It seems like people here just likes bad games while hating good games. Is it just another case of /v/ being contrarian or are there any other factors contributing to it?

'fraid so

that's why the hidden gems threads are so good. so many more people to talk about niche shit with that it drowns out niggers like that

dude the popular game threads like Nintendo game threads are fucking awful too, it's all console wars and yelling
the mods have failed us by letting us get to this point, they ban the wrong shit and delete the wrong posts half of the time

unrelated but for a few threads i tried to hallucinate a /v/ schizo into existence by accusing people of being "james" when i thought it was funny
later i found out there is already a "james" schizo or i'm so fucking good at this that i have adahn'd him into existence

You either have never seen a Nintendo thread on /v/ or you're the one shitting them up.
>>
>>720798801
It's gotten so schizo that even saying a game is shit gets you called a shill.
/v/irgins are so autistic that they can't fathom someone liking something they don't like. They also don't understand that there are more threads on something when more people like it. I have literally seen niggas say that there are daily final fantasy threads(not even a specific one, just FF in general), but there aren't daily system shock threads; the only explanation is that FF threads are posted by shills

>>720798801
/v/ as well as most boards now are 3/4 thirdies that can't afford to buy let alone have the hardware capable of running 90% of new releases
the only way a game is organically praised on /v/ is if it's both free and runs on a toaster, otherwise they must be a shill

This isn't what happens.
What happens is you trying to prop up woke shit and getting shut down.
When you keep spamming bg3 threads - you will never have one "smooth sailing" because nobody wants this game.
When you try to talk about this game and others like kcd2, hades, and whatever else is on your agenda - it's never about the game or gameplay, it's always about how supposedly successful it is, idle chatter generated by ai, and repeated waifu folder dumping.
And you have been caught being hostile against games that actually interest people here - you were treating Elin threads as generals and deleting them, and you now hate Silksong but it's too big for you to do anything about it.

So get fucked, glowie shill.
You get what you fucking deserve.

it's literally shitposting (and advertising at the same time) but it's a troll(s) making fun of faggots that actually pre-ordered. It was the same thing when saints row was releasing and every thread started with HUZZAH!
>>
>>720800302
don't forget that:
/v/ isn't just everyone, it's a specific subset of demographics, and certain games that aren't very appealing overall might become more popular than usual, while others might completely sidestep the entire board
like nine sols last year had active threads for nearly the whole summer after getting released in may, but overall there isn't that much discussion of it online outside of spaces dedicated specifically to it.
>>
Nintendo is NOT smooth sailing. You can't have a thread about any of their games without a war breaking out. Besides maybe Kirby people like him

>>720798801
it's easy to spot shill threads because they post an image of a game and then a mildy unrelated question like "what is your favourite X mechanic?" while clearly steering the conversation towards the picrelated and only engaging when someone takes notice.
>>
>>720798801
/v/ is a primo ragebait/contrarian board
People fish for bait to keep anons engaged in a thread to keep it active, it's the meta. Mods facilitate this by not banning off-topic threads and users that intentionally detail a thread as much as they should, almost to the point we're /b/-lite

>If you notice the grotesque and obvious paid actors on /v/ and things that make it undeniable like the fagmins removing the global thread creation limit so shit that paid for spam privileges can be spammed even harder, you're a schizo
Also no OP people point out the hilarious overshilling of low quality nintendo crap, thing is, the fagmins ban those people.
Hell as of this year it's more undeniable than ever given Deltarune an actually highly anticipated game is banned and only sticks around because the admins are too exhausted to keep up with banning it.
And some shit like silk song has 9 threads just in case you forgot it was DEFINITELY and TOTALLY popular.

SRB2 peaked with Marriage edition and the various Kart Racer forks suck as Mugen Kart, not the least of the issues which that the community sucks Hulk Hogan dick.

how is the most wishlisted game on steam which became a meme with it's incredibly long devtime is not popular? even my normalfag friends who never played HK brought silksong
>>
>>720808217
It's fine if you like silksong, that's not my point.
There is not 200+ threads worth of shit to talk about silksong and CERTAINLY not at the same time an hour after it released.
It's a fucking metroidvania.
>>
>>720808351
HK community is full of actual autists, all you have to know, and autists are terminally online
there's a youtube channel that dissected every single new piece of information regarding the game every single day for more than 3 years straight

You really are a schizo. No one is talking about bg3. Furthermore people are constantly saying the popularity of silksong is due to shills.
>>
I love how all the fags defending this retarded behavior are all tripping over themselves.
According to this thread, all these game threads are only posted by shills
>silksong
>bg3
>borderlands
>"woke" games. Nevermind that /v/ loves shitting on those
>>
>>720810668
Whining about people noticing doesn't make the massive fucking astroturfing problem go away.
Or do I need to bring up that there were shills on the payroll screaming at people to not buy a steam deck when it was totally out of stock for months and something like that would have been obvious to people whose only interest in gaming came from being paid to be a nigger.

Just ignore shitty threads. Most of 4chan is contrarian failed boomers or schizo retards banned everywhere else.

It flopped hard and it's shilled here.

Incorrect, they like free games and anti-woke youtube videos because they cost nothing
