What causes this phenomenon?Unironically not trying to troll here, why PS games are all these over-the-shoulder pretentious movie games? Like is there actually demand for these or are they easy to market?
>>741899192Last of Us was a big success
>>741899192Blame KojimaI'm serious.Basically when MGS1 was made, it was a 'movie in.. video game'. MGS2 and around 80% of it was focus on 'cinema' and a few bits of the new physics involved. Also Kojima claimed Snake was the main character the player plays as despite being in a 30 minute section.MGS3 was even worse. MGS4 was more movie than fucking gameplaySo now you know.MGS was one of the big reasons to get a Playstation 3 after launch since the ps3 launch was so bad like ps4 and ps5
>>741899571this trend has way more to do with the success of Naughty Dog's games than anything Kojima did
extreme retardation & getting off on huffing their own stinky fartspicrel
Sony is a music and movie company.
>>741899192They're always fishing for industry awards.
>>741899192I wouldn't mind if these weren't praised for the storytelling. They have basic shallow plots about something vague and meaningless and people act like it's comparable to high cinema.
>>741899761You're joking, right?You do realize MGS4 was a system seller?
>>741899571>>741900605I would say Half-Life is responsible for the rise of movie games, especially HL2 since that game doubled down on the unskippable walking sequences of the first.
>>741899348fpbp.Like Doom clones of the 90s and the JRPG glut of the 00s, everyone just chases was sold well without understanding why it sold well or if it could even be replicated.
I like them. There's good movie games and bad ones. Good ones actually have fun gameplay, which all of the games in OP have.
Each time I tried this game I despised the gameplay so much I couldn’t make it further than 2 hours, the camera is meant for shooters, not melee
>>741901140Sounds like a skill issue, anon.
>>741901348Kratos felt weak as shit. I’m playing a game called GOD OF WAR, why the fuck does it take 8 hits to kill ONE beginner area enemy? Enemies that don’t even bleed, btw. The combat is fucking boring to me and I can see where the franchise is headed so why the fuck should even bother with their bullshit games?
>>741900746Anon, MGS1 literally had 'stop, listen, this is a conversation' forced fucking codec calls in the game as in literally 'press select open your codec since you're shit as shit not allowed to do anything else' while walking around
>>741899192half life, no jokeevery single game copied it afterwards. it was a linear gritty movie game with scripted cutscenes
It's supposed to be cinematic apparently, which I don't really get. Fixed camera angles would be a lot more like a movie.
