>greatest story ever told in a videogame>still no movie adaptationwhy ?
>>214267456Doesn't work if it's not playable
>>214267456>greatest story ever told in a videogame>"WAR IS... LE BAD!"so this is the power of vidya
>>214267456Some stories are meant to only be experienced in the form they were made. Same reason why there aren't Breaking Bad video games.
>>214267486>there aren't Breaking Bad video games.Last time I played Morrowind I made a mage and made a ton of gold making and selling Moon Sugar
The game's story only works if you play through it like a retarded game journalist.If you make the slightest attempt to not play as a complete braindead psycho, you immediately notice the game is forcing you into what it wants and then berates you for it later.
>>214267486>Same reason why there aren't Breaking Bad video games.What about the classic Breaking Bad game Breaking Bad Game?
>>214267456A movie this openly hateful of the American military can never be made, and it is extremely lucky that this game even got made.
>>214267456>Spec Ops: The Line: The movie>Movie ends with credits berating the audience>"REEEEEEEE YOU CAUSED ALL THIS!! YOU COULD HAD STOPPED THIS!!"No thanks
>>214267456Apocalypse Now really ripped off Spec Ops The Line
>>214267456because it would make kikes seethe, as you're witnessing right now
I want a SOtL-like game about an American naval drone pilot who murders Venezuelan fishermen in the open sea.
I love the score but the story isn't anything special. Civilians get deliberately targeted in wars. It can be a very effective strategy. Look up Operation Meetinghouse.
It didn't make a big impact on me at the time, it was kind of funny, like a shitpost in videogame form. But thinking back there were a lot of people unironically into cod/battlefield zogslop and not being mocked anywhere near enough for it. I appreciate it a lot more in light of that.
>>214268233>fishermen>boat has no zero fishing gear and 4 outboard motors fuck off you communist homosexual atheist
>>214267456>press x to kill people>*X*>omfg why did you do that you are a horrible person!video games WILL never be art
>>214267456apocalypse now? Platoon? full metal jacket? hamburger hill? every military movie ever made?Just read heart of darkness if you want to see more of the source material. Games should be about systems and mechanics. If you want to tell a story write a book or produce a movie.
>>214267456>>greatest story ever told in a videogameno
>>214267456Heart of Darkness is the original book.Apocalypse Now is the movie.Spec Ops: The Line is the game.https://archive.4plebs.org/tv/thread/211681801/#q211683421
>>214268279Have fun drowning in the Gulf of Mexico for Israel.
>>214267456we already got it on TV
>>214267456That's not Metal Gear, and MG is already a movievideogame
lmao take this shitty game and shove it up your nigger ass
>>214267456It would make a great movie only if they change it from being a constant sob story about war bad. To WAR FUN a sort of starship troopers style war against a bunch of towel heads instead. That would really subvert expectations then.
>>214268369>Gulf of MexicoAnon I...
>>214267456The punchline is Apocalypse Now, but at the risk of sounding like a tumblrite, Undertale is an even better anti-war video game than Spec Ops.
>>214268467>muh deplorable choices!Do these people don't understand that videogames aren't real
>>214268362>Heart of Darkness is the original book.>Apocalypse Now is the movie.>Spec Ops: The Line is the game.Ad Astra is the kino.
>>214268578killing pixels is a very big deal, anon. I bet you even enjoy playing RTSs to satisfy your God complex, you maniac.
>>214267456>WHAT THE FUCK YOU DID THE ONLY THING THAT WOULD PROGRESS THE GAME STORY YOU SICK FUCK THE GOOD ENDING WAS TO STOP PLAYING THE GAMEFuck you
>>214268584>Ad AstraThat movie is such boring dog shit
>>214268681It is a little heavy-handed, yes, which is why Undertale is better. That game actually gives the player a choice and never comes across as preachy.
I prefer when you do evil stuff in a videogame and you actually get rewarded for it, like in Fallout when you nuke that town and you get a penthouse floor
>>214268584goes to show how massively superior books are to movies and movies to games
>>214269517Not much of a reward though. The tower is in the corner of the map, in contrast to Megaton which is located perfectly in the middle, so you're rewarded with an inconveniently out of the way hub area for the rest of the game.
>>214267470The game isn't really playable either. Meaning that there's no actual choice. You could just put the controller down at the start and not kill any civvies, but then you had spent $60 for nothing.If the devs were any good there would have been an actual choice at the beginning to either go in and do fun war crimes or go back home. Then the game would have turned into building yourself a career of embellished books, YT videos, and tactical coffee or some other veteran-owned business shit.
>>214269578IndeedBooks >> Movies >>> Video gamesVideo games are not art, they're toys.
>>214267456Never work. The message of Alex Garland war films are lost on the audience
>>214267545>>214269746I dunno, I thought it was neat that when you are faced with the linching mob, you actually have the choice of dispersing them by gunning them down or shooting over their heads.They run either way, so whatever you do it's you choosing to do it.
Same reason why China and Russia stopped being used as the bad guys since the 90s (except Russian mob lol), because we are fucking globohomo and you cannot call out something bad for what it is as it would ruin global box office in BRIX countries
