>>56085167Gen 5 to be fair, has some of the most annoying fanboys of any generation.
People can seemingly not take an ounce of criticism of these games and any time you do, they usually deflect to other generations (especially 1)
They try to justify their behavior by claiming the games were widely hated when that is simply not the case. All it takes is a few clicks to Meta-critic to see positive reviews from critics and fans. These aren't retroactive, go on Wayback Machine and see the reviews from 2011, and they are nearly the same.
It can be annoying to constantly be told about how this was the godliest creation and everything after is garbage, and ironically, that's exactly what genwunners said and got crucified for. Gen 1 hate ramped up as a result.
This is called hype backlash.
I like Gen 5 well enough, but man, it's just not fun to talk with these overly defensive fanboys
