Why are the only kinds of stories this guy can tell Nietzschean vagueposting slop? I'd rather just rescue a princess than hear about how I'm the chosen one and everyone else is dead or crazy again.
fag
>>744701102I'm explicitly saying I'd prefer for the stories to be more heterosexual.
Do you not know how business works? They have a hit so they have to keep milking it. Once it fails he'll write something new.
IIRC he claimed that his writing for Demon's and the first Dark game were inspired by him trying to read Western fantasy novels as a child and not really understanding anything beyond the names of things, so he was left to fantasize in his imagination about who Sir Roderick is and what the Holy Grail could possibly be or whatever. That's why the story for them is basically mad libs fantasy edition.
>>744698998Sekiro story wasn't vagueposting.
>>744702308Namely LoTR and Fighting Fantasy books
>>744698998NOOOOO, ANON, YOU MUST SUBVERT AND DECONSTRUCT EVERYTHING REEE!!!
>>744698998I agree. Being vague and morally grey is fine now and then, but having it for every game gets tiresome after a while. Sometimes it's just fun to be a hero
story fags are lame. story should be in the background and be easy to ignore, as a high IQ gamer, if i want a story i read a book. give me my action gameplay session and dont interrupt me with your story, you arent shakespear
There are thousands of story-focused games out there. What compels you to play a series of games known for having obtuse, out-of-the-way stories and complain about it?
>>744704921>story should be in the background and be easy to ignoreSure, Zelda does this just fine without Nietzschean vagueposting.>>744705873I think the gameplay is mostly pretty good.
I never read his stuff as very Nietzschean. More as buddhist.>Everything is a cycle, man.
>>744698998Cool, don't play his fucking games then. Why do we have to listen to you failing to pick a fucking game you like? Faggot
>>744706683>ZeldaOh you're a tendie child. This thread is over
>>744702308Got a source on that? Sounds funny. >>744709258Complaining about complainers makes you sound worse than them.
>>744709376>Um actually you're worse than a insufferable nigher shitting up the board with his narcissistic bitching Shit the fuck up you ratty cucked faggot
>>744709429You can spell out nigger you know. The police won't skin you for it. If you're going to insult me do it right.
>>744704361And it's so damn boring and genericVague is better
>>744698998He's a one-trick pony, man.>play ER for the first time>GRRM is involved, so expect the game finally to have a normal story>and at first it really seems that way>Ranni's side quest is the clearest and straight forward quest FromSoft ever made>defeat Margitt>the way to Erd Tree is closed by some vines, wait, what?>I need to go to the Mountaintops of Giants to burn Melina?>Farum Azula? >Maliketh is the same guy who was eating death roots? >why the fuck the all-knowing guy is trying to kill me? >Horah Loux? >suddenly remember all those characters I've met in Limgraves and never saw again>because I missed meeting them in some retarded obscure locations along the game>Miquella's kidnapping has zero sense>Malenia motivation is a mystery>follow through missed character side quests>they all end with characters dying retardedly, just like in that copypasta that was making fun out FromSoft games>even Melicent's story ends with a wet fart, despite her being one of the most promising characters in the gameER went from a 11 out 10 to garbage, once the realization hit
Bump
The stories were always ai generated slop that peaked at Dark Souls 1. I have never understood how people love this kind of storytelling past the initial novelty factor. It was clear past a certain point that they stopped giving a shit and were playing "Write 50%, the retarded obsessed autists will fill in the rest for you". The Souls series has hit a critical mass where the fanbase will make up ANYTHINGYou know how easy it is to cope around everything? Do you remember when Elden Ring released and Kenneth Haight was just standing there repeating questlines and the mindbroken populace of the fanbase unironically thought that this was a statement about sometimes life ending in jackshit happening. The game was just bugged. Don't think I forgot about that bullshit where lore """masters""" called the Elden Ring DLC boss a shitty mod. Nah that shit was real then they glazed it
>>744713191I remember watching some 1.5 hours long essay about the order of perfumers in ER, thinking what an inane fucking bullshit the storytelling in this game is.That essay made a lot of sense, I give it that.
>>744698998No one in this thread has played his best game. Change that.
>>74471443103-AALIAYH my GOAT
>>744698998CATER TO ME CATER TO ME CATER TO MEyou are a subhuman
I'm pretty sure half the threads here are people who play one vidya so fucking much they start hating it.
>>744713191This is not a phenomenon exclusive to Souls. Retards can and will read too much into every comma if they can.That's the magic and curse of vagueposting. Dark Souls just applied that to a whole video game format.
