STOPHATINGGAMES
nu/v/ board culture is all about beating into people that talking about obscure games is shilling. It is only natural that OCD level flaming of bad looking new games overtakes actual vidya discussion.
>>735068748>WHY ARE PEOPLE CALLING OUR PLASTIC TRANNY GAME BAD?????????
>>735068881To be fair, there ARE games that have been legit shilled here, starting with the first Borderlands game. Still, you do have a point.
Maybe it's because the game has been out for like 2 weeks and reviewers still wont write anything about it.
AAA publishers lost control over the narrative and might never get it back.Turns out the beaten dog bites back at some point.
I'm having a blast hating on marathon!
>>735068748I don't hate games, I spent the weekend on them. Woke games, AAA-slop and especially the combination of the two? Yeah I don't like those.
Journos/paid shills getting mad about about people laughing at a AAA game's downfall give off this energy.
>>735068748>Don't buy a game>Journos seethe uncontrollablyThat's literally how a consumer is supposed to behave in a free market economy. Why are they like this?
>>735068748So what is his brilliant explanation? No I am not giving clicks to your article.
But I'm not even doing anything, why is everyone getting mad at me?
>>735068748STOPMAKINGTHEMSHIT
>>735068748Didn't ask for your opinion piece "journalist"
Blastsisses... why wont they announce sales milestones..
>>735069367>free market economyThey don't like that at all. Especially the free part.
>>735069428>18k in gameCope
>>735068748They'll never get it, will they? No matter how much money they throw into *guaranteed* flops, they'll never understand. It's like the purposefully ignore the market. That's what happens when the only thing you have is money you don't know what to do with.
>>735068748>bungie super shill seething
>please stop hating my unofficial contracted boss, my entire journalist career depends on their success because ive been shilling for them for my entire life for free
Is there any other industry where customers are blamed for products failing, or is this unique to the gaming industry?
>>735069367>Free marketMost of them are commies, they hate the free market.
>>735068897why are you incels so anti-semetic. jobs are at steak!
>>735069581>Is there any other industry where customers are blamed for products failing, or is this unique to the gaming industry?It also happens with communism.
So, uh, what's the appeal in hating as entertainment? I don't get it. If I don't like something I just don't engage with it.
>>735068748Paul Tassi is an unironic Bungie shill. You should ignore him.
>>735068748>Paul TassiLMAO
>>735069581Movies do it constantly. Anything with gorillions of marketing dollars they can throw at paid shills/marketers to deflect blame.
>>735069631making fun of corpos is always fun
>>735068748That's actually a pretty good article that answers the question in its title.
>>735069034Shhhh, stop noticing things. Consume.
>>735069626>alsoTassi is a commieI think it’s time we start up McCarthyism again
every time you laugh at a game flopping a California leftist loses their job
>>735069034I mean, it'd happen anyway, but that doesn't help. Such obvious bias just pisses people off even more.It's a bit refreshing they don't even bother trying to conceal how corrupt they are anymore though. More normies are noticing it.
>>735069581Hollywood does it all the time. The latest Charlie's Angel is a good example. They literally told men not to watch it and when the movie bombed, they blamed men for not watching it.
>>735069631and yet here you are, engaging with a thread you don't like.
Woke won btw
>>735069841>award show known for glazing black people gives a meaningless award to a black guy in a movie about killing KKK membersYup, totally organic.
>>735069841>Wokies crowned 'One woke after another' most woke at the Sunday's Wokerswow.
>>735069659kek
>>735069926>>735069952Woke always wins btw
>>735069631People have been vocal about their issues and they were ignored by the industry.Now the industry is crashing and burning so people brought out their popcorn.Its great to see dogshit fail because videogames arent being created and released in a vacuum. Bad games and practices succeeding has a negative compound effect.
>>735069631I do just that, then get yelled at for not wanting to play something or be part of generic marketing hype waves. Then things fail and I get yelled at again, when I did nothing.
>>735070043Bingo.
>>735068748>STOP>HATING>GAMESuh?
>>735070025>I shoved a big dildo up my ass thus I winDo wokies really?
>>735069631>If I don't like something I just don't engage with it.Why are you in this thread then?
>>735069978I can't remember if Godfall was the one made by platinum or the one made by randy pitchford
>>735069631I'd rather buy 10 copies of Dual Override than play live service slop with predatory loot boxes and soulless esports pandering "gameplay".
>>735068748The raping shall continue until bungie is no more
>>735068748I don't even hate it. I nothing it.
>>735069581Other than anime (that also somewhat got worse since the 00s) the global media became liquid shit. They all blame the customer every time.
>>735069581The western comics book industry. Part of the reason manga has been eating their lunch for years now.
>>735069428
>>735070527sucks frakes project isnt doing as well as he wants it todid anyone tell him that broadcast standards are drastically different from what it was back in the 90s and that's primarily why his project might not be so well received?
>>735070527Why do they not see they’re shitting on literally everything?We even have a from dusk til dawn rip off winning Oscar’sA fucking schlock filmCommies have enshitified everything
>>735068748Not wanting to buy a game because it looks lame and uninteresting doesn't equal hate.
>>735070686To them, it's basically a holocaust.
>>735068748live serviceslop, bungie and every other western developer deserve hate
>>735069661>>735069816>>735070527>>735070581Hmm, and what do they all have in common? (((Investors))) who don't care about the quality of the product, only its message.
>>735070664Frakes isn’t really involved creatively with Starfleet Academy. He’s just a stock episode director, as he had been for 40 years. But the show has terrible writing and every Star Trek alum knows this. There’s no way you can be alive to witness al the golden ages of television and still think this show has anything going for it. It’s a show that was pitched and rejected by all the major studios before Paramount decided to launder it through the Star Trek brand.
>>735070813Hey, pattern recognition is very antisemitic.
>>735068748Stop making concord-likes, then we can talk
>>735068748>reboot single player FPS known for its complex story as multiplayer cash grab>DURR WHY DO PEOPLE HATE THIS
>>735068748make a good game then
>>735068748Okay.>People ignore the game instead of openly hating it>game still fails>"WHYD IT FAIL GAMERS?!"Fuck you.
>>735070974Then it's "why are gamers ignoring our games?"You can't win with these people
>>735070527
>>735068881>obscure games like Marathon, made by Bungie and with marketing funded by Sony
>>735070527jonathan frakes was the director of star fleet?sad to see.seeing the state of current media is "dimensionally more painful" than in the Next Generation years.
If hating a game is more fun and interesting than playing the game, that is the fault of the people who made the game, not the consumers who decided they didnt like it.
>>735071067godawful reading comprehension. please go back and get a GED.
>>735069321you don’t need to explain the image while posting it this isn’t redditbook
I can't believe Forbes has the nerve to ask you to pay to read their slop
>>735071283What is GED?
>>735069926>movie about killing KKK membersWhat? I can’t remember if they’re literally Klan members but the racist guys show up to get shot at the end the rest is just vampires. At least make fun of it for things that are true.
>>735070043When devs churn out slop, tell you you can't complain because IT'S NOT FOR YOU/MUH TROLLS/etc and it crashes and burns and they blame you for it, it's the greatest feeling besides sex
>>735068748I didn't do anything. I don't hate Marathon. I simply don't care about it. Extraction shooters just don't interest me at all.
I did nothing
>>735071871Fuck you chud, the devs worked hard on this. You can at least give it a try and probably have a blast
>>735071638The white people are literally KKK members. Hell, MBJ even asks if they are and they say so.
>>735069034Review embargo until mid-season content launchNot even joking, that's the reason.
>>735070527can't wait for the next star trek game
Most people who care about popularity and player numbers are probably tourists just looking for the next big laughing stock they can join the mob in making fun of.
Stop making bad games
Marathon is better than the sum of its parts for sure, but they handicapped themselves by using the ugliest parts they could findIf they had kept the destiny asthetic instead of random text on everything it would have easily hit 200-300k players
>>735071638He is not lying, hogwood (racist guy) is the head of the local klan in the movie
>>735072031holy kino
>>735069631The past 20 or so years of gaming has been shiting on people who played games before they became mainstream and saying tgey are no longer the core audience. They deserve to be ridiculed
>>735068748>Paul TassiVideo Game "Journalism" really only has 3-4 shit stirrers left, huh?Once they're gone it's finally over.
>>735072402These people were literally bragging on social media that they got their grubby gay commie hands on video games and that they were gonna take them away from the scary incel chuds with glee. Now AAA games are flopping all over the fucking place and the console space is shrinking. 18-24 year old zoomers, THE prime audience for this gay shit, spent 25% less on games last year than in 2024. Be careful what you wish for!The problem is, publishers are mostly ran by retards who told the good old devs to fuck off because they were too expensive and hired a bunch of young, inexperienced devs in their place cause they were cheaper. The ones with actual talent fucked off once they realized they could do indie dev or work in any other industry instead for higher pay without needing to crunch. The only ones who stick around have an agenda and/or are retarded. Meanwhile marketing is whispering in the CEO's ears that yes, of course gamers want more gay niggers in their games and HR is saying we need to hire more women. The people at the top just believe anything they're told in this industry because they don't video play games and don't know anyone who do, so what should they care if a few games flop. Hell, the company could go bankrupt and they could still get out nicely with a golden parachute. The whole industry is clearly fucked and you can only keep coping it's not a larger trend for so long. It's gonna crash and burn soon.Just to remind people, Sony spent 3.4 billion on Bungie, whose only game at the time, Destiny 2, is bleeding players and Marathon is not making up the difference. It's not flopping hard enough to kill the studio anywhere as fast as Concord, but if their social media hasn't even celebrated a million sales yet, that's cause for concern. I'd be surprised if the studio will last until 2028.
>>735072751Gone them, you'll have ai stirrers shitting 50 articles per day.
>>735072031:o
>>735072402You can still make games for non-gamers and be a huge success. People bought Switches and now Switch 2s in droves for Animal Crossing and Pokopia. People who have never held a gamepad in their lives sunk dozens or hundreds of hours into Stardew Vally. If your product makes people feel good, they will spend money on it.
>>735069631Dumbest post of 2026 so far.
>>735069631We do both round hereAnd this is the only way to remove the cancer from gaming
you have to admit it's pretty odd behaviour
>>735068748We must be better gamers
>>735072786>These peoplereally?
>>735068748>hate>not giving a fuck is hating it and somehow also economic terrorismT-thanks I guess.
>>735068748You hate games i like. I hate your games. Simple as.
>>735071975Must have missed that but the vampire thing supersedes that as far as “what it’s about”>>735072226Right but he was in the movie so little I barely recognized him as an antagonist.Still woke as fuck I just didn’t think the KKK was a driving force of the film.
>>735069602
>>735068748>hatingThe existence of this game has zero impact on my life in all scenarios of this universe
>>735068748Why the fuck woul you unironically read forbes? They solely exist for damage control, market manipulation and advertising
>>735068897Why are you shit posting about a game you never played?
>>735074394what
>>735070527"Hmm I wonder why Fan Hate is worse now (when we shit in peoples mouths) than it was before (when we gave them things they liked)? I guess it's the fault of those nasty trolls!"
