1. Nice (your opinions)opinions in bold “Mario games are easy”
well some of them are, just the last level is insane
“Super Mario Galaxy 2 is too easy”
don't remember it being super easy
“This game is too easy so it sucks” mentality
to anyone who says this: stop
“Graphics and story are more important than actual gameplay” mentality
In some cases the story can actually be a bigger focus than the gameplay (e.g. most early RPGs) but IMO as long as graphics are functional and look OK it's fine.
“Everything considered good is overrated” mentality
*cough cough* sms and mario games *cough cough*
Also similar to the 3rd one:
“We need to make all our games easy! Nobody buys a game that's too hard!”
2. If that's the case, I don't think they understand the appeal of Dark Souls and Cuphead (I haven't played either, but the difficulty is one of the selling points and it worked).

YEP. AND NOW LET'S STOP TALKING ABOUT NONSENSE BEFORE WE GET TOLD TO STOP!AND NOW YOU KNOWActually Night by Elie Wiessel predates that by 29 years.Hoe to make a WWII novel:
1. Make the protagonists Jewish. (Bonus points for having the star of David appear in the novel)
2. make the protagonists get kidnapped or targeted by the Nazis.
3. make the protagonists escape the Nazis somehow.
4. Make sure the novel ends in the closing days of WWII.
The original for that cliche was the book Number the Stars (I think), which is one of my favorite books.
See? You learn something new everyday, folks. I didn't know that.

“Most of Nintendo games, particularly ones in the most popular franchises, are for kids”
“There's no difference between ”best“ and ”favourite“”
“Math is hard and boring”
“The originals are always better”
“Anyone who plays video games, reads comics or watches cartoons is immature”
“1-vs-3 minigames in Mario Party are terrible because they're unbalanced” This is a personal one that bothers me
I give credit to @Spycapt64 who made a post very similar to this

Person wants a companion animal, suddenly an abused animal appears! Person feels a strong bond with them, but oh no, they can’t have them! Suddenly the animal gets hurt somehow, and the person saves them! Somehow they are mine now? OwO everything is fine
Tbh I like this storyline, but it gets overused

I used to be a hero like you/in the original but the author wanted some angst so I'm on the bad guys side now and really pessimistic. Don't worry, there's a 60% chance I'll be redeemed and go back to the heroes side.

Random underling betrays he original villain and takes his power to fulfill his own desires.
It can be good and interesting if done well. See Super Paper Mario.
