Sonic is the obvious one. Spyro kinda does too, but being fair, they have Skylanders now, so that's not entirely against them.

Scooby Doo. People will say the older series are better (except for any series that included Scrappy Doo) than newer series, like Mystery Inc (which I peronally hated) and Be Cool. The latter two actually changed up the old Scooby Doo formula and had more creative scenarios than the first gen.
Be Cool even gave all the characters better personalities, which was a desperately-needed change. But people complain bitterly about the art style and refuse to see any good in it.

Sonic fans have more reason to be genwunners than Pokémon fans, though. The Classic Sonic games play way differently from modern Sonic, even the modern 2D games. Pokémon's formula is the same for every mainline game except Sun and Moon throwing out staples like Gyms for the new trial system.

If Game Freak tried making a "Pokémon Mania" like Sonic, it'd just be the same game as what we usually get, while Classic Sonic is different enough that recapturing it makes a noticeably different game that what has been coming out in the Sonic franchise lately.

MM1 is really unpolished compared to 2 and beyond regarding its engine, though I think the level design is still good. If you're talking about Megaman Classic as a whole compared to the spinoffs, that's not really being Genwun because the spinoffs are all just so different, some even change genres like BN being an RPG. It'd be like calling a Classicvania fan a genwunner for not liking what IGA did to the series with SOTN, they're basically different series when it comes to gameplay.

>>29394651
Castlevaina got it the worst.
There are people who refuse to believe anything past Super is good. I prefer the DS trilogy but the GBA titles were pretty nice too (Despite circle of the moon being...weird.) And SoTN has classic sounds and hard challenges. Then the series died off after konami shot themselves in the foot.

I can't wait for bloodstained.

To be fair, Dark Souls 2 took a few steps back from Dark Souls. Still fun but had a bit missing. Can't really talk about Dark Souls 3 since I haven't played it.

Tbh, the Mega Man, Mega Man X, Mega Man Zero and Mega Man ZX series were all top notch and Battle Network shouldn't be underestimated either. So there aren't really any times when Mega Man was truly weak, there are weak games sure but no weak time periods. Really Legends may have been the only weak point and even then that was around the same time as Mega Man X and Mega Man Zero.

Most things do, it might not be the very first but usually is something big changes in the series. Like Zelda has Ocarina of time that was the first 3D which set the stage for the newer games so it's the "best" or how World of Warcraft is amazing to some since it revolutionized MMOs and Warcraft in general but when you add an expansion to it somehow it sucks.

There's always a point in everything that has "genwunners" or a similar group.

Probably not. Mega Man X is way better than the Classic series and the Zero series is what many fans would consider the pinnacle.

Mega Man was a consistently good and getting better franchise until X6 and beyond.
>>
>>29396234
>Mega Man X is way better

If you just mean the first few games, that's a respectable opinion to have, but Megaman Classic stayed consistent in quality for the most part while X gets gradually worse until it becomes total garbage with X7 and X8. Even if X1-X3 are great, I'd give Megaman Classic a higher overall rating for not having any real bad mainline games except Megaman &Bass, holy shit fuck that game, maybe it was because I played as Megaman but the level design is bullshit and some of the bosses like the jet midboss in King's stage give me PTSD.

The physics in Smash 4 are a lot worse than Melee. I'm a casual, I'm not technical enough to wavedash or L-cancel my moves, and Melee is more fun for casual play because of its physics compared to Brawl or Smash 4. Project M is also great for casual play, but I think part of it is the alt costumes and classic stages like Saffron City, not just the physics. And Wario, Project M Wario should be the canon Wario.

No that's just being correct, you can even pinpoint what caused it. Insomniac stopped making the games and the publisher that bought it afterwards underpaid/staffed and cut production time of the third parties producing the games because 'lol it'll sell anyway'.

Experience gives you progression and a benefit from fighting. Imagine if Pokémon didn't have experience, and every Pokémon had the same stats and moves they would have at Level 5 no matter what. Also imagine that just fighting the few mandatory trainers in the storyline like Gym Leaders gave you more money than you would ever need in your playthrough. Wouldn't you run from any wild battle you didn't intend to use Pokéballs in and avoid trainers like the plague? Does that seem like good game design?

The genwunner term originated from transformers.

Daggit, forgot that one. Yeah, that one is for certain dominant in that fanbase. I've never known the Power Rangers fanbase well enough to tell. As far as I know, the only part of it that is similar to genwunners is the matter that the original is only one most people know. They don't pretend to still like it to my knowledge. You either fell out and never came back immediately after the first season, or you fell out at a later point. The true genwunner for PR is In Space. It is unquestionably considered the pinnacle of the entire series and nothing has ever matched or surpassed it. There are later series that are good, but they never beat it.

Go read power rangers facebook comment section. Aside from the mandatory autist sperging about how redpilled he is about super sentai you always find the normalfag saying MMPR is the best/the only that counts/etc.

>They don't pretend to still like it to my knowledge

Time Force and RPM are often also claimed as the best. And even then, people who love In Space and have it as their favorite acnlowledge and like later seasons.

Oblivion and Skyrim have different problems.

The first butchered a ton of lore and failed to recapture the feel Morrowind had by turning Cyroldiil into AverageFantasySettingLand but was otherwise a competent RPG, leveling system aside.

Skyrim in my opinion recaptured the feeling an Elder Scrolls game should have in terms of setting but is one of the most entry-level, casual and shallow RPGs I've ever played.

Which one you dislike less is a matter of personal preference.

every fanchise has a set of "genwunners", for how much games have changed on many cases (see: sequelities: zelda, according to egoraptor). But none are as REMARKED as pokemon, since the games literally call it "generation 1" and is not a set of changes that slowly go through each incarnation of a game, like zelda or final fantasy.

pokemon has them numbered, so you can just point your finger to one and say: "LOOK, THIS GEN WAS BETTER, ITS THE SAME BUT BETTER".

Although, the most similar case would be final fantasy VII vs XIII. where everyone who likes VII despises XIII and some just dont care.

I mean, there's a reason why "new super mario bros", and stuff like "NES collection" are still a thing.

That´s, at most, pandering to the feeling of playing Gen 1, not to Gen 1 directly. So if you were an actual fan you´d get something new and if you were a Gen 1 fan you´d relive the old experience.

Then again, GF fails to get what most media companies also fail to get, the sucess of the first iteration is not because something inherent to it, it´s because it was the first and there wasnt anything like it that was popular at the time.
Swap any gen mons with gen 1 mons and the result would be the exact same with the only difference being "muh original 100/135/107..." instead of 151.

Are you not aware that Dark Souls was not the first Souls game? I'm guessing not.

Yeah, pretty much. And I will stand by s4 being the best season of the series. It's espically ironic considering how much most fans don't give two shits about the previous generations.

Started with that one too. It was great. Thing is? Very unpolished. DS1 was generally an improvement in a gameplay and worldbuilding sense.

World of Warcraft has this badly. People who think 'x expansion' is objectively the best. There's even fans that's that complain WoW ruined the Warcraft series.

This honestly. I feel like it would flow and make more sense if Ash was Sun or Chicken-chan this time around but nope, gotta have Ash because he's grandfather'd in there and would "confuse" to crotch dumplings

I mean, it did in a way. The writing has really gone downhill. If we ever get a new Warcraft game odds are that it's gonna be really bad in terms of storyline.

And there always gonna be people who bring Doraemon. Doraemon is not about traveling the word and having a goal, it make absolutely no sense for Ash to still be 10.

>DS1 was generally an improvement in a gameplay and worldbuilding sense.

I did not say otherwise. In fact, I think every game has made major improvements in one way or another.

DS1 improved the kombat and had a bigass well made interconnected world that's a rarity in 3d games. It also greatly improved the summon system.

DS2 wasn't interconnected but was about as nonlinear as a Souls game could get, you didn't even have to beat the 4 lords to beat the game. There was also the new estus system, teleporting from the get-go, omnirolling, a better smithing system, and a ton of other small changes that improved gameplay immensely. Admittedly those steps forward came with a few steps back, but I can deal with janky animations for the sake of not waiting half an hour for a friend to get on the same node when I'm trying to co-op.

DS3 has a character creator almost on par with BB's and a healthy mix of good gameplay mechanics from the previous games (like DS2's omnirolling but with DS1's roll attack weapon aiming) in a world that I absolutely cannot care about. I think part of the reason behind that is DS3's linearity, in DeS, DS1, and DS2 you generally have to do a few things at the start of the game but once you get those things out of the way you can do just about whatever you want. DS3 doesn't give you a real choice of where to go until the swamp and even then you have to do the CotD before you can go to Irithyll so the choice is already kind of made for you. Even if you kill the dancer early the untended graves are your only subsequent option because you can't enter the Archives until you've killed 3 LoCs.

If you can't see what's wrong with making a spinoff where all the characters are humans in high school, or how it's a notable change in style that would be unwelcome to a lot of people, I don't think an argument would get anywhere anyway, so I'll agree to end the conversation.

I know the term comes from transformers, but does it really apply?

Every new transformers property has been a reboot, completely different from the last, and obviously not going to cater to everyone's taste. While pokemon improves on the groundwork laid by the last gen while not changing things too drastically.

I can understand why someone might hate the other shows after TF G1, but hating the later Pokemon games just for the mons is fucking stupid because the older mons are still there.

>I know the term comes from transformers, but does it really apply?
If they created it, then it unarguably applies.
You might argue the pokemon version of it doesnt apply, but not the original.

> hating the later Pokemon games just for the mons is fucking stupid because the older mons are still there
That´d imply nostalgiafags actually do give a shit about the content of the pokemon franchise. It´s not the case, it´s just to be trendy.

Someone else played this?

I have seen a huge part of the fanbase loving the 7.6 update and hating mostly anything past 8.0, but others think that 8.7 ruined it.

I barely know about the most recent updates, because I stopped about 8 years ago when my friends got bored of it.

And tried to get back just for nostalgia in 2012, got bored very quickly, fucking bots.

Does Evangelion have genwunners? As an Eva fan, I'm disappointed in the second Rebuild movie and compare it unfavorably to the original series, so I can imagine that there must be Neon Genesis purists out there who bash any sort of spinoff or reboot.
