So, what *makes* a good RPG?
muh choices of course, lots of muh choices. like multiple choice quiz
>>731911886List his points so I don't give this articleslop any clicks.
>gay sexlmao
>>731911886niggers and gay sex
>>731911979Are you able to go one sentence without saying slop?
>>731911886Jewish representations
>>731911886Submitting to journalists in fear of getting negative articles written about you.
>>731911886The players choices have to matter in the story and in character building. Respecs are not something good RPGs have.Level and skill cap so that the player can't forever grind to max out every skill.Deep faction system that lets you experience the story from a different perspective.
Freedom in character building as well as in the ways you can approach and solve various quests/events/situations. Which is why, btw, I find it difficult to count JRPGs as RPGs at all.
>>731911886Why it's opportunities for gay sex of course
>>731911886Being able to whack people.
Owning the chuds while making mad bank
https://archive.ph/Oi95HRemember to never check out an article posted on 4chan. Archive the link to disincentivize shilling and clickbait. In this case Vavra is just shilling his game since the only thing the average gaer knows about it is that it's gay.
>FREEDOM IS MOST IMPORTANT THING IN RPG>can I kill black guy and not side with Jews?>NOSo much for freedom
>>731911886I kinda hate the second map. Nothing is organically tied together. It's almost a ubisoft gaym.
It sold just 4mil, which is abysmally low for AAA with a publisher.And considering they had an established audience of 10mil, they actually lost 6mil over adding gayniggerjews.There is no growth here to be seen, and that is extremely embarrassing for a AAA sequel with a popular studio name to be outdone by it's own smaller budget and zero name indie debut like this.Shills say KCD2 needs 4 more years to reach the sales of KCD1 (5 years total), and it's just not showing confidence in the game at all. And that went up from the previous prediction of "it will outsell the first game in just a couple of years".Watch, if you ask a shill when he thinks KCD2 will reach 5mil sales he will start spamming about rdr2 and cp2077 for no reason other than to run away from the question.KCD2 insider shill gets outed -> arch.b4k.dev/v/thread/731612384Reminder KCD2 was shilled by Asmongold, McConnel, Rev, Nox, Endymion and other chud youtubers Reminder they were hiding the gayniggerjew shit as much as they canReminder Vavra was deflecting from answering questions about it by only aggroing onto people he could dig some dirt onReminder the release window was trump victory and all the chuds were preparing to celebrate with this game as one giant fuck you to wokeReminder it could have skyrocket the sales into close to 15mil Reminder you fucked it up and lost all momentum and good willReminder you will never post the dlc sales for KCD2 because the game has zero retention
a good RPG has kotor and kotor 2 in its soul
>>7319142591. They literally made profit 2. 10 people didn't buy the first game because of some tweet with 200 likes
>>731911886For them? Propaganda.
>>731914259oyyy veyyyyyyyyyyy how dare you, anti-semite. delete this post!
>>731914259>And considering they had an established audience of 10mil, they actually lost 6mil over adding gayniggerjews.... at $5 most of the time.
>>731911886I don't think they know. KCD2 was mid as fuck and very gay.
>>731914259>It sold just 4mil, which is abysmally low for AAA with a publisher.>And considering they had an established audience of 10mil, they actually lost 6mil over adding gayniggerjews.Add onto this that sequels often outperform original releases when the original is popular, it seriously went wrong.>>731914582You forgot sales tax, and then corporation tax. They might not have hit $60m.That's sometimes fine in today's economy because studios are owned by companies with infinite money like Microsoft or are given investor money based on social credit, not sales performance.
>>731916336>You forgot sales tax, and then corporation tax. They might not have hit $60m.I think they are probably close to that because no way their marketing budget was 20 mil >Add onto this that sequels often outperform original releases when the original is popular, it seriously went wrong.Well it did selling twice as much in the same time frame >something wrong with itwould've been true if the reception outside of v and codex was negative and player count was in the gutter
a good ruleset that reacts to your build progression and combat decisions. fun problem solving in combat and resources to manage across encounters. KDC is not an RPG. adventure mechanics like quest design and choices/consequences are secondary and unnecessary. "player freedom" is a spook as games are build around the limitations of what you can do, not giving you total control.
>>731916461>no way their marketing budget was 20 milDo you mean you think it was more or less?I'd also ask what the 40m is supposed to include.>selling twice as muchThen that's a good sign the sequel popularity correlation is true. The total sales is not.>negative reception and low player countAnon, I don't think anyone's arguing it didn't sell, we're trying to ask if it's like when EA says "This game is being shut down because we sold only 5bn copies and so failed to make any money".
>>731911886Not niggers and fags, that's for sure
What makes a cool RPG is being able to fight orcs and dragons and ghosts and throw lightning bolts and fireballs, so KCD2 doesn’t have any of that so it’s not a good RPG. Who the hell wants a pure historical setting with no magic and only human enemies? Paradox map painter autists?
>>731916515>a good ruleset that reacts to your build progression and combat decisions. fun problem solving in combat and resources to manage across encounters.Those are imsims and ARPGS
>>731914057karla still owes me footjobs
>>731916615>I'd also ask what the 40m is supposed to include.Production cost> The total sales is not.Yeah that's true but it took KCD1 7 year and 5 dollar price tag and despite all the added polishing it's still not that normie friendly >Anon, I don't think anyone's arguing it didn't sell, I think Anon is arguing that it's this massive disaster when it's not It would've sold about the same amount of copies without all the woke shit because KCD is a niche game
>>731916642I mean a turn based ruleset. imsims and ARPGs also aren't RPGs as they have an action foundation instead of a ruleset
>>731911886Is it Homosexuals, Niggers and Jews? lol KCD2 is such a joke.
>>731916794Alright fair
>Bait thread>Tourist replies Name a better duo
