During the Xbox 360 era, Microsoft nearly defeated Sony.Now, the Xbox is basically dead.
I miss the 360 Era, yeah it wasn't perfect but you had fantastic online multiplayer and tons of great single player games.And you could always save up for a PS3 and Wii for their exclusives.
>>729627470xbox 360 era>literally paying devs to develop exclusives and keep them out of every other console and PCxbox series era>exclusives don't matter lolgee I wonder what happened
>>729627470xbox as a brand was never alive>phatshit sales would have killed any other company>360RROD would have killed any other company and landed its execs in prison>boneshit sales again>seriesshit sales againBasically it was always a forced meme brand propped up by MS infinite war chest
>another gathering of snoys rather indulge in each others delusions instead of playing any of the excellent games released in this and last year
Xbox will never fail because the US Military has to source domestic vidya
“Modern values” don't even exist—these faggots just refuse to face reality.
>>729630218>modern>valuesMore like lack of values
>>729630316>>729630218Skyfall is such an excellent movie, not just because it has great action, beautiful locations, and a fun villain, but also because the subtext of the story is the concern that the old fashioned version of 007 as both an MI6 institution and as fictional character is "out of date". The whole film is a deconstruction of classic Bond. I mean, the main "Bond girl" of Skyfall is M, the granny who both Bond and Silva have a bit of a mother complex with. It does this while not disrupting the core Bond experience so the movie ends up pleasing everyone. That's why it's one of the highest grossing and beloved films of all time.IO could have done something like this again if they had really wanted to make a "modern" Bond and do the franchise justice, but of course in typical game industry fashion, they've gone for the laziest decision, instead of making something fun AND thoughtful.
>>729630316why do companies come out and say this? it alienates so many people. do they honestly think people who think bond is "sexist" on principle would have their minds changed by this? my feminist family members would just snort and forget about it within a few minutes. you dont cater to the demographic you want, you cater to the demographic you HAVE. thats business 101
>>729641843True, but it's really fun propaganda, so as long as you recognise it as such, who cares. Nobody hates Top Gun for being the most blatant propaganda ever, because it's just a cool fun film.
>>729632924So far they influenced Trump winning so nice work
Why is she such a jobber?
>>729650992>watchedBad choice, read the VN.Besides you watching the 2004 show that mixes up 3 fucking routes together in a weird mess (featuring CGI dragons), the anime shows, even the Ufotable ones with godlike animation, didn't adapt the story very well because of no narration and many other things they've changed.In the 2nd route, one of the most crucial fights has been straight up murdered and made not as much as memorable just to give an example.The protagonist is STILL an autist shit in the VN tho, but that's what makes him likeable in my opinion.
>>729650840It goes straight to the root, that's why the Tohsaka are involved. Tohsaka just wanted the root for its own sake as prim and proper magi. Einzberns wanted the root to reclaim the Third Magic, not to use it for anything, just to have it again because it is theirs. It was Makiri that wanted to save the world and give everyone immortality.
>>729639253A-ARE THOSE WOBBLY PUNCHES??? AAAIIIIIEEEEEEE HIGH SCHOOL TEACHER-SAMA, GOMENSAAAAAAI
>>729614034Why is she standing in that pose?
>>729651191>Tohsaka just wanted the root for its own sake as prim and proper magi.You can't get true magic by retreading the route someone already took.>Einzberns wanted the root to reclaim the Third Magic, not to use it for anything, just to have it again because it is theirs.They already have it, it's just a bitch to use. Illya uses it just fine.
Incredible, there is not a single good arpg game on the market.

And none of these builds ever explain why. The original guide I clicked on just links it but looks like they pasted the wrong fucking class build.Is that supposed to be the fun of POE2?>"yeah dude just pick the druid and go 3 skills into daggers, 1 into wands, another 2 in crossbow, and then go way into staffs and don't ask questions about any of this because I'll never explain it that's your fault for not having 3000 hours in poe1".Yeah, guess I'm stupid and filtered.

>>729650718>the writing and music are leagues belowYou fucking what mate. Are you sure you're not mixing up games? You can reasonably complain about many things in GD, given yes its mod for titan quest that got pumped full of indiegogo steroids, but the writing and music are kind of the only places where crate didn't have to compromise due to that.

>>729637884I think anyone that says the cast is bad are being disingenuous. I always see it the most from trails and persona fans too, who will prefer cardboard cutout walking anime cliches and say "Verso is a bad person :(".There's a weird level of hatred towards E33 from both fans of way more niche jrpgs like Trails and Rune Factory, and fans of the previous most popular franchises like Persona and Final Fantasy. They both feel threatened by the game in different ways and lash out instead of just admitting "yea it's a good game with annoying fans"
>>729650783>Verso is a bad personYeah I don't get this complaint at all. That's the whole fucking point behind his character. A bad person is not the same as a bad character.
>>729650538AAAIIIIIEEEEEEE
>>729618107She looks like a boy a lot of the time, not a lot of feminine features in her face
There's no way this game is going to be even worse than Marvel's Spider-Man 2 right?
>>729649887Don't forget gotham knights.

>>729649452Yes, untill 2032.
>>729650491Why can't westerners write organic strong female characters? This was so fucking insufferable that it reeked some dev's self insert.
>>729651234they don't really know how one looks and acts like because every woman they know is either loud and obnoxious or a sexworker/OF model
i have never seen this game discussed here. i'm a fan of action rpgs so is this worth playing through?
>>729637648I liked it but stopped caring about the story by the last 1/4th or so, and never bothered to replay it as the other character. (i picked the autistic girl) pretty bad party bloat like most jrpgs, but it means you get more abilities too so it's not as bad here. arashi collecting apple IIs was cool.its alright/10
But is it fun?
>>729638487Astlibra Revision is the only one that comes to mind for me.
>>729637648It's alright I like the visual aesthetic of it and the gameplay is decent but the story is kinda eh
>>729650292Combat is pretty cool but quickly gets repetitive, story is okay, but nothing specialI made the mistake of buying the game full price on release. It's not worth it, but at at least 50% off it's worth a playthrough.

>>729650184Venezuelan here, nobody cares about the homeless, so much for socialism eh? But anyway, charity is only available when you have money and even when you can retire some bills worth literal pennies thanks to inflation, you can see they made their own bed.Too bad many normalfags and boomers may feel their hearts ache sometimes but forget many of them are either drug addicts, some older hobos are mentally ill people abandoned by their families or have no one to take care of them, but most of them are drug addicts. Sometimes they are children forced by their situation or their bastard parents, as they can be pitiable but by the time they start begging they make gypsies look tolerable. The worst ones are the parking lot "vigilants", you leave your car on the streets and by the time you return you see they placed a paper slip and start asking for money for their "work",most of the time they aren't even in the same street where you park or appear out of nowhere at last minute, so you either drive away or have some bills prepared just in case (again, they are worth shit to the point you can't even buy a snack).No wait, the real worst ones are the windshield cleaners who start doing shit without your permission only to start begging afterwards if you let them clean or when they are rejected. All of them wear decent clothing and some have smartphone, so you can already imagine they are drug dealers.>but anon, what's your final solution?A gun, shoot them all. Even the children.Yeah, I know when a situation is unfixable, no wonder God was so wrathful in the Old Testament. I denounce the Talmud, death to socialists and lefties.
>>729651019>Lmao, that doesn't happen where I liveI guarantee you it does
>>729650882>The beggars you are passing by are mostly part of organized crime gangs that swindle money out of tourists and good samaritans,Eh not all of them, that's mostly the gypsies and illegals. There are plenty of white druggies as well
>>729647452I hate Blackrock, but that's more on /pol/ things.
>>729641772nope. our economy actually works while you're busy voting for a retard that thinks "affordability" is a hoax
>It's fine if you enjoy it but accept that it's shit and stop making excuses for it.How is what I enjoy about a game "making excuses" for it? Have you ever thought that I took away something different than you did?
It's what people say when they're still seething about you liking somethingIt's juuuuust a step up in maturity from "YOU *CAN'T* like this" to "Ok fiiiine, I'll... permit... you to like it, but you still have to say you don't really like it"It's what stupid people do when they're trying to act not emotionally fragile but they still areLike when a kid doesn't get the 'be the bigger person' thing and demands a reward for doing it performatively
>>729649952Very mature answer, thank you.

Western games can have full frontal nudity and naked sex scenes and everyone celebratesAsian games get permabanned from storefronts if a swimsuit doesnt cover a girl’s shoulders or if 1 pixel of panty is visibleWhy are they so hypocritical?
>>729650797Show me the full frontal from this game? Because I played it and never saw this.
