Marvel Ultimate Alliance is the best capeshit game ever made.

I genuinely like games more if I can play as a girl. This dates all the way back to GoldenEye in the late 90s, when I would pick Natalya if I wasn't lucky enough to get Oddjob. Playing as Peach in SMB2 because her float mechanic was fun also didn't help.

>>731687703
I want more games with sexy woman, big stompy robots and 80s roided up dudes.

I kinda like gaming on console more than pc even if a game performs better on pc. It just feels more natural. Computers just feel like they were made for work and there are too many distractions.

I play the remaster of DS1 because it runs at 60 without ladder issues and a lot of people still play it so I can do multiplayer stuff for covenants. I’d tell someone to buy the remaster instead of the original because of that and you can restore the visuals with mods anyway. Unless you’re on PlayStation but they have way less cheaters so it’s a small price to pay.

>>731687703
The main reason why games in general have declined is because of the economic decline of the global order. Look at what happened to Japanese anime after the 80s when the market crashed

Ok but do you beat off to the women

Playing any first person game without an FOV of 85 BADE MINIMUM is nauseating. Yes I only gained this mindset after playing PC games but it’s honestly such bigger improvement over 120+ FPS or 4K. I fucking hate how cramped console shooters feel with their shitty FOV, I tried playing the new Metroid Prime and that game had many other issues but I hated the FOV. Meanwhile Primehack let me change that and it looked great.

I think the games coming out today are generally really great and we dont appreciate how good it is. 60fps is just about the standard for new console games these days and they all run at high resolutions. Even AA games can look like AAA games now and that wasnt possible before and thats great. And every new game just adds to the ever growing collection of already existing games making the list of good games you can play longer and longer. Things are great for gamers. I played games all day today and had a great time.

I have zero interest in elder scrolls

Games in the mainstream have become less "games" and more "experiences" in the sense that using mechanics to overcome a challenge is secondary to making the player enter a particular mood. While this sucks for "gameplay is king" types, which includes me, it's the only way gaming would ever grow in popularity as it did since most don't want mentally intensive hobbies.

>>731688196

>>731687703
I hate crafting mechanics and will immediately stop playing any game that has them.

Dragon Ball is still the coolest shit ever and the only thing that came close to it from Japan was Bleach which was really fucking close but it had shitty games and the anime was horrible after Soul Society because of all the filler. Thousand Year Blood War is actually way more interesting than the Hueco Mundo Aizen Siege part of the story, even though the last stretch kinda fumbled everything hard. Oh but back to games, Dragon Ball Budokai Tenkaichi 3 is the only good arena fighter and I’d say it’s better than most regular fighters but I’m saying that while taking into account the collective whole of fighting.

>>731688376
You're just a dumbass niggerape.

>>731688281
Same. And Fallout. And GTA.

>>731688376
That's kinda weird. I hate roguelikes but if I end up playing one, I can at least do a run before I'm bored of the game forever.

>>731688086
PC with mods gives you all the characters from the console exclusives. It's abandonware so it should be easy to obtain on the web. Its modding community is very active and has tons if guides.

>>731687749
kotoha gaming on my lap while i do nothing and watch her :)

>>731688402
Tenkaichi sucks cock and I hate every one of its fans for killing the original Budokai which was vastly superior

i think most people on here are massive faggot tf2 refugees who actually suck at video games seeing how they complain about games like mordhau instead of getting good

People say games don’t age but I have to disagree because I played Mario 1 for the first time in years the other day and I was going so fast, my koopa shell I kicked into a hammer bro phased through it because its collision wasn’t rendered yet. I know this isn’t necessarily the game’s fault because of hardware limitations, but those limitations are a double edged sword because it could create some unique experiences but at the same time, it was very fucking annoying like with that. You can fix this with emulators and the games are way better like this, I even played Metroid and could finally fight Kraid, Ridley, and Mother Brain without the game slowing down to an absolute crawl.

>>731688404
It’s lazy game design fuck you

>>731687769
You can play it with Xenia.

>>731688468
Budokai had worse combo strings, was slower, and the only good game was 3. 1 was bad except for the story mode which was alright and then 2 is just bad with no redeeming qualities besides niche stuff. BT1 was worse than all of them but BT2 and BT3 are the best DBZ fighters and FighterZ is overrated.

>>731688376
Agreed. I prefer Skyrim's crafting system to Fallout 4s. I like hunting for ingredients and materials but i hate deciding where shit goes. Just do it for me.

I think the design of the Outer Worlds is not very conducive to the atmosphere the game is trying to present. The game wants to explore, take it all in, and think hard about unraveling the mystery. With only 22 minutes (not including the downtime for going from planet to planet), there's this pressure to just try to go as fast as possible. You see a diary entry on the wall, and instead of stopping and trying to visualize what happened and the implications, there's a pressure to quickly scan it for any relevant information, and if there's none, just quickly move on to the next thing. I understand that the passage of time is a huge gameplay element, but I feel like time should only meaningfully pass in space, and on land you'd have to use an item to skip forward to the desired time. This would have forced the player to think about how best to use their limited time on a given cycle, but once you were at a world, you could breathe easy and not feel rushed.

>>731687703
There is nothing worse in video games than loading screens that pretend to be gameplay. No, I don't want to hold forward while the character crawls through a crack in the wall, just go to a black screen for a few seconds.

I do not care for customization in video games. I mean literally not in the slightest. I pick the default outfit in fighting games, I spend zero time making a character in fallout and just go, and I listen to the default area music in runescape and not some playlist. I want to play what the devs envisioned and not have every game be a self-insert wacky doody fuck fest of a mess

I really will play anything if it looks fun but I won't talk about it

>>731687703
After exclusively playing video games on a PC for the past ~15 years (any console exclusive I just emulated where possible), I recently impulse bought a used DSi so I could replay stuff like TWEWY. I'd say it's the best handheld console ever and has the best library too. I really wish handhelds didn't die out because Nintendo struck gold with the clamshell design and it's sad to think we'll never see a major gaming company put out another quality console like this.

I basically did this in runescape yeah. Mainly because the default look is extremely notorious for what bots look like and I don't want my account banned because I decided to chop trees naked. Basically hit random and go

I just know the fact I like RPGs because I can explore different archetypes and even imagine personalities is strictly related to the fact that I was raised without a dad and still struggle on how to be a proper man. It's like since I was a child I was forced to identify traits and attempt to understand them so I can know if I need to adapt it or dischard it. If I need to accept it or reject it. I just want to be a man.

Waterpark Simulator was one of the biggest personal disappointments in years.

I can’t stand Monster Hunter. I like other action games, and even liked Lost Planet 2, but Monster Hunter just drains me. I don’t like the preparation, every time I try preparing for a monster it doesn’t even feel like I made much of a difference as I still get my 10-15 minute kill time anyway. Sometimes it’s like 20 minutes, I remember there was this fucking wyvern that ran away a billion times after half health. It’s more fun with friends I guess but I don’t like the progression at all, I actually got GU on Switch and most of my playtime was spent in the arena fighting random shit I downloaded from the quest board which was honestly more fun. No I didn’t play World Rise or Wilds, I heard those are casualized versions but I genuinely just thought the series wasn’t for me. Good thing Capcom makes other great series anyways.

I'm usually the person calling gatekeeping faggots losers and dweebs, especially the "popular bad, vague obscure bullshit le good" but in the case of gaming, this was 100% true. Gaming becoming vastly popular has definitely ruined it. And I'm not even talking about the gay ass /pol/ talking points about MUH WOKE MUH DEI...I just mean in general gaming is just so much worse. The average player is just so fucking dog shit and if you play anything online multiplayer: you are literally going to be foaming at the mouth because you WILL get the most brain dead retarded nigger on your team that can barely walk and breath at the same time. I'm genuinely this close to deleting anything and everything multiplayer related and just fucking off back to single player games.

And the shit that really boils my blood is that no matter where I go: 4chan, reddit, twitter, youtube comments, it's always some mouthbreathing nigger swearing up and down that the average player is much better today. And yet, every single time, no matter what game I'm playing, it's literal mouthbreathing niggers with single digit IQs on my team. Where are all these supposed good players? I do think that players have better tools/resources to be much better at the game. Internet connections are much better. Keyboard, mouses, even "pro controllers" so you had an advantage over regular controllers. Youtube/Streamer faggots literally telling you the best weapons, attachments, loadouts, etc without you ever needing to experiment or forget shit out for yourself. And yet, still nothing but nigger brain apes infesting online multiplayer games for the sole purpose of going quadruple negative and ruining your experience. It was never this bad back in the 00s or even the early 2010s. Gaming becoming popular just means more and more fucking retards shitting up everything.

Yeah you should because no matter what you do you will always get dogshit teammates who are the same rank as you because you're also dogshit and playing a 1v1 game would force you to confront your inadequacies, especially mentally, and maybe improve.
But you won't because you're a little pussy bitch

SaGa Frontier is a good one to start with. The remaster is great and restores cut content, or you can just emulate the original.
Red and Emelia are the beginner characters. I would personally recommend playing as blind as possible, you can save anywhere so feel free to experiment as much as you want.
And just remember you're not playing FF or DQ. If you do look anything up, it should probably be a character growth mechanics guide. One of the best parts of SF is having multiple races that all play and develop differently.

I think tower defense games where your blocks/tower placement is freeform and is meant to shape the enemy route are far better than normal tower defense games where it's just prefabbed locations/routes where you can place towers.

It's stupid but one thing I miss about my ps5 is that when I was done with my session, its literally just one button right there on the controller to shut everything down. On PC I have toggle through a bunch of menu to exit and shut down.
Also on console you generally game all day without really worrying about anything. But nowadays if I'm playing something intense, I have toggle to my task manager every 40 minutes to make sure some Win11 kikery doesn't start running the background and make my machine shit itself.

I think I'm tired of long games, and I suspect the idea that "games must be long" contributes to all the filler we see that has skyrocketed.

I think I'd prefer shorter games that are just solid throughout and only as long as they need to be, with some completely optional side stuff.
Chrono Trigger can be beaten in less than 20 hours if you want. Non-rpgs in far shorter time. Maybe we need more of that again.

Horizon Zero Dawn and Forbidden West have the best open world exploration I've ever seen.

justify that, those games are some of the most bland and worst offenders of trend-chasing design philosophy sony has ever published which is really saying something

i made a thread about it
>>731691278

competitive gaming is boring, reciting meta strats becomes stale extremely fast
the entire competitive industry, i believe, is driven solely by young men being insecure about their competence and seeking validation by being good at a video game
people don't actually enjoy them for the intrinsic experience of playing them

Well what exactly do you mean by "The Nintendo games"? That is pretty broad and covers damn near half of all console games ever made.

Do you mean anyone who likes any Nintendo game, or people who fan boy over Nintendo and only play Nintendo games?

I have thought this for a while. Whenever I played a 100 hour game my thoughts at the end are always "thank fuck that's over". But I can 100% an MMBN game in 40 hours and be hungry for more.

This also describes Dragon ball. Everything after Cell saga is shit.

Grinding in RPGs is good and fun. Level scaling is the enemy of fun. Being rewarded XP for completing a quest removes the grind and is the enemy of fun and should instead give items that make the grind faster.
AoE attacking trash mobs is the best friend of fun.

>>731692000
I strongly agree. If it wasn't for the fact I seldom play games released post 2015 I would had probably have said this.

>>731692276
Forced grind is the antithesis of fun and is why MMOs are shit.

I don’t hate woke games specifically because they might include gay characters, but because I know they are written and developed primarily by women who are by nature incompetent and lack passion. the game being dogshit is practically assured

>>731692091
20 hours is pretty long all things considered. When you look at gaming as a whole and not just RPGs most games were only meant to be played for an hour or two max per sitting, and fully finishing a game was rare, but if you did it was no more than 10ish hours

SEGA should sideline Sonic and focus more on Puyo. It's a series that can benefit from the spinoffs that sonic has like a VN like The Murder of Sonic or something else but they seem to like sticking it to just being a fun puzzle game (granted, Compile churning out a fuckton of spinoffs did badly in the long run but sometimes it came out good). The puyo team just seem to have more fun with it as well, even if the tetris games especially are pretty watered down.

NTA but i like putting an HDMI cable in so i can play stuff on the tv screen and it's great, especially with emulators when you can boost the resolution. Really good gaming experience.

Is this your cope for not being "good" at videogames? Is it really so difficult to accept you aren't good at something? I used to be a top level player in WoW arenas, Hearthstone and some lesses known games. Do you really think playing a game at the HIGHEST level with OTHER highest level players is not enjoyable??? xD

Some video fame are better than others

>>731692163
>justify your opinion
The games have the best open world exploration I've seen and experienced. The game engine is the same as Death Stranding, which creates beautiful environments, but you aren't stuck walking everywhere. You can rockclimb most surfaces, slide 20 feet at a time, fly on a (very slow) dinosaur, there are no invisible walls to the world so there is a ton of out of bounds exploration.

>>731692378
Mmm maybe women are actually better or even equally good at making games but what is "better" and "good to them is not the same thing that it is to you??? I am joking of course.

Give up on the idea of having video game friends. Even if you find someone who likes one of the games you play, odds are they aren’t going to like a lot of the other stuff you’re into, if any at all. It gets worse the larger your friend group becomes.

Final Fantasy 13-2 was a fantastic game and should be enjoyable to anyone who likes the Chrono games. There isn't a soul alive who can change my opinion

>>731692127
You may be onto something...

>>731692670
>Give up on the idea of having video game friends
Those were my only friends all my life and precisely why I have maybe 1 friend now

>>731692514
for future reference, all of this:
>The games have the best open world exploration I've seen and experienced. The game engine is the same as Death Stranding, which creates beautiful environments
is garbage that means nothing. i don't know what you've seen or experienced so when you tell me something is the best you've experienced, it literally means nothing to me. i can't possibly use it as a measurement of anything.
separately, both PES Soccer 2014 and MGSV run on the same engine. i believe you when you say you think the game looks great, and to an extent i'm sure it does, but your measure here isn't a worthwhile one. i'd much rather hear you compare the beautiful environments to specific other games and explain why it enhances the game or why the game makes a good use of the beautiful environments.
>You can rockclimb most surfaces, slide 20 feet at a time, fly on a (very slow) dinosaur
why do these games do any of this better than BOTW or TOTK? you *can* do those things but when the game marks 90% of worthwhile content on your map i dont feel any incentive to explore

>>731688464
Sounds like torture. Kotoha is abysmal at games

Haven't played 4 yet and will get to it but SMT5 has one of the most consistently good OSTs I've ever heard. Legit every single song is high quality and even area music which can be bland in most games

I think a game running at 30 FPS . People put too much emphasis on frame rate to the point of even using fake frames to get that stupid number up

Also I'm pretty sure consoles serve as a way to force game devs to give a shit about optimization .

The best games are the ones where numbers go up. A fundamental flaw in MMOs and other games of this nature is they put a hard cap on how much you can level and how strong you can get. The ultimate game would be a game you could grind forever and the longer you grind the more powerful you become. No game has had the balls to do this.

Diablo 3 does that. The paragon levels are infinite

I wouldn't have a problem with gay, lesbian, or trans characters in games. If they were written like actual human beings. And by terrible writers making them the worst aspect of the game it just validates and perpetuates the bigotry they complain about. They have no one to blame but themselves.

>>731692670
The only guy I ever met IRL who had "internet friends" was some obese GOA rave guy like a really ugly dude who lived in his parents basement. He had literally every drug in his room and a full LSD stamp poster he got off the dark web markets and he was sort of nice but extremely cringe. I don't understand people on here who say they have no friends though. Maybe It's because I'm European but even the greasiest DND types have friends and girlfriends here.

I think fan service is important in video games since it can establish a friendly connection between the creators and the fans (as intended) and help build a long term relationship based on trust and mutual understanding.

It’s retarded that there isn’t a good Fast and the Furious video game yet. Just take Need for Speed and put the iconic Fast and the Furious cars in it. That’s like 90% of the work already.

>>731692792
>i dont feel any incentive to explore
That's a "you" problem

>>731692124
I haven't played Forbidden West, but HZD has 0 exploration.
It's ubislop-like, with retarded "activity" markers on the map that's anti-thesis of good exloration.
I gave that game 10 hours because combat vs dinos is quite fun and graphics are still good but the rest of this game is just average at best.

Stellar Blade was a fantastic game and I think it will grow in popularity after the first major % sale or after it gets cracked or has Denuvo removed.

Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is one of the best JRPGs ever made and is also in the list of best video games ever made.

XC2 is one of those rare games that I've continued to regularly think about years after I've beat it. I feel like a crazy person because people either hate the game because of the character designs or exclusively want to talk about how sexy the characters are.
Meanwhile, I could talk for hours about the game's story. All of its themes, ideas, characters, world building, everything. Yet I feel like a weirdo because whenever I take the game seriously it is just "Pyra = Sexist" or "Pyra = Sexy". Was my copy of XC2 personalized and I was the only one who got the story?

I think the game's biggest strength is that the ending is the best part. Most long games/pieces of media have issues with the ending falling flat, but for XC2 the ending is actually the emotional, narrative, and thematic climax and was incredibly satisfying.

>>731692863
It sounds good on paper but then you realize you would have to sell your soul to play a game like that.
At some point power creep becomes so absurd it's pure comedy.
I like numbers-go-up autism like Path of Exile, but there you have limited time to achieve that so it doesn't get completely stale.
I know I would spend 12h+ daily on a game like that until I would burn out and quit forever.
