This is literally the only good game of the generation so far
>>736794052Nothing even comes to close to being as good as Elden Ring.
>>736794052Why haven't you played it yet?
>>736794052You're forgetting about Armored Core 3 and Final Fantasy 16
What about psychonauts 2? I had a kiiii playing it with my polycule
>>736794052i enjoyed astro bot more
>>736794052Debate me
Baiting?I like the game but it is no Sekiro
>>736794302>helldiversbahahahahahahaAstro Bot is far better than that anon, you need to do better.
>>736794052one of the worst games ive played past 10 years unironically
>>736794052It came out on last gen consoles.
>>736794052>rollslop>input reading>enemies delaying attacks for sometimes 10 seconds straight to create the goofiest, most immersion breaking animations ever>easy anti-cheat>forced chromatic aberration>forced vignette>quests still failing if you dare to explore this open-world game because NPCs are psychic and can immediately tell if you entered another zoneThis shit ain't no masterpiece
>>736794496>astroflop
>>736794462>thing>thing (but in Japan)
>>736794302Good picks
>>736794302>zelda sloplol
>>736794302you...
>>736794302No Madden?
>>736794052Terrible replayability though. ER is fun for one playthrough and one playthrough only.
>>736794176everyone forgot FFXVI
>>736794176FF16 sneak
>>73679405270% of the game is needlessly big empty space you have to walk through.Why do people love doing nothing in games so much? You can do nothing without having a game running.
>>736794302wrong,also why bother before 2000 ?
>>736798813kill yourself
>>736798773The DLC is even worse because 80% is empty space that is intentionally confusing to traverse
>>736798848it isn't in my nature also you are a zeldafag.i'd rather kill you instead
>>736798773It's really dismal that the best game of the generation is an open world game but which does open world really poorly but is still a 10/10 for the linear level legacy dungeon sections. You'd think we would have perfected the open world formula by now after all the million games for two generations, but we're really only in "DUDE NO Q MARKERS IT'S A MASTERPIECE" tier at best. If you'd told kid me in 2006 that Oblivion's janky ass radiant ai will still be the most ambitious ai 20 years later he'd have thought I was pulling his leg.
>>736794496It can't be THAT good.
>>736800718Despite its million flaws Gothic 3 has done open world itself better than most games because despite the map being relatively large you don't have and don't need quest markers because you get by with way descriptions due to the world being handcrafted. ER has shit like "go find this mage dude lol" and he ends up being hidden behind the only illusionary moutain wall in the entire game that is 3x the size of Skyrim and 95% of players just looked that shit up
>>736794961>this casul doesn't guard counter
>>736794052It's almost a shame it got so popular, that was a lot of casual shitters wanting to be included and they still seethe
not even the best souls game
>>736805701the game is full of casual pandering though, it's only hard if you play like a /v/ retard that only uses a giant sword with no magic or summons or spirits
>4 years of non-stop seethe>4 years of discord raids and daily ass-hurt threads>4 years of transvestite assblasting>4 years of copewe can't stop winning
>>736794052Its genuinely the worst fucking dogshit Fromshit has done before Nightreign
>>736805764wtf do you mean not even the best? Its not in the top 10 lmao
From cultism is real because even before any gameplay footage from this game was shown there were anons here already calling it a masterpiece. I'm not even kidding
you guys killed all the (((merchants))) too right?
>>736794302>Skyrim is 15 years oldIt can't be true... where has time gone, bros?
>>736806198>>736806261>>736806264the discord found the threadfound a photo of them (males)
>>736806296noooo my chosen people
>>736794961Anyone who whines about input reading, attack tracking, or anything else that gives the CPU an "unfair" advantage is a fucking retard that's the whole point of PvE
Everyone claims it to be a masterpiece which isn't but I didn't say it wasn't a good game either.
Both BotW and TotK were better. I know people will be mad about it, but it doesn't change things.
>>736806512BotW is dogshit.
>>736806512hi tendies! i thought you guys had school?
>>736798590it's because of this >>736798773I would rather replay DeS or DS1 at SL1 15 times in a row than replay ER
>>736806198This.
>>736806741>doesn't turn tight enough even though unlike modern-slop the game allows you to>dies from his own mistake>this is the game's problempottery
>>736806741>try to ride a horse on a narrow ledge at full gallop>fall off like a retard"wooooow really ok"
>>736794052>>736794141Dark Souls II is much better, though.
>>736794302This is fine only if cyberpunk is allowed to be retroactively GOTY because it certainly wasn't IN 2020
>>736806741>bro can't even turn a corner without dying
>>736806006For all the game's problems it's still worth playing more than 99% of other games today and has more imagination in it than pretty much all other modern media
>>736807086It literally has worse writings and less imaginative setting than fucking Skyrim. Get your head together Fromtard and actually play a complex and in-dept game once in your life.
>>736807313hat's an in-dept game, ESL-kun?
>>736807313It absolutely does not, the world and characters of Elden Ring are far more inventive than most other modern media let alone Skyrim
>>736794052I liked the SH2 remake myself
Nice hat.
>>736807313nah dude this>>736807086 completely mogs everything that bethesda has ever made>but muh lorebackground lore is meaningless if your game is the blandest flavour of fantasy on the market
>>736807313Skyrim could never, TESpiggy
>>736806932I'm a Dark Souls 2 enjoyer (mostly for the atmosphere) and I think ER a better executed DS2
>>736807086>fog and distant structures = game of the generation
>>736807313>skyrim>complex and in-depthwhat are they teaching these kids at school these days?
>>736794302Bloodborne is better than Witcher 3
>>736806485Defending lazy design is typical /v/ shit I suppose, keep eating that shit piggu
>>736806815>>736806865Funny thing is, I didn't as much as imply that the webm is a proof of the game being bad yet the Fromcultists jumped on me to defend it (from what?). Insane people.This pic however, it describes ER to a T.
>>736807434Favourite room has to be the entrance office for the hospital, I see it as a reflection of the early days of hope when Mary was getting treatment.2nd fav is "The Bedroom" in the apartments, since for people who played the original, you could tell structurally that it was the same bedroom like the one James and Mary had. The bed and room where Mary was smothered included.
>>736794302>CyberpunkInsane how people memory holed that launch and all the insane promises they made when they finally stabilized the game into a futuristic GTA clone
>>736807864>the whole is only the sum of the partswrong, im sorry i know its not a popular opinion but the only reason "open world BAD" is a popular opinion on this board is because zoomers fetishize older games (despite not playing them) and thus have never developed hallway-murder fatigueopen world games (can be) good and elden ring does it well
>>736794052overhyped, it's evidence of fromsofts shallow game design>how do we make the game harder?>idk add more retarded stops and starts to animations, add more AoE's, make things not match the model, etc>SUBARASHI, put it into the game and then make it less shit after people complain about it, because we don't play our own games after allthe bosses just aren't satisfying anymore, they don't hide the fact that i'm literally waiting for my turn and "memorizing" gay moves that won't help me fight any other enemy
>>736794052>stutter
>>736807619>>736807485>>736807475>>736807416Notice the Fromtards literally and unironically have 0 retort or any in-depth explanation as to why ER has good writings or is better than the fucking Elder Scroll series. That's because deep down they know From's retarded pseudo-babble is dogshit writing for toddlers who can't read. Vivec's Sermon alone mogs the entirety of Soulsborne writing puts together.
>>736808019who filtered you anon?
>>736808019Explain to me again how Queelag teaches you how to fight Ornstein and Smough and you aren't just memorizing moves and avoiding AoEs.
>>736806485the point is it's supposed to be subtle and not immersion breakingthey literally had bugs where enemies would animation cancel to hit you when you take a sip, they have extreme lunges that let them slide retarded lengths just so they can hit you while you take a sipthe game has become so fucking gay it isn't even funny, can't have a fucking sip in neutral even if you build distance because EVERY boss and EVERY enemy has some retarded lunge, just like EVERY boss and EVERY enemy has a retarded crack head mode where they can 100 to 0 your health bar if you dare think of trying to trade(they have ridiculous poise despite wearing literal rags and cloth)
>Notice the Fromtards literally and unironically have 0 retort or any in-depth explanation as to why ER has good writings or is better than the fucking Elder Scroll series.

Vivec's Sermon alone mogs the entirety of Soulsborne writing puts together.>YOU HAVE TO RESPOND TO ME, YOU HAVE TO ENGAGE, YOU HAVE TO GIVE ME (YOU)S!nah ur wrong
>>736807996>open world games (can be) good and elden ring does it wellFromtard has yet to explain how the move from Hub-based non-linear level design to bland open world is a good game decision(it's not).
>>736808078Story is the least important part of a game
>>736794302Faggot
>>736808175Yep, it's a skill issue, and a big one at that
>>736807996Nobody compartmentalizes every single mechanic found in a game to then decide whether it's good or not. Is Elden Ring's open world dogshit for me? Yes, yes it is. So the game itself is shit too.Fucking Dragon's Dogma on PS3 did the ARPG open slop better and it was a half-realized pseudo-dungeon crawler.
>>736808201>no argument foundi accept your concession
>>736794052NightReign is more intense and faster paced and therefore a superior action RPG. ER is more for exploration and vibes if you're into that
>>736808268Of course it's a Dragon Ligma's fan whining about how Elden KING gaped his shitty franchise
>>736808268>Is Elden Ring's open world dogshit for me? Yes, yes it is.dude can't even write a post without using marvel-speak lmao
OP IS A FACKING FAGGOT
>>736808114no one filtered me other than being disappointed with malenia, consort radahn is also a fight i would consider unsatisfying, i didn't enjoy beating him>>736808137What the fuck are you even going on about? Who the fuck is Queelag? We're talking about Elden Ring>>736808264>the game factually being broken on release is a skill issuelol, okay retard
>>736808268ah so you're a dogmafag, did you have a blast?how's the dlc?
>>736806376Life isn't as long as you think
>>736794052LoP > ER
>>736808189umm please saar mumbai ring very the artful and soulful saar please belieb me saar.
>>736808364Marvel movies are good, unlike Elden Ring, which sucks dick, much like the mothers of its fans.
>>736794052Wow. Rollslop.
>m...marvel movies are good!
>>736808282Still no explanation as to why ER open world is good.
>>736808491Giving people from third world valuable job experience is probably the only good thing to come out of the Souls franchise.
>>736794052Base game drags on for too long, npc storylines are way too hard to find without a guide, open world exploration rewards are a joke aside from vistas and the dlc is pretty damn shit. Would've been a lot better if they trimmed it down and removed the open world.
>>736808507>>736808268>>736807864>dragon's dogma and marvel fan has an opinion on another piece of media
>>736808626Ad. Hominem.
>Ad. Hominem.
>>736808203I agree, sadly ER has both dogshit story and dogshit gameplay
>>736808917Hit me with *one* game with better combat.
>>736808965Elden Ring Nightreign. Nioh 2. Nioh 3. Nioh 1.
>>736809020>Nioh fagTypical. Taken your s h o v e l w a r e wanna be soulslikes and suck em up ur ass

If you mean RPG combat, there's even more.
>>736809020nobody cares about your lootslop niohfag
>>736809237All wrong.>(one of the games that DS ripped off)DS combat is nothing like MH at any level.
>>736794302cyberpunk didn't come out in 2020
>>736809237fromsoft mogged the entire action genre with sekiro
>>736809503>hurr durr fromsoft mog the entire action genre with [simplistic rhythm game]Calls me when I can do crazy parry moves like Revengeance
>>736809673>button mashing and cuhrazy QTEs are hallmarks of good combatI bet you liked Asura's Wrath, dummy
>>736809889>>button mashing and cuhrazy QTEsThat also exist in Sekiro m8, are you trying to criticize your own game here lmao.
>>736809889That guy's a faggot but Asura's Wrath is fantastic fuck off.
>>736810061Sekiro is anime samurai simulator. That weeb bait was the whole point
>>736794052>Elden Ring>Lies of P>Wukong>E33Pretty good gen so far. I don't know if 2026 has had any heavy hitters yet. RE9 is fun but not great and Crimson Desert is for neet retards. Saros might be cool.

Too bad it will bomb on the Snitch
>>736794052>bro what if we took Dark Souls 3, fixed none of its flaws, broke the PVP, broke the co-op, stretched it thin over a massive empty map and then copy pasted every boss 7 times to fill the gaps>good game top kek shit taste m8
>>736794052mogged by crimson desert
>>736794227what's a kiiiiii
>>736798773>>736798869>>736800718The open world is good because I don't have to do any shitty areas to get to better ones. I can go where I want and hit up the good highlights.
>>736809237>juggleslopNeck yourself.
>>736807602When it comes to fantasy, mystery and scope are 90% of the battle, lol. The only disappointing location in the pic was the Rot temple.
>>736806512BOTW has too flat of a map, imo. Games like Elden Ring or Genshin have more interesting maps to traverse because they have the topography of the Swiss Alps. The entire center of Hyrule is almost a plain so there're no obstacles to navigate around to make for interesting traversal. All the good terrain is around the rim.
>>736794052its shit. just empty world cut andpaste garbage.
>>736808019>make things not match the model,Elden Ring has great hitboxes and the few times some bad ones slipped through, they were patched within a week. >inb4 radahnpatched.
>>736812413>bro what if I bitched about a game i never played because someone else likes it
>>736812413>fixes none of its flawsbut anon i can actually chose where to go
