Annoyingly bad games

[Benny The Miraj]

Unpopular opinion but I always found Sonic to be really unintuitive. It's probably not bad but the game itself doesn't teach you its radically different take on platforming as well as, say, Donkey Kong Country or Yoshi's Island.

Now that that's out of the way, I have to say that I've really never liked... err... *gulp* Mario. *Holds up flame shield*

I've played so many Mario games, but it feels like they all have the same problems: bland, clunky generic gameplay with slippery controls, primitive and unimaginative bossfights that lack satisfaction of beating, level design that's somewhat forgettable and confusing, music that annoys me greatly, among other things. But, also going out on a limb, I hate that disdaining Mario is like a grave, mortal sin, like someone cannot say they don't like Mario without being flamed or accused of bias or having a bunch of people come in and defend the game to make the person's opinion feel worthless and alone. I mean I know people love these games and they're not bad, but every time I try one I'm faced with great disappointment. ...Please don't hate me.
