Echopoint NovaThe combat encounters which makes up the majority of gameplay have to be the most retarded things I've ever seen. Basically they boil down to>kill x amount of enemies>doesn't matter which enemies you kill, you just have to kill x amount>the second you kill an enemy they respawn and they all keep respawning until you hit that kill count at which point they all just instantly disappearI don't even know how you fuck up that bad when it comes to game design. It goes against all common sense. Any need to prioritize threats goes out the window because anything you kill just instantly comes back at full health. There's no point in even trying to kill bigger enemies because even if you do kill them they instantly come right back and as long as you hit the kill requirement they're just going to instantly disappear anyway. Ultimately it turns every fight into just killing the weakest enemies on the field over and over again because they're the easiest ones to kill and the only ones you actually need to kill.

>>724714317Honestly this. I really enjoyed 1, couldn't stomach 2.
Star Wars Knights of the Old RepublicMaybe if you played it back when it originally released you'd have a better time but in 2025, it's a real slog. Awkward controls, stiff voice acting, dull environments. There are better RPGs and better Star Wars games.
>>724715153I also didn't like 3 as much, it was definitely an improvement from 2 but I feel 1 was the best of the bunch. I have to go back and play Warhead sometime soon.

You see stoneshard and think "that looks like my type of game", but it's incredibly half baked, unbalanced, and tedious right now
>>724718271I thought the first one was decent but it really does have the airs of a game made for 2016 tumblrites. Did you play the first or just the second?
>>724718214Weak bait. You don't have to like it but obviously it is miles away from being "one of the worst games ever made".>>724718271Oh shit. Really? What's wrong with it?
>>724718445it's been a long ass time since I played it, but after skipping around a gameplay video I'm pretty certain that's the one I'm thinking of. it was surprising good for being pretty different from the main games, but it sounds like an idea guy's fever dream pitch on paper.
>>724718521Says a lot about your sanity.
>>724712451Starfield, veilguard, god of war ragnarok
charming but not very good
>>724712451I wouldn't recommend Earthbound. It's too dated. Admittedly, it has a lot of elements I do like. I love the art style, the music, the creativity in enemy designs and settings, those moments when you find sanctuaries, the culminating point during the final boss battle, and its trademark quirkiness and charm. I also appreciate it for the influence it's had. But still, the problems it has are just too stark to be a good gameplay experience. The chief one is that the the core gameplay loop gets very tedious and boring. The battle system is a complete miss. It's just your regular RPG one with a small gimmick thrown in on top. All the characters are one-dimensional and boring. I don't find the plot engaging, except for a few brilliant moments. It's way too long for the amount of tedium it makes you experience.
>>724717858TBOI?
>>724713837Yeah, I'm a bit disappointed with it. I found the design of Severed Steel much more interesting in general.I 100% Echo Point but like, it's missing something in its core design.
>>724718636Can you explain why? I really want to try this game.

Anything I've played that overstays its welcome.The chief example of the top of my head would be Valheim.
>>724712451League of Legends. What a shitty game with an even shittier community.
>>724717182Reinstalled sharttide a few days ago and the game has ~half of the playerbase as when I last played (2 years ago) and it's even more of a chore to get a game. Yeah some things are improved, but damn overall it's really hard to give a fuck, especially now with how bad progression is and how bloated the "combat" is. Not feeling it, will probably drop it for good soon.
My summer car and fear and hunger, it's going to be ruined by anyone who plays it.
>>724719781I mean, that was the joke. Dinkleberg was just some dude who was slightly more well-off then Timmy's dad.Of course, then they ran the joke into the ground by making him a saint, a megamillionaire and/or a god amongst men, but they ran every fucking joke in this show into the ground so that's not new.
GBA Baldurs Gate was kinda meh
>>724714778I played it and it was alright. More memorable than engage.
>>724719642>spend years listening to posts saying how good it is like it's the second coming of christ>didnt own a console at the time so never played it>finally comes to pc>it's good but NOWHERE near as good as consolefags made it seemIt was a bit disappointing just from all the glazing it got.
>>724717292I'm playing this right now. It's fine, but combat definitely feels flat, and the fat character you get feels like ass to play. Plus I've only run into one weapon on the cat girl. I don't think it's necessarily bad, but I do think I would've appreciated it more if I played back in the day.
Dark Souls 2Team Fortress 2X-COM: Enforcer
>>724719934what does zooble have to do with this
Even if you put the DEI shit aside this shit still kind of sucks. Devs wanted to make a top down Terraria but clearly didn't understand what made Terraria work. Every biome just feels the same but with different enemies and different rocks. If you look at Terraria, every biome was truly different, not just in the types of enemies or items you encountered, but also in terms of terrain generation. Here, just about everything is the same. Once you're underground every cave is just a cave, doesn't matter if it's in the desert, plains, forest, swamp, or snow. The only thing that changes is the color of the rocks, the enemies, and maybe one or two structures unique to that biome's cave system you find. Also the fact that they boast about infinite sized worlds is laughable. Who gives a fuck about how big the worlds are if it's all more of the same five biomes? If anything, that just adds to the tedium because you might have to cross hundreds of miles just to move between a couple of your different settlements.
>>724712451Genuinely one of the worst games I've ever played.Every year, the community gets fucked by content droughts or increasingly shameless monetization, but then the devs write an apology letter and everyone forgets about it until the next time
>>724712451Final fantasy 2. It sucks I hate it
>>724712451You don't need me to tell you that it's dogshit.
>>724720532Based anon! This shit sucks!>DEI shit LOL, it didn't have DEI shit last time I played. This addition makes the game even worse and shittier than before.
>>724719943The first year to year and a half after release was so mismanaged and filled with blatant lies that it's hard to give the slightest shit about it. VT2 is still the better game, despite them basically copying the whole thing over to DT and then somehow making it worse than VT2's launch despite already fixing a ton of shit that took them years to patch in DT.

>>724718783Lots of little things.Maps are huge, but devoid of non-mandatory events or things to explore.Due to the way the game is set-up, you'll be constantly backtracking across this huge map..You are stuck with a tag-a-long like the first game, but he never-ever shuts up.None of your choices meaningfully effect anything.Its the same supernatural force as the first game, so the mystery element is non-existent if you've played the first game.The biggest fault is that the story is simply uninteresting, by the end compounding boredom and annoyance had obliterated any semblance of immersion and investment I might have had..Its Oxenfree again. Same content spread over five times the space.>>724718271I played both.I liked the first significantly more than the second.

>>724719642everyone on /v/ is telling you that the base game is whack. watch a video on youtube on how to do DLC dungeon lvl 1. its like 30min set up thats worth. after you finish DLC you can rush through the base game for the story bits

DOOM: The Fart Ages... This game has no depth and only fast-paced parry slop. It really is a "DOOM for the masses" game. I'm glad I never bought it and only played it with a free game pass subscriptionEscape from Tarkov. Made by shitty scammer russians that don't play their own game
>>724712451I like these kind of threadsyou can tell there's genuine HATE or disappointment coming from every post yet all of them stay on topicnice and civil
>>724721485I agree that the story is kinda ehh and overall uninteresting, but I did like that part on the 747 with that one terrorist guy you were ordered to execute and agent Navarre. However, I do think the gameplay in the first half of the game is fun, before it starts overstaying its welcome and getting tedious in the later parts of the game.
>>724713837I honestly think killing harder enemies should give more "points" relative to the effort. The bigger guys counting as 2 kills, the small mecha counting as 5 kills, etc. That'd fix that entire issue. I can forgive it a bit because you can brain off and go>Lmao go fast pew pew What isn't fixable is the later level design. Late game it's just floating small rocks and basically just hopping from rock to rock with no real variance other than "this rock hurts you if you land on it".The final climb was a massive chore though. That wasn't fun or a challenge it was just a chore.
>>724712451Far Cry 3Played it back on release, loved itTried to replay it a year ago and oh boy, what a fucking boring piece of shit game it wasIt's kinda baffling that mindless consoomer retards supported Ubisoft for so long that they managed to barely avoid bankruptcy and sell out to Tencent in 2025, 12 years overdue since their last good game
>>724719603The game expects you to play smart whilst simultaniously sending you back to the same dungeon you just cleared 3 times for tiny upgrades (if any), while having things like bandit enemies that will kill you in 5 turns (your dead if two people attack at once) and then dropping a flail at 4/100 durability that's 3x worse than yours and sells for nothingIt needs more content, first and more balancing after that
>>724714984The Bro Team drinking streams were pure kino, though >are you fucking insane I was eating those lesbeans
War Thunder, you should play Ace Combat (arcade) or DCS (real sim).
>>724722725AgreedIt starts to fall off really badly after Vaas, and South Rook Island is the most boring section of the game
>>724720556Didn't they just have a community to vote to nuke treasure hunter and nearly all MTX items?I mean that's not enough to bring me back because I don't care for the game but that seems like a good step.
>>724712451I got shilled this game by some anon here and it was the most frustrating shit ever. I Wanna Be The Guy level design in a game where that's not even the fucking point.I did finish it but holy fuck it has so much wasted potential.
Inquisitor. I don't regret beating it, but between getting all of my saves corrupted, how long it was and the combat I would recommend most avoid it. There are some who would like it though.
Years ago this shit was popular as a meme multiplayer co-op game.But it's just full of early southpark style bad humor that find a joke then runs it into the ground, while the game itself is just grindy as fuck to actually progress with how quickly enemies become bullet sponges.Never buy into the>This shit was popular a few years ago and is like $2 now

Labyrinth of Refrain: Coven of Dusk.Awful dungeon design, awful UI (in a genre where bad UI is often a given, this was particularly bad), and boring combat. The pleasant visual design seems to be the only real draw. I didn't find the story worth writing home about. I cannot speak to Galleria or whatever its sequel is called, I didn't want to try it after the bad taste Coven of Dusk left in my mouth.>>724718636I agree with this anon, Stoneshard looks really cool and has a lot of great individual pieces, but it is choppy and tedious to play. It very much feels like an "Idea Guy" driven game where there's a good vision but lacks sufficient execution
>>724723656How did you manage to have a bad time with BG3?
Red Faction Guerilla. I got it for free and I still felt robbed
>>724724318Just couldn't get into the gameplay, wish they still had demos
Omori is the biggest waste of time on the planet because not only is the gameplay absolute ass and drags out for far too long, but the story is completely deflated by the "twist" ending. Any retard that feels bad for the main character is a soulless husk of a human hiding behind their mental illness as a shield.
>>724719603NTA but I agree with him. It's far too unforgiving. I hate to say "durr hurr dark souls" but imagine that level of difficulty or at least the fact that any enemy can kill you with relative ease + permadeath. It's convoluted in all the wrong ways. It is not enjoyable even from a masochistic sense. It's purely tedium.
>>724712451The recent harry potter game. No clue what I was thinking. Pretty sure I grabbed it in a sale.
Omori. I recommend it if you're into Evangelion and are gay. For me, it overemphasizes emotions and it's message. I unironically cringed every 10 minutes. I will never listen to anime recommendations again.
assfaggots its the worst game ever created
>>724724582I think gameplay was okay and the game even has a "bad end" route where you skip the story and get rewarded with extra content and harder bosses.
>>724724846also this
>>724724414Agreed. The gameplay (if you specifically mean the combat) is awful. And I say this as someone who has enjoyed DoS 1 and 2 quite a lot. BG3's combat is abysmal. Doesn't help that the G/UI is atrocious, too. That chicken scratch "artstyle" for spells/skills etc is ugly.
>>724723503Grindy? I just replayed it and didnt need to grind at any real time
World of Warcraft (any version)Vanilla is the only version really worth playing and even then it's nothing but a treadmill. I had more fun with Runescape as far as MMOs go
>>724712451Cultist SimulatorThis game is probably the most tedious fucking game I have ever played in my life. I beat it a single time when I went into it completely blind and it took me about 30 hours and holy fuck was it so not worth it. The idea seems cool: Having to manage a bunch of different moving parts while simultaneously trying to figure out what the fuck you should be doing; but in practice it's actually very very dull and generally has you repeating the same motions over and over just to hope the game randomly gives you what you need to progress. Also the OST fucking sucks because all of the songs just repeat over and over until you're literally so sick of them you turn the music off. End game is even fucking worse because dread builds pretty quick considering you're just constantly reading books and summoning shit so you can explore tougher and tougher challenges; your entire run could just end because of a single bad dread timing. The game forces you to also manage money and work for SOME fucking reason even though you're leading a cult of like 20 people who would gladly die for you, but having them give you money is apparently not in the cards. Which means you need to waste your work slot endlessly grinding money instead of actually progressing the game, because you also need money to buy more books to progress. Terrible, terrible system.Didn't play any of the DLC and never will because I doubt it will be any better.
>>724721659>pokemon sunUnironically killed whatever interest in Pokemon I had left at the time of playing it. Felt miserable to play, and none of my friends who played it liked it enough to make teams for friendly matches either.
Bought Steam Marines for like $1 and still feel ripped off. I play some janky indie shit and even then it’s just so abysmally bad on so many fronts.Also has a sequel that inexplicably costs $25 lol.

>>724725613What specifically? I thought it a good game overall, but if I'm to replay it I'm skipping that weird middle of the game shit they do where you play through each character's arc. It kills the pacing for a while and some of them are bad, like that gay guy's arc.

>>724715251I just replayed this week and cannot disagree with this opinion more, 2 is better, but koriban, manan and dantooine are all great worlds, most of the characters have decent writing and delivery, I won't refute the controls, they aren't the highlight of the game, but I'd still consider it within the top 10 star wars games ever made.
>>724725859>normal mode too easy>hard isnt too hard, but a grindfest, mathematically impossible to beat without grinding for like 20 hours>boring characters>ear bleedingly bad, and repetitive music>story was okay i guess
>>724726050Yeah, that's all more-or-less true. It's for sure a game I wouldn't want to play when I'm keyed up at all, but instead rather the opposite, where it's a comfortable and reliably easy ride. And this holds true for any modern JRPG really, especially DQ as a whole.
>>724720532kind of agree. i find these terraria-likes (starbound and core-keeper) all kind of mediocre. i really wish someone would make a 3D terraria clone at this point, that's something i'm surprised hasn't been attempted yet.

I avoided all internet spoilers because it was clear from all the porn I'd be able to be spoiled the moment I asked anything about the gameI found out the game sucks and no fanartist who played it would draw porn of an unlikeable they/them trans characterI was several years late to the party so that was even worse

>>724727820Let me give him his (you), bros. Let the rest of us carry on in peace. Don't take the bait.
it's kind of hard cause i like a couple of the things this game does and i did have fun but the negatives are starting to really outweigh the positives>first off not even a fucking madou game, no first person dungeon crawling or even a more standard rpg like saturn, and the characters that do come back don't amount to much despite the fact it was originally being billed as madou 4 and the concept art shown was only of the old cast>repetitive dungeons that are technically procedurally generated kind of like a mystery dungeon game or something, but it's usually the same couple room chunks over and over with later dungeons just having traps haphazardly placed everywhere>enemy variety blows, each chapter only introduces one new type of enemy (and usually it's just recolors of the previous chapter's boss because for some reason they wanted a puzzle and dragons type chart, it's literally the same) and there's only really 2-3 unique enemy formations for that chapter, elemental enemies also barely differ aside from maybe one attack that uses said element>get all your partners by chapter 1 and despite it sometimes seeming like it'll add more, you're stuck with them for the whole game unless it takes away someone all of two times for not even that much timeprobably expected considering it's an idea fucktory game but there just isn't much for someone looking for an rpg unless you're a superfan of madou/puyo.
>>724723139Yeah, but that's more because the EU loot box regulations are coming soon.The poll is mostly for show because there's no way to vote against it and the bar is extremely low (100k votes within 2 weeks)The game has other issues like progression being trivialized, low quality updates/storytelling and completely immersion breaking cosmetics. At this point, I've also stopped caring and I'll never give Jagex another penny
>>724727872the hero we dont deserve
>>724723503I find the people you'd play this with are the people who drop the game immediately and not complete it, FOTM slop but oldschool with obsessive details that are blink-and-miss and you sound retarded or childish if you point them out :/
Paradise Killer is awful.The basic gameplay is you run around gathering clues and at any point you want you can go to the courtroom to make your case. Which sounds cool, maybe, except there's also a journal that points you to leads you haven't finished exploring. So either you intentionally end the game early ignoring the glowing text that you're missing stuff, or you keep following the glowing text until you've got everything... and now the case is brain-dead trivial because I guess it was designed around maybe the player missing some clues. The courtroom is supposed to be the most exciting place in a detective game! Not rubber-stamping busywork.Also the fast travel costs a finite non-renewable resource. Also you're part of the evil faction, but your dialogue options sometimes forget to give you an evil option.On the other hand the worldbuilding is genuinely 10/10 so there's that. And after beating the game you can shoot any character you don't like which is nice.

I went into it ignoring the shitposting and was really dissappointed. Its pretty much just a VN and while the depth of dialogue choices is novel the actual story itself was a mess and didn't know what it wanted to be. I think the only way to enjoy this is to turn off your brain and play it like an interactable youtube poop where you say random bullshit to NPCs.

>>724729663>borderlands 2I highly recommend disabling/muting voices/VO in those games. They go from mediocre to okay games, but more-so, go from okay to decent with friends. So you just hear your friends (if comms) and the guns. Play your own music, never read or hear any of the dogshit memeland writing.
>>724725303yep. strong concept and lore but atrocious game. let someone make this that actually enjoys playing video games.

>>724729663It's so funny to see people liking Borderlands 2 now. I think it comparing so favorably to BL3 in every possible way is the main reason people are so stuck on such a mediocre game
>>724730615>nowIt was liked when it was new too. Pre-sequel seemed to have dropped off.
>>724720096Wh on God's green flat Earth ever recommended GBA Baldur's Gate?
>>724716592I'm playing it at the moment, just half an hour in. What's wrong with it?
>>724730058>>724730615i think i couldve gotten over the writing, i mean, its not more cringe than say Dungeons 3, that is the worst writing ive ever seen from a non-slavic developerbut the thing is, Dungeons 3 has good gameplay, and like i said, after 4 hours, i didnt get a single good gun to shoot in Borderlands 2, nothing like a Halo Magnum, or a FEAR shotgun, or Doom shotgunand then it hit me, 50 bazillion guns sounds good on paper, but how many of them are actually good? probably less than 30%
I think of Golden Sun.
>>724730859I don't remember that being the case. I could've sworn /v/ generally saw BL > BL2 until recently, but I could be wrong.
This felt straight up bad after playing hollowknight and blasphemous / blasphemous 2. Weeb style cutscenes and voice acting, slog of a map, upgrade system filled with "daggers deal +0.5% more damage when raining" miniscule rewards. I didn't play long enough to see if you unlock a dash that lets you dodge through enemies, but every miniboss just pinned you against a wall so you could only hope to out DPS most of them.>>724716592Why?
>>724714597Care to elaborate? Was just about to pull the trigger on this.
>>724731758I feel like anime games get a huge boost from aesthetic alone. So you see two different games of the same genre, and they both have the same rating. You open them up and find that the non-anime one is leagues better, like a good 2 to 3 points better on a 1 to 10 scale than it's anime counterpart.I even like anime, but not enough to take a serious quality dip.
>>724732263I'm convinced Rabi-Ribi is a 3/10 that only gets praised for le bunny girl meme. It's such a garbage fucking game.
>>724731758I played this for like 10 minutes, which was not giving it a fair shake at all, but it just immediately had such a derivative and uninspired feeling to it that made me not want to continue with it. I don't require that every game I play reinvents the wheel, and even in the Metroidvania genre there are some games that I would consider pretty derivative and overly familiar that I still enjoyed overall, but there was just something about this that immediately put me off.
>>724712451read it in his voice
>>724732258not my screenshot but the game kept putting one of the mini bosses of the zone in the starting area of zone 2 that has little cover, faggot snipes you from offscreen and he tracks you 1-1 whilst the top guns from the previous zone were doing like 1/15 damage to himliterally first time i walk to into zone 2 he's spawned in front and 2-shots methe game is standard extraction format, go out loot shit extract and slowly upgrade your gear/skills. I usually don't play extraction shooters so I thought I'd try it, big mistake apparently
>>724732451I do think Rabi-Ribi gets a boost from that, but it's still an enjoyable enough game with some novelty. I think it receives more praise than it may have otherwise because people think it's funny and charming that a game that looks like that would be surprisingly fun to play, but it's still a fairly good game. I don't even like the artstyle, though I can enjoy cute anime artstyle I just don't care for Rabi-Ribi's specifically.
>>724727278>Devil May Cry>Azure Striker Gunvolt 2>Megaman Zero 2>Megaman Zero 3These games are kino thoughever
I'm not a big Final Fantasy fan in general, but I really like DMC and I like JRPGs in general, so a game with a JRPG's structure but combat in the vein of DMC sounded fun to me, but I was genuinely appalled by how uninspired and dull this game was at every almost turn. The polish and spectacle of it is strong, but that just makes it feel sad that plenty of people who I'm sure are talented put those talents towards making this derivative shit. I would also be hard pressed to think of one game I've ever played with worse sidequests.

Skip Dino Crisis 3. I heard the negative buzz around this game but figured people were just being babies about fixed camera angles, but these seriously are the worst camera angles in any game ever maybe. You'll be shooting at offscreen dinos like 85% of the time, you legit almost never get to actually see where you're going. There's also a disappointing lack of variety in enemies and environments, and the whole thing is just a bunch of backtracking anyway so it feels very repetitive.

>>724734614Is it supposed to be a hard game? I played it for a while early this year but I found it pretty boring. Early on in the run I found some orange-tier weapon that just 1-shot just about everything on the screen and freeze what didn't die, and it was spammable, no cost or resource. Like what the fuck. And you only got stronger from there, after a few hr I just uninstalled.
Mario Kart World. It's by no means and bad game and there's a lot to love about it, but the way it constantly contradicts it's own design is so bizarre and don't feel like the kind of thing Nintendo would put out.>empty open world with nothing meaningful to do in it>90% of races are spent on boring intermission courses>item spam is awful and there's no reason to ever attempt to frontrun>most character unlocks are behind monotonous item RNG>updates that have only made the game worse since launchYou're better of playing Mario Kart 8 Deluxe or Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds than Mario Kart World, it's crazy to me how people are just okay with Nintendo justifying the game being $80 because it was in development hell for seven years.
>Psychonauts 1 & 2This is one of those games what would make a good TV show rather than a game. The platforming and combat is dogshit. You run around talking to every npc hoping it leads to the next story beat with wack ass gameplay and a decent to trash cutscene.And these are supposed to be the good games, imagine how trash the VR Psychonauts is.The best way to experience Psychonauts is a youtube playthrough because you have a skip button.Lets be honestly the only interesting thing about Psychonauts is the concept of it.

This thread is like a living memo on why I should never take any of your opinions seriously
they made the gameplay brain dead with bad balancing around that stupid super witch power up. which then allowed them to make shitty enemies that have to be fought with that shitty power up. massive L

>>724732258nta and i don't recommend this game, i fell for the cutesy duck graphics and was looking for no story fun gameplay, the controls felt too janky and you can do really quickly with no warning, maybe that's how extraction shooters are but not my bag of chips
Core Keeper. It's a top down Terraria knockoff where you have almost no inventory space and everything has durability that wears down extremely quickly. Resources to repair stuff are absolutely everywhere so it serves no purpose besides annoying you and being tedious. There is an absurd amount of item bloat, with many being completely redundant or pointless (a billion different weapons that are functionally identical and have worse stats than the Slime Sword you get within 20 minutes of starting the game for killing the first boss, literally over 1000 different cooking recipes but 900 of them are redundant and have the exact same overlapping buffs cancelling each other out). This compliments the lack of inventory space VERY well. I timed myself to see how fast it takes to fill my inventory during an expedition once and it was 72 seconds.There are lite Factorio elements where you can automate with robotic arms and conveyors, which makes resources even more trivial. The game has an annoying hunger meter that runs out way too fast and does nothing except give you a small buff when almost full, and drains your health when empty. It's pointless since you can get literally 1000+ mushrooms within the first half an hour of the game, and make automated mushroom farms that produce infinite amounts of them very early on, plus enemies regularly drop food too and you can fish in 1x1 water block for infinite food too.Combat is what you'd expect from a top down game, but it's largely a joke. I have, from random drops alone, an axe that twoshots every non boss enemy in the game and has a massive amount of range, and a staff that calls down meteor strikes that kills everything, sets it on fire AND poisons it. Bosses are extremely easy, especially if you actually bother engaging with the rpg aspect of the game - I applied 8 different buffs from food before the last boss I fought, got him to his second phase in 3 hits, and killed him un 18 seconds total while not getting hit once.
>>724736364OK, gay.
>>724715973After I heard they were taking a more action packed approach with 8 I didn't even bother. It seems like Crapcom still can't figure out why people like RE
>>724715973Chris being a massive asshole for absolutely no reason except they wanted some stupid whatatwist shit where he seemingly murders Mia and refuses to explain is hilarious to me. There is absolutely zero reason for him to not explain anything to Ethan.Also, they kill off the vampire milf, the only good thing about that game, waaaaaay too early on.

GTA IV. It was cool for the time in some instances but even then people thought it was a downgrade in customization, and weapon selection. I suppose that's what's they were going for as it's the most narrative heavy GTA and that is why I don't recommend it. Also the character models are just fucking ugly.

>>724737314They vastly underestimated how popular she would get.
>>724735628It gets harder the more boss cells you use. My experience with the game is that it's very swingy. If you find a weapon with a shit ton of attributes, you're going to win a run provided that you don't fuck up, but if the game only gives you shit or stuff that doesn't synergize with the DoTs you can apply the run will feel like ass.

>>724715973>bad mix between 4 and 7That's what I have been saying from the start, they took the weak base of 7 and tried to graft the action gameplay of prior games on top, so the end result is just kind of slow and bland. Also storywise, the four lords seem cool and fun, but the most time you spend with any of them is Lady D, and its like 2 hours at most, it feels like they had a lot of ideas for them, but they just got cut to shit. Also just not a fan of Ethan, not that RE has super deep characters or anything, but I just think he looks lame, Leon and Chris at least look cool. It's not terrible or anything, just kinda boring, and it feels like half of a game, I still think 7 is the worst mainline RE though.

Probably Bravely Default. It's supposed to be a spiritual successor to FFV, but it ends up feeling much more restrictive and grindy. Stats and abilities are tied to job levels. You can't just use higher level magic you have if you, for example, switch to black mage AND you'll hit like a wet noodle unless you bother to level up the job. Abilities also don't give stats unlike FFV. You can't have a white mage punch things for any decent damage even if you equip the right abilites since their strength is low. You can't have a black mage with decent healing even if you equip white magic since you don't get the wisdom to make it worth it. Blue magic(vampire) is gotten way too late in the game for it to be fun. Bosses are "harder" in that there are fewer ways to beat them creatively. There are still overpowered strategies. You can abuse certain jobs to make yourself invincible, gain a lot more turns, and do loads of damage, but it doesn't feel like you have a lot of room for strategies that aren't generally strong. There's also an end game slog where you have to beat the bosses you've already beaten several times in a time loop.

>>724746347well, if it makes you sleep better at night thinking its all bait, go ahead, i said my piece
Xenoblade Chronicles 2. A sequel that took everything that was great about the original game and threw it out the window. Plenty of people have lampooned the juvenile writing, but that could have been forgiven if the game had actually been solid mechanically, however it was a complete mess on that part as well. The combat was dumbed down to mostly spamming QTEs and following an extremely linear elemental combo as your skill selection is very limited, hell you don't even fully unlock all the mechanics until like 80% into the game and at that point the game has long overstayed its welcome and you just want it to end. The game can't even fall back on its exploration being a strong suit as exploration is extremely disincentivized as they decided to populate aggressive over-leveled enemies off the beaten path with little to no reward for going there as most of your power is gated behind progressing the story. The zones are also much less impressive compared to the previous games and turn completely linear towards the end.Then there is the awful ass blade gacha (in a single played game by the way) and field skills being tied to them. Good luck getting a proper team grinded out (and god forbid you want to actually get all of them) and backtracking for their skills and even after you manage all that the constant swapping around your loadout constantly to use their field skills.Oh yeah and you can't jump in combat anymore because they must have fired all the competent devs.There's probably more, but I've tried to block out my memories of the awful experience I had with the game. As it just feels insulting to call it a sequel when it's so clearly insulting to everything the previous game did.
>If you reply I win. >Redditor replies instantly. Holy shit. Hook, line, and sicker, we caught ourselves a stinker.
>>724747238you can thank the fact that asians live in areas so dense they spend 40% of their life on public transport. gacha aids is here to stay. but westoids cant claim moral high ground since 80% of their new successful new shit is rogue lites with gambling mechanics
>>724747428If you use another tranime reaction image you suck black cocks.
>>724747238>Play it>Writing is actually awful>Gameplay is mediocre>"No bro you gotta wait until the mechanics open up like 20 hours into the game">Ok>It DOES in fact get better, but still feels limiting because your combat options are limited by winning at a gacha>By the time I had a comfortable amount of options to build teams with, it was already the end of the game>tfw wasted like 75 hours playing it to completionWhy did I do that
>>724747458It's not just the gacha it could have been forgivable if it was just one bad mechanic, hell even the original game had god awful side quests, but it was forgivable as the rest of the game wasn't so full of awful design decisions.>>724747660Yeah, that about sums up my overall experience as well.
>>724747428>sicker
>>724712451deadlockit tricks you into thinking that it's a good game and then you get to mid to high level lobbies and it turns into the most deathbally shitfest a moba could be
Penny pinching princess, it's a beat-em-up that has you making shit with a calculator to increase the strength of your attacks and buy units, so everything is expensive and overpriced and expects you to grind for coins, but also makes you waste coins to keep playing. It's one of those games that look charming but are too tedious to complete
Fire Emblem Three Houses sorta grew on me during my first playthrough but by the time it did I was 45 hours in and sorta realizing all of my beef with it in better detail.>If you are not interested in the sales pitch of running a knight academy and teaching/grooming a bunch of teenage students simply do not bother, I think even fans of the game can agree on that>Said premise requires that all of said students start in blank slate classes and have minimal unique traits so you can mold them into whatever you want, meaning the game basically has no unit identity for the students>No weapon triangle and no class restrictions on who can use martial weapons or bows makes a lot of the weapons feel basically interchangeable until the late game where class skills make it matter more, this is mostly a neutral point but I don't like the weapon types being so similar, personally.>The majority of support conversations are either "I'm such a terrible person because I had to steal bread to feed my family but I swear I'll change" or "My life is so hard because I'm a prince/princess boohoo" and it gets very tiring. Some characters are not like these or are a little more nuanced but the cast is on the whole my least favorite from an FE I've played (7,8,9,13,14,15,16,17).>Some people beef with the FEs that have self-insert protags and I have a lot to say about that but Three Houses makes me agree with these people. Dimitri is way better of a protagonist than Byleth and we don't get to see the game through his eyes. It's not even like the other avatar games where the player character is still as written as dudes like roy and ike, all byleth gets are player choice dialogue and implications from other characters that he's basically soulless most of the time.>the game is fucking ugly, absolutely putrid, I hate that KT made the first HD FEI played it because I kept seeing people post cute Lysithea art. She sucks.
>>724715973>IM DOING THIS FOR YOUR OWN GOOD ETHAN>*sends him up to fight magneto in the mecha he built which is what directly leads to Ethan's death*I cannot believe how fucking stupid this story was.

>>724728858I wanted to like it. But most of the characters aren't interesting, the pacing is hella slow, the combat is slow, bosses are health sponges unless you have their answers, and the story should've ended 3/4ths of the way through with the more interesting reveal of Olivar and Shadar rather than the more boring white witch. I took a break halfway through the game because I was just bored. Didn't even bother with post game.
>>724741984I'm glad there's somebody else out there that didn't like KotOR 2 but enjoyed the first one.
>>724739398agreed. glad i played the server test for free instead of blowing money on this trash.
You must choose, anonSpend your life fighting uphill to learn obscure rules, gatekept by an online community of autists who say "gitgud", act like it's high culture to cheat and have a tendency to create pointless things for bragging rights, but eventually be rewarded with learning how to codeOr have a harder less rewarding time playing a bad simulator with they/them characters being friends with characters named Ahmed
>>724747238I like Xenoblade 2. I still like 1 more, but I can see why people say 2 is the better game. I understand that Takahashi as a creative likes to go a completely separate way with every new project, and I respect that. What I can’t get over is 3, it felt like a half assed attempt to make a sequel that didn’t need to exist. Everything about it felt sterile and lacking imagination.
>>724751126I've played a bunch of colony and base building games like dorf fortress, but this was kinda too shitty for me
>>724731195>>724731758not him, but the first half of the game is great. music, visuals, gameplay, etc. then in the second half of the game, it turns into some "non-linear" shit where you redo the levels over again while switching between 8-bit and 16-bit. but it's not fun, and the new content and dialogue drastically decreases for the rest of the game. it's not terrible but it is really disappointing
>>724732451it's not garbage. 6/10 probably. but you are right that it's nowhere near as good as its fans would have you believe.

>>724712451Guild Wars 1. Holy shit did my friend hype it up but it is a slow, boring, grind of a game where you just kill trash mobs to collect garbage to trade for gear to kill more trash mobs. He spent so long hyping up the story but I have never seen such a directionless schizo paste of random popular tropes from the early 2000's just thrown together without any plan. I fucking tried to force myself through it for hours just to entertain them since they offered to play with me but I had to call it quits after we cleared the first part of the game and killed the Lich.He kept saying it gets better when you get stronger NPC's to fight for you but that's just promising to automate more of the boring grind...and if a selling point for your game is that you don't have to play it as much, then it's not a fun game to play and should be avoided in the first place.Music was good but that is the only positive thing about it.
>>724731758the movement in this game is really bad for a genre that is all about movement, the dash feel bad, the jump feel bad and even the walking feel really bad to use

>>724756947Explaining why Timmy's Dad hates him despite doing nothing wrong?
>>724712451>unfair flipsi know thats what the title is, but considering the skewed chance rates, i figured it was just talking about that. oh no, those rates arent accurate, or at least not honest in the generation. it likes to tell you how unlikely it is to get 10 heads in a row, but it will gladly give you 8-12 tails in a row repeatedly. even once you increase the heads chance to 55%, you still get retarded streaks of tails just to waste your time, and only get incidental 3 heads 1 tails to round out the percentage afterwards. the title was the only honest thing. it absolutely does not operate on pure rng.
Don't play Duskers for the story, it sets up many mysteries and resolves all zero of them so enjoy playing forever while everything around you continues to degrade to shit.
>>724721812>>724721659Hard disagree, 3 is the only Persona I can even stomach a replay, 4 is boring as fuck especially on NG+ and 5's bullshit storytelling overstays its welcome on the fucking first playthrough.
The demo makes it feel like it's going to be a Josef Fares style double character puzzle game. The actual game is just a series of fetch quests in areas that are way too big so they take forever to do. There are mini games but they are ultra rough. The story is really weird because ultimately nothing happens. Nothing really gets resolved by the end and the main mysteries presented are unresolved. Speaking of the ending, its ends on the most depressing way possible to the point where I was tempted to email the devs about what they were going for with it.So yeah don't buy it.
>>724712451Enter the GungeonI hate that game, it is not worth your time.
>>724721485What would you call good voice acting? JC's monotone fits thematically with an(ex) government murderhobo, sam carter manderly old guys good enough, anna and gunther james bond stereotypes, paul more mature jc, jock, smuggler, computer guy not bad, but the secondaries and npcs are pretty bad, homeless are pretty funny
>>724712451Doom 3. As soon as you realize that the entire "horror" part of the game is putting blood on the walls and every door you open has a imp ready to pounce at you the horror/fear goes to zero and its just more annoying than anything else.
>>724756892zero has awful combat, kiwami fixes everything wrong with itkiwami 2 is the worst game in the series though so do that as a palate cleanser

Metaphor: Refantazio, especially if you have played Persona 5 before.It recycles tons of story beats, the writing is somehow even worse, dungeon designs after first one are horrible, the game is ugly as fuck, and characters are dumb.It's one of the games I seriously regret finishing.
>>7247160471000% for snowrunnerThe narrow field of tism required to extract any level of enjoyment is so hyper specific I'm surprised it keeps getting dlcsTyped by someone with 1500 hours
>>724722725This was unironically my first experience with Far Cry, and I made it my only one. The gameplay was just remarkably shallow, but the thing that really killed me about it was the story was intensely "Man, didn't the 80s just SUCK??!" which is the opposite of what made me get it in the first place.
>>724712451Dead By Daylight is genuinely one of the few games that I think nobody should subject themselves to.You don't PLAY it, you SUBJECT YOURSELF to it, and it's abysmal dogshit game design.League of Legends is at least free, and doesn't require you to pay MORE money to even begin to play the meta.Behavior deserves nothing, and the only reason that they continue to thrive is because there's nothing else on the market that even comes close without immediately shooting itself in the foot after a month (and usually by falling into the same problem DBD does where the Killer is less threatening than the Survivors).I've put over 500 hours and over 100 dollars into this game, don't play it.Please, I beg you.Go buy Killing Floor 2 or something, it's on sale for like 3 dollars still.
>>724731436It was liked enough on the site enough to have a /vg/ general for a while, even played with people there
Any Kingdom Hearts game that isn't KH2FM or Birth By SleepYeah that's right faggot I like BOTH games and am not divided and conquered by the Osaka Tokyo team debate
>>724731214>Dungeons 3Yeah, I'm a fan of that genre - but the memey pop-culture overload Calypso slipped into during 2 that it uses as a plot is obnoxious. I still like the game, but it's in spite of the writing and plot and cutscenes.There's a reason I prefer War for the Overworld.
It took me about 2-3 attempts at playing it before I figured out why I hated it so much. The game is just a bunch of practical jokes on the player, and then as soon as you learn the gimmick, the fun falls away and it's just Korean grinding job simulator. And the lore kinda sucked, but I'm willing to chalk that up to the bad translation.
>>724712451>Persona 5Don't believe the hype, it's not an RPG, it's an 80 hour visual novel with a very shallow 20 hour RPG stappled on top.>Digimon Cyber Sleuth seriesLow bydget Persona clone, extremely text heavy, secondary missions are all the same.>No Man's SkyIt's cool if you just want a time-wasting pointless resource-gathering game but don't go into it if you're expecting anything resembling a story, it's essentially just Animal Crossing in space.>Silent Hill fPlays nothing like a Silent Hill game, shitty souls-like, the story is not about heavy trauma but about muh patriarchy.
>>724737995Xenogears is conceptually great but the execution is completely ass, the game is unfinished and the half that is technically finished plays like shit, the mech controls are fucking horrible, the battle system has no depth and the technical aspect is dismal.Just play Xenoblade 3, it's essentially the same story but it is actually finished.

Some of them I was pressured into playing by others, other games are ones that I wanted to like but just ended up hating them more for trying to push myself to a non-existent "aha!" good part that would make me love it.
>>724747660My biggest gripe with Xenoblade 2 is how meh it feels compared to 1, 3 and X, everything in those seems to have a purpose and an idea behind it, 2 is the only one that feels like half of it is filler, like they came up with the titans first and rhen realized there was no plot-related reason to go there so they just made it up, pretty much nothing between Gormott and Indol matters one bit.I heard recently that they were already conceptualizing 3 while making 2 and it honestly checks out, 2 really feels like they only made it because they needed to establish the origin of Agnus like 1 establishes the origin of Keves.

>>724760089>as soon as you learn the gimmick, the fun falls awayI completely disagree>chalk that up to the bad translationIt has since been fixed
>>724749714What did this update do?
>>724762780>>as soon as you learn the gimmick, the fun falls away>I completely disagreeI should clarify at least one thing if we're to disagree: I mean as soon as you learn the gimmick *per gimmick. Each gimmick is fun individually, but then as soon as you learn it, that particular gimmick just stops being fun cause you know everything about it.
>>724761408Also, the Egyptian girl people fawn over only shows up very late into the game.
>>724712451Let It DieIt's a 10 year old Pay to not be inconvenienced clanky roguelite The Inferno game looked interesting so I decided to try the first entry to the series, this shit is beyond the standard repetitiveness with no real feeling of progressionBeat the first boss, went to the next floor, got gear checked and lost, then realized I had to basically do the same grind as the previous floors but with different tiers of resources and that this is what the whole game is so I dropped it.Please Let It Die, as in don't play this game so it actually dies
Ni no Kuni is dogshitDo not play it
>>724763045>originally Superhot (both versions, but only VR got the changes) had story beats where it would make you kill yourself>these were integral to the story and pretty dang cool, big selling point of the game>creator gets really caught up in sensitivity stuff, adds a settings toggle that disables the entire story in case you don't like suicide content>and makes it on by default because it wouldn't be sensitive enough if you had to enable it yourself, right?>actually, you know what? maybe this is still too insensitive>so he removes the option entirely, along with the entire story of the game, just to be EXTRA-SUPER-DUPER sure nobody gets upset by itI'm not exaggerating a word of this by the way. You can see the update post, which still gets daily comments from people seething (justifiably) to this day.https://steamcommunity.com/app/617830/eventcomments/3057365873425174316
>>724722903>BroTeamIs he still around? I thought his channel got nuked. Fate Of vids are like a time capsule at this point.
I hate Firewatch. Maybe it could've been a cozy nature game, but some stupid alcoholic bitch yaks in your ear the whole game. Nothing interesting happens until pretty late in the game, and the payoff isn't that interesting.The premise feels like it should be about being alone but you aren't because of the bitch in your ear. And the game seems to expect you to fall for her.
The GBC Shantae game. Enemies that absorb so many hits is really annoying. It's like they haven't played many side scrolling action games before and only watched a few.
>Published by Don'tNodThat's a red flag right there, ignore the cutsey art style, it's a game about killing a God. Do not buy!
>>724722725>far cry 3I also loved it on release. I don't know if I'd recommend against it but I haven played it since the ps3, though fc4 was not bad from what I played and it didn't seem all that different from 3 mechanically. >it's kinda baffling...Agreed, it's crazy how Ubisoft of all companies gets to coast by with memories of good games 2 gens ago.
>>724764134Im interested
TF2 is honest to god one of the worst time syncs I have put into. With over 4500 hours across console and PC, and the latter half of major updates, I can safely say unless you are playing to join a group or make money on hats, it is a complete waste of time.It was fun for about 1,500 hours. Casual being broken, the community and its drama, Valve not caring about the game and not updating it in 8 years, the only reason you should play it is if you have friends or like different playstyles. Once you get good at it all, there's no reason to go back.
>>724764558there are deaths, slaughter and drinking blood of a deity, race who willing turn themselves into zombies,terminally ill vulpines let themselves to be frozen, criticism of church and faith. It's so bad!
>>724764667>time sync
>>724763803Could extend that to the entire Shantae series lol.
>>724712451That's subjective. I didn't like a bunch of games that other people enjoy. I remember that my friends used to like 25 to life when I was a kid and I absolutely hated the combat.

>>724712451>Kirby Air Ridegame is a checklist simulator if you don't have anyone to play it with, and the actual racing mode is the worst one. Double Dash and F-Zero GX are both much better games.>Mario Power TennisThere's a reason why people only talk about the opening. the actual gameplay is pretty braindead with power shots enabled, to the point where unlocking everything almost felt TOO easy.>Kirby Star Alliesa pretty slow and boring 2D platformer that doesn't have much to offer beyond (good) fanservice for Kirby's belated 25th anniversary. I'd only recommend it if you're a BIG Kirby fan
>>724725458Was thinking about buying dl1 on sale, is it good enough for 10 dollars or dont bother

>>724712451Pokemon
>>724712451Divinity, terrible gameplay, terrible RPG content, horrible writing and main storyResonance of Fate, aggressively stupid bad and half baked in every possible way. Just go play Nier

>>724717538This was in my radar and now I can play it.What is wrong with it?
>>724719757>T. Cain is tedious as fuckThat little fucking shit is what made me stop chasing the achievements.>that's a guaranteed run with multiple characters at once.Just open the console if you are going to be a faggot.Why even pretend that counts?
>>724766238Do you like parkouring fast, dropkicking zombies off roofs, melee combat with increasingly far-fetched modded weapons, or feeling like a zombie killing machine when levelled? I'd pay 10 bucks for DL1.
>>724737813It is the horse meme.Starts very strong and you get the feel this is a top notch production for an indie studio.Great music, ambience, dialogue, voice acting.Solid gameplay, cool art, and you get teased by further weapon choices.The story starts as an intrigue.And then it gradually turns into shit.I mean the music is the only thing that is all around great.The ambience is good.But the dialogue, the wit, the gameplay is just deteriorates.And pretty much ends like a Zelda CD-i game.It also comes from a time hack writers would use tumblr and get they idea that making a character gay or bi automatically gave them depth and nuance.It is a tranny game since I have seen ZERO women show interest in this.Meanwhile Resident Evil still has genuine biological female fans.
>>724767189>It is a tranny game since I have seen ZERO women show interest in this.>Meanwhile Resident Evil still has genuine biological female fans.I've heard some pretty embarrassing criteria for not liking a game before but "Girls have to like it!" is a new low.
All three games are not worth your time.
>>724767251I think theyre pretty good, the problem is its the same game 3 times.
>>724767249The game's obviously not targeted at men. If women don't like it either that leaves only trannies. I thought he was pretty clear but maybe it's because I played the game (and agree with everything they said).
>>724764667TF2 will never return to its pre-2013 time.The game simply put is not the same game I knew, doesn't have the same feel.People who got good at it; and wouldn't you know it those people are all unironic bronies, diaper furries and trannies, sometimes all 3 of them, are responsible for the actual state where it is a fashion show for mentally ill people.Most classes nowadays are not fun to play.I quit and sold my inventory ages ago, the day /tf2g/ said to me that I could just play the game on unclepedotopia or some furry faggot server and gave me a script to disable all the faggotry from those servers....Like, I just had to quit.Before that, I installed Tf2 every couple of months and then something made me uninstall, that cycle repeated itself except each time I would go on without playing for longer periods of time and have the game installed for shorter periods of time.Last time I played during the pandemic I only played for like a weekend before uninstalling the game.It is so fucking gay.
>>724767307Literally forced franchise, about suffering furry children. Surely this will sell like hotcakes!
>>724712451Going through my steam list and these are games I disliked:LA Noire (very frustrating as I really liked the detective genre but this completely lost me from the end of Homicide onwards)Max Payne 3 (it's not a fucking Max Payne game fuck off)Megaman 11 (they had 8 YEARS to shit this out and the main gimmick is just an annoyance)Outer Wilds (refunded this piece of shit)Oneshot (also refunded)Narita Boy (didn't like it. Funny because it's about the same way I feel about the first Tron movie which this basically a game version of)
>>724767398Thank god youre the minority.
>>724767249>>724767398I will expand further.The art style is good but the romantic choices seem to have been pulled from the same inner circle of people who like Steven Universe.Hades turns out to be a big ol softie.Everyone just hugs it out.And Thanatos turns out to be gay, which I guess makes sense because well the greeks were pretty fruity, but he gave me more of a protoman type of vibe before his dialogue changed and if you max out his friendship and you have to if you want the trinket tied to the progression of the game...it is odd.And okay, lets say they want the fujos audience, valid, but I have not seen gamer gurls even talk about this game.Like more women have played Elden Ring than this game and the sequel doubles down on the gay.The art style in the sequel is full fucking tumblr bullshit with greek gods suddenly being black or have vitigilo and all girls look like men. They did not even respect the design of Artemis which was a cutie in the first game.
>>724767398>>724767817The reason you didnt like it is because it actually is targeted at men.
do NOT play bloons or you will become a furrybut personally i dont think its not that completely degenerate to be attracted to monkey girls because humans are technically monkeys i would even argue that being attracted to "cat girls" is more furry compared to attraction to monkeys
>>724712451this dogshit
>>724767843I actually am a furfag and I dont care much for Bloons.Its fine, not a bad game, but the meta being pixel-perfect placement is kind of annoying.
>>724767846pretty good mystery story but its barely a game good world building and interesting side charactersending was very unsatisfying, i feel like it just insists on being esoteric to lazily conclude the entire setting of the story and it contributes to feeling like it just wasted my time and moneyi think its okay if someone gifted it to youbut youre really better off watching a youtube playthrough of it
>>724767831I dunno for that matter let me add Hollow Knight.Hades and Hollow Knight are overhyped and overrated because they came at the EXACT time when not a lot was going on.Hollow Knight is a mid metroidvania.Hades is not even a good roguelite.Most of those reviews come from people with less than 20 hours in.> it actually is targeted at menMegara is the straight romance option and well, would you look at that jaw line.
>>724768447>Megara is the straight romance option and well, would you look at that jaw line.The straight romance option was Dusa.The devs were absolutely pussies for getting bullied around into removing her, but at least their intentions were in the right place.
>>724768664That romance option was a joke taken too far and I am glad it ends up in "let's be friends".Nyx stepping it when it was getting weird was pretty funny.>I know we gods are degens but we have to draw the line somewhere.
Has anyone played atomic heart? I'm 6 hours in and I don't get the hype
>>724712451I figured the game would suck so I torrented it, but even after not paying I felt ripped off. The game was interesting for about 15 minutes, then after an hour I had literally seen everything the game had to show me and knew I'd just be doing the same thing for 9 hours.I genuinely don't understand the people implying it's okay or "fine" because it's fucking not.
>>724757572Literally go play Human Revolution, Adam has got the same monotone detached voice as JC but is actually performed by a professional.
>>724768975>but even after not paying I felt ripped ofI know that feeling>go to Bookman's, a used book/movie/game store>pick out Mega Man X7 for cheap because I like Mega Man and "maybe everyone was exaggerating how bad this game was">as I'm at the cashier, they tell me "congrats you are our 100th customer! your stuff is free"When I started playing through it at home, I realized that nobody was exaggerating
>>724723503You fail to mention that the enemies lack any behavior more advanced than the initial ones, just massively sped up to slap you out of your attacks before you can land them and/or given bullshit like randomly throwing out bombs during their normal animations because you can easily wail on them otherwise. Then you get to the non-standard types like the Beefy ones that are just a pain. It boils down to baiting the shitty AI into an infinite juggle or spamming magic, which also trivializes the middling bosses.Plus one of the worst progression systems in a beat-em-up where experience is gained per-hit, encouraging you to keep enemies as tanky as you can tolerate and punishing you by slowing your progression if you improve your damage to make things easier. Which wouldn't be so bad if the game had a respec, which it still doesn't even though they spent the time, money, and programming to add custom characters and new assets for all the characters.Castle Crashers only gets a pass because it was one of the little-indies-that-could on XBLA, back when that was slightly more than a marketing gimmick, that came from Newgrounds, one of the biggest hubs of user generated content, so there was an air of the scrubs on Web 2.0 being part of the overproduced Games Industry. Bastion is also mediocre and Supergiant never improved past "strong start with good art and audio gimmick that peters out into tedium by midgame" with the exception of Pyre, which just sucked. Super Meat Boy is still good, but I like The End Is Nigh better.
>>724712451>reached bump limitCongrats /v/, I'm looking forward to the next thread
>>724723503Nah faggot, Behemoth games are a treasure of a bygone era.
ESA. No idea why it gets wanked so much. I finished it out of spite.There's like two bosses that were more fun than annoying and they're at the ass-end of the entire game.
>>724760582It's an infamous example of a good show gradually declining in quality until there's not even vestiges of what made it originally entertaining left.
>>724716591Anon just one look at that picture and one will know that its fucking garbage.
>>724712451All of them. They are all bad.
