Did Jeff "I jiggle my balls at night" Gerstmann deserve the flak for his below perfect review score of LoZ Twighlight Princess?
I miss pre-2013 GB so fucking much bros.
If you asked me this 12-15 years ago I'd say no. Asking me this now, after I know him almost as well I know my family? Yes, and worse.

I always see people calling fighting games dead, especially when they are referring to other skill based 1v1 games like arena shooters or RTS. But here is the thing, fighting games are more alive than they have ever been. You need to remember that fighting games are also on console, and most modern fighting games have crossplay enabled. Take the steam daily peak player count and triple it, that is basically the true daily peak of available players. I'd say there are probably anywhere from 100,000 to 200,000 unique players daily when you take into account all modes. Compared to arena shooters, fighting games are incredibly thriving. We have active local scenes, competitive scenes, and online scenes. The biggest name in arena shooters only gets a peak of 400 players daily. RTS games may be a bit more popular than fighting games when it comes to player count, but our competitive and local scenes are actually alive and thriving. When you compare fighting games to other popular games, you have to remember it is a 1v1 game. A better metric to compare it to other games is to take the number of possible matches that could be happening at a time. For example, in order to fill an ARC Raiders lobby you need 21 players. Lets take the peak and divide it by the amount of players you need to have a match.>445,973/21 = 21237Now lets do the same for Street Fighter 6>37,646/2 = 18823Note, these are only Steam numbers, the amount of playable matches at peak hours is actually much greater. Outside of the titans, the "liveliness" of SF6 is comparable to most popular multiplayer games.Sorry for the bad grammar, I'm ESL.

How do you guys think the undertale prequel fan games in development should handle saving for the souls? My idea is hallucinations, everytime a soul dies,he wakes up and start at the last point he slept at(that's his way of saving,taking rest at various places,everytime he dies,it's a bad ending). Another idea I have is a character from the future travelled backing in time to stop something horrible from happening after the undertale ending and is helping the soul out. To me,this is good idea because you can introduce the original cast without breaking canon. Heck,this could be the weird route or the true ending of a prequel game.
>>729126980Who would the monsters side with if they broke the barrier and found the surface as it was in HL2?
>>729127747That's a good question.>Some monsters age much slower than others>Other monsters age incredibly fast>Some don't age at all>Some infant monsters need alcohol to liveIt would certainly be a challenge to legislate drinking in a society like that.
>>729128913now that would be an interesting twist if the surface is nearly inhabitable and the underground was the last safe place on earth, wonder if someone will make something out of this
>>729127969You could just have it be after peace between humans and monsters has been established. Chujin can seethe all he wants, but humans and monsters are walking down the streets, holding hands, and singing kumbaya now. The war is over, and he has no grounds to attack Clover over. Plus I'm sure Ceroba would absolutely defend after all Clover did for her.

>returns to top 10 global best selling list on Steam>returns to top 10 global best selling list on Playstation>returns to top 10 global best selling list on XboxSo awards don't matter, right?
>>729128692Yeah because they gave away in-game currency if you voted for it. Real awards don't nominate gachagames because they just buy their addicts off with anime whores.
>>729125341No wonder it's selling. It's a good, GOOD, game made in 2025. That's like finding a unicorn.
>>729125341>awardsyou mean marketingand yes, marketing matters
>>729125493Indie just means its not corpo jew dogshit for the modern audience in 2025
>>729129325Awards are marketing you get for free if your game's good enough.
Why is it that the more time passes the more I look back fondly of these games. Maybe whatever the FF13 games were trying to be is sorely lacking in recent games, whatever that is. I don't even really care about FF7 Remake Part 3, just give me ports of FF13.
These games will never not be the absolute worst this series has to offer no matter how much time passes
>>729127231Because you're a grifting retard with no taste or moral integrity
>>729128850I don't see FF14,15, 16 or 7Remake in the OP.
>>729128356It's like someone designed a really great and profound turn based combat, then some absolute asshole went there and took away every single mechanic dividing in like 50 parts, and keeps just feeding you that slowly for dozens of hours. The gameplay when you finally get everything is great, but god damn, it sucks tilll you get thereXIII-2 is great, as it already starts with those options. Lightning Returns is more action orientedSo yeah, XIII is something you suffer once, but XIII-2 and LR are so good, you end up replaying those time and time again
>man, pressing x to win sure was nostalgic, amirite fellow zoomoids?
Todd Haters shaking hard right now. The Starfield they were shitting on was a pre-alpha tech demo compared to Starfield 2.0.
>>729128242>release shitty unfinished product>goyim buy it anyways because they cant control their wallets>profit>add shitty "patch" years later>profit again>let modders fix your game
>>729128501Starfield sales are proof that "voting with your wallet" is just a meme and has no basis in reality.
So you're admitting the game is shit currently? Cool.

I liked it, still playing it, tho, haven't gotten to a Ryu level yet. I just wish Yakumo had a sheath for his swords, I know he is supposed to have blood magic, but, still.

It's currently free on EGS. Game play is very slim to say the least, because it's just a matter of exhausting the dialogue options, but it has interesting lore which gels well with the pseudo-vaporwave style. Also a grade A soundtrack. All in all, it's more of a walking simulator with a bit of collectathon elements than a mystery solver, but I loved spending time in that weird island.What other games you would like to see being talked about more?
bumpHere's your chance to talk about games which /v/, let alone other sites, never talk about.
>>729126506I read about this last week but this game has a cool bit of storytelling that fighting games don't usually do. One character doesn't like killing but if you finish your opponents with a lethal move, her reactions go from horrified, to breaking down in tears, to actually enjoying it. It's really neat to see
>>729126506Looked like wokeslopNo thanks tim

>>729129041Meme turnover is too quick these days
>Capcom somehow manages to make a traditional fighting game that's fun to play without knowing how to play>No one, including Capcom, ever replicates it again, instead they just dumb down the mechanics when they want to make a game "accessible"Why can no one replicate the success of MvC2?
>>729126774Also my retarded ass forgot my image. Cover art didn't mean much back then, especially when you consider how games way back in the day (80s 90s) would have cover art that straight up didn't match ANYTHING in the game at all.
>>729126774>>729126869The cover art was the most important thing in terms of selling games back then. Most kids didn't know shit about the games they were getting their parents to buy, at most they maybe saw a commercial or read about it in a magazine. The purpose of cover art back then was to be eye catching.
>>729124590Guile is iconic and Psylocke had appeared in Capcom games before
>>729127489Still didn't hold as much weight as it does now. Again back then companies were literally scamming people with ridiculous box art with aliens and fantasy dragons and all kinds of shit and then you get the game and it's pixelated dog shit. Nowadays it matters because people are going to tweet and screech about how their favorite celebrity and fag streamer isn't the on the cover art or cover athlete. Which is ironic since most people buy digital and won't even see the cover of the game besides the 2 secs of them clicking to start the app up.
>>729128163You sound retarded.
In 10 years' time, will the collective dickriding of this game (and its total sweep of the Game Awards) be looked back on as farcical and embarrassing?
>>729110428Yes. It has already started actually, because E33 and the most overrated video game in history. It is barely a 7/10.
>>729121586He said Tactics ADVANCE, though, anon. Your shitpost is targeted at the wrong game.
>>729110428This shit isn't even popular in the first place, so once people stop whining about the goy awards it'll fade away with the rest of the forgotten slop games.
what fucking level do i have to be to tackle drafts?and why is everything hitting and taking millions of damage
>>729129160I went through there around level 75 or so but Verso hard carried with gun / base attack build that consumed burn stacks.
>it's bad because... THE ECELEB SAID SO!
>>729112972play deeeemmceee too
>>729112972Yeah It's really dumbfounding how the second official entry in the most recognized hack n slash fanchise ever made is this piece of slop shit. Like say what you want about God of War but the quality of the original trilogy is Goated. The first game is amazing for its time (and honestly not that much less "deep" than the original DMC which doesn't even have air combos), the second game is arguably the best in the trilogy and better than the first for sure, and the third is also incredible and hasn't aged a day graphically. Even the PSP games are pretty good. The games that follow after that are basically a different genre with rpg numbers shit so we don't talk about those. Meanwhile DMC has the first game being amazing, the second game being one of the worst games ever made, the third game being a masterpiece. And then a lacking and incomplete fourth game, and a mediocre fifth game. And a reboot that is a piece of trash. Not exactly a spotless record.
>>729128836they post shit about "square square triangle" when nearly every action game has a similar thing going on. the old trilogy are very solid, not the best but fairly good
>>729128836>>729129060The kids who grew up with GoW are getting just as uppity as Halofags are nowadays.
