements to get the right to post. That's going too far.
Valve. I was playing TF2 yesterday and got a random drop that can only be accessed if I go to the store. What the fuck guys? If I wanted to buy my weapons I wouldn't need random drops.
After that it would be any company who releases buggy games and treats pre-orderers as beta testers.

Have you play the SP yet? Please tell me if you did. Cause in the Story, you can make two decision on who to help. Like save a human colony, or destory it due to them being infected by zerg. Why have this choice if it isn't going to play out in the next game? Or use points you get to buy a few different units. So it has a few "RPG" elment in choice making. Next time you try to quote me , do your reseacher.Vibhor said:
Konami would be one. They made some great games back in the SNES days, but Pro Evo hasn't moved on (despite Evolution being in the name), and I'd say the same for MGS as well. Apart from that and Silent Hill, I'm hard-pressed to actually name any games they've developed over the last few years.
Valve for the hats thing, and basically becoming more money hungry.
Bioware for turning Dragon Age into Mass Effect: Medieval Edition.
Obsidian for having more bugs than a bug farm.
Lionhead for everything Fable related.
I will put in a dev team I LOVE as well. CD Projekt RED. I got ALL THAT STUFF in my The Witcher 2 for $50? cool deal. Thanks for the game guide and Soundtrack!

Square is starting to get on my nerves. We've been waiting how long for Versus? How about having to sit through a million and one prequels to Kingdom Hearts 3? (By which point, I assume Sora's going to take one look at all the crap he has to set right and just say "Screw this!")
They really need to prioritize. I liked XIII, but I'm really not up for a sequel to that yet. I own the DS remake of FFIV, and I'm happier with that then a PSP remake. Just give the audience what we've been waiting since 2006 for...
...Learn from DNF.

Konami. the way they're handling the Silent Hill franchise is just insufferable. Sure, Shattered memories was a step forward for the franchise after two awfully mediocre games but the Silent Hill collection without 1 and 4 and re-worked VO?! screw that! Oh and they just announced a freakin' multiplayer spinoff, christ how I hate them so much. *crosses fingers for Downpour*
Crytek. Don't get me wrong, I love the Crysis series. It's just their arrogant and snobby attitude that gets to me.

I have to say Trion. I play WoW and tried rift unbiasedly, (Yes I did, shut up) and honestly while I liked and It had some interesting Ideas, It was too close to WoW for me to me consider switching, and not in an MMO way in almost everyway. The way they openly declared they are trying to take down WoW and the smug way the claimed they're the people who took 600,000 people away from WoW was just plain annoying.
Really its Capcom for me. I love their games, I have Resident evil 5 Gold edition. I plan on getting the new Devil May Cry, and Dead Rising, and most of the stuff they have coming out looks interesting. But sadly the dlc they do sucks. Mainly because the dlc is on the disc or they charge money for useless costumes.
This is my choice too, I still havent gotten over how they treated us regarding Vesperia.Onyx Oblivion said:
My 2nd choice would be Bilzzard because they, like Nintendo think because they have a few hits on their hands they can get away with murder and just rehash the same game over and over with just superficial improvments. And the whole "when its ready" thing is bull, it doesnt take several years to come out with 1/3 of a game I dont care how much "tweaking and balancing" you do to the damn multiplayer.
publishers seem to rub me wrong more then developers, but that isn't what we are hear about, now is it?
Obsidian is on the list. I know they make great games, but if they would only spend the extra month to test thier games before releasing them to the masses they would be truely great. And their mistakes aren't "well gee, who would talk to the guy who teaches you how to catch a pokemon and then fly to cinnabar Island" Glitches that are just absurd, but stuff like patching a game and the patch eats all the saves players had. That would take five minutes worth of playtesting to figure out.
Valve, there is a such thing as taking to long on a game. Releasing a game that is half good and can be fixed with free dlc is better then never releasing a game at all. Also, Valve fanboys pestering for episode 3, YOU ARE NOT HELPING. You are doing the same thing that happened to Valve during the production of Half Life 2. You are setting your expectations too high. Seriously, just forget about Half Life for a few years. It worked for Starcraft 2 and Duke Nukem Forever.
Nintendo, You keep talking about innovation, but when was the last time you made a new franchise? I can only play the same Zelda game being released under a different name so much.
Square Enix, Final Fantasy 7 was great, but can we please go back to the faceless characters. That's what I liked most about the first one (besides the class system), You could will in the characters with the personality you felt most appropriate. WIth you telling us how the characters act it stops becoming an RPG and just an adventure.

I'm gonna get some hate for this, but I really can't stand Bethesda. I try to like their games, I really do. RPGs are my favorite genre of game. But the NPCs always kill the immersion I get from their games. I don't care how good the combat is or how refined their skill system is, the creepy faces of the random people I talk to always break me out of my gaming mood. That and its really annoying to hear random person A talk with his clone random person B about the store that his other clone random person C runs. Maybe if they take on Bioware's approach to character design I'll forgive them.
Another is the bastards behind Metroid: Other M (my brain refuses to remember them for the massive murder they did to that series). Seriously, you have to be pretty damn incompetent to ruin a series that is already so amazingly good and has the ground work already laid out for you. Its proof that almost all Nintendo protagonists shouldn't talk.

Well, Nintendo DO innovate, they just only do it with their consoles for some reason. Still, that's better than not innovating at all.ultratog1028 said:
It also makes me lol that so many gamers go "WE DEMAND INNOVATION!" and bash non-innovative games, before immediately bashing the Wii, WiiU and Kinect for not being exactly the same as what works. Derp, hypocrisy.
