FLAAAAME WAAAAAAR!!!*grabs pitchforks and torches*RAWR!
WHERE IS QUIBLINAC?
I hate the Zanzibart name because Zanzibar is a real place and I just think of Zanzibar when I read it. I wish the meme had a different name like Smudgewrinkle or something.
>>729607568Holy shit lmao
>>729607568LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!
>>729607568ffffuark... item descriptions have become so deep and immersive...
>>729607568Don't you get it anon, nothing really matters, we're all going to die the world is corrupt and nothing is worth.I hate moral relativism and pessimism
>>729607727I didn't know it was real, just something Kojima thought up for metal gear
>>729607727Nah, Zanzibar is a place Hideo Kojima made up for Metal Gear.
>>729607568All that is a good thing actually, thoeverbeit
>>729607568Damn I'm trying not to bust up at work that shit is so real
>>729607568Focus, M
>>729607727"Zanzibar" means "nigger beach" in Persian, if it's any consolation.
for me™ it's this post
>>729608278corny

>>729607568yeah from has shit tier quest systemits garbageI pirate their games since DS2 and I just spawn what I want with cheat engine, thoughbeist so
>>729607568The useless shit in dark souls is never that specific. It's always more like "Ring: Improves full health healing"
Recovered? This is a feature. Nobody wants writing or story in games.>mentally ill faggots talk about their schizo nonsense story for a game>people who like the game play the game>all discussion appears to be mentally ill faggot's schizo lore rambling>games cater to mentally ill scizo faggot ramblingTale as old as current year.Your dick will never recover.
>>729608039Thats Zanzibarland. Zanzibar/Sansibar exists.
>>729607568>autist makes a 45 minute video explaining the lore of this character
>>729608918i would have never played souls games if it wasnt for cheat engine, i would donate them a couple of bucks first before buying the next fromsoft game
>>729608000>>729608039american education everyone
>>729607727Hey, asshole, I happen to be from Smudgewrinkle.
>>729607568I hate that I laughed
No amount of shitposting will ever make me prefer "Focus, M" to "Zanzibart... forgive me".
ZANZIBART, MY BELOVED
>>729607727You're gonna shit brix when you find out the Myrmidons were real too
>>729609295remember when we used CE to access DS2 DLC by warping behind the door? lol
>/v/ hates movie games>/v/ hates when fromsoft makes the story secondary to gameplayEvery time I ask shazamniggers what they think a good game is, they never respond.
>>729609473Next you're gonna tell me that Loss is real too.
>>729609337Africa is generally a waste to spend any time learning about.
>>729607568Am I the only person who just plays the games and kills the bosses and never reads any of the items and shit? Like I can't be bothered with the lore when it's just more fun to kill the big mother fuckers with swords.
>>729607568Shitpost aside, are there any games written in nonsense prose like Jabberwocky?
>>729609462Literally no one outside of a few people on this website (like 100 people) have ever in their life heard these expressions. If you mention these or say it to anyone outside of this place they'll give you the fluoride stare and think you're schizophenic. Imagine sitting with your normie friends watching people having sex in the boys show/Fallout on amazon Prime and you randomly go "Forgive me Zanzibart" during this scene.
>>729608278even truer 5 years later, I legit don't understand how people can still enjoy souls barebones combatit barely evolved from demon's souls and it was serviceable at best back then
>>729607568>recoverrecover from what nigger, I love this shit.It's so fucking weird how there is still a push to act like this is an "own" to fromsoftware fans when as soon as the zanzibart meme dropped everyone embraced it and there were month long threads of people acting like zanzibart was real.
>>729609727>are there any games written in nonsense prose like Jabberwocky?the hylics series
The webm that anally annihilated the fromfailures.
>>729607727But Zanzibart is a real name from Dark Souls.
>>729609848Your brain is hurt dude. It's okay! Just take it easy, don't think bad stuff, don't let the hatred make your delirious.
>>729608105I'm sitting in my office laughing like an idiot
>>729609462>Good, you made it.>That you, Melina? I see Gideon's roped you into this too.>A finger maiden's job is never done. But we can talk about that later. Radahn's castle should be just up ahead.>I thought I smelled something rotting...>Focus, T. Radahn's got the Great Rune and you know what that means.>Yeah, trouble.>Exactly. So watch your back.>Oh, and if you find any golden seeds out there, make sure to grab those too. Collect just enough, and I might have an upgrade waiting for you.>You're the boss, m'lady>*Ugh*Alright Tarnished... time to party
I'm sure I'll get called a weeb but its this shit why watching anime in japanese is preferred, you can't explain that to anyone though for some reason "I don't want to read" and so on.
>>729608471Please don't remind me
>>729609924answer this >>729609656

>>729610106Well designed games with good gameplay and story.
>>729609656>he thinks the story is secondary to gameplay in dark soulsIt's a meandering apocalypse tale without real characters or stakes but it's still miles ahead of the effort they put into the gameplay
>>729607568>pick up their items, it's dogshitMy favorite part. There's never been a quest in the entire series where an NPC dies and they drop something actually worthwhile.
>>729609848Sex with Ryuuko

>>729610172well, does killing lautrec count? FaP ring is amazing
>>729610181I agree anon. After so long she is still the most attractive character ever made.

>>729610150nice, i enjoyed that glorified flash game too. is that the only game you played in your entire life?>>729610151don't think you played it lmao
>>729608278You can complain but people that hate their own heritage seem to thing some shitty jank from the third world is amazing. Tarkov, Souls games even Zelda is some treasured trash from japan just because nipon folded 1000 times instead of making something modern.
>>729610369There are lots of great /games/ out there.
>>729609690Learning is wasted on amerisharts in general
>>729610369>glorified flash gameImagine using this as an insult. Fucking stupid zoomer.
>>729610187For an AAA game, it should require an at least 400 page document to describe it.
>>729608278>Quick Attack>Strong attack>Kick>Jump attack>Backstep attack>Running attack>Rolling attack>Two handed versions of the above>Plunging attack>Can have up to two different right-hand weapons in DS1, so up to double the above moves>Also get up to 2 moves per left handed weaponAnd that's without getting into spells, buffs, consumables ect.
dark souls hate is the most forced thing ive ever witnessed
>>729610481you must enjoy the story of monster hunter games too, right? how about nioh? i refuse to believe you faggots are nothing other than neckbeard contrarians if this is the best you can scrounge up
>>729608717fucking kino
>>729609765I mean for one it’s literally not two buttons
>>729608278>I COULD FUCKING FORGIVE ALLZanzi-anon... forgive him...
>>729610738The fact that it perfectly coincides with India and SEA’s increased internet usage is too hilarious to overlook.
>>729610579shut the fuck up dude, you hate elden ring simply because it's popular. it's by no means a perfect game sure but you will pick the most asinine shit about the game to latch on to for no reason at all because you think it puts you on some high horse. is that not the most fucking pathetic thing? are you fucking happy about shitting up this board for no reason?
>>729607568jej
>>729610791Still makes me smile.
>>729610740Never played those games. The ones I posted are absolutely phenomenal though.
What spurred this shazamtranny meltdown?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MjSQfinxy2Y
>>729610895I don't hate elden ring though. Not everyone on the board is the same person retard.
>>729609107Uhhhhh... no it doesn't?
>>729608278Devs copy the combat because it's easy. Gamers notice the combat because it's easy. Anyone who was capable of creating/appreciating Dark Souls level design didn't need someone else to point it out to them.
>>729608263kek, zanzi was a hell of a fight, yeah
>>729610975ah so you do it because you are indian, then
>>729610943is there anyone on this board who has ever lost as hard as shazamposters?
>>729608278>Armored Coredid he kill himself when they made it a soulslike?
>>729610740The story of Nioh is literally history of 1580 and then 1600 Japan. How else would I know about the Ishida clan warring against Tokugawa at Sekihagara?
>>729610943I think he was having a melty over Nioh in one of the steam sales threads and made this one after getting blown out of the waterHe was having trouble with the idea of the first 100 hours of a game being fun then the next 150 hours of the game being loot autism which is also fun but a different kind of game
>>729610883>assuming there is a correlation when there's noneEveryone hates soulsfails.
>>729608229>>729608434nta, did my own checkCoast of the black people lmaoNigger beach indeed
>>729609708No most people do exactly thatIt's why the lore videos are popular in the first place>what the fuck was the point of all that >I'm not gonna bother, I'll look it up instead
>>729608278I love retards who sperg out like that about two button combat as if 99.9% of games weren't exactly just as simple and basic mechanically
>>729611552What he's truly complaining about is the boring predictability of these games.
>>729611552Bloodborne uses two buttons but has fun combos and also incorporates cadence. The fuck happened to the people that designed that combat? Pulling off the long Blades of Mercy combo on an enemy is so satisfying.
>>729608278>nes-levels of depthThat explains why it's actually good.
>>729608278Complex and deep doesn't inherently mean good.
>>729611552The true issue with souls-like games is that every boss boils down to>roll to avoid the attack (usually from a big guy with a sword) even if the attack fucking flies through your character model and run away if it's impossible to roll throughwhen you know they can make more interesting encounters. There is no reason I should be fucking dodging through a boss like Radahn's attacks by jumping with a horse. I like these games for everything outside of the boss fights because I've done 90% of the fights in the game 100 times before and it's become beyond stale.
>>729610790yep, it's three in fact. dodge roll, and the attack button of choice, heavy, light? whatever, as long as they make the dodge roll come out faster
ABSOLUTELYTARNIVEROUS
>>729612127the problem with the bosses is they've fully bought into the DUDE NOBODY MAKES A HARDER GAME THAN FROM hype so they're locked in an endless arms race against themselves to make the hardest boss they possibly can no matter how retarded and bullshitty and unfun it has to be
>>729611159DD2fags.
>>729611729No, what he's truly complaining about is something being popular and people enjoying it.
>>729612127Crouching and jumping works but just like investing 200 smiting stones to try out of new weapon, why would you risk it when rolling works too? They have to remove rolling, and leveling for that matter.
>>729608278>two buttonsattack, big attack, special attack, dodge, jump, block, consumable is more than 2 buttons
>>729612357/v/ has enjoyed popular things so this argument holds no weight.
>thou were...truly...TarnivorousHoly shit my sides
>>729612331Mogh is fun though and it's kino that their $60 DLC is locked behind him and there is no pay2win solution.
>>729612408>implying that /v/ legitimately hates ER and that threads like this aren't just the handiwork of a small group of mentally ill autistsYou're doing the thing where you schizo headcanon your opinion as the opinion of society at large again. Stop that.
>>729612481>pay2win solutionSummoning players are a thing
>>729607568How do they get away with this shit game after game? I don't care about the nonconsequental ramdom lore but the NPCs only sitting around talking nonsense and then always dying is fucking stupid.
>>729612560/v/'s criticism of ER is well-founded and much supported especially when taking into account From's Souls' ludography.
>>729612650They get away with it because NPC interactions are not what people play souls games for
>>729607568i don't think anyone is mad at this or the zanzibart memeseveryone who likes elden ring and the other miyazaki games laughs with these because they are funny
>>729610187do a raycast to determine line of sight. use that to determine whether the enemy is aware of being attacked and whether he should react based on vision range and angle, hearing range, whether you're in stealth etc. add a reasonable reaction time then have the enemy attempt to dodge or block, go behind cover or whatever it does. even if there are multiple enemies who do react, you randomize reaction time and type so they aren't synchronized.with more advanced ai they may be aware of each other, trying to use each other as shields or teaming up to attack you together.
>>729612587Not pay2win, also that involves luck.
>>729612662>more schizobabbleYou are not /v/. You are a mentally ill loser who will eternally seethe that people enjoy something that you don't.
Do you think Miyazaki goes through english dictionary to find the most obscure pretentious words he can use for npcs?
It's for sheeple that only play through a predetermined path.
>>729607568I wonder what the poster wanted me to take away from this post. It doesn't really make a statement about quality, it only sort of describes what happens in some souls type quests, but never actually says why its good or bad. Thing is, I already played these games so I know what the quests are like. So what's the point at the end of it if you're not gonna at least share your opinion or a critique?He says that the loot at the end of the quest is bad so... is that what it's about? A quest's quality is determined by if the loot is good then. So Ranni's quest is amazing because the DMGS is a really good weapon? I agree in that case.
>>729607568Elden Ring has fucking ruined everything
I'm getting bored of this game.
>>729608278>>729607568Why do from fromcucks pretend the game is hard? You literally cannot die. In other games you die and boom you have to reload god knows how far.
>>729610740>>729610895>all this anguish just because someone poke fun at elden ringAre you alright dude
It's boring.
>>729613034That's the faggotry with Elden Ring, you criticize it in anyway and bootlickers just scream SKILL ISSUE, while completely ignoring the games beyond egregious flaws and boring ass gameplay.
>>729612996What's that? You don't like expanding play time by running around huge empty open world slop?
>>729612127That's why I could never get into a souls game. I tried 1, 2 and Bloodlines, and just got bored before I started having fun. Just wait, watch and take a poke every now and then
>>729612951>>729613016>>729613070jermeyposts
>>729613016I legitimately do not understand what's meant to be wrong with your webm
But i like Code Vein.
>>729607568I just love the Zanzibart meme, always makes me laugh.
>>729613070The criticism was input reading being dialed up to 11 in ER. That's not what you're showing.
>>729612690first fromsoft game I ever played was Elden Ring and the game had retarded design with the npcs and I dont get anything out of killing fodder npcs every step of the wayERs utter incompetence in narrative department and quest design made it one of the rare "lonely" gaming experiences I had. Just hours of doing stupid shit for no one because its all a fever dream.

>>729609473I thought those were just ant-centaurs from DnD
>>729613430That's because it was literally unfinished, it's not a finished game. Only 60% at best. Every NPC questline is literally unfinished or missing. Half of the NPCS are not even present in the game.

I finished Bloodborne and didn't really understand anything about the story so I watched some vaati videos and I realized he's actually shit. He didn't even "finish" the game. Are there any actually good soulsborne youtubers?
FUCK YOU, ZANZIBART!FUCK YOU, MYRMIDION!!!I WILL NEVER FORGIVE YOU FOR THE SINS YOU HAVE SCHOLARED!!!*prepare to die editions*
>>729615294it wasn’t a joke. some people are so desperate for pussy they wouldn’t pass on a lot lizard. people are so desperate to fit in by playing fromsoft games that they don’t care how fucking terrible it is
>>729614278Discord of retards who believed that if they spammed /v/ enough, Elden Ring would flop. This obviously didn't happen and they've been seething uncontrollably at fromsoft ever since.>you now remember the "spiritually flopped" cope
>>729615650I miss when /v/ wasn't fucking obsessed with sales figures
>>729615737
>>729609656Japanese writing is childish stuff you might read out of a manga where characters spout their innermost thoughts to the audience, hence why the only successful triple A japanese developer makes non-story games.
>>729615650that’s a big L for /v/ because that just means it’s the most accessible (easy) game in the series. there is no way to spin elden ring into being beneficial for the games industry
>>729615845>he's on the anti-japan seething part now>>729615854there was also a massive filter for /v/ in the form of Margit.

>>729609656From -haters are 99 times out 100 just 3rd world brownoids who shit on every game they can't run on their phone because of sour grapes
Literally the only "hard" "le filter" bosses in rollslop are the inflated HP chalice dungeon bosses in BB
>>729616048there is no filter you just learn the patterns. it’s a good puzzle game not a good action game and that’s fine
>>729616034have they just thought about grifting from xitter.
>>729615052That's every action game.
>>729610689these all do the exact same thing
I just find it funny that people have spent this much time shitting on a series they don't like or haven't even played. All the same cherry picked webms, posts about little janky things most people either hardly care about or just accept, posts about muh rolling and input reading. It all accomplishes nothing and yet they continue.Think of the countless hours these people have spent doing this, Elden Ring obviously brought the most of these types out the and they're still going on about it almost 4 years later.
>AH, FINALLY I HAVE BECOME ELDEN ENOUGH TO CRAFT THIS RING TO PROCREATE WITH MY LOVER, FORGIVE ME, Z
like there are legitimate specific things to criticize in souls games but all of this generic critique just comes off as spur grapes from secondaries who don't actually know what they're talking about
>>729616335Now post that again without crying.
>>729607568>literal SOVL>>>implyingNot only are actual human bean posters (a rarity on this board, these days) itt bang on target, >>729609848, but for all its faults (the already mentioned quests, among other things) FROMsoft actually makes fun and cool games. That also happen to have great waifus* for all different tastes and patrician preferences.
>>729616335it's a joke, everyone loves souls games. Only a few people pretend they don't.
>>729616401I wasn't laughing that hard about it. I may in another 4 years when these people are still making all these same posts though.

>>729614386Genuinely the best strategy for 90% of the enounters in all souls games is to walk directly at the enemy's offhand shoulder to avoid attacks. Its not interesting, its fucking stupid, and its a problem that will never be solved by continuing to nerf already useless dodgerolls.

>>729617635>zanzibartdrones are seriously cringe as fuck, they repeat the same joke over and overMuch like Fromsoft repeating the same assets and lore over and over.
>>729617578There were three threads up. What do you think.
>Retards discover dungeon crawler RPG for the first time>"I have found a new genre! I shall call it, fromslop.">"An item description? Hm-hm, that is so Zanzibart-esque.">"Oh, is that a swamp? Nice reference to Miyazaki-san."
>>729616551>Every single fucking ending involves either you sacrificing for nothing because shit is goning to be shit anyways or going full edgelord for the sake of.Elden Ring is a little better on that aspect because instead of being a nihilist POS you're a simp.
>>729615650It was Cyberpunk you ridiculous fucking newfag.
>zanzibartdrones when they post it for the fiftieth time that hour
>>729607568This is exactly what Elden Ring is like. I pirated it when I had nothing better to play, beat a few bosses including the guy with a lot of arms who is supposedly a difficult one, and uninstalled because I was sick of this dogshit writing and the soulless setting.
>Everyone when a fromdrone troons out
>tendies cry about fromsoft thread #9282309190
>>729608278Taiko no Tatsujin is one button and it's fun as hell.
>>729607568The item is basically the opposite of the average Fromosft ring/talisman. Usually they're really vague, not hyper specific like that. It's more like>Enhances potency of quick attacks but increases damage takenAnd you're left wondering what the fuck a "quick attack" is, how much your own damage is increased and how much more damage you take.
>>729608263ah yes fromdrones known for being able to take criticism in stride. making a gay wojak meme does not change this.
>>729618553Nigger sit down. It started with Cyberpunk, and then the retards tried to apply the same logic to Elden Ring and got raped.
>>729613092>you criticize it in anyway and bootlickers just scream SKILL ISSUEHow new are you? There's been near daily threads of people like you throwing a shit fest over the game. And that's before we get into shit like PvP, where even more shitting and pissing happensNow go back
>>729607568Thought my lungs were gonna collapse from laughing so much
>>729611356زنجIs nigger in Arabic
>>729619885>زنجyeah, and nigger in english was originally just slang for blackso the old world becomes a swear word lmao
>>729619548>Anon posts a joke>You seethe at him about how actually he's the one seethingLol
>>729607568Kino.
Elden Ring was literally the shittiest game I ever bought and somehow I managed to do 3 full runs (different builds, no NG+ bullshit) and 100% cheevo. How the fuck do from cucks enjoy these shit games?
>me when im a chinese writer and 3 different characters need to tell MC the same thing and i call this good writing>Mhmm yes, to continue on your journey, chosen undead, that means that you have been chosen by fate, undead, you have to ring the bells of awakening. There are two bells of awakening you have to ring. One is in undead burg at the top of the church through the gargoles. You get that? You just have to get to the top of the church belltower to ring the first bell of awakening! And the second one is actually at the very bottom! You have to go through the sewers in undead burg and find blighttown. There is a witch queen that guards the belltower in blight town, so you have to defeat her in order to ring the second bell of awakening that is at the very bottom, through the sewers of undead burg in blighttown. You should go for the belltower in the undead burg first, the one that is on top of the church, past the gargoyles! And then you should find the sewer key to enter the sewers and fight the demon witch in blighttown to ring the second belltower! That way you have rung both bells of awakening and that opens the next area of the game (mean story!)!
>>729607568zanzi is a sick fucking cunt
>>729608278this is the type of guy that gets 10-0 in burg and then pretends like "the game is broken"
>>729618723>>729620891Name 5 good games
>>729608717this joke is already 999999999999999999999 times better than anything ubisoft has ever done, everthat says something (specially about their stock price)
Miyazaki and From Chads living rent free in the minds of /v/irginsit's okay, maybe you'll make it past Capra someday :^)
>>729609656>/v/who?
>>729621136That fag from DMC5
>>729610106dark souls
>>729612951I fucking miss when this was possible, it made the game 20 times better than it is now
>>729615261you don't know what overrated means you stupid faggot
>>729620891go back to sucking dicks on reddit
>>729608278>dork sols>RPG
>>729607568>the Elden Ring lore is schizophrenic NPC ramblings and piecemeal item descriptions>Fromdrones still manage to milk years worth of wikis and videos explaining why all this is coherent and mattersvery diarrhea
>>729621062Thief IISimCity 4Deus Ex: Mankind DividedCaesar IIIRoller Coaster Tycoon (I and II)Honorable:Transport Tycoon Deluxe (OpenTTD)Star Control II (The Ur-Quan Masters)Shit man. There are too many. Even mid tier that are "souls like" that are better than DS and ER:Jedi Survivor Numale of War (incl Ragnarok)
>>729621629My schizo theory is that fromsoft was paid by Fandom (subsidiary of wikimedia) to make the plot and mechanics and level design incoherent to drive wiki traffic and generate ad revenue.
>>729608278Combat isn't better just because it has more buttons. Nioh and Capcom games have all sorts of flippy dippy ninja bullshit you can do with your character but it doesn't actually matter in the end. What matters in Souls games is when you use your attacks. It really isn't different than other RPGs or FPSs in that regard. The only people who complain about this are the cringelords who like Capcom games, where you flip around like a ninja for honestly no reason because the enemies are just punching bags. It's entirely form over function, these gamers just want to play a character that looks cool and they don't actually care about the encounters. I don't think the average DMC fan can name a single enemy from their games because they're all just there to get "styled" on. MH fans can name the monsters in their game, though, because they have to grind them for "cool armor" lol
>>729607568This is, unironically, the Souls/Elden experience.The storytelling and questing is complete pretentious dogshit.
>>729610012
I suppose sequestering the story to item descriptions does keep it from ruining anything, but the end result is kind of uninteresting. I like the games but never pay attention to the lore because I'm still not convinced fromsoft themselves are actually all that invested in it.
>>729613034You literally die and risk losing the stuff you need to level up with, putting you in a losing spiral.
>>729608039Nah, it's where the Sultan of Oman lived at one point.
>>729615079Doom actually has lame gameplay? Visual feedback of enemies being hit and dying? Great! Level design? Great! Gameplay? It's just a resource management game, there is no aiming to be had, projectile enemies are easy to dodge unless the room is super limited in space and/or Path of Exile tier amount of demons and hitscan enemies provides no counterplay. Being one button doesn't make it lame, but it still is lame.
>>729621629>>729621860if you actually watched the lengthy lore videos, you would find out that the lore does make sense. stay pedestrian zanzibartdrones
>>729607727O U T E RUTERH E A V E NEAVEN
>>729621062Why would I?
>>729609848seriously, it's like they think zanzibart can't be real because Harry Potter is the only REAL story or somethingthey're all stories, faggots, and the one in Dark Souls is just all the more epic because normies can't into environmental storytelling
>>729610936Is this fucking Mindustry, the FREE and OPEN SOURCE factory sim/TD/RTS videogame?It's pretty good
>>729616290are you the type of guy to just spam the basic jab in fighting games?
>>729622513>4 hours of yap essays grasping at straws = coherent lore worth the effortkek it's already over for you
>>729608278I'm a Soulsfag hater but this post is retarded. Thinking how many buttons you have to press is the end-all-be-all of gameplay depth just shows this retard shouldn't ever comment on game design
>>729610936>>729623543A fellow Mindustry enjoyerIt was at this point I knew that you were my nigga.
>>729607568>Athoughbeitfully the mimsy broves outhgrathefucking LOL
>>729625345totally agreed fellow /V/ user. we all much prefer better games for better men like the borderlands series which has much much better writing
>>729620590>>729619885Zanzibar was under the control of arabs from oman for a long time
>>729623061But Souls storytelling appeals to normies. Millions of people watch Vaati
>randomly injecting shart into a word because epic narwhal bacon funnyI genuinely can't think of a less clever anti-humor way to proudly show people how retarded you are.
>>729608039Let me guess you think PMCs are fictional too right?
>>729607727Because nobody talking about video games on the internet actually knows anything about video games anymore, I'm pretty sure 99% of people spouting the Zanzibart meme don't realize it's really based on Gray Fox's melodramatic death speech in MGS1, which starts with "AFTER ZANZIBAR...", Zanzibar being a country that is completely irrelevant to the game and had never been brought up before that point, which most players probably didn't know was a country, and which was referencing the previous game in the overall series (MG2) which was never released outside of Japan at the time. It seemed to be some random nonsense this dying faggot blurted out, like the Fromsoft meme.Hope someone learned something today.
>>729607568Miyahacki fags are so pathetic
>>729617635Unironically would love a proper game about the evil tree thing
>>729607727>Not the Halo 2 map
>>729607727oi m8 you havin' a giggle? Smudgewrinkle's right past Spituponyorrseshire!
>>729608717>kinographie
>>729607568that's more of a dark souls thingElden ring is more of>oh look it's the tarnished faggot. Do a fetch quest for me, will ya?>arbitrarily moves to a completely fuckrandom spot in a huge empty map
Zanzibart wouldn't have been a thing if post-irony humor never took off amongst millennials. Guess who the biggest offender of being insincere at all costs on the internet are?
>>729621065Literally rent free.Seek help bro.
>>729607727ZANZIBART LAND
Is there a bigger red flag than someone calling themselves a """"soul veteran""""
The other thread got pruned by janniggers before I could reply so I'm just chucking it here>uses two summons and cheese to beat a nerfed boss>"heh this was easy">gets ass mad when people answer the question that was posed in the OPDo patientgamerfags really?>>729626721Even if this is the origin of the meme, you're still autistic for knowing it instead of laughing at the obvious joke being posed.
>>729607727You should know, as it's a place where a Great Chimpout took place and the Ugandan nigger behind it ended up getting killed by Idi Amin, the African giganigga Hitler.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zanzibar_Revolution>During the revolution, Africans committed an orgy of violence against the South Asian and Arab communities, including thousands of women being raped by Okello's followers, and extensive looting and massacres of Arabs all over the island.>Those travelling in the car convoy to the English Club were shocked to see the battered bodies of Arab men lying out on the streets of Stone Town with their severed penises and testicles shoved into their mouths.>The American diplomat Don Petterson described this horror as he watched from his house a gang of African men storm the house of an Arab man, behead him in public with a panga, followed by screams from within his house as his wife and three children were raped and killed, followed by the same scene being repeated at the next house of an Arab, followed by yet another and another.>Petterson wrote "Genocide was not a term that was as much in vogue then, as it came to be later, but it is fair to say that in parts of Zanzibar, the killing of Arabs was genocide, pure and simple".Reading African history really makes you wish for TND.Young Freddy Mercury and his parents lived in Zanzibar and subsequently escaped to the UK.
>>729607568Reminder that this is how Western RPGs look like to Japanese people
>>729611552It's an RPG. The only two other two-button RPGs I can think of are Skyrim and Fable and both have shit to mediocre combat.>>729618889>souls games are rhythm gameslol
Forgive me.../v/anons. /v/ anons....
>>729616997So many dogshit games.
>>729629385They look at fermented fish testicles and see food.I'd not trust their expertise on anything.
>>729609730Bro, i would not be friends with anyone who watches the fallout show.
>>729608278there are at least three buttons
>>729616997i forgot about chop, time to rewatch some kino of it
>>729629385It's hilarious that two of the best known auteurs in gaming are Japanese Westaboos who don't really understand the source material but everyone is too afraid to call them out on it.
>>729607568Was watching pirates of the caribbean the other day and in the 3rd movie there is a zanzibart forgive me moment. Elizabeth gets captured by the chinese pirates and as the pirate lord is yapping they get sneak attacked and cannon'd. Hes dying and says elizabeth forgive me and makes her the new pirate lord to go to the conclave.
>>729630348Sounds woke
