>games have gotten so dire that a sequel to an okay Metroid-like is the most hyped and anticipated game in years and likely GOTY candidateKek I can't help but feel bad for kids growing up in this gaming climateImagine if Metroid Fusion was the most anticipated game of 2002 and most likely GOTY candidate, instead of >Vice City>Warcraft 3>Morrowind>Mario Sunshine>Zelda Wind Waker>Kingdom Hearts>Neverwinter Nights>Metroid Prime>Ratchet & Clank>Sly Cooper>Hitman 2>Tony Hawk Pro Skater 4>etcIt would've been comical to suggest a 2D handheld tier game as superior to any of these let alone all of them
>OkayHK is way better than just 'ok'. Ok would mean it is average when compared to the rest of the industry. I fucking wish.
>>719561080It's "okay" for a Metroid-like, it's about on par with Fusion, the point of the thread is that games have gotten so dire that this okay is better than anything else coming out
>we can never go back
>>719561305>it's about on par with FusionAbsolutely not, Hollow Knight is infinitely better than Fusion.If Fusion was an original IP people wouldn't even be calling it a metroidvania. It doesn't have any of the strengths of the genre at all. It's not even a good Metroid game.Only good thing about it is the spritework for some of the bosses (too bad the actual fights are terrible).
>>719564575Not really, they're on par, HK has somewhat deeper gameplay systems (not always necessarily better) while Fusion has better art, music, atmosphere and premise, while being a tighter experience overall Though even if Silksong is twice as good as Fusion, I'd still say it wouldn't warrant the hype and praise if gaming was still good and healthy
>>719560681>>Vice City>>Warcraft 3>>Morrowind>>Mario Sunshine>>Zelda Wind Waker>>Kingdom Hearts>>Neverwinter Nights>>Metroid Prime>>Ratchet & Clank>>Sly Cooper>>Hitman 2>>Tony Hawk Pro Skater 4Which one of these do you think isn't total goyslop exactly? I'm being 100% serious here. This is a major problem and you people need a reality check.
>>719565173Fuck off, moeblob.
>>719565229Which one? Because all of these games are total ass. Go play a video game that isn't for retarded children, for once in your life.
Im starting to think having a barrier to entry for video games wasnt 100% a bad thing because we literally have 50+ games coming out EVERY SINGLE DAY on steam. Lets say 49/50 are complete slop, thats still 1 decent game every day, but how are you supposed to find them? How is anyone supposed to have time to play all these games? Its not just games either, theres way too many fucking tv shows being pumped on on streaming services too. We are in complete media overload right now.
>>719561080Hollow Knight is the worst game of its genre I've played and I've played them since before they had a name. Awful piece of shit.
>>71956537390% of everything has always been shit. Look up sturgeons law
>>719564575No, I'd rather play Fusion any day of the week.
>>719565173He won't answer because he's scared. People who make threads like this don't play anything and they spam the catalog with the same awful games every day.
>>719565490It feels like 99% these days
>>719565584Stop samefagging.
>>719560681damn, that image just reminds me of what we lost. gen 6 was the last time the industry was full of soul. shit has sucked hard since
>>719565173>>719565316thank you thank you thank you so much for consistently posting mahirokun i just wanna say seeing you post makes me wanna kill myself less
>>719565173Total zoomer cope
>>719565604Well you're wrong because there is never a time when I can't go on steam or itch and find a game that's better than OPs entire list. And by today's standards it will simply be a mediocre game. You just don't play enough genres or you don't play hard enough games. I have never not had a video game to play, I always feel spoiled for choice. Imagine praising dogshit like ratchet and clank, OP is literally some brown pajeet.
>>719566054>Well you're wrong because there is never a time when I can't go on steam or itch and find a game that's better than OPs entire list.lol
>>719566113What's better? Aeromachina or Ratchet and Clank?
>>719566054I've played more games than you and for longer. There is not a single game in the OP list I would not play over fucking Hollow Knight or Metroid Fusion.
>>719566251I literally do not understand what you are trying to say
>>719566353>zoomnigger is illiterate and retardedNo surprises there
>>719566353You wouldn't.
>people actually think HK has 10/10 visuals and musicThat's the strangest thing about it to me, it's so fucking minimal and barebones, I'd call them functional at best yet people suck them like crazy
>>719567541Zoomers worship low effort
