Anti-Rencore

no particular order, but games, series, and genres/styles (see notes) that i severely dislike for one reason or another. i'm unlikely to enjoy games similar to them either but i try to reserve judgment until i've actually played stuff because for some reason i have an unbridled need to try touching fire. i dunno, every fire deserves a chance not to burn me or something

does not necessarily represent itself since sotn is fine, but more a representation of my "hipster tendency" of finding little good in games that have big reputations regardless of the game's size or scope, sometimes before i am even made aware of said reputations (several games on this list actually fall into this category!)
representative of this whole series as well as the stereotypically 'anime' writing associated with it
representative of this whole series as well as post-apocalyptic settings in general (though there are plenty of exceptions)
representative of jrpgs with atb systems except for chrono trigger
representative of this whole series
represents itself as well as indie 'soulslikes', indie 'metroidvanias', and modern grimdark worlds in general
representative of most 3d zelda, with this being used as its posterboy because i just straight-up dislike this one more than most of its peers
representative of this whole series

pretentious pseudo-review below vvv

representative of itself as well as sequels that shit on their original games in general
representative of this whole series
representative of itself and survival/crafting games besides i guess minecraft. this game in particular is probably fine but i've tried getting into it like 7 or 8 times and have never had fun once
representative of itself and just about anything mother/earthbound-inspired in general
representative of itself as well as recent animesque jrpgs in general
