I am a Hater Who Doesn't Really HATE Anything But Dislikes The Golden Age Quite A Bit.
I have a general dislike for retro games COMPLETELY because of number 1. Also, people that seem to think old games are "glorious amazing perfect games"
If we just accepted the impact they had and admired them as HISTORY I wouldn't have a problem. But then someone has to go and say the original GoldenEye is better than any shooter ever made.
And although I never hate out of need to be on the bandwagon, I OFTEN hate games the bandwagon does, but for other reasons.

I am the "Golden age hater" for sure. New games give me aids. I installed fucking battlefield 3 on my pc. So then an update comes for origin and it stopped working. And now it won't reinstall. Absolutely fucking useless. An update breaks the program completely? Retarded.
Heroes 6. 15 minutes into my session, "Conflux" (their shit online thing) decides I've disconnected from the internet and that the game will then go back to the main menu. But this does not happen and instead the game freezes so completely that keyboard commands are not picked up. Wow I wonder how often this will happen and that the game will freeze up so that I have to shut down my PC? Awesome prospect!

I'm the person who hates games he's played and doesn't like, I can't pass judgement on a game I haven't played...so the hypocritical hater (see what I did there?) 
I'm pretty much a troll hater. I hate rpgs and games that resemble anime style. In all honesty, though, I just think I'm picky with what I choose to play.
I thought this was going to be a fun game with maybe some introspection going on, but instead everyone's trying to be clever and mock everyone else in some underhanded way. Like a spawning pool for the internet at large :\
Actually responding to the question, though, I'd definitely be a 3: there's something iffy about a game that many people have played and liked. That must mean it's bad, because everyone but me is stupid. It's like some biased equation... "if X number of people have played Y game, times those who really liked it, etc. etc"... ultimately coming out to me deciding (without having played the game) that it is rubbish.
Mix in a bit of #1, as the immediate newness of the thing only provides more cause for a knee-jerk response. I've been compared to the old man sitting on a park bench complaining about the newness of new things and how it's not the same.

OT: Probably 5. Towards shonen noticeably.
Bro I'll come at you aiming down the sights of an underpowered gun that I can only hold six clips for while not being able to stand in the open and having to suck my thumb behind cover to get better when you shoot me with one of your many fun, powerful guns that mean you can stand up to hoards of enemies while you run at 40 miles an......Where was I going with this again?ElPatron said:
OT: I'm a cynical snob. FUN IS SUBORDINATE TO ART!!! Just kidding, neither should have to be sacrificed for the other.
how about the hater that can give legit reasons on why he hates and can back it up with examples?
