>>730841342Sunshine is the best 3d Mario game lol.
>>730841342anime is shit
Boss fights as a concept are played out and don't add anything of value to games.
The Last of Us 2 is a very good sequel
>>730841342Ocarina of Time is still the best game regarding the sense of going on a grand adventure and the feel of exploration. No game has captured that scale and the adventure thing.
I like Epic Game Store

>>730841539/v/ is only around 10% actual people at this point and that's being generous.
>>730841342Fromsoft is shit and has always been shit. King's Field is horrible to play, troons like the aesthetics but never played it. Armored Core used to appeal to nobody besides complete autists and even they said its mediocre, but the new game is aimed at normalfags, so they retroactively turned the old games masterpieces (that they never played). Demon's Souls is fine but buggy as hell, just a Japanized wrpg. Dark Souls is utter dogshit for redditors who piss and shit themselves when they see le ebin interconnected world. It's just hard enough to challenge a normalfag who's never played a game, so it sparked a meme that's been turning gaming discourse to shit ever since. Elden Ring is the same slop but open world, even more so appealing to the normalnigger "$1 + 1 hour" audience by padding it out with meaningless fucking abyss you need to traverse just to do the same.
>>730841687my opinion is that the people who post shit like this are mostly underage and/or brown

Bethesda games are garbage and Fallout was never good. All of them play like garbage and have low tier writing.

>>730841342physical media is gay and people who pay for it are retarded. you can just emulate all that shit with the right TV and controllers its the same experience. sorry you never "yeeted" a SNES game by smashing the eject button but you can just play all those games for like $10 with a replica controller, and CRTs are often found on the curb or at a thrift store for literally nothing
>>730841342I like slop games. I just want to play the most redditcore slop games, I use reddit for my games recommendations and I choose the sloppiest games because I enjoy entertainmentslop.

The cut-off point between retro and modern gaming is the advent of 3D rendering as the default medium for game development.

>>730842191I agree that it has caused an increase in costs, but I wouldn't say it's THE reason. The main contributor seems to have been the transition to high definition graphics as costs have been absolutely spiralling since then. There's plenty of fully-voiced indie games that don't cost hundreds of millions to make.

>>730842078Morrowind is lightning in a bottle. Bethesda can't write for shit unless one of their hacks take drugs and accidentally come up with something compelling than generic American fantasy. I can't argue with gameplay since they're always ass.
>>730842441I think its more fundamental than that, and it came once they stopped having to ship games on disks.When you had to ship (mostly) complete, you had to optimize your game and since you could only put so much on one disk you had to optimize, and save as much space as possible.
>>730841342/v/ is more casual than the normies
Devil May Cry and MGS suck and most of their nufans don't play their games. They're overrated as shit and aren't that good storywise nor gameplaywise.

>>730841342SKG was a nothing burger and all the hate for PirateSoftware was over blown and artificial af. It was stupid as hell to lean on the govt; a bunch of boomers to lead the charge to save games or whatever anyway. And even if bunch of games were made to come back we all know what is going to happen; you're gonna play it for an hour, get bored, look for coom mods and when non-exist or it's too tedious to setup, turn off the game you been bitchin' about and come back here to bitch/cry some more.Now check this hotdog out
>>730842078how is that controversial?Fallout 1 was acxtually good, it started going to shit in the second episode with stupid humour and trying to expand an incoherent setting

Resident evil 4 qtes are good
>>730841342mortal kombat shaolin monks is the best mk game
>>730841602I agree
>>730841342Elden Ring is From Soft's worst game and only did well because 1) there was a souls drought for 6 years (not including Sekiro), 2) George RR Martin was credited meaning the GoT fags flocked to it like babes to a teet, and 3) it's open world.I also think it has SEVERE balancing issues wherein the player does next to no damage while bosses two shot you no matter what equipment you're wearing.
>>730841342Graphics should’ve never advanced beyond the PS2 era. >>730841473Bold, could’ve argued but posting Rain World stopped me.
>>730843072this sounds very gay
>>730842441Thats why I said key, not total. For every graphical leap, it was doubled down upon by voice work. Lip sync, Actor casting, motion capture, performance capture, likeness scanning, and its all been negative, I can watch any game cutscene from the 2000s with hand animated lip flaps and be entertained vastly more than hyperreal face data that makes everything look disgustingly uncanny, not to mention the complete sin that has been appealing to zero attention span morons, games dont fucking SHUT UP, just wordswordswords, I enjoy open world games more now because they're one of the few genres that might give me a few minutes of genuine tranquility before the next deluge of quirk chungus line reads
FromSoft games are all moviegames.I enjoyed watching all the endings.
>>730841342Breath of the Wild was a mistake.
Video games are a worthwhile hobby
>>730841342Oblivion is the best Elder Scrolls game.
>>730842132You want a controversial one?Pokemon SV with DLC is better than HGSS. It's literally the postgame extra regions thing but better and with more content. Monster Hunter 3U is dogshit entirely because of the camera.Cosmetic mtx is just as unacceptable as other mtx. No "nice gold faggit" comic will change this, it's a shitty practice that eased people into accepting mtx in full price retail games that already got your money.Voice acting is not only unimportant, it's legitimately annoying as fuck when people act like a game NEEDS it. I don't care if it's in Japanese, English, or whatever. It's literally the least important part of any game, even story based ones. If you ever bought or did not buy a game because of anything related to voicing, you should probably pursue non interactive media instead.
>>730841342Verso was right.
>>730841342Elden Ring Nightreign is better than Elden Ring.
>>730841687this>>730841823>underage and/or brownlike the entirety of the souls audience?
>>730842421Yeah.
Trails in the Sky SC is not the amazing game the fanbase pretends it is, in fact it is the first game in the series to begin the exact writing flaws that people accuse the later games of (the CS and beyond games more specifically).I personally maintain that only Sky 1 is a good game that is worth playing.
>>730841342FFX is complete shit
>>730842078Kill yourself contrarian
>>730841342Deus Ex isn't cyberpunk
>>730843645Correct. Not only is it the best MK game, it's the only MK game that can be called great. There's a couple mainline games that are decent (UMK3 & MKXL) and the rest are mediocre to shit.
>>730841342Diablo is the best in the series, and diablo 2 ruined it by focusing entirely on the loot grind.
>>730841342Sekiro: Shadows Cringe Twice
Blue Prince is the most reddt put block in hole baby bitch "puzzle" game out there and im tried of the praise its getting, It's not smart or challenging in the slightest.
>>730846115Why do you say that anon?
>>730846181The combat is DDR with a sword.
people only like tank controls because it makes them feel elitist, they are shit and having more control over your character with strafe controls is leagues better
>>730841342nier automata, witcher 3, silent hill 2, and bioshock are all bad games and only loved for their aesthetics, music, and narratives. the actual game design behind them is dogshit and people who defend them are unable to grasp that products can be good art but bad games.
>>730841342Starfield wasn't that bad.
>>730846446How do you propose a better back and forth combat system? I'm not being facetious or setting up a gotcha, I think Sekiro and Wo Long are really the only ways to do it. High level Nioh gameplay involves bullying enemies and bosses alike relentlessly. DMC is the same, Ninja Gaiden, etc.
>>730842653Nothing is absolute, But there are several "crusaders" caught red-handed with that stuff on their computer.
>>730841342ADS ruined FPS genre
Final Fantasy 10 is better than 7, and every other game in the franchise is shit. Its a corpse being held together by nostalgia, irony obsessed non-conformists wanting their number to be the snowflake, remakes and remasters and paid shills and bots.
Face scanning killed any artistic design or merit in video games. It's just as bad as using AI.
>>730846872Nioh felt more real.
>>730846872NTA but defense based on your standard mobility options and defensive properties of your attacks is the best method. Parries are cinematic but kind of limiting in terms of what you can actually do on defense as the player if you center around them, invincible dodges are a slippery slope if you design too much around them. Of course it's not like you can't make combat systems built around i-frames or parries that work within their other systems in a satisfying way, but while Sekiro is a very polished version of what it's going for it doesn't really engage me. Doesn't help that a lot of games have done a worse version of what it did and tried to expect the player to engage with other systems when Sekiro is laser-focused on its parry mechanics (Wo Long is a great example; I think it's the weakest of the Nioh-styled games, not solely because of it trying to be Sekiro while also being Nioh 1.5, but that's a big reason).
>>730847619Nioh has immensely satisfying combat, but it's not a back and forth the way Sekiro or Wo Long are. Hence me asking, how do you propose a better back and forth combat system? If a back and forth combat system isn't something you're interested in, then you don't have to respond.
>>730841342Outlast is a legitimately dogshit 2/10 game
>>730847726If I hit an enemy, I should be able to keep hitting it until its dead.
>>730847726>but it's not a back and forthMost duels were unarmored in Japan. The guy who hit first won.
>>730847780>>730847813Realism is boring. Video games are supposed to feel fantastical.
Sonic 06 was one of the best sonic games.
>>730847780As I said, you didn't have to respond, but I understand you.>>730847813That wasn't what Sekiro or Wo Long were going for. I didn't say back and forth was realistic, I said that's what those games are, and asked if there was a better way anon could propose that didn't feel like DDR to him.
>>730841342clair obscura expedition 33 is just a 7/10 game. gameplay boils down to HP sponge enemies with long animations making fights take forever. and a few platforming sections for "diversity" in gameplay.its a hallway game, where every dungeon is the same, and almost every enemy/boss is the same, since the primary gimmick is to learn the timing to parry. any other "gimmicks" they might occasionally have, you can ignore, by just hitting parry.story is a jumbled mess, and mostly empty. you have the intro, which is very flawed, but acceptable enough with its hook. then for half the game you have gestrals. then the remaining is pointless fluff talk to make sure the story doesnt progress too fast.then you have it end.there wasnt much there. no real lune character development, no sciel character development (but of course u magically need them for their respective axon, ... for... some reason?and thats it. its over.hallwaysHP spongesand VERY tiny bit of story.its not bad, but its not amazing either. if i wanted a game with mid gameplay, and a great emotional ending, FFXIV did it better imo. (but to be fair, the gameplay there is absolute trash, 3/10)
>>730841441Every 3D Mario is 11/10 so I can't be mad at this. It's all down to subjective feelings which one you like best.
>>730847726Just copy/paste Soul Calibur's blocking system into a Souls game.>hold block button to block>perfectly time a block to parry>open the other guy's block with high/mid/low mixup>throws also guard break but they're a skill you have to buy >instead of leveling INT, STR, etc you just level up your damage, buy new moves, improve your parry effects, improve walkspeed, etc, really infinite possibilitiesThe problem with this system is that it requires each weapon or character to have a fully animated 3D fighting game moveset. They could dumb it down so enemies only have a few moves though. Another problem is moving the camera into OTS perspective for traversal then profile perspective when you lock onto an enemy. Multiple enemies at a time would be hard to set up nicely.I've played the SC2 single player so many times and thought damn this would work as a soulslike. Wish Bandai Namco had jumped on that hype train when everyone else did.
>>730841342[Popular Game] isn't actually good.
>>730848295Sounds like Nioh with Sekiro parrying (Nioh has throws and "throws") which is based.
>>730841342GTA and RDR are exceedingly dull and have irrevocably damaged the industry.
>>730847726>>730848295>>730848502Wo Long already perfected that gameplay with the Spirit Gauge system - if you spam the parry button, you lose spirit gauge which means your light attacks do less damage and your heavy attacks do less damage than that. The Spirit Gauge is the best thing to happen to third person action games and Wo Long is the only game that has it, making it based.
>>730848574Oh also, with a lower gauge, you take more damage from attacks. Landing attacks raising the gauge, parries raise the gauge, using heavy attacks drains the gauge. It's a l i t e r a l l y perfect system.
/v/irgins making contrarian hate threads about stuff they actually like are sometimes right about the game
Western games are far superior to eastern games and always have been. Specifically eastern games attempt to make up for extremely poor game design with flashy art and/or the illusion of progress (gachipon syndrome)
>>730841602this but MGS2
>>730849189Western games dominate the indie scene. Japan can't hold a candle, but yes, they make up for these shortcomings with art and such.
>>730843592if i ever go back to it someday i'd look into that mod that lets you tag barrel anywhere, would make the game a million times better with that alone
>>730849189Gameplaywise they don't. West only has very few exceptions above the rest but almost all are usually very generic and awful in approach. FPS is the genre they did well but is filled with agonizing boring slop goop games.
>>730841473Games that are closer to the typical hero's journey with a clear antagonist still benefit from boss fights.A game where "bosses" are just creatures or goons going about on their own business and you can choose to either kill or ignore them without being railroaded into doing it.Rain World good.
>>730849189Most western games are poorly designed with a few exceptions.
>>730841342Call of duty sucksDark souls 2 is still the best souls gameConsoles are worthless garbageDigimon has always been better than Pokemon and now Pokemon has been ripping off digimon with mega evolutionsThere hasn't been a good 3d Zelda since Majora's maskOblivion is a better rpg than Skyrim>>730841441I think I enjoyed galaxy more but sunshine is still heavily underrated.
>>730848574>>730848627I liked Wo Long combat system a lot but it's constraining to only allow for skills/spells to be used when a specific meter is filled. This kind of system is also much easier to balance.I think the whole point of the game was to make more casualized Nioh that would sell better but you know how that worked out.
>>730849234This. MGS2 has historically always been treated as a downgrade compared to MGS, literally everyone was disappointed back then when it released. YouTube essayists made people believe it's more than what it is. If someone says MGS2 is their favorite of the series they never played any of the games.
Resident Evil 6s 20+ hour runtime is more good than bad.
>>730849635>I think the whole point of the game was to make more casualized NiohNono, definitely not. It's a combat system where your brain never falls asleep. You are always in the moment. They never said that was their intention, but it is the end result of their devving. It's less complicated than Nioh, yes, but again, Nioh at its highest levels is not about back and forth combat. That's why enemies in Nioh have their own heavy attacks that are nigh unblockable or undodgeable. >but it's constraining to only allow for skills/spells to be used when a specific meter is filledIt's constraining by design. You parry and light attack to build up your spirit gauge, ideally to max but it isn't necessary, and then you use your skill or spell for maximum damage and posture damage. Or if an enemy's posture was just broken, and you happen to have a high spirit gauge, then you expend it for massive damage. >So heavy attacks are useless outside of using them on enemies with broken postures?Nope. Because a heavy attack with some spirit gauge, but ideally a lot or max, will lower an enemy's health or posture gauge. Again, it is a literally perfect combat system. The best one I've ever played. You are always in the moment.
>>730849813>That's why enemies in Nioh have their own heavy attacks that are nigh unblockable or undodgeable.Fuck, I meant that's why enemies in Wo Long* have their own heavy attacks.
>>730842653never forget
Essentially every RE game is massively frontloaded and tanks in quality past the first major area
Doom 3 is the best in the series and should've been improved on with doom 4. Also ID software would've made doom 3 in the 80s/90s if they had the tech they would never go in the direction of doom 2016/infinite/dark age. They wanted to create a scary atmosphere for a badass to survive and conquer. Also This is just an assumption i bet The devs would remove daisy from the game and just keep it "doomguy is made they killed his wife and kids" the redditfication of the rabbit joke is the most cringe shit ive ever seen. >"muh hecken baby chungus your gonna pay orange ma- ERM demon :P"
>>730841342Baldur's Gate 3 is an abomination of a game that has set RPGs, as well as game design as a whole, back by a decade. Hades and it's sequel are not good games by any reasonable metric.There is actually nothing wrong with extraction shooters, the problem is, as always, the normalniggers who play them.Using AI is not inherently evil or immoral.The Switch 2 is somehow even more pathetic than the PS5, which is really saying something.From Software should have their headquarters burnt to the ground.Silksong is a terrible sequel to Hollow Knight, but not a bad game when considered on its own merits.
>>730841342It's pronounced "Rio" Speedwagon. If they wanted to be called "Are Eee Oh" Speedwagon, they should have put dots in the name.
>>730841342E33 is a Good game, like 7/10 good. Only reason it's considered this end all be all game of the century so hard is because it's a middle finger to AAA (AAAA Gaming) which everyone hates and maybe rightfully so but it's all about timing. Something New + Glazing of Indies + Everyone looking for a game to hold up high as an example of a Cheap experience + Hate on AAA Gaming = E33 11/10's everywhere.
>>730841441its far from the worst but a number of the shines are just utter dogshitI had a lot more fun with it via eclipse though
>>730841342JRPGs can only be made by Japanese creatives in Japan.
The Half-Life series just isn't that good.
>>730849813You need to parry or light attack first to fill the gauge, which means you have less options to initiate the fight. You could use skills/spells even if they leave you at disadvantage but this is probably not the optimal play most of the time.The back and forth flow this system creates is something worth pursuing, I would say this is the most promising combat system I saw in a while, but they would need to broaden offensive options to outdo Nioh. Sadly the general opinion at the time was that it's shitty Sekiro.
>>730841441For me it's "Odyssey is the best and Galaxy is the worst."
I dont know about the other games but bioshock 1 was certainly alot of peoples babies first system shock and got following because of it+setting. The fact that 2 got shafted and infinite got praise is the real crime of the series also levien malding about 2 to the point he retconned it in the DLC for infinite is always funny.

>>730850023I'd be right there with you bro. D3 is a legitimately awesome game, and with a few tiny tweaks to how you play it, is one of the best survival horror experiences you can have.The DOOM SLAYORRRR shit is so viscerally try hard that it comes across as a parody of those edgelord the hedgehog type OCs from the MySpace and bebo days.
Even though I'm old and therefore play old games I'm familiar and nostalgic for, generally games get better and better as time goes on. Barring obvious counters like woke and sell-out monetization schemes. Writing, graphics, design philosophy, depth, it's all been steadily improving.
>>730850183>You need to parry or light attack first to fill the gauge, which means you have less options to initiate the fightThat's true, but I suppose it just doesn't bother me, and it seems by design. I wouldn't know how to alter that without altering the flow. Notice that there are items like>Temporarily increases spirit gauge gain during combatThere are no items to increase the spirit gauge outside of combat, hence it seems by design. Ah well, Wo Long 2 when.>>730850375Based.

Just this one area that it was pretty awful and after all this time its still cited as the reason the game was garbage and the series had to be relegated to handheld devices to entertain kids on their way to school.
>>730841342That despite being nowhere near what we were promised, dragon's dogma 2 is still a fun game

>>730851141If you follow a guide, already knowing the map layout and know the optimal strategies before even booting the game, sure, it can get monotonous. If you went completely blind, no spoilers, week one I dont believe you.Going though a random lake and Agheel drops on you, smoking stale meth in Limgrave and ending up in Super aids Australia in the centipede Rape cave. Going down the elevator in the mist woods expecting a generic dungeon and getting ash lake 2.0.It was a magical experience.Some people have an irrational hatred for Elden Ring because they don't get it. Souls games never "clicked" for them. Instead of realizing it's not for them they throw shit at everyone that enjoys it.
>>730851942Well at least we can agree Limgrave was pretty good.
>>730841342FFVI being a good game. It’s not a good game. It sucks and I have no idea why it always makes it at the top of so many GOAT vidya lists.
>>730841342Gacha is shit.
>>730841342People should play their games instead of spending their time online throwing shit at each others because of them because they have to convince themselve that they play the objectively best games on the best objectively system or else they're gay or something
>>730841602I agree. I have 0 fucking idea why people suck it off so much.
It's been twenty years and RE4 is still the only good one
>>730851942The game's open world is just bloat when compared to the much tighter arrangement of DeS and DaS1, and being able to warp to a checkpoint every 100 meters feels like a mind disease.It really just functions as a level select, so that they don't need to haphazardly stitch the end result into a straight line like with DaS3, they can just plop each level into the middle of an empty field. The levels aren't even large and cohesive enough for them to get away with what they did for DeS. Going into it blind just means that they game can trick you into going through its bland and uninteresting filler content on the way to the good content.

I don't care if the dev is indie or AAA or whatever, all I care about is the game being good, and indies are disappointing far more often than AAA due to sheer quantity. That being said, I consider roguelikes and all variants to completely subpar, soulless games, barely above gacha and live service slop, basically the same as mobile crap like Candy Crush or Angry Birds. Roguelikes aren't games, at best they're demos, and I consider every single one of them to be shit because of that.
Open world games are automatically bad because the open worlds don't have level designRockstar games are only good when you're fucking around with NPCs and completely terrible otherwiseAmbiance music is actively detrimental to the games' OST

>>730842906I like MGS because it is ridiculous, but I did play them all. Now MGR? That's just secondary heaven, willing to bet 80% of the "Fans" of MGR don't even know who Jack is and that he has a wife.

The player base of LoL and Valorant are worse than subhumans and their opinions matter even less than one of a shill jeet. Every single one of them is whipped to submission and basically turned into an anger addict, all thanks to the (now renamed for PR reasons) EOMM. If you told me 12 years ago that people will pick a bad game, queue up for rigged matches one after another, force a 50% winrate on everyone through win streaks followed by loss streaks, and do all that willingly, I would have called you a conspiracy theorist. And yet here we are...

I dont understand all this hype for GTA 6.A huge open world isnt impressive by itself anymore like it was in the 2000s. Its just going to be another third person shooter.Yes, it will probably be good because Rockstar has infinite money to throw at it, but this hype like its the second coming of Christ is just insane imo.
>>730843202SKG is insanelt dumb. Imagine thinking that you can't play a game online with one other person entitles some faggot EU bureaucrat to fine the developers so they can use the money to import niggers into Europe
>>730859081It’s mostly being hyped by gun and ball gamers. (Negros)
>>730859081Anon, GTA 5 was already shit and had the exact same rabid following. Normalniggers are retarded
>>730859081They only like calla dooty and NBA
>>730841473They're not played out they're just over emphasised and people have forgotten the value of interesting worlds and ENCOUNTER design. This is most obvious in the soulslike space where every new soulslike tries to make an even more flippy and even more anime version of Artorias, despite Artorias being less than 1% of the original Souls experience, and the rest of their game is just prefab videogame corridors.
>ue5 is good and you're all just bad at gamedev
>>730859081>A huge open world isnt impressive by itself anymoreYou don't understand why normalfags buy open worlds. It's 90% the marketing making them sound like games to get lost in, then they play 10 hours on a weekend and never touch the game again
Hating popular things does not make you an interesting person
>>730841342All FF games are bad.Wind Waker is the best Zelda game.Original Sin 1 is better than 2.6 is the best Armored Core game.Rise is the only good MH game.Destiny 2 is the best coop fps ever made.Roguelites are fun.All CoD games are bad.MH games should have soulslike target lock.Video games shouldn't have tutorials, maps, minimaps, radars, quest markers, quest journals, enemy health bars, and damage numbers.

>>730841342World of warcraft was never good. It released unopposed into a void with no next gen competition. Everquest locusts were just chewing on the dried carcasses of fundamentally older MMOs they didn't even enjoy but destroyed with their presence trying to recreate their containment games past glory. Blizzard isn't stupid, they wanted that EQ faggot cashwad, that's why they brought in Tigule and pals. MMO culture from that point on pivoted to an unsustainable endless cycle of content mills monetized with planned obsolescence. Now you all get the MMOs you fucking deserve, forever. Have fun.

Most of the early PS titles suck cock. Metal Gear, Final Fantasy, Resident Evil, Crash Bandicoot, etc. They were bad then and continue to be bad to this day with sequels and remakes.

>>730860392I don't play MMOs. My initial post was about how much I hate them and you sperged out about it like a closeted EQ fag assblasted about being blamed for why they're so shit now.
>>730841342Activision, EA and Ubisoft actually used to be good game publishers until the videogame industry started outgrossing the movie industry. Once corpo suit faggots noticed how much money there was to be made, it was the start of the domino effect to seeing this seasonal battlepass in-game currency hellhole we have today, where you can buy a game full price but there still has a freemium model.only absolute niggers will defend the modern state of games
>>730860927I love zoomers who somehow think EA got their bad reputation for battlepasses and not for killing dev studios
>>730858325and i'm sure you would have the foreskins go to you instead of being distributed among the people, comrade rabbi?
>>730860927There was a little known hostile takeover of most of the game industry by hollywood, yes. I'm sure a lot of pizza was involved.
>>730841687it is completely possible that the game just isn't for you
Video games can never be art. It is supposed to be a toy for children and it should be treated as such. The only and exclusive purpose of a video game is to be fun to waste time with. If you play games differently, you're a manchild trash too low IQ to sufficiently engage with any other type of media actually aimed at adults. If you make games with a purpose different than pure fun, you're a failed faggot who wasn't good enough to make it the media you truly wanted to create.
>>730861098And since my opinion is objective, that means the game is dogshit.
>>730842106oy vey! owning nothing and being happy, i see
Mass Effect 3 is the best game to replay in the series, because I don't care about the retarded writing when replaying it
Gacha monetization is actually one of the best systems for a live service game because a small group of people with lots of expendable income or incredibly low inhibition will make sure your game keeps going for far longer than it should have. I don't care if it exploits retards, someone else would have exploited them anyway so it may as well benefit me.
>>730841342Dicerolls and success based on fatigue was the absolute best way to handle RPGs and whoever hates it is a gorilla nigger retard.

>>730841342Resident Evil 4 is objectively shit
Video games were the final nail in the coffin for civilisation. It has done irrecoverable damage to us as a species.The Great Filter is unironically Aldous Huxley's Brand New World, and video games is the primary vehicle of it. The savages will fight over the ruins, commandeer our weapons and unleash our chemical and bio weapons on each other rendering much of the planet uninhabitable for life until we are jus an empty rock some other, younger race looks at and theorises life might exist here. Bacteria will survive and will be proof but all other signs of life will be long gone. Just like when we look up at the stars...
Wolfenstein's story should've ended at The New Order.Wolfenstein as a franchise should've ended at The Old Blood.Killing off Blazko at the end of TNO isn't a bad thing and reviving him n+1 times was never a good plot idea.
>>730859081GTA games are funnest when you are with some friends talking about stuff while it sits in the background as a handover on death killing spree simulator. Every now and then some very unlikely interaction occurs like you thread the needle in a helicopter, and everyone spazzes out for a bit before they go back to talking. If you like the stories, just watch all cutscenes and save yourself from the shit mission design of go-to-place-and-kill-goons.
>>730859081Because it's a containment game for a certain archetype of person that keeps them from playing actual good games. With any hope, GTA 6 saps COD and EA markets and they shrivel up and die in the years to come.
>>730860974I was born in 1996 and I know how EA killed studios. But at least they were still putting out decent games from 2008-2014. Literally everything has been dogshit since. >>730861068This all happened in 2007, which was the first year that videogames officially outpaced Hollywood in total revenue.

>>730864861>EA never published anything good, EVERtake your meds, grandpa.
>>730864864>>730864864I would agree with you that fast travel ruins open world games, if it wasn't for Dragon's Dogma or World of Warcraft. Tying fast travel to a resource or making you get to certain points in order to utilize in-lore fast travel purposes is the way to do it. >get quest >fast travel to the nearest location you've discovered, hoofing it the rest of the way >do thing >immediately fast travel back >turn in quest and repeatThis is what kills the soul of games. Kojima-san unironically has it right when he made Death Stranding, in that every second of the game has to be gameplay. You can't just hold W until you get to where you're going. But even New Vegas and *gag* Fallout 3, holding forward was charming with the vanity camera to play with.

>>730841342Deltarune is a disgrace to roleplaying games and fantasy adventures as a whole. I play games where heroes go on an epic quest with the expectation that the heroes will complete that quest.To take that away halfway through and have the "heroes" give up on their quest just because people might die, is to deny the player the bare minimum of a quest to complete.I fear that this is going to infect every adventure game, because millions swarmed out to defend the horrific direction chapter 4 took.They want to ruin my entertainment, and they did it. Heroic quests against evil to save the world are dead.Toby Fox murdered the Hero's Journey and expected me to pay for it. I call that a scam.
>>730841342I'm not even a huge Halo 2 fan, but the Blur remastered cutscenes fucking sucked. Many of the scenes omit seemingly minor details that really added to the world building. Also shaving down the length of certain scenes to speed it up was really gay. Marty was right that the timing matters just as much as the writing and execution.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ovnRJHNxQuE
>>730868512I would say that mounts would be just as effective, because I loved mounts in Hardcore Classic WoW. But Skyrim had horses and I barely ever utilized them. But maybe that's because I could open my map, snap my fingers and after a 40 second loadscreen I would immediately be where I needed to be so I could get my next sloppa radiant quest.In hindsight, the backtracking is the worst part of doing quests pretty much always. I've always wished, in say the Fallout games, that you could just radio in that you cleared a camp of bandits or ghouls or whatever the fuck, and just immediately get your next assignment. Or load up everything from a looted location into a crate, and have your faction haul it to your base so you're not constantly making trips to and from. Especially in Fallout 4 when you're incentivized to hoover up every little thing.Got the Unlimited Companions mod for New Vegas when I got my new computer, and I've gotta say: being able to loot 2 or 3 locations before making the return trip to my hideout was such a gamechanger. Much better than playing on Ps3.

>>730869128This is a joke right? A hero's journey plot archetype usually involves the refusal to the call. It's a staple. Something will come along to force the hero to take action.

>>730841342Woke = badbut seriously, that's would be the opinion of almost everyone
open world ruined what elden ring could’ve been
>>730870513By your claim they will just quit thier journey and the game is over at chapter 4. Speculation is over, chapters 5-7 are cancelled. Go home.
>>730841342Elden rings boss mechanics (the delayed hits) were good and made for better fights that required good reaction and timing.
>>730870791That or something sorted, denying the player the one ending that was promised.I don't want Frodo flying the Eagles to Mordor. I want Frodo walking to Mordor inch by inch with Sam because he said he would.I don't want the ending to change against my will. That's the epic quest being warped for no good reason.
>>730865729you're brown
>>730870513Has any part of Deltarune felt coordinated enough that you really think they can't completely shift the narrative at a moment's notice? Every aspect of that game's story screams lack of direction. Cool music and quirky characters are all Toby is good for.
>>730867660speaking of BFBC2>plane combat in battlefield games is objectively dogshit and adds absolutely nothing of value to a infantry based tactical shooter. Helicopters and UAVs are alright.

>>730851601Faggots like you are why I hate anime so much.Something about it draws in the gayest smug cunts in the world. Pressing a button to kill everyone that worships anime really would radically improve planet Earth by several magnitudes.
>>730871029There was a point where Frodo said he didn't want to throw the ring in Mt. Mordor. He tried giving it to the fellowship or something like that and they told him the temptation would be too great and he had to do it himself. There is the exact same plot device used in your example where the hero is discouraged and refuses to do the task until convinced otherwise. If you have so little faith in Toby Fox's story telling ability then why did you even start the game? Seems to me like you're over analyzing and nitpicking stuff. Not saying he's a great story teller, but there's zero reason to believe the story is just gonna end and the party gives up and goes home permanently when faced with a reason to refuse the call.

>>730841473The DLC adds a boss fight lol
>>730852071for me, its pacing, as well as scalable difficulty.run away from all random encounters, and the game becomes a lot more enjoyable. resource management, and actually maximizing the games features/gimmicks.felt the same as FF7.but if u fight 90% of the random encounters, then the game is too easy, and u just attack/potion the whole game. (0 grind)but the pacing is where they both shine. u almost never do filler content. and the random weird things they throw at you, are to break up the monotony of the "samey" gameplay. (mostly a type of minigame)FF1-5 and FF8+ dont do this. FF8 just had 1 mini game, and wanted it to last the whole game, same with FF9. imo, didnt break up the monotony as well.so only ff6 and ff7 managed to stop me from getting bored from that alone.also ff1-5, and 8+ makes u fight random encounters for the games balance (8 is questionable, but still not as balanced as 6/7) so they werent as enjoyable since i was forced to do random encounters, probably the worst part about RPGs/any game (trash mobs in action games).
