==Games that can be used to troll /tg/==
* Most other MMORPGs. [[World of Warcraft]], as the most successful to date, is especially effective. Special points to [[Star Wars: The Old Republic]] for being a massive disappointment for a popular franchise. 
* JRPGs, for often recycling the same plots over and over and having identical structure. Along with of course cringy bad character designs in some cases. 
** Seriously, just play Dragon Quest, Chrono Trigger or Final Fantasy Whatever and you have basically played 95% of JRPGs. 
* Any of the modern Final Fantasy games, [[Games Workshop|which somehow keep getting sequels despite being financial failures]]. [[This Guy|Some fa/tg/uys]] have a fondness for the early ones, mostly because [[Troll|the first one rips off D&D pretty squarely]].
* [[Skyrim]], a popular well liked meme game that /v/ contrarians and neckbeards with nostalgia goggles will say is shit. Same goes for [[The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion|Oblivion]], [[Fallout]] 3 and 4, and any future Bethesda RPGs.  
* <s>Mentioning the attention Warhammer 40k games have gotten compared to Warhammer Fantasy is a sore spot for Fantasy fans.</s> With the failure that is [[Dawn of War III]] and recent success of [[Total War: WARHAMMER]] and [[Vermintide]], you could say the tables have turned. Actually DoW3 by itself is enough for trolling anyway.
* Sonic The Hedgehog. The fans are everywhere, and the butthurt is unfathomable. 
* Nintendo games have ultra-dedicated fanbases, and also hardcore haters, except for series like Metroid, Zelda, Mother, or Kid Icarus which are generally respected. Mentioning Pokemon in a positive light or stating the controller of "the best" console they released is a sex toy may cause an internet fight. 
* Games with bad random number generators. Even highly approved of games like Mordheim: City Of The Damned will cause a shitstorm when someone is reminded that a supposed 95% chance to hit can result in four consecutive misses.
* No Man's Sky - such a huge waste of potential, although it got somewhat better with patches. Bringing this game up is a good troll move on /v/ as well, but everything's a good troll move on /v/.
* [[Horizon Zero Dawn]] - A beautiful looking game with shitty plot and characters, like almost every other game these days! But more seriously it's an Action RPG with [[Awesome|Robot Dinosaurs]] and a [[SJW|weirdly political story]], and it's sequel Forbidden West amplifies both it's good and bad points while also making the game kind of boring. Unlikely to cause much a stir on /tg/ by mentioning but /v/ will start arguing as usual.
* [[Cyberpunk 2077]] - people expected Witcher 3 on steroids, got an (initially) semi-playable beta version. Check the page for more details.
* [[Blizzard]]. JUST. [[Blizzard]]. <s>(''ACTIVISION'' Blizzard now, fuckers! The shit train only goes downhill from here!)</s> [Not so fast! Big Daddy Micro$oft bought it out, stay tuned for further developments!]

Games that are universally loathed, so you'll probably have to put in some work if you want to troll with:
* Unlike the previous Bethesda RPGs Fallout 76 is actually bad.  So if you want to troll people you'll have to pretend to like it.  Although, it's so objectively terrible your bait will most likely seem too obvious. 
* [[Bioware | Anthem]].
** Almost all "Games as a Service" games released in the wake of Destiny have a similar, if lesser, level of disdain; it's just that Fallout 76 and Anthem were so garbage on release, and had such a CRPG pedigree, that the trolling mines were quickly completely depleted.
* Reminding [[Shadowrun]] fans of the terrible Shadowrun FPS is not going to earn you any goodwill. 
* [[Evony]]
