I'd call it "industry plants" or "astroturfed slops".any other idea?
>>737041256qualityslop
>>737041256>popular game = industry plantyou people don't even know what you are talking about. If money and contacts is all it takes to make an industry plant, then games like Concord, which had millions of $$$ on their back, would have been pushed hard and won awards, instead of being known as the biggest blunders in media.A real industry plant is the protagonist of the Horizon games. Forgot her name, but she has plenty of crossovers with other popular games and brands, without the demand to justify it.
>>737041256Chudslop
>>737041298I can dig it
>>737041298But he is right.Theses are games where the creators said " I will make a game that is good and that gamers will buy" instead of something personal with a vision.THIS is the definition of slop
>Two games that absolutely mog the current gaming industry and show how it's done>Hitpieces from the usual journofagsYea i'm noticing
>>737041430What if the game being good and attracting customers is BECAUSE of the vision, though?
>>737041430Every decent game was made by people making the kind of game they would want to play. No good game was ever made solely on what they were guessing other people want to play.
>>737041492is this a reverse psychology post? because your screenshot could be from any medieval slop released in the last 15 years due to the lack of vision/identity
>>737041256Sloppity
>>737041539Ok genius how would you make a game set in a medieval style era with no medieval elements?
>>737041430Congratulations, you have completed your transformation to pretentious art hipster.
>>737041539Prove your assertion.
>>737041256Normalfags are so used to mainstream gaming being absolute shit most of the time that when we get a 7/10 game slighty better than average they lose their fucking minds.
>>737041668I accept your consession
There should be a new genre for OPs. I'd call it "faggot" or "homo"
Remember when they tried to classify E33 as an indie game?
>>737041256industry plant is a term that's been butchered beyond belief, it used to refer to music artists who were promoted as self-made/independent but allegedly had secret label/industry backinghow the fuck does that apply to either of these?
>>737041993E33 was promoted as a AA game with 'indie spirit" by Sandfall, which is misleading because indie means NO PUBLISHER.
>>737042041E33 isn't indie but we need a new definition of indie, if only because technically Steam is a publisher. Should be more about financial and creative control.
>>737042041Copy the plots of other games, copy the gameplay of other games, copy the "Indie" title from other games, copy the pre-made assets... well played, Sandfall. You fooled every moron who likes this game into thinking it's some original masterpiece.
>>737041972I still have no idea what even qualifies as an indie game and what doesn't. Always figured it meant a self published game but apparently not.
>>737042138>Copy the plots of other games, copy the gameplay of other gamesI will never play this slop but this this is basically every video game ever
>>737041256>I don't like, but everyone else does>clearly, this is actually just shilling
making a new bait thread after the last one deleted award
>>737042138What the fuck are you smoking, this is delusional
>>737041972We still remember you keep sperging out trying to go to the mental olympics to redefine what an indie is. Have a (You), faggot
>>737042090>Gamestop is a publisher
>>737042306Oh, here they are >>737042041
I can't speak for Crimson Desert since I've barely paid attention to it, but E33's popularity was basically entirely organic. Beyond the first trailer, there wasn't really much in the way of marketing at all. Initial players (like myself) tried it out of curiosity and were like "holy fuck this is good I gotta spread the word" and told their friends, who then told their other friends, and so-on.Then after a certain critical mass, people like OP latched onto it and started trying to frame the game as having some multi-billion dollar mossad shill campaign behind it or whatever-the-fuck these brain-raped outragesloppers concoct in the hollow cavern that is their skulls.Some people got a little annoying with the praise, sure ("durr finally a real rpg for mature adults with no anime teens!!!!" or "finally the first good jrpg!!!"), but you've just gotta separate the fanbase from the product in that scenario.
what's the difference between having a publisher and having business angels? because 90% of indie games have business angels inject money at some point.
>>737042315Gamestop doesn't handle manufacture and distribution for you. Steam does.
>>737042315Gabe too!!
>>737041256Game first games.
>>737041256> Entire industry pushes left wing games as hard as possible> The games they dislike actually do bestSomehow the establishment is now trying to brand themselves as (((the resistence))) rather than accepting that they are failing at pushing their propaganda.
>>737042354It´s just retarded bait. The term "industry plant" is fucking stupid. Imagine a game, with so much quality (fuck haters), and still sell it at only 50$/€. And these people are so retarded to imply that the industry itself promotes a game that goes against their core "values" (milking your wallet dry, expansions out of the ass. bug-ridden games...)
>>737041256expedition 33 was borderline unplayable dogshit, i dont get the hype around it. did it only get praise because it had non-ugly women in it?is this the only reason?>crimson deserthavent tried it yet.
>>737041256gamelikes
>>737042480Crimson Desert is a left wing game. Expedition 33 is apolitical.
>>737042579I liked it because it was a fun 3 niggas in a row game with an interesting seeing and story
>>737042579>is this the only reason?yes
>>737042646>Crimson Desert is a left wing gameHow? The game even lets you punch women.>imb4 There are niggers in the game!!!
>>737042579>is this the only reason?yes. if the girl wasnt barefoot, nobody would remember e33 even existed.
>>737042579>>737042737>the only thing keeping me playing it is the cute loli girl and the barefoot asian chick>the fights get more and more annoying>bosses with 9 trillion hp, 5000 different fake attack animations>you play the game by pressing the parry button >i fell asleep during a boss fighti decided to just watch r34 of it.
>>737042646It is less left wing than what the media is shilling actively. There are way too many white people and too many pretty women.
>>737042731>>Crimson Desert is a left wing game>How? The game even lets you punch women.Kliff is a hero who does good for the sake of doing good, without ever expecting anything in return. Matter of fact, being selflessly kind is what makes him the chosen hero. Meanwhile the villains almost all follow a power hungry "might makes right" philosophy and believe the strong should subjugate the weak.I think the rejection of the notion that might makes right is the foundation of all leftist thought.
>>737042863who are you quoting?
>>737042908its called "greentext", sweetie, it doesnt mean its a quote. if you have any more questions about 4chan, go ahead and ask. its nice to see new people here.
>>737042903>I think the rejection of the notion that might makes right is the foundation of all leftist thought.Holy shit, that´s retarded. Care to explain to me how all those dictactorships (left or "right" wing) held their power if not by might?>Everything is politicalYou lefties disgust me.

>>737042269>everybody else
>>737043102Yes, it works as intended. They could make a "better" animation themselves, or even buy another set from whatever store they used, but they DECIDED to use that one. Tha´s artistic expression.
>>737043223it's lack of talent.
>>737042957it was never called 'greentext' here dear xitter zoomie, but meme arrows.
>>737041256How th fuck is CD an industry plant when every journo was shitting on it
>>737041853>I accept my transition.And we are so happy for you
E33 should qualify as an indie title. People think it's standard AAA slop and it's not. It's the whole point of them starting their own studio. It is the art game you fags all wanted.
>>737041256Marathon on that list?Maybe Concord too.
>>737043285>(You)
>>737042579wut, you just go forward and dodge/parry enemy attacks...wdym unplayable lol
>>737042383Just because online stores have a lower barrier of entry when compared to physical stores doesn't magically turn them into publishers.
>>737041407ur comparing a product made for money launder to a product shilled to be sold. ofc its different outcomes retard
>>737043285sorry to say but that did not look like that on my PC, and i made this webm myself and obviously it looks worse than the original recording
>>737043449He lacks skill
>>737043502Probably he used the max fake frames and fake resolution possible to make that smearing appear.
>>737043385everyone gave it a free pass because it was le epic korean game actually, if a western studio made another ubislop game it would've been torn to shreds
>>737043502You're not even in the mansion.
>>737041256translation: we're going to use AI, don't worry investors.
>>737041256And entire thread dedicated to seething about games better than the games OP likes lmao CD chads stay winning
>>737043768>you need to be at this SPECIFIC X Y Z COORDS for my narrative to work !!!!!!!!kek
>>737041256None of those characters look appealing
>>737041256>director of <good game> praises <good game> and <good game> for focusing on creativity instead of milking consooomersWhat's the issue here?
>>737043040you just mad u accidentally liked a lefty game lol
>>737043890Neither is what stares back at you when you look in the mirror yet you continue on kek
>>737043574Oh it's just maratroon seethe
>>737041256I will never get over the fact that normiefags lost their shit with E33, treating it as some completely new game genre and some kind of holy grail, when it's basically a JRPG, but with western themed graphics and characters instead of the Japanese anime styled ones.
>>737043881Yes you retard. They used lumen reflections on all the floors and wall materials in well lit area of the mansion and it falls apart because the devs are pathetic retards who didn't realize that UE5 lumen is a poorly coded pile of dogshit.they needed to program their own reflections but they were too fucking lazy.
>>737044039Seething how you write like a faggot and your zoomgroid xitter reaction pic, I assume you are a nu-weeb that discovered jarpigs with Persona 5 and now larp as a gatekeeper when you only have consumed the most bog standard streamlined trash the genre has offered.
>>737044039I'm sure you'll get over it, and that didn't happen at all, nobody was saying that it's some new genre. You made that shit up. It was more like a BG3 scenario where people didn't expect a game of that genre to be so good. Vastly different things. And people liked it because of the story, characters and music not because of the genre. >>737044119look, i genuinely don't care because it worked on my machine :)
>>737044039>never get over the factWhat inspires this pathetic, feminine behavior in “men”?
>>737041256Fun games? Retard.
>>737044202too much time on /v/ likely, not enough time actually playing video games
>>737044202Zoomers talk like that. It's because their parents were the core tumblr/reddit audience. I'm not joking here, all my gen Z coworkers literally talk like obnoxious faggots.
>>737041256>focuses on creativity/details instead of money>butthurt dei trannies call them slopreal braindead take from those who will never be women
>>737043504Understandable.
>>737042903retard
>>737044039E33 has beautiful art and compelling storytelling that does not treat the player like a retarded 12-year-old. Anime is the opposite. It's to art what McDonalds is to food. The same thing happened with Arcane. The French took a concept and made it beautiful.
>>737041407there is demand for her, it's just entirely out of circles seen herealoy is like chisel-jawed white guy for zoomers, an entire generation silently grafted on to her and kept buying her at-least-competent open world games
>>737043391Why are you happy for someone trooning out, retard?inb4 >hurr durr just pretending to be retarded
>>737041256Low-IQ games or normiecore.
>>737044190The effect wont show up unless you move the camera you fucking moron.the glitch occurs in motion and gets worse the move motion there is.
>>737041256>poorly implemented mechanics that are still fun to use and abuse>senseless plot with an occasional cool character that fucks off after 5 minutes>exploitable combat where you must be unfair against equally unfair enemieslast I've checked, this is what we call jankkino, dunno about that gay frog game, though
>>737041256AI games
>>737041430Wrong. The definition of slop (short for “goyslop”) is a low-quality product that is cheap to produce. E33 is a high-quality product that was only cheap to produce because the company is 1% the size of devs like Bungie.
>>737044517>E33>compelling storytellinglmao it completely shits the bed at the end of act 2
>>737043504>>737044407do retards really think that people hate parry slop, because its..... hard?you think its hard to press the parry button when the boss takes a swing?
>>737041298
>>737044039>worst implementation of UE5 in the world>cant see fucking shit, the graphics are all blurry and shitty>combat is the worst in gaming history>its turn based slop mixed with parry slop>the story is about a depressed frenchman smoking a cigarette
>>737041430Slop is definitionally low quality. You don't call good food pigslop.
>>737045485Now you're just making shit up, embarrassing
>>737045776>he never ate gourmet sloppé aud avignonstick to your little cheeseburger, pleb
>>737042354>E33's popularity was basically entirely organiclol
>>737041430E33 has more soul than any American RPG released in a decade.
>>737045485You just never played Legend of Dragoon and that’s okay, Zoomzoom.
>>737043449The mocap carries this game's story hard and I mean that in the best way possible. This clip isn't the best example, but look at some of them, the amount of character and life given to Gustave and Lune by the facial expressions and body language that Maxence and Estelle is absolutely insane. The VA is great too don't get me wrong but those little shrugs of the shoulders or bowing of the head really sell Gustave's character to a crazy extent, and those sweet, charming gazes of fascination when Lune sees something intriguing look exactly like Estelle if you've watched her amd really sell the character's beauty and charisma.
>>737046240Imagine the others...
>>737044039I must've been born about 5 years too early to give a shit about all this weeb vs west drama I remember games before people chose sides then shut their brains offPewdiepie? Markiplier? Guns? Upskirts? Pointy teeth? Screechy Asian women? Means nothing to me. Argue amongst yourselves, you fools, you jackals and jesters, and do your best. I will enjoy your most extravagant displays and perhaps chuckle occasionally at the humdrum discord and disagreement, as you churn amongst yourselves and the other leeches in this bucket. What a spectacle. Truly, something to behold. How your souls have been sucked into this machine and you revel in it. Truthfully... you disgust me.
>>737046324I hate mocapped shit, and the story was broken crap
>>737046450No. You are wrong.
>>737046392E33 was just the second, heavier cock, after BG3.
>>737044039>game has actual characters with personalities, flaws, conflicting motives and believable idiosyncrasies >noooooo you can't like that you have to like these templated archetypes each with the same face differentiated only by hair color!!!!!
>>737041256>indians, non whites and esl's still seething over E33Lmao, why is it every time some deep story comes out tards that can't speak english or appreciate good story telling start seething and shitting their pants?
>>737046625>gay porn dating sim feat. ugly alphabetsnot even a game
>>737046669too bad the game part sucks ballsthen again, I've never liked 4 niggas in a row games
>>737046669the game does a shit job at that, therefore the only discriminating element is the artstyle
>>737046495Objectively I am not, inbred
>>737041298/thread
>>737041430TRVKE
>>737046751I thought the game part was fine, nothing spectacular, but fun.The story falls apart and the characters are a big nothingburger, except few isolated emotionally manipulative moments
>>737046715My frog can’t be this cute!
I'm brown and I liked e33
i like gameplay and interactive worlds, that's why project zomboid is the best video game that exists right now.
>>737046962Zomboid feels like if Blizzard did an engine flip for Diablo in a good way.
>>737041256Eh all games get forgotten eventually. Nobody gives a shit about Mass Effect anymore and that those games were huge when I was a teen.
>>737045920>worst implementation of UE5 in the world>cant see fucking shit, the graphics are all blurry and shitty>combat is the worst in gaming history>its turn based slop mixed with parry slop>the story is about a depressed frenchman smoking a cigarettei dunno man, all this sounds accurate as fuck.
>>737046920Sorry, I'm straight and normal
>>737041430
>>737047084>Sorry, I'm straight and normalhe reassured himself as he posted to 4chan
>>737047084It’s all over now.
>>737044039Persona is actual dogshitI'd never play Persona with Parryslop but I'm glad someone stole their thunder in such a big way by simply making french version of Persona.I love to hate on this game too but it's not because I respect JRPGs to any degree.
The amount of children that flock to a board to talk about videogames despite never playing them is truly staggering. Why perform for the uncs? Were we this performative?
>>737041256>Crimson Desert>creative
>>737041298But neither of them are particularly good.
>>737041256Why dont more devs make original unique games with gameplay noone has ever made before like E33 and Crimson desert.
>>737047383>Hear how 4chan is big bad troll place>Dont lurk>Post extremely hostile shit no matter the topic to try and fit inDownward spiral since the exploding van
>>737044562No, there isn't.
>>737041256Cope & seethe
why are retards so mad about the most kino game in at least 15 years
>>737041972I think it counts. It's a completely new studio with no direct ties to anyone and no real connections either. There are games with way higher budgets that still get called indie.
>>737044039most anime and jrpgs, mangas are written like shit, the pacing is laughable, character arcs are rushed with 0 development and dialogue is unbearableThere's some good anime out there, but it's not as highly rated as some other animu slop because weebs are brainrotted by anime tropes
>>737042190There are publishers like EA that own your studio and tell you what to do and then there are publishers like Kepler which you hire/work together with and if you don't like what they do you walk away. I can kinda see why you'd be okay with the 2nd one as an indie. It's not like the self-publish thing is a good line either, because CDPR and Valve are indie by that standard.
>>737042041My favorite indie titles are Cyberpunk2077 and the Witcher 3.
>>737042138They just made an amazing game, anon. Sorry that they stole the jumping mechanic from Dave the diver or whatever you're schizoing out about.
>>737046764lmao it mogged every JRPG ever made. Deal with it incel
>>737047546>Its parry slop its parry slop!!!>Youre saying this because youtube comments I saw said that!!!Imagine acting like a style of RPG (QTE style execution for moves) is a sudden degeneration in the genre when Mario RPGS have been doing the same thing for DECADES. These kids do not play games, they play games, but they do not play videogames.
>>737042579>borderline unplayableDo you have a disability of some kind?>i dont get the hype around it.I think you need a certain level of life experience to fully appreciate it, but you might just be a bit too dull to get it, so don't worry about it. You're not the target audience and that's okay.
>>737044264holy shit this game looks ass. how is the textures lower res than fucking half life 2? the gameplay, pacing and story is better than almost every jrpg i ever played i just wish it wasnt so fucking ugly honestly
>>737047172you are either here, in some woke cattle cage or out of internet
>>737047721why retards think bad games are kino?
JRPG have always been the most juvenile trash ever created. I played Chrono Trigger few years ago and it was mediocre as hell, compared to someone with a solid CRPG background like me?So even if this game is the best JRPG or whatever it doesn't mean shit to me. Best of of some pile of shit is stills shit sorry. Will never play your slop, now suck my dick.
>>737044039Normalfags don't know about that game because it comes from a small studio that doesn't really reach those people. >treating it as some completely new game genreThat's some retarded nonsense you've dreamed up. People love the game because of the quality of the freshness of its gameplay (reeee that one Mario game 20 years ago had something similar) the quality of it's writing, music and themes.
>>737047756Agree, and so is E33>>737047947Because...?
>>737047721They live in the Fortnite age. Gamers of this age have been twisted.
>>737048075Then why you like these shit games if you have le good taste?Also no good crpg has been made in ages
>>737047993Serious question, no harm intended: why do you zoomers use "ass" instead of "shit". It sounds so fucking nigger-ish to me it's unbearable.Why not use "looks like shit" instead of "looks ass"?
>>737048075So why are you in a thread for ARPGs and JRPGs??? God don’t tell me you feel some notion of authority here lmfao
>>737047721When somebody has completely given up on something and is wallowing in despair he will attack whatever might pull them out of their depression. They thought western studios couldn't produce something this soulful anymore.
>>737048086>) the quality of it's writing,lolthis was unironically where it fell apart hard
>>737047041>Mass Effect Having an extremely unsatisfying end does that to franchises. EA is allegedly still shitting out another ME game, so it's doing alright for something that's "forgotten".
>>737048183>They thought western studios couldn't produce something this soulful anymore.and they still didn't
>>737047721They're defending Japans honor and the AAA games industry
>>737048324two things can be bad at the same time, retard
>>737048261But E33 has some soul/identity even if you don't like it. It's instantly recognizable.
>>737048548Then celebrate when things are good for once, you impotent child. I used to pray for times like this.
>Devs clearly love JRPGs and say their game is an homage to them>Ragebait niggers try to make it japan vs the westReally?
>>737048548Just admi thatt you hate it because it got popular and hating popular things to be different is your identity, faggot
>>737048679They're a fan of boomers JRPG, they don't really like the genre. They are fake JRPG lovers.The creator said he dropped Rebirth because open world is uninteresting to him and he also dropped Metaphor because he said he is tired of the Persona formula.
>>737048758You need my cock huh
>>737048758Oh my God, would you believe it, even in tabletop, old dudes like to play the older versions of RPGs OH MY GOD THE WORLD IS DUCKING ENDING WE ARE ALL GOING TO FUCKING DIEDHJWISBD
>>737047994There's plenty of other places to go, you're just stuck here together like the rest of us.
>>737048758Metaphor is woke garbage and rebirth is a chopped up mutilated game with a shiny layer and actual open world slop added. Both deserve to fail by those things alone
>>737048589All you are saying is "the rest is worse", which is nothingit had something visually unique, until the world becomes emptyit had a promising story, until it completely fell apartit had 2-3 decent (just decent) characters, until they weren't at all>>737048614I'll celebrate when we get something good, and it hasn't happened so far, gayall you are celebrating is the achievement of having no standards whatsover
>>737048680no, I dislike it because it has crippling flaws and hate it because you love it only because it's le hype
>>737048758>Rebirthdogshit game>open world is uninterestinglegitimate>tired of the Persona formula.legitimate
>>737041519This is the exact game design theory Miyamoto worked with for over thirty years. It is in many of Nintendos titles. "They don't know they even want this yet" is common with "auteurs."
>>737048161its just built in rage bait while talking. boomers shit and piss they pants over it lol
I don't really care but I can assure you if Clair Obscur came our from Squeenix or Niggtendo the board would suck its dick to no end.
>>737048908Compared to when I had to rely on Square strictly for decent console RPG releases and if they dropped FFVIII, X, XI, XII, XIII (why did XIII have good sequels???), well fuck you and begging for ports, yeah I’d take this any fucking day of the week, easily. You fucking kids do not understand.
>>737048965I love it because I played it and it was really good. Stop making your personality about consuming media. Disconnect from the Internet for at least an hour before bed and an hour after waking up Can you do that?
>>737049168and people who now like it would hate it
>>737041256BG3, Elden Shit, E33, Witcher 3, CP 2077, Crimson Desert, all astroturfed trash, even more disgusting than Ubislop games
>>737049238And I played it and and hat crippling flaws, then I had to hear retards like you getting comically mad about people who don't fellate your hype products existingDisconnect from internet period, troon
>>737048908Sure it might not be absolutely perfect, but it's still really fuckin good BIT H
>>737049253Nigger if a game is good, it is good, BG3 was begrudgingly celebrated on this board, because it was UNDENIABLE. Picrel is how it did against a vastly more popular IP in the same genre and a genre veteran.
>>737041256"Games people actually like"
>>737049286>>737049353Name 3 games that you like.Can you do that?
>>737041256not a single good game there
>>737041256>games get praised for being games instead of scamsWow, such an amazing achievement. Incredible.
>>737048589Yjk Maelle is gonna fuck that bourgeon
>>737041256my idea is you should take your meds
>>737041298Crimson Desert is not quality come on
>>737043102These are stock/UE market animations, right? I swear this game has the same animations as Only Up.
>>737049394BG3 is mediocre as all fuck.
>>737049712I’m so thankful fags like you got filtered because you do not deserve the gem of this games evil route coupled with Durge.
>>737049543In this day an age, sadly it is
>>737049703yes, the whole game is absolutely littered with AI gen and UE marketplace slop. It drives me fucking insane that people somehow can't see it.
>>737049703The game even has a zone dedicated to it
>>737049915>the whole game is absolutely littered with AI genPlease, post them
>>737049893Only if you're a normalfag who doesn't actually play video games and only follows what's trending on twatter (the marketing platform for scams). Or just own a PS5 and have no choice but to play only scams.

Like the game makes low level DnD fun, do you know how much ass low level DnD is? The game is better than what it is adapting, that is a Kubrick’s Shining level of execution, minus a shitty novel coddling an alcoholics delusions that sacrificing his life would ever repair the damage he did to his family and would only free HIM.

>>737049915>people somehow can't see iPeople can see it and nobody cares. You get a game of AAA scope but designed to be as fun as possible without any of the typical AAA bloat, microtransactions DEI or always online bullshit, made by a small enough studio to maintain a clear vision and costing half the price of your an average AAA game to purchase. Nobody cares that they cut some corners using the asset store for climbing animations or the texture of some cliff face. Nobody gives a single shit.If your preference is that only AAA makes big games now with all their token bloat and that small devs stick to low ambition roguelike deckbuilders then you do you I guess.
>>737051918>DA LEFTITS OUT TO GET ME!!!!!!!You have nothing other than it doesn’t affirm you enough, and that’s fine.

>>737041256Crimson Desert is nowhere near as bad as E33 was. E33 had 20+ concurrent threads 24/7, and you no one even talks about the game, they just call everyone brown. Whereas the catalogue is not literally flooded with Crimson Desert spam. I can tune the Crimson Desert threads out, to the point that I think I've only even seen 1 or 2 of them, while the E33 spam was so bad that I started keeping track of how many threads there were only to find out that it had 20+ concurrent threads 24/7 for a month, and then all the threads mysteriously vanished overnight beginning June 1st, so that by June 2nd there were only 2 threads left. Every single person in the entire world all suddenly decided to stop talking about E33 on June 1st of last year. I hope I got the point across. I didn't play Crimson Desert, but if E33 is an "industry plant", which is pretty much is, then Crimson Desert is a guy who is still applying for the job, maybe with a reference from a friend. That's how vastly different it is. They're not even in the same universe in terms of being undeservedly shilled, because I didn't even notice that Crimson Desert was being shilled.

>>737053616I won, because I'm White and I'm able to notice 1) that E33 was just a "mid" 7/10 game, and 2) that there were 20+ concurrent threads on that catalogue which mysteriously ended beginning June 1st. I also haven't even noticed the Crimson Desert shilling, because whatever it may be, it's not even 1/100th of the shilling that E33 received.
>>737054138nobody sane is reading all that troon babble. you lost and got fucking bent over and raped. it's time to move on.
>>737054138>Straight up lyingThe best lies are ones mixed with a bit of truth, you suck at this rupdeeb

>>737054138Correct
>>737054138>I'm white and *insert terminally online schizo mindbreak babble over a video game here*lollmao
>>737041993>how the fuck does that apply to either of these?E33 was promoted as a small team of 33 indie devs when in actuality it had the backing, not only of a very large studio, but also daddy's venture capitalist firm, the French government itself, and China.
>>737054472the industry promotes great $50 games made by all White dev teams with no MTX that contain no niggers or faggots in the party?sounds to me like we won, anon! what the fuck are you doing, lets celebrate!
>>737054138I’m not playing your fucking Korean Witcher clone blow your fucking head off.
>>737054603I actually think it's more "single player, offline BDO" considering it's the BDO people, but I wouldn't know, because I haven't played it and I have zero interest in playing it. I'm just telling you that, objectively, *if* Crimson Desert is being shilled, it is not even 1/100th of how much E33 got shilled.
if you don't enjoy both of these games you are a FAGGOT
>>737054687true and jeet repellent pilled
>>737054601The mental damage that the BG3 and E33 award runs did is immeasurable. You’d think the president died or something.
>>737054869please refrain from mentioning literally tranny faggotslop in the same sentence as pure KINO such as Expedition 33, thank you!
>>737054672I literally can recall weeks of this board being crowded by people using Crimson Desert as a benchmark for Marathons failure, getting plenty of gas before release. My lived experience > your’s
Reminder that E33 does have brown people, and it also has cuckoldry, and one of the shoehorned romance options is used goods to the extreme. The other romance option is brown-adjacent. Any everyone in the game is ugly.
>>737055047look, there's no easy way for me to tell you this, but you are brown. you are not White.
>>737054941Immeasurable, incalculable, never ending and unfathomable damage.
>>737055021Right, Marathon *was* being shilled, back before the plagiarism debacle and right before release, and because it was getting shilled (and because Concord is the new TORtanic) people were clowning on it. I don't understand what this has to do with Crimson Desert. People were clowning on Marathon.
>>737054687Based and true
>>737055108I am White though. And as a White person, I genuinely think that anyone who sucks E33 cock without being able to acknowledge the true reality of it being an industry plant is quite clearly not White themselves, no matter how much they type that they are on 4chan. But once again, this thing you're doing right now is proving my original post in this thread correct. No one talks about E33. All anyone says about it is "you're brown" unless you say it's a 10/10 masterpiece, the greatest video game of all time, which it just isn't. It's not a 10/10 and it's not even close to the greatest video game of all time.
>>737055321no one is reading all that you raped faggot.
>>737055345If you can't read anything that's barely even longer than a Tweet, you're brown. That's just the way it is.
>If you can't read anything that's barely even longer than a Tweet, you're brown. That's just the way it is.
>>737055153If I see your game is the primary subject of a steam charts thread, you are shilled.
>>737054138>here's a claim that i'll call you a schizo for asking me to support in any waywhy did e33 mindbreak anons like this one so hard, guys?
>>737041256e33 and crimson desert are totally different games, no comparable in any way shape of form.e33 is a pure soul, 10/10 game.crimson desert is your average souless bugslop with a massive map. creativity my ass. faggot director.
>>737054587>not only of a very large studiowhich studio?> daddy's venture capitalist firm,proofs?> the French government itselfthey give grants to all french games>Chinagave money to kepler who published dozens of games
>>737055478Look, guy, I already told you Crimson Desert is not "my" game. I've never played it and I have zero interest in playing it. I'm just telling you that Marathon threads were about shitting on Marathon, they weren't about Crimson Desert. How do I know? Because I loved shitting on Marathon and not a single person ever said anything about Crimson Desert in those threads. Is Crimson Desert also being shilled? Possibly. However, if Crimson Desert is being shilled, it's not even 1/100th of how much E33 got shilled, because I haven't even noticed it. >>737055542I'm only telling you the truth.
>>737055593refer to >>737054687you made it 50% of the way there anon but you have failed. you are shitting on a game you haven't played like a melanated subhuman. absolutely fucking pathetic.
>>737055629can you support your claim that it's true in any way?
>>737055693I'm sure (You) could go back in the archives and view the sheer quantity of E33 threads, but you'd have a hard time piecing together how many of them were concurrently active. (You) will also notice a very steep dropoff in the number of E33 threads created beginning June 1st of last year. Because that's what happened.
>>737055629I’m not even gonna go to the archives for a screenshot, I’m just gonna call you a liar and a shill.
>>737055790>(You) will also notice a very steep dropoff in the number of E33 threads created beginning June 1st of last year.no (You) wont because there were a handful of seethe threads EVERY SINGLE DAY at least until 2026. there are still seethe threads every day just not as many.
>>737055790>any proof?>no, go prove my argument for methanks
>>737055684not playing your souless game gook.
>>737055804I accept your concession. >and a shillI'm not shilling anything. I'm telling the truth about a the most shilled game of all time, no contest. >>737055814>no (You) wont because there were a handful of seethe threads EVERY SINGLE DAY at least until 2026Yes, (You) will notice a massive drop off in the number of E33 threads being created after June 1st of last year, because prior to that there were 20+ concurrent E33 threads going 24/7, and after that there are barely any. Maybe 1-2, sometimes zero. >>737055895The proof is there if (You) wish to search for it. But you don't. You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make him drink. You can show a shill the truth, but you can't make him believe.
>>737056000Your insistence that Crimson Desert shilling wasn’t that bad is literally enough, please find a new thread now, your are too loose.
>>737041430I don't want to play a personal vision. I want to play a videogame that I will enjoy.>>737042090Anon, Steam is not a publisher. Steam is a digital distributor. Publishers are not defined as selling your game. Publishers fund developers and have an impact on their development process. E33 had a company that funded them and had rights to control their development. That is why they are not indie. They had a de-facto publisher.>>737042383Steam does not manufacture your games, either. You're really showing that it is you who misunderstands what "indie" means. Also, Gamestop does actually handle distribution, since you give them the games and they send them to their stores and sell them where they can maximize profits.
>>737055629The CR threads were actually really quiet for an upcoming AAA and aside from retards seething about the imaginary shills there wasn't much going on. I am pretty sure that the majority of posts were literally those autists arguing with people just wanting to talk about the game.E33 on the other hand is literally the game of a freemason's nepobaby made un unreal and looked like shit. I didn't notice any of the threads because my interest level, like yours, was zero. But I can imagine the astroturfing.
>>737056000E33 detractors are the most buckbroken and raped faggots in the history of /v/
>>737041298That post is peak posting.I mean, peakslop
>>737041430yep. unfun garbage full of microtransactions and committee design is honest about being a soulless cash grab. these kinds of games meanwhile exploit your trust by taking your money in exchange for a good product you can actually have fun with. extremely scummy.
>>737056000>The proof is thereprove it, you literally cannot do so.
>>737056171this. imagine letting frogs and gooks trick you into having good old fashioned genuine fun. how much of a retard would you have to be?
>>737041647If you read any medieval literature you'd realize that medieval stories and reality are entirely different. It's ridiculous and retarded to have 80% brown "muh realism" instead of shit that makes Skyrim seem a historical documentary in comparison. Lord of the rings is perhaps the only good example of a story that managed to capture medieval creativity.. partially. 300 is perhaps the best example of how to do it, but it isn't a game.
>>737042579>Filtered by an easy and polished game Even the side content was easy unless you did it grossly underleveled
I don't know what it is, but I always put it in the "do not play" list.
>>737056000>most shilled game of all timeWrong, neither of this games had the backing of the actual U.S. military industrial complex like CoD does, nor a Sony or Microsoft media campaign, they cannot afford to pay off every single reviewer in the industry like Bungie can. E33 had little none of the benefits that established veteran studios have, and it still blew out your fucking overmarketed garbage.
>>737056320> Lord of the rings is perhaps the only good example of a story that managed to capture medieval creativity.>300 is perhaps the best example of [anything]nigger what?
>>737056036>Your insistence that Crimson Desert shilling wasn’t that bad is literally enoughI'm just telling you the truth, anon. That's all this is. E33 shilling filling the entire catalogue for a month straight and then miraculously ended, cold turkey beginning June 1st. And people are still saying "you're brown" as the only conversation about the game. That's not even in the same universe as whatever shilling for Crimson Desert that might be taking place, which I honestly haven't even noticed because there aren't 20+ concurrent threads about it in the catalogue 24/7. And the threads you listed which you believe were Crimson Desert threads were actually Marathon shitpost threads, so I don't think we're even living in the same reality. And once again, I have zero interest in Crimson Desert. I haven't played it and I never will. I just also haven't noticed the shilling for it. It's not even 1/100th as bad as E33's shilling was. >>737056118It was a 7/10 game that became the most shilled game of all time, the very definition of "industry plant" (see: >>737054587), and the shills pretend not to see it for some reason. >>737056108Yeah, see? This guy knows what is truly happening. This guy lives in actual reality. I can't personally vouch one way or the other about what's going on inside Crimson Desert threads, all I can say is that the "shilling", if it is even happening, is not bad enough for me to even have noticed that it's happening. Like, maybe there are 1 or 2 Crimson Desert threads here, I literally haven't even noticed them, so to hear Crimson Desert shilling be compared anywhere near E33 shilling is ludicrous to me, because Crimson Desert shilling is not even 1/100th as bad as E33 shilling was. >I am pretty sure that the majority of posts were literally those autists arguing with people just wanting to talk about the game.That would make sense, the E33 "fanbase" on 4chan is rabid. Easily the worst fanbase in all of vidya and it hasn't even been a year
>>737056398you're not arguing with a sane individual anon, you're talking to someone who literally has to tell himself E33 had a shill campaign in order to even get to sleep at night.
>>737056445If he actually read and wasn’t illiterate, he could have just said that the story would be adapted for a modern era but have classical trappings like a modern adaptation of Othello, but no, he’a retarded.
>>737056485>filling the entire catalogue for a month straight and then miraculously ended, cold turkey beginning June 1st.but you haven't supported this claim at all>go look it upisn't supporting a claim.
>>737042863It's the opposite. The more you progress the more shit gets deleted because you get more and more tools to break the game. The stuff you can't beat legitimately reasonably is all optional and you can come back an hour later to one shot them. Arguably the bigger issue is how OP you can get. When I pay again I just won't use maelle for instance, but the others are not that far behind.
>>737056485NO ONE IS READING THAT LMAOpost e33 playtime or tie the fucking noose, tendie.
>>737056398>WrongYou're totally right. It has 20+ concurrent threads on /v/ 24/7, which ended very abruptly on June 1st, and it won every single video game award ever, including Indie, while having a budget in excess of $10 million dollars, with the backing of China, the French government, daddy's venture capitalist firm, and multiple studios that the work was outsourced to, and the *only* conversation surrounding E33 this entire time has been "you're brown", no one ever says anything about the game, and this all happened completely organically.

>>737056485People were calling me webm guy or something because of all the webms I made(alongside others of course) and spammed, while talking about the game. I was in most of the threads since I'm a NEET who was really looking forward to the game since I liked BDO's art design(bought it just for that, played for maybe like 15 hours, and quit since it was an MMO).I noticed literally zero marketing. Most of the posters hadn't even heard of the game until January and you can see that reflected in the stocks kek. I'd love to know what their marketing budget was because they did a shit job at marketing which is based since it sold pretty well anyway.

I'm just a straight White male ("boomer") who has played JRPGs for his entire life, and E33 is a 7/10 game, nothing remarkable. I pirated the game and I deleted it long ago, but here is my save file: https://files.catbox.moe/y2v3ud.sav>>737056627I'm only telling the truth. Anyone getting mad at me is upset because *they* are getting "blown out">>737056696I'm just telling the truth and describing things that happened. I don't understand why you're getting upset about it. >>737056748Some people are upset by the truth. It is what it is. >>737056782True, but it was really bad for that first month when 4chan came back up. And the 20+ concurrent threads 24/7 ended abruptly on June 1st, as if it was a contract. >>737056795Thank you for noticing. I am indeed right, and I am only telling the truth. It's impossible to even begin to comprehend how or why people are going haywire about nothing but the truth. >>737056918>I noticed literally zero marketing.Yeah, me neither. I'm not saying it's not happening, I just didn't notice it, and because I didn't notice it that makes it nowhere near even 1/100th of the shilling that E33 had. That one guy who was upset about Crimson Desert was describing Marathon shitpost threads, so I don't even think he knows why he's upset, he just knows he's upset.
>>737057047>tomorrowthat's awful generous, anon
>>737057025/v/ loved e33, but the number of schizos a game gets is proportional to how popular it is, so it just has some people who've been seething about it every day for a year, whereas the fans moved on because it's a single player narrative game and has been discussed to death. can't speak for crimson desert because i didn't play it or check out the threads.
>>737056951You're a cuck to freemasons, you disgust me.
>>737056983>and then calling everyone indian or discord raiders?Yup. That's every thread related to E33.

Pre-covid /v/ would've enjoyed E33 for what it isSomething happened here
>>737058134
>>737057838based>>737058134/v/ would've been blown away by e33 any year because its presentation (music, story, visuals) are amazing. The gameplay is too easy and betrays that it's the studio's first game. A year later, it's still one of my favorite games but I'm comfortable admitting that objectively, it's like an 8/10 game, with your personal preference elevating it or downgrading it a couple of points. you probably think being here "pre-covid" is some oldfag checkpoint, like the other election tourists.
>>737058134as a representative of old /v/ you're probably right because /v/ has shit taste but nu/v/ loves that game you gay faggotpeople would taste would never like fr*nch unreal engine shit though
>>737041298Crimson Desert is an asset flip and every review is "I slogged through 4 hours of bullshit for one interesting cutscene or set piece"
E33 won goty for a reason. CD nust has a strong marketing campaign and will be forgotten. In fact I'd argue it already has considering it is dipping below 100k players nlw.
>>737058347>>737058351you both lost and got fucking raped why are you STILL running your fucking cocksuckers? mental illness on full display.
It's called white.
>>737058134As soon as it was well received by the general audience and won some awards, it was destined to be hated by /v/.
>>737058134Pre-covid /v/ loved Playstation, made fun of Nintendo, hated GAAS games, didn't play gacha, and was happy to spend $60 on a brand new AAA game.
>>737057838Good man. I still think E33 is overrrated.
>>737052404Your reasoning is backwards and it's weird that you see it this way. It isn't the amount but rather the pattern of engagement that sticks out to me. I don't automatically assume something is astroturfed the more it gets talked about. Expedition 33 was released with limited fanfare, hype built up gradually after people started playing it and then rapidly snowballed. I would very much expect to see a normal distribution peaking some time a few weeks after launch if you were to map out the total mentions of Expedition 33 on this board. Crimson Desert was the opposite - multiple bump limit threads per day talking about the unreleased game which nobody here had played yet, and rapidly fell off once it was released. You can have your own opinion about which of those patterns seems legitimate vs artificial but the answer feels obvious to me. I'm not saying CD is shilled either for what it's worth, not with any degree of confidence at least, but if I had to pick one that's where I'd lean.

Imsim fag coming in just to say that you're missing out on real kino dessert. See pic related.

>>7370581342006 here. It's alright to enjoy E33. /v/ fucking loved E33... a suspicious amount. That's the issue. It's the most astroturfed and shilled game of all time. All anyone says about it is "you're brown". Nothing about E33's reception is organic, which is a shame because I think it could have stood on its own merits as a niche Mario RPG clone, but instead it became an industry plant game with far too much positive press for how niche and mid it is.
>>737044039Knowledge of gaming history is in the shitter, but it means that any fucking moron could pick up a PS2 game and copy it wholesale and not get called out for it.

>>737041256flockjobs
>>737058505>Your reasoning is backwardsIt's not. >Expedition 33 was released with limited fanfare, hype built up gradually after people started playing it and then rapidly snowballedNo, 4chan was down and it took a small little while for the bots to recalibrate or whatever, and all of June was massive shilldom, and beginning June 1st is abruptly stopped. >Crimson Desert was the opposite - multiple bump limit threads per day talking about the unreleased game which nobody here had played yet, and rapidly fell off once it was released. Sure. I just didn't notice any Crimson Desert shilling at all, which means that it was not even 1/100th of the shilling that E33 got. >You can have your own opinion about which of those patterns seems legitimate vs artificial It's more than that. I've never in my entire life seen 20+ concurrent threads 24/7 for the same one video game until E33 came along. It's the most shilled video game of all time, by a mile. By several miles, even. So it's just strange to me to see E33's shilling compared to Crimson Desert's shilling, when I didn't notice that Crimson Desert shilling was even happening.
>>737059215YLAGR LMAO
the damage these frogs did to brown psyches on /v/ needs to be studied.
>>737059070>the western video game industry now promotesI will remind the audience that it's clearly a masonic game and we don't know what sort of connections were leveraged behind the scenes.

>>737059553>>I didn't notice so that means my perception is factIf there are only 1 or 2 or maybe even 3 Crimson Desert threads that are easily ignorable, that still pales in comparison to the 20+ concurrent threads that E33 had 24/7 for an entire month. They are not even in the same universe in terms of being shilled.
can someone explain why E33 detractors are too low iq to read roman numerals?
/v/ liked E33 before it got popular.
>>737059689because they are indians

>>737059709Even I like E33. It was just a 7/10. It wasn't a 10/10, and there should be more conversation surrounding the game than just "you're brown", but the shills did irreparable damage to the conversation of their own game and E33's entire legacy is as some weird sort of culture war pawn that brown people use when larping as white people. It didn't need to be any of this. It could have just been "that pretty decent western JRPG that gets recommended to people who like JRPGs", but no, what it actually became is "the single greatest game of all time, or else you're brown"
>>737059808rule of cool, anon
>>737059000fucking lmao, maybe born in 2006. That I believeThis just screams "it became too mainstream so I got suspicious and now I hate it; I wish it was more obscure so I could have more s-sophisticated taste..."
>>737059808maellefriend no one has argued about this for months, let it go
There should be a new name for brownoid ShazamtroonsI'd call it "seething browns" or "can't afford consoles or a PC that can run games so this is their game substitute: bitching and crying".any other idea?
>>737059925>maybe born in 2006Nope, been on 4chan since 2006. >This just screams "it became too mainstream so I got suspicious and now I hate it; I wish it was more obscure so I could have more s-sophisticated taste..."That's a lot of projection, anon. I just miss that first week or two after 4chan came back online, when you could actually discuss this game. Now you can't say anything about it and the entire conversation for the past year has been "you're brown" and that's it. When the shills are so rabid that it destroys actual conversation, there is a problem. It didn't need to be like this. I've said multiple times I think that the game could have stood on its own merits as a pretty decent Mario RPG clone, but that's just not what became of it. It turned into a massively shilled culture war pawn, nothing else.
>>737059925the real problem imo is that mainstream is hard to discuss critically>all criticism will be drowned out by casuals who just want you to consume uncritically, as any criticism assumes you think the game is badBasically, casuals ruin anything>people with their JUST ENJOY IT>people with their MUH I HAVE A LIFE NOW LET ME WAGESLAVE>muh just a game bro folksall trash who have mouths and should not speak but still feel the need to be heard
>>737060143>When the shills are so rabidnice revisionism but the antishills made it this way.
>>737060143>Mario RPG cloneholy fucking kek the tendoid outs itself. post bathroom scale with a timestamp IMMEDIATELY.
>>737059689>FFVIII vs FFXIII>shit vs dookieThank God there are more RPG devs than Square now, holy fuck.
>>737060309>nice revisionism but the antishills made it this way.Not revisionism, anon. Like I said, you could actually talk about this game for the first week or two after 4chan came back online. Then the shills arrived, and you couldn't say ANYTHING about the game unless you were deepthroating its cock and begging for its cum. And now we're to a point where all you retards say is "you're brown", that is literally the entire conversation surrounding E33 and that's what the conversation surrounding E33 has been for the past year. Testament that E33 is nothing but an industry plant. It got too shilled, the most shilled game of all time, and now the lowest common denominators are carrying the shill's torch, because their entire marketing strategy was to call anyone talking about the game "brown"
>>737060143Games other than Mario RPGs have had QTE shit on moves.
>>737060472>buckbroken and raped babbleyea im not reading that
>>737041430Congratulations, you have arrived at schizophrenia.
>>737041256Why is complimenting other games when news?
>>737060365>holy fucking kek the tendoid outs itselfYou already tried this, anon. See: >>737058505I'm not a Tendie. The last Nintendo product I owned was a Wii. >>737060491Right, but (Paper) Mario RPGs have both the parry and the QTE. Most games have one or the other. There's also games like Sea of Stars but that's extremely new in the grand scheme of things so I didn't bother mentioning it. It's most closely a Mario RPG clone. But once again, you're just proving that E33fags are just rabid seethers, trying to nitpick every single little thing, even when someone says they liked the game.
>>737060653Because you are being pedantic and patronizing, lmfao, don’t be surprised when you are completely repulsive.
>>737060957I'm not being pedantic nor am I being patronizing. If anything, the person being pedantic is nitpicking that I chose to call E33 a Mario RPG clone (because it is).
>>737060653>i liked the game but it's a problem for me that other people liked it too
e33trannies got raped and lost
>>737061070That's not what anyone said. It's a huge problem that E33's legacy is "you're brown". It could have been known as a decent """indie""" JRPG, but instead it became known as the biggest industry plant and most artificially shilled and astroturfed video game of all time, by a very wide margin, whose entire online discourse consists of "you're brown". And it was the paid shills who made it this way, because for the first week or two, before the paid shills and bots and whatever discovered that 4chan was back up, White people could actually talk about the good and bad parts of the game with each other.
>>737059215>I just didn't notice any Crimson Desert shilling at allYou didn't notice it because it was short lived and over as soon as anyone actually played the game. You couldn't miss the Expedition 33 hype because it went on for weeks and months after it was released because people played it, liked it, liked it, talked about it and then more people played it.
>>737061049>>737061049>it’s a 7/10>but it’s a clone>I’m not being patronizing!!!You talk like a prison bitch.
>>737061317Well, no, it definitely has more to do with the sheer level of shilldom, of which no game has ever been shilled as hard as E33 in the entire history of gaming, but I know you're an E33fag, so you're never going to hear the truth.
>>737061294nah nobody's going to remember bitchfits on /v/, ask any fan of the game and they won't mention any of the shit you're crying about when they talk about their memory of the game. Which should please you, since you "liked" it :)
>e33trannies got raped and lost
>>737061431>>it’s a 7/10True. >>but it’s a cloneAlso true, in the way that people colloquially use the term "clone" in video game conversation. >>I’m not being patronizing!!!Also true. I can't understand why you're seething. >>737061451>ask any fan of the gameI haven't met any. I don't think there are any. The only people who exist that talk about E33 use it as a culture war pawn and they either say "you're brown" and nothing else, or they use it to shit on Square Enix. That's all E33 is to *anyone* who might call themselves a fan of it.
>>737061669>i liked this game, it's a 7/10>it also has no fans
>>737061669>That's all E33 is to *anyone* who might call themselves a fan of it.it is literally THE highest user scored game OF ALL FUCKING TIME. if you think that's because people hate Square Enix you are the most vantablack shitskin on the face of the fucking planet
>>737061669You are being a pedantic gap toothed prison bitch with backhanded praise. You can’t even be honest about a game you clearly think is bad because you are afraid of getting clowned on for it, you are literally gaped.
no one argue with me on this>8-10/10 are personal preference scores>1-7 are general audience scores>a 7/10 is the best a game can be, the absolute bog standard full price game that is 100% worth its value and a general audience success>but an 8/10-10/10 for me is guaranteed to be boring as shit for someone out theretherefore x33 is in fact a deserved GOTYbut it is so insufferably bad for ME in some parts that i dont know how anyone can argue that it isnt a 7/10
>>737061669Please never stop performing for me.
>>737062091he never will, anon. it's going to get tastier and tastier for us as the years go on.
>>737043496>the biggest blunder of the decade was a "money laundering operation"anon, c'mon.
>>737062072no game is liked by everyone. i understand your point even if your numbers are arbitrary.
The E33 hate wouldn't be so bad if E33 defenders weren't so easy to bait.
>>737042903Conservatives have always given more to charity within the same systems as leftists.Leftism has no correlation with altruism, just narcissism.You could essentially say leftism is a sort of moral parasitism. The leftist offers nothing directly, but by advocating for other people to give he manages to satisfy his moral obligation at no genuine cost to himself.This of course ignores the fact that in the vast majority of these cases the leftist are not just not among the benefactors in question, but are themselves among the benefactors of the purported redistribution and are in fact engaging in competition for the resources.Truly the most slimy and disgusting of Allah's creations. I remember when that "meatsweat chud" guy got stabbed and all his "friends" started gofundmes, not to help with funeral costs but just in the hopes of profiting off of the situation.Regarding leftists and might makes right, leftists are the only fucks dumb enough to think it's a belief that must be "adhered to" rather than an objective statement, a universal law as with supply and demand and other such things they think they can legislate out of existence.
Alright, E33 drones, I think I'm done. I don't want to be doing this all day. You got brainwashed one way or the other, and that's who you're always gonna be. You are unwilling to see truth and accept it for what it is. >>737061802>>i liked this game, it's a 7/10Yup. I was actually talking about the game before the shills happened. I liked it. It was decent. >>it also has no fansNot on 4chan. Haven't met any in real life either. On 4chan it has drones. It has retards who made it so that the only E33 conversation is "you're brown". That's this entire thread. That's ever thread with E33 involved. >>737061904>it is literally THE highest user scored game OF ALL FUCKING TIMEIt is indeed the most artificially shilled game of all time. That is absolutely true. >if you think that's because people hate Square Enix I'm sure that E33 being the single most shilled game of all time has *something* to do with people hating Square Enix, but I don't think that's the only thing involved. There's also it being a culture war pawn, hence the entire conversation surrounding this game devolving to nothing other than "you're brown". There's also, of course, the money and the perception. E33 had a movie deal before it even released. Totally normal for an Indie game with no connections at all and only 33 people working on it, right? Gotta keep up appearances for the long con. >you are the most vantablack shitskin on the face of the fucking planetYou're doing it again. You guys keep proving every single thing I've said. Also I'm White. Incredibly pale, too. Extremely White. >>737062057>You are being a pedanticNo, the guy nitpicking about Mario RPG as if it's some sort of "gotcha" is being pedantic. I'm just telling the truth. >You can’t even be honest about a game you clearly think is bad I thought it was a decent 7/10. I've said this multiple times. It could have stood on its own merits as a niche title, but that's not where we are now. That ship has sailed.
>>737062072Nothing you said is incorrect. I liked E33, it is better than 99% of games in 2025, but I don't think it's the greatest game of all time, and it was certainly shilled very hard.
>>737062289>but I don't think it's the greatest game of all timeshow me where anyone said this itt. because i'm the Broche spammer and i still don't claim it's the greatest game of all time.
>>737062267Among the Beneficiaries*Whoopsiedoodle
>multi hour full thread melty with included wizard dickInsane bread
>>737062072It's not a 10/10 on any scale.
>>737050981>GOTDOh get the fuck outta here.
>>737062412Go home, Todd, the adults are talking. You’re TOO SHORT for this table, little man.
>>737062272the conversation around the game doesn't change the quality of the game, your admittance that that's what happened for you only displays that you're a retard. i think the undertale/deltarune fanbase is annoying as fuck but I have no judgment on the games as I haven't played them.
Small reminder, BG3 has more players than FO4 and Starfield combined as I speak.
>>737043102for me i cant get over the fact that every character has bobblehead tier porportions.
>>737062624>the conversation around the game doesn't change the quality of the gameRight. It's a 7/10. If I were to grade E33 based on the conversation around the game (which is literally only "you're brown"), then it'd be a 2/10.
>>737062449>ToddWrong guess, nigger, try again
>>737062725the game was discussed to death over the first few months because it's a short single player story based rpg. the conversation became "you're brown" because people made threads seething about it every day once the actual discussion died out and "you're brown" clearly pissed off said seethers, as it still pisses you off. try being a less easily baited schizo and discussions that cause you to melt down won't become so widespread. you say you haven't talked to anyone in real life about this game but it sounds like you simply don't talk to anyone in real life at all.
>>737062714That's such a weird thing to get hung up about. Are there any other stylistic choices that irk you? What if the eyes are slightly larger or arm/leg proportions are out of wack? Does it set off some uncanny valley effect?
>>737062781I’m not buying Skyrim, again, I’m sorry!
>>737062351>show me where anyone said this ittNTAdefinitely not in this thread but ive been kicked from some social circles for literally saying "i think it deserved its GOTY at the VGAs, but the story was trash"there are literally people who will cut off contact over the idea that it didnt deserve a full sweep at the geoff keighley show
>>737062894The "you're brown" conversation began 1 or 2 weeks after its release. Your revisionism is wrong. >as it still pisses you offThat's the wrong characterization. It's more like seeing a decent 7/10 girl ruin herself by covering her body in tattoos and getting all kinds of piercings and turning ghetto and getting into rap music and turning into a literal whore.
>>737063173what possesses an individual to type like such a smug cunt despite the fact he got RAPED AND BRUTALLY FUCKING EVISCERATED?
>>737063226I'm just telling you the truth. That's all this has ever been.
