Post casualization disguised as ''accessibility''
>>736782815how is this any different from playing the game on youtube
there is nothing wrong with baking in a level select that is available from a new game.
>>736782904I feel like that's spiritually very different from a "skip to next cutscene" option
>>736782815The new metal gear remake has an auto save feature so whenever you die you can reload the area
>>736782815>single player gameWho cares
What do you mean the game is slow parryslop? Just speed up the game bro it's there in the options...
>>736783241Hack Fraudman... Don't cry...
>yet another sweatlord complaining about others having fun
was there an option to skip a longer ride in GTA San Andreas if you failed the mission or am I making it up? I just remember the word SKIP in a GTA font in the corner of the screen
>>736782956I care about function, not "spirit". I play video games rather than get mad about them.
>>736783241one of my favorite memesfucker got too complacent again with that Sony money. DS2 was a bore and a chore and the writing was abysmal
The 2D movement option in Silent Hill 2 and Resident Evil remake HD. Onimusha HD having 2D movement on the analog stick that you can't disable.
>>736783359And DS1 wasn't?That gook hasn't made a good game in over 15 years
>>736783384>And DS1 wasn't?Correct. I have fond memories of it
>>736783330You just reminded me how fucking atrocious old GTA mission structure was.
>>736783241>zesty niggerman laughing at him>vile shlomo in the backgroundi love environmental storytelling
>>736783430The only thing old GTA games have over 5 is the ambience
>>736783241Looks way better if angled like this, it's more ''cinematic'' ya know
>>736783292>>736783331>>736783101>>736782904Zoomers were a mistake. And it's gotten even worse since they think they're old enough to talk to adults now.
Don't make your own decisions goy. We know what's best for you
>>736783430Are you suggesting it improved at some point?
>>736783584Other than checkpoints, no.
>>736783503>install retro shooter>open in-game console>type map xx>get to skip to whatever part of the game i pleasethis is what you're arguing against
>>736783549that's actually a good one
>>736783727This option should only be available if you beat the game
>>736782815I used cheats to beat games when I was a kid, why not simply call it that?
>>736783549You are subhuman cattle if you even considered playing that piece of shit to begin with
>>736782815>Also, you will not receive a normal evaluation for imaginary victories.
>>736783330Yes but it's nonsense which missions get it and which don't. I assume it was a late addition after some of the worst offending missions were already complete.
>>736783727that's not what's happening in the OP pic at all though?
>>736783778>install game on new machine>can't skip the intro levels, or past that gimmicky mission, or straight to the chaotic level that used to always lag your old pc>>736783860it's close enough. functionally they are both skipping gameplay.
>>736782815there’s legit not one thing in either of those games that’s hard, i can’t imagine how mentally retarded you would have to be to need that feature. whoever did should literally just suicide in respect of mankind
>>736782815>game journos dont need to actually play the games anymorenothing changes
>>736783875The one in the OP seems only marginally less tedious than playing the game normally. Its barely useful as a level select
>>736784173there is room for improvement but it is better than nothing. also the framing of "imagine you won" is funny
>>736784000The one who should kill himself is the one who adds such ''features''
>>736782815The new "castlevania" game is removing contact damage because faggot zoomers can't handle slight difficulty
>>736783331>I care about function, not "spirit".So you don't have a soul, as i suspected.
>>736783727back in the day you'd only get to know that stuff after you've played the game a bunch
>>736784624>calling anyone else soulless when you're getting mad that you can skip a boss fight in a kojimbo delivery simulator
>>736782815i like this, it's the right amount of condescending
monster hunter died when they rewarded you a tail without having to cut it off
>>736782873It's actually way worse than playing the game on YouTube. A person may choose to watch the game on YouTube because they don't have a PC/console to run the game or they don't have the money to spend to buy the game. Using this kind of shit is worse because the person actually bought the game and choose to not play it.
>>736783503I am a god damn lazy no good whiny muh-lenial for Christ's sake. Get it right. And quit with the zoomer hate. It's tiring.
>>736784959Remember when there was an option to disable puzzles in the iOS port of 999?That game was already insufferable trash, then they somehow made it into even less of a game.
>>736784816Skipping the final boss fight is pretty funny. He gives you a big rant on how disappointed he is that you're skipping his fight.>Come on Say-um, dontcha have it in ya?
Minimalist UIOnline Multiplayer becomes the focus of the gameMovie gameThis is the big 3
>>736782873The Snoy paid for this. That's how it is worse
>>736783718Checkpoints were a big improvement but I was pretty baffled it took until GTA5 to get some. Saints Row 2 perfected the sandbox city mission structure in 2008 for fuck's sakes.
>>736782815chips challenge let you skip levels if you kept dying like 20 years ago faggot kojima didn't invent shit stop deepthroating his cock so hard it needs to be tagged with all_the_way_through
>>736783727There's a difference between looking up how to do that and the game directly offering you the choice.
>>736783430>new mission since then>Go from A to B>Kill X with Weapon Y>Do anything else, you lose.>but boy, will you have some fancy cinematics.
>>736783549I like this, "choices" in generic action adventure are garbage, you pick among generic lines of dialogue and the cutscene plays basically the sameIf my choices in gameplay and story doesn't influence the outcomes significantly i'd rather play the canon version without pausing the exposition to let me read 3 interchangeable options
>>736782815Why even play the game at that point?
>>736783137Lessen the parry window for awhile struggle hard, then return it to normal. Then you'll parry on normal no problem. It's what I do if I find myself lagging to parry.
>>736783330By making me do the same ride you don't test my skill, you test my patience and waste my timeIt's the equivalent of putting a checkpoint before an unskippable cutscene
>>736782815>Post casualization disguised as ''accessibility''You already posted it, the changes of 'S' to 'Z' and the dropping of U's in English (Simplified) is dogshit accessibility cope
>>736782815I don't see the problem with this, plenty of games have easy modes. This one's honest enough to call it an imaginary victory, you'd think people here would consider that based. Are you just ragging on it cause it's by kojima?
>>736782815This isn't accessibility it's an anti-frustration feature.Only game "journalists" call it accessibility to hide their dislike of actually playing games.
>>736782815I'm in favour of this because, while it allows a casual or bad player to still progress with the game, they get humiliating messages to let them know that they suck.
>>736782815WoW is having a tranny fest apparently, this is a sign of casualisation
>>736782815this is just the modern version of "this difficulty selection portrays you as a toddler"you get this toxic positivity humiliation ritual instead
>>736783503>they think they're old enough to talk to adults nowhow old do they have to be
>it's actually le based it has this funny messageKojima dicksuckers have no spine it's unreal, they see a genuine a bad practice and they still open wide and eat his feces, it's pathetic
Isn't the pretend you beat it option only a thing on the toddler difficulty setting ?
>>736783331>I play video games rather than get mad about them.Apparently not if you're skipping through them lmao
>>736787263>seething about something as common as difficulty optionsjust admit you have kojima derangement syndrome bro
>>736782815I've been playing DS2 and have died a couple times in boss battles and never seen this message. Must only be on easy mode.
>>736782815Konami vindicated, they were right in booting that fraud
>>736784272Contact damage has no place in modern games fag
>>736787224At least 45.
>>736782815the new resident evil has constant retarded popup ''tips'' that ruin immersion, stuff that you can understand without their retarded ''tips''
>>736782815just because the game gives you easymode as an option doesn't mean you have to pick it
>>736788223no you don't get it kojima literally invented difficulty sliders that can be changed mid game nobody thought of that before he did.
>pretend I bought:)
>>736787320if that fight is dogshit i would like the choice to skip it, man. what's hard to grasp about that?
>>736787263Holy shit, this whole time I thought these were edited images to mock the actual skip feature. Are you telling me it actually says "Pretend you won" in the game?
>>736787320Bodied that cazzie
>>736782815from a commercial perspective it makes sense. it lets people who're too stupid to press buttons watch the cutscenes and makes the studios moneyin the old days, this would be the equivalent to inputting an instant win code, or infinite health+ammo+time
>>736789282let me guess, everything that gives you even the slightest bit of resistance is "dogshit"
>>736784272If the game has animations for enemies specifically differing between attacks and passive standing or resting, then the latter should not hurt you.
>>736789282Even a bad fight can become memorable in its own way. Bed of Chaos.
>>736782815Every opportunity to skip content in DS2, to its credit, is made to make you feel bad about using the option to skip. It even says "Pretend you won."
>>736791946To your credit you are trying really hard to huff your own farts even though you got no spine
>>736786717Not 100% true. If the checkpoint is too convenient, you're far more likely to say "whatever, I'll die and try again"If the checkpoint is inconvenient, you'll try harder to stay alive, and spend resources you otherwise wouldn't.Doesn't really apply to GTA in particular I guess, but that's because GTA is shit, but there's merit to boredom as punishment in general.
>>736783047Does that fuck with ranking?
>>736792618No, you can get big boss rank without saving once and just relying on auto save
>>736782815playing league of legends
>>736782873>you're playing the rest of the game>you control the pace of the experience>you choose where to go and how long you spend on things>can do it at a higher level of quality, especially since YT has built-in compression
>>736792809>>you're playing the rest of the gamewhat game? you just pretended you won>>you control the pace of the experiencewhat pace? you just pretended you won>>you choose where to go and how long you spend on thingsgo where? you just pretended you won>>can do it at a higher level of qualitydo what? you just pretended you won
>>736791521That's the worst exemple you could've picked
>>736786675Or devs could stop putting gay ass parry mechanics into every fucking game
>>736784937That happened before you were born
>>736787941The fact that turboshitters like you continue to get filtered by it is proof that it does.
>>736782815this, fuck you Crapcom!!
>>736793069I suggest you actually give Death Stranding a playthrough sometime. The vast majority is just the deliveries, not these boss battles.
>>736782815i played the game last week, died a bunch of times and never saw thisthis is 100% some shit you get on easy mode only
>>736782904What a crazy thing to say. You should never have a level select available on first playthrough. That completely destroys any structure the game had.
>>736783549>"canon" choice picks the worst options, like having sex with the gay niggerDevilish
>>736783426And I had a good time with DS2. Checkmate, atheist. You just want streamlined AAAslop. You've literally become a domesticated consumer slave.
>>736783727There's absolutely nothing wrong with that, but that's something that you usually do if you're already familiar with the game already and are looking to replay something.As opposed to skipping gameplay entirely, I'd prefer if games just used a cheat handicap that made you invincible and an AI/Dev-Replay that completes the section for you and shows you what to do. Those are good anti-frustration features for less skilled players that still force them to engage with or learn the game.Atleast then, you still interacting enough with the game to be able to make up an opinion about it instead of just sucking off the story like someone who watched a let's play.
>>736782815What’s actually wrong with it if it’s a single player game and the option doesn’t give anyone a competitive advantage over anyone else? Is there a lot of reputation riding on whether someone beat death stranding 2 boss fights in some bizarre circle?>>736782954this pic makes me lol out loud
>>736793814Nah not playing a turd disguised as a movie
>>736782815Cheats would work better than this shit. Just give us cheats.
>>736795435But that wouldn't give players the sense of accomplishment like just making the game piss-easy.
>>736795435That would be $6.99 + Tip
